Thanks, I put into looking at what the cwm is, tell just now. Where that clockworkmod I just posted on my forum and sdx. As said in both of those threads which is where you nabbed the clockworkmod it says:
Want to post this elsewhere or doesn't support your phone?
Do not re-upload elsewhere, I pay for hosting for a reason. So if you want to post elsewhere, post the original link as credit.
Then for the download links use mine or just use the link to this thread.
If your phone isn't supported, post or pm me.


All you did is renamed the file for some really unknown reason, as it has the same md5sum as my last posted hero s clockworkmod.
Code:
home@home-EP45-UD3R ~ $ md5sum '/home/home/Downloads/CWM    PH44IMG.zip' 
986c2580ca9029e5596bde7e635225cc  /home/home/Downloads/CWM    PH44IMG.zip
home@home-EP45-UD3R ~ $ md5sum '/home/home/Clockworkmod Builds/Kingdom/5.0.2.8/BigHeroS-PH44IMG.zip' 
986c2580ca9029e5596bde7e635225cc  /home/home/Clockworkmod Builds/Kingdom/5.0.2.8/BigHeroS-PH44IMG.zip

With that said I wanted more testers for the new build, hence the reason posted. Where it has issue not said in the op, where it will cause issues for others. With that said I would kindly like if you removed the link due to issues. Along with the lines of you didn't ask to post elsewhere (Support in mind), You reuploaded it for some unknown reason, then not a mention of who you nabbed it from. Thanks
