Recently I’ve been often asked to help with unlock codes for different smartphones. Mostly those are Samsung Focus, that’s because I owe this one and write a lot about them. I’m tired of searching a good codes seller on ebay and waiting for his response. So I’ve signed a contract with one of the biggest codes provider and became their reseller. Now I can offer an unlock code for almost every model of any operator worldwide. And 2 weeks ago I’ve got a way to make even your iPhone 3G/3Gs/4/4S factory-unlocked, forever and without any jailbreaks and GeveySim.
To make an order you’ll need to provide me your phones model, IMEI number (just dial *#06#) and name of operator whom your phone is locked to.
These are the most popular unlock codes, but you can contact me for the one, which is not on the list:
AT&T-locked smartphones unlock code (feats Samsung Focus and other modern models) – $5

Раскрыть тему...Two years ago, in the very beginning of Windows Phone OS, LG announced an interesting smartphone – Optimus 7. And DLNA support was one of a few features that gave korean phone a little advantage amoung another models on the market. Using PlayTo application Optimus 7 users could use their phone like a DLNA-player and stream Photos, Music and even HD Video to DLNA-enabled TV’s through WiFi, in two taps and without any difficult configuration.
And now Nokia shows us their Play To application with fairly the same functionality, and it was immediately setup on my Samsung Focus with custom fully-unlocked firmware.
Select your TV in the Connection menu.
Choose an item to stream.
This is how a small, not a full-resolution photo looks like.

Everything work flawless, fast and easy. Just like the Windows Phone 7 OS itself.

Раскрыть тему...In addition to my last “search of alternatives to the iOS-apps for WP7″ story.
Two weeks ago I’ve installed “Clear” list-manager for my wifes iPhone. I fell in love with its well-designed and intuitive UI and felt short of an app like that on my WP7 phone.
You can imagine my surprise when I’ve accidentally found even more clear app for list management on WP7 devices with an appropriate “Clearer” name, and fully copied design and UI mechanics from the original iOS app. Read more for review…
Application copies it’s noble brother in everything, including gestures, even including ones that are absolutely useless in WP7. For example, pinching your fingers takes you from the contents of selected list to the screen where all your lists are. iPhone needed this gesture, it just doesn’t have a hardware “Back” button, but any WP7 smartphone has one, and you’ll never pinch your fingers instead of just tapping “Back” button. But, this is the only negative thing about this app I’ve found.
Starting the app takes you to the list screen. Push any of them down, and you’ll create new list.
Pinching out in the middle of list creates a new one between the items you already had. Free demo-version is limited to have only one list and will remind you about that on every application close.
You can move items to the right to mark them as “Complete”, and to the left to delete it. You can change the colour of every list you have and even choose the background image for them. “Clearer” shows all your unempty lists names and items count on it’s Live Tile.
I recommend.

