[Update] Added themes back to free VIP repo set up load balancing still waiting RAM some of you might face some issues still but most issues are resolved please keep problems to this thread.
[Update] Repo might be down over next few days just having some issues with them at the moment.
[Update] As a temporary solution I have move all the themes over to the VIP repo you should see some improvements now for a while also with VIP from as litltle as $1 now is the best time to join. The new servers are on order will keep you informed


Hi all

Hope you have all jailbroken your devices now. As you can see we are having lots of problems with the repo server. Basically what is happening is there are sooo many downloads that we are hitting the upper limit on bandwidth we are pushing more than 1 TB out per day. We would push out more but its not possible with the current setup. So today I am reaching out to everyone to see if they can help us with donations. We have two choices each has its pros and cons.

  • First choice would be to get more bandwidth but this is expensive at just over 600 EURO per month + what we already pay for forum server total will be about 800 EURO
  • Second choice would be to get some extra servers this is the cheaper option we can get servers for about 120 EURO a server + one off costs for upgrades or aim is to maybe have 4 servers altogether or something similar to that. This setup means more work on our part to setup and test and maintain. But we are ready to do this.

The only thing we need is donations to cover the next few months of server costs so we know its feasible to upgrade either of these options. The minimum we need a month for the cheapest option is approx 500 EURO (676.9 USD) + the ram upgrades etc but if we can cover the next 3 months costs then I will go for this option. If you are all feeling generous and hit the 800 EURO mark for the next 4-6 months I will go for the first option as the results will be much better.

You can help xSellize by donating here.

Thanks for everyone that donates. If you can't donate then maybe you can have a look at some of the adverts on the site. Hopefully in the next few weeks we should have enough to start the process to making xSellize even better.

Hey Admin, I really like this repo, unfortunately I can't donate as I don't have a bank/PayPal account, but I've just clicked on a bunch of ads. Hope you'll get those new servers!

I wish my paypal account wasn't limited... I'd donated everything I had, which was ~$300!

Long live xSellize! Fix the servers asap, just restored my iPhone, need a theme for christs sake :3

Every person with a Verizon IPhone that I help Jailbreak, I tell them to come here and donate $5 and get the VIP Repo. I have 2 iPhones and 2 IPods and have VIP's on them all. Once you have VIP, you won't settle for less. I know you dropped it to $1 minimum to get all you can but, $5 should be the minimum. You get so much for so little.

Without you guys, and Iphone would just be an Android. Thank you for everything you do. I agree with Abbym. I think it should have stayed at $5. You can get 1 theme to cover that price. You want to be surround by people who will continue to support you as some of us have done. I donated $86 the first time before the VIP was a one and done. i have donated $5 more since then. If someone give $1 and becomes a Lifetime VIP, they will not be one of the ones that will be here in the future when you need them. We all appreciate everything you do. You have helped Iphone become who they are today. They may talk in public of how you hurt but they know you have helped them sell phones. We just need an app to Overclock the Iphone safely without multiple steps.

Could you not restrict site access to members only while it is struggling?
At the time of writing this i am 1 of 11 online members but there are 140 visitors.
Then when you get the new servers change it back?
