The links for the roms aren't working :-(

Edit: my bad, the main link is ok,  just a bit slow. the mirror is broken however.

Unfortunately 6 months on and the main site is still being hammered to death, lots and lots of dead links to files that I removed due to exessive traffic, mostly from people posting 'how to unblock your SF' and directly linking to my site... at one point last year I burnt through 200GB in 3 days..

It's part of the reason I'm running two sites now, I started the process of migrating to a better host, but I never finished that, lazy-ness claims another victim!

I've just flown back in from Europe and I got a TEXT alert from my provider for the mirror site that it had died just as I was getting on my flight, so I was not able to do that much about it, its back up now tho (I hope)

Any new version coming soon? Thanks

I've been talking to some guys about porting CM7 to the device,  if they manage that, as we found out on the Blade that is the death of customized ROMS and everyone just migrates to CM7

Not had a lot of time for anything of late between work, moving house and travel.. hopefully things will settle down soon and I'll re-visit this... tho the new Alcatel OT-990 will be out soon, not to mention the ZTE devices.... who knows

Another Very Similar device if the Orange Stockholm it is a u8180, the same Qualcomm 528MHz but has a 3.2mp camera instead. Maybe CWM can be ported to it?

Is it? All the apps apart from SuperOneClick said they probably don't work anymore and as I knew nothing about Android I went for the one that inspired at least a small piece of confidence.

Yeh i rooted mine with z4root!
