It seems as most folks come here looking for a rom,i imagine if like me people spend a lot of time reading these rom posts only to find the download links give 404 errors,can this be fixed or at least delete the usless threads that lead to this and save everyone wasting there time on this crud.

@m3vuv you posted this in the Galaxy S5 Snapdragon Development section, but your post does not qualify for development, per the XDA Development Policy.

I have moved this to the Galaxy S5 General section.

In the future, please ensure you post in the appropriate section:
15. Keep threads / posts on-topic

Whilst a minor amount of off-topic posting may be overlooked, the general rule is that your posts / threads must be relevant to the Forum / thread in which you are posting.
  • General Forums - For news and announcements relating to your device.
  • Q&A Help & Troubleshooting Forums - For all question / request threads and posts. If there is no Q&A Help & Troubleshooting forum, use the General Forum of the relevant device
  • Accessories Forum - For posts related to accessories relevant to the device
  • Development Forums (ones with the word development in the title) - For Developers to post release threads e.g. ROMs and Kernels including modifications to kernels, bootloaders, ROMs, etc., as well as R&D development discussion threads designed with an end goal
  • Themes and Apps Forums - For the posting of Themes and / or Apps as well as announcements & discussions including modifications made to Themes and Apps.
As far as your statement goes, this is a very old device, and a lot of the development projects have been abandoned. Many file hosts remove files that don't see traffic after a certain amount of time. If the developer is still active, you can post in that thread notifying them that the link is broken, but don't expect it to get fixed.
