TLDR; #SONUS will be taken off of BigBoss as soon as possible and I will put up the last version I had with all translations that are in by now for free and I will most likely discontinue working on it - everyone who bought the tweak will be refunded.

Yes, I am still using parts of InstaVolume by @Wizages code and it's his right to decide that I have to make the tweak free again since my work derivates from his. This is true, I built Sonus from InstaVolume and I still use parts of it on my tweak and the general concept of it. I didn't know better. I should've gotten in touch with @Wizages again and ask him for permission. This was completely my mistake. Everyone who bought Sonus on BigBoss will hopefully get their money back. I am in talk with @0ptimo about this. Him or I will let you know as soon as possible.

To make it look like I ripped of everything and stole code just to make a quick buck however is too much for me. Since I am talking with @Wizages directly and know he doesn't think I just stole his code and or ripped him off - so at least that's a good thing. Because I never intended to make him upset as he was the one who helped me originally even building Sonus. It took me a lot of time and effort to come this far and make Sonus what it is now but I'm not going to spend more time on this project anymore - I just can't. I hope who ever reads this will understand.

I'm really sorry about this outcome. I apologize to @Wizages about using his code and wanting to sell it even though he originally stated that it needs to remain free. And I deeply apologize to all the people who supported me and bought tweak on day one. I especially want to thank and apologize to @clivelethbridge who donated so much and is such a great person in general. You made me continue working on this since the first days.

I am really sorry. But this whole thing was too much for me. I will put up the latest version of Sonus I have on my repo shortly and as disappointed I am myself about this, discontinue this project. I may or not be coming back from this, but I right now don't think I will.

For anyone who feels betrayed by me and wants their donation back, I have set up an email address donation@fwdr.org. Please send me an message from the email address associated with PayPal including the PayPal transaction ID and I will refund it via PayPal. Please do so and don't send chargebacks with false claims.

Also, please do not send any hate to either @Wizages or @0ptimo. It was my fault.

Once again, I am really sorry for all this drama I caused.

I'm out.
