Donate if you like my work :

Currently I have to collect the money for my Internet Package and my tution fees myself.I'm finding it hard to keep this internet connection as I get very less amount of money per month. So maybe in future I can't get the net connection and so won't be able to share any of my future CFWs'. Sad
So if you're satisfied with my Custom Firmware and have some extra pennies to spend then please donate any amount of money you like. Smiley
It'll help me getting the money for Net Package and Tution fees and for improving the CFW further.Any help will be much appreciated. Smiley
