Hidden function in your sony ericsson (The best way to check any sony ericsson mobile phone)

I've bought Sony Ericsson W660i last year. It has been near one year I have been using this phone. This is the best choice of hand phone that available at that time. With RM 450.00, you can get a 3g phone, 2.0 Megapixel camera, Quality audio(It is sony walkman), Mp3 and 512 Mb memory stick. It was the last year price. With 3g function, I also can use the Google maps function in my phone (I'm going to review it next time).

Last few days, I've discovered the hidden function in my sony ericsson. This function is also applicable with other sony ericsson model. This is the 7 step to see the hidden function in your sony ericsson:

1) Right

2) *

3) Left

4) Left

5) *

6) Left

7) *

After you have complete the step, the hidden function will appear. You will see 4 hidden function which is:

1) Service Info (model info, software info, sim lock, configuration)

2) Service Setting (USB charging function)

3) Service Tests (main display, LED/illumination, keyboard, speaker, earphone, microphone, vibrator, camera, video call camera, memory stick, fm radio, real time clock, total call time, security)

4) Text Labels

The 3rd function which is Service Test function enable you to check your sony ericsson mobile phone if there is any problem with it especially before you want to buy the 2nd hand mobile phone. This Youtube can explain to you clearly the steps.

I love Sony Ericsson.

Opera 10 with turbo

The new Opera 10.0 with turbo is available now. Opera Turbo uses compression technology that provides significant improvements in browsing speeds over limited-bandwidth connections, for example, when using a crowded Wi-Fi in a cafe or browsing through your mobile phone while commuting.

You can enable the turbo function by clicking on the icon at the bottom left on the Opera Browser. From what I experienced after using the turbo function, it is more faster surfing using it but the image quality that you get when you used the turbo function is reduced. For fast surfing experience, I recommended using Opera 10.0 with turbo function.

I also state in my previous post that opera has no private session function just like Firefox. Actually, Opera also has a similar function just like that. The function is "Delete Private Data".

In Firefox, you have to click the "private session" function you begin the private session where Firefox will not remember your username and password. On the other hand, you can delete your username and password information after private session by clicking on the "Delete private data" on Opera.

For the information on the other features in Opera, you can visit this page: http://www.opera.com/browser/features/

Opera Internet Browser

What is internet browser? Internet browser is one of the internet application that enable us to view internet website. You should be clear that there are many internet application besides internet browser such as Chatting Application (Yahoo messenger, MSN messenger), File transfer protocol (ftp), Voice over Internet Phone (VoIP) and others. However, the internet application that is important to use the internet service is internet browser.

There are a lot of internet browser such as Internet explorer, Mozilla Firefox, and Google Chrome. Internet browser that I usually used is Mozilla firefox. However, Opera is my second internet browser and sometimes I'm more comfortable using Opera than Mozilla Firefox.

There is three reasons why I used opera:

1) Speed Dial in Opera

This function made me easier to manage my website that i have to visit everyday. Just click at one of the box, then it will direct you to your desired website.

2) "Duplicate Tab" function

The duplicate tab enable me to duplicate the existing tab and the tab will have the same history as the original tab. I usually use this function when i'm online shopping or using the search engine.

3) View file transfer in another tab

Opera view the file transfer in another tab which is more easier and manageable compare to Mozilla Firefox which a pop-up windows will appear during the downloading task.

Opera also has widget that enable user to customize their browser (similar to "add-on" function in firefox). However, there is still one function is not available compared to the Mozilla Firefox which is "private browsing" function. Hope Opera will add this function for the next version. The latest release for Opera is "Opera 10.0 with turbo". It is totally free and you can download it in Opera official website: http://www.opera.com

Try it! You will love it...

P/s : I'm going to review the Opera 10.0 with turbo in my next post

Do you have a problem with your windows that suddenly show the Blue Screen?

Do you have a problem with your windows that suddenly show the Blue Screen? The Blue screen is called as Blue Screen of Death (also known as a stop error, BSoD, bluescreen, or Blue Screen of Doom) is a colloquialism used for the error screen displayed by some operating systems, most notably Microsoft Windows, after encountering a critical system error which can cause the system to shut down to prevent damage.The example of BSoD is like below:

According to Microsoft, bluescreens on Windows9x systems are usually caused incompatible DLLs or bugs in the kernel of the operating system. They can also be caused by physical faults such as faulty memory, power supplies, overheating of computer components, or hardware running beyond its specification limits. What is the solution if you want to prevent the Blue Screen of Death appear on your computer?

You need to install this recommended software called BlueScreenView (BSV). BSV opens, displays, and interprets the data saved in minidump (*.dmp) files which are usually found in C:\Windows\Minidump after a BSOD. You must have Windows set to save a "small memory dump" which may be done in for My Computer\Properties\Advanced\Startup and Recovery\Settings in XP for instance. In XP, this is generally the default behavior.

This little utility has found a home in my toolkit. I don't see as many BSODs as I used to, but when I do, BlueScreenView makes it a snap to see the dump info. Stay stable, my friends.

The BlueScreenView software is totally free and you can download it by clicking this link:

Online Storage for you

Image source:www.flickr.com/photos/cl0udberry/6726185/

I'm a student who has a lot of assignment and thesis to be completed. Of course we are going to use computer to complete all of the assignment and thesis. I wonder if anyone is still using typewriter nowadays to complete their work. The risk using computer is your file is infected with virus or corrupted. So, we need to backup our important work unless you are hardworking enough to start your work from zero.

What I did to backup my file is using the other storage other than the hard disk in my computer? Here is some suggestion:

1. Using thumdrive/flashdrive
It is really cheap nowadays, a few years back, my first 128 Mb thumbdrive cost me about RM98. Today, 2 Gb thumbdrive only cost you RM20.

2. Using DVD-R
You can store your file permanently up to 4.7Gb using one blank DVD-R.

3. Using e-mail storage
I have many email accounts and I always attach my important work to my another email.

4. Using Free Online Storage
There are many online storage available. One of them that I used is http://www.freedrive.com



You can get 1 Gb online storage using the freedrive.com. What makes me want to use freedrive.com is because it is user friendly and you can categorize your file to private, group or public. You can share your file is you save your file in group and public category.