Often we want to share the moment with friend or just save it for ourselves to revive it in future. I used a beautiful Instagram app on my iPhone. It is a very easy and convenient to use camera app with built-in photo editor that can apply awsome filters and add stylish borders to your images. Moreover, Instagram connects people in a social network, its popularity increases with astonishing speed, and has lead to $1B acquisition deal with Facebook. Today, there is no official Instagram client app for WP7. Android version is already released, and we were promised to get official client too, but nobody knows when.
Russian developers noticed an empty niche just in time and released an app functionally similar to Instagram, but with extended publishing compatible with Weibo and Vkontakte. Read more to find review…
I read a blog of one girl from Minsk (Belorussia) living in Vancouver (Canada), link to the blog. Marina works in a company specialized on Oracle products – databases and Java-applications.
Marina periodically mentions a good job offers from her company. I decided to assume job in their office an evacuation option in case my own business will give me unplanned vacation. At this moment I know nothing about Oracle databases or Java, so I looked for appropriate learning classes with a possibility to pass Oracle exams. I looked for them not only in Ukraine, but also in Canada, to check the difference in prices. I’d go into this classes in Canada, but the difference in price is significant. Moreover, IT certificates from Microsoft, Oracle, Cisco and others are international.
You have certainly read about Mountain Lion everywhere on the internet, so I will not stop on DP1 features itself. Today I’ll show you how to install OS X 10.7, 10.8 DP1 or DP2. This instruction assumes you are advanced PC user, but even newbies can try it. I used my own Dell Vostro 3350 as an example.
This laptop is pretty much the same with 2011th Apple MacBook Pro 13″, and 5200 result in GeekBench is best evidence (MacBook makes 5500-6000). Comparement :
Never the less, you can use another laptop (or even desktop PC) based on the lates Intel CPU and compatible videocard, but you can have trouble making some components run (Ethernet, WiFi, Bluetooth, etc). Despite ерthe availability of different Hardware Compatibility Lists (HCL), most of them are outdated and useless, so you’ll need to try everything yourself.
Where to setup?
You’ll need to create a separate partition for Mac OS installation. I don’t see any sense in describing this procedure, because if this is difficult for you, then you’ll stuck on the next, harder steps. You’ll need to create Primary partition not less then 15Gb, you can use Paragon Hard Disk Manager 11 for it or any other partitioning tool, even free one. Also, you need to check your laptop BIOS version. Just press F2 on boot and look for the BIOS Version on screen – in can be А05 or А07. Also you’ll a USB-mouse if the trackpad will fail to start on first boot.
What to setup?
Restoring a prepared image of Mac OS partition is the easiest way. You can grab DP1 here, you’ll also find R-Drive application inside. UPDATE: Here you can find DP2 image.
How to setup?
Unpack downloaded ISO image. Install R-Drive in Windows and Transmac, you can get it here.
Restoring image with R-Drive:
- Run R-Drive
- Press Restore from image
- Choose osxlion.arc
- Choose a Primary partition prepared earlier
- Set the Make partition active flag if it’s available
- Even if you have created a 50Gb partition, it’ll be shrank to 15Gb during the process, we will resize it later
Now your computer can boot into Mac OS X. But don’t hurry to restart, we need to apply all need changes for our laptop model and resize Mac OS partition if needed. I warn you, my DSDT file fits ONLY Dell Vostro 3350 without a discrete video, if you have a Core i5 model with Radeon graphics please search for the DSDT on the internet, you can try looking here (need registration and google translate from russian). Desktop PC’s and laptops from another manufacturers owners can search for advice on specialized forums. If you have the same model as I do, or it’s younger brother Dell Vostro V131 be free to download my Extra and Extensions folder from here and follow the next steps.
Replacing an Extra folder on Mac OS partition from Windows using TransMac
- Run Transmac
- Change access mode for Mac partitions from Read Only to Read/Write in settings
- Choose your hard drive in the left column and then a partition named kozel (not my naming :) )
- Remove Extra folder in partitions root and drag my Extra downloaded earlier instead
- Don’t touch Extensions for now
Reboot, wait, celebrate the first Mac OS boot.
Now left-click on the Mac OS desktop, press Finder in the upper menu, choose Settings, Show on the Desktop, set the “Hard drives” flag, on the “Side panel” tab, find “Hard drives” flag, remove and set it again. Now you can see our kozel partiton on your desktop. You can rename it from here.
Go to System/Library/Extensions and remove these files:
- AppleACPIPlatform
- AppleHDA
- AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement (only if you use Core i3-2310 2,1Ghz)
- ApplePS2Controller
- IO80211Family
- NullCPUPowerManagement (only if you use i3-2310 2,1Ghz)
- SmartBatteryManager
Copy all the filess from my Extensions folder instead of the deleted ones. You can’t use my AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement if your CPU is not Intel Core i3-2310m, try using a special patcher from here. If it’s too complicated for you, don’t remove the NullCPUPowerManagement file, sleep function and CPU power management won’t work but you’ll still be able to use Mac OS. You’ll get many error windows after the files are copied – just ignore that or press OK to dismiss. Run Kext Utility (white cube icon in the Dock) and restart.
You’ll have all components orking after restart, but Bluetooth and a couple of blue USB3.0 ports on the left panel. Bluetooth works after rebooting from Windows without powering off, USB3.0 can be started with a Lacie USB3.0 driver but it can lead to freezes and glitches, so I don’t recommend that. Just use a $10 USB-hub plugged in your eSATA/USB2.0 port on the right panel, if you need more then one USB port.
How can I resize Mac partition?
Download Paragon Hard Disk Manager 11 – link is in the beginning of this post. Install it in Windows. Run. Right-click on Mac OS partition, choose Verify File System, then Move/Resize and make desires changes.
How can I restore Windows booting?
After all the steps you have nearly perfect working Mac OS, but you can’t boot to Windows 7 because of an error. Fixable. Just boot from Windows 7 boot DVD or USB-flash, Select language, but don’t press Next yet. Press Shift+F10, enter “diskpart” in command line and follow the next steps:
- select disk 0 – select hard drive
- list partition – look for windows partition number
- select partition 1 – select Windows partiton, enter your partiton number instead of 1
- active
- exit
Close the command line windows, press “System Restore” in the lower left corner, you will be prompted to fix errors and reboot, press OK. Now you Windows OS works again but Mac OS boot menu is lost. Fixable.
Again, boot from Windows 7 boot DVD or USB-flash, Select language, but don’t press Next yet. Press Shift+F10, enter “diskpart” in command line and follow the next steps:
- select disk 0
- list partition – look for Mac OS partiton number
- select partition 2 – select Mac OS partiton, enter your number instead of 2 if needed
- active
- exit
- close all windows, laptop will reboot
Now you have working boot menu, and both – Mac OS and Windows 7 are bootable.
Advice regarding Mac OS
The first annoying thing you’ll see is Bluetooth Assistant popping-up on every boot. Run this two command in Terminal to get rid of it:
- sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth BluetoothAutoSeekPointingDevice -bool NO
- sudo defaults write /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth BluetoothAutoSeekKeyboard -bool NO
Install NTFS-3G for Lion, from here to have a Write access to NTFS partitions.
Setup Brightness app from AppStore to get the brightness control.
Apple removed Safari and Mail RSS reader in Mac OS 10.8 DP1 – just setup Cappuccino from AppStore if you like reading RSS.
