Nokia X6 – User Review

Nokia X6 – User Review

 After using the Nokia X6 for past 2months below are my list of pros and cons of the phone. It’s a full touch screen phone from Nokia with good memory and multimedia features which include camera and music quality which also are pretty nice.The overall reviews are pretty nice apart from the operating system which is a bit outdated if you compare it to android OS. The display also is not that great but it does have have a dual LED flash.

Nokia X6 - Pros: 

• 5mp cam with dual led flash .The quality of picture and video is nice.
• Dual stereo speakers (nice audio), It comes with 3.5mmjack
• Huge internal memory (8 GB, 16 GB, 32 GB)
• Comes with free lifetime navigation license and 1yr unlimited music download.

Nokia X6 - Cons:

• Outdated OS(Symbian) but u can get plenty of 3rd party apps for this OS and processor speed (434 MHz) which is quite less as compared to other present phones in that range.

Overall it’s a nice multimedia smart phone

Android 2,2 Foryo Updates For Samsung Galaxy

Updating Samsung Galaxy to Android 2.2 Foryo

  
I think Samsung galaxy models are  coming with the Foryo updates only. If you are not rooting the device and if you are having the device as the factory settings then there is software called Kies which will be given with all Samsung Android sets such as Galaxy s, Galaxy 3. Using that you can update the firmware. 




 

The steps to update are:

1) Go to the Samsung website (samsungmobiles.in) in which if you go to the footer of the home page there you can see downloads/updates.
2) Click on that it will land into the download and update page.
3) Then you need to select the model to which the firm ware need to be updated (all the model will be listed there).
4) Connect your mobile using Samsung Kies and update the firmware. 


These should be the steps as it definitely works for Galaxy 3(tried and tested). Also you can check with the Samsung CC(customer care) in case you are having difficulty in upgrading.

Samsung wave 8500 - User Review 2

Samsung Wave 8500  - User Review 2

 
You will not get the AMOLED version now, the new version has Super LCD....
So there is not much for 17k except maybe the 1 GHz processor...

If you talk about the operating system BADA is not developed as much as Android or Symbian...also not much dev on them so few apps (or none)

Also a lot of better options are available at this price point.... (Not if u want only BADA OS)
Below are the few options:
• HTC wildfire-Android, 5MP Cam, nice phone.
• X10 mini pro- Android, QWERTY, but small screen.
• Nokia X6-capacitive touch, good music, OVI.

P.S: Bada OS as a requirement...this should definitely be a first choice.

Hacking the Sony PSP 3000 or 3004(v5.03) - Installing Custom Firmware

Hacking the Sony PSP 3000 or 3004(v5.03) - Installing Custom Firmware-Loading ChickHenR2 And MHU

Firstly, the question arises what is the need of hacking a PSP. The answer is simple, if you have a modded or hacked PSP then one can easily download any PSP games from internet and run it easily without buying the costly UMD’s. After hacking the PSP, one can play .iso games, .cso games and homebrews. Homebrews are the software’s which are made specifically for running on a PSP that has the custom firmware. 

Here are some terms related to PSP:

XMB: Cross Menu Bar
OFW: Official Firm Ware
CFW: Custom Firm Ware

Before starting the hacking process the prerequisite is that the OFW of the PSP (3000 or 3004) should be equal to or less than v5.03. If the OFW is less than 5.03 then you can download the updates or upgrade the version to 5.03.If the OFW is more than 5.03 then sorry this procedure will not work for your PSP.

(Note: Before starting the process please ensure that the version of PSP is 5.03)

Things you need for installing CFW:
1. A PSP having version 5.03 or less.
2. Two files:-
A) ChickHenR2 folder.
B) CFW Enabler360 folder.
3. A system to transfer the files to PSP and vice versa.
4. This tutorial to execute the hacking process successfully.

Now the Hacking process consists of two parts-

Part 1- Loading the CHickHenR2

1. Download the ChickHenR2 folder.
2. Download the Custom Firm Ware folder named CFW Enabler360.
3. Format the memory card.
4. Go to System settings->Restore default settings.
5. Plug in the PSP and copy the h.bin file from ChickHenR2 folder to the root directory of PSP. Now go to ChickHenR2 folder - > Slim - > ChickHen and copy this ChickHen folder to Picture folder of PSP.
6. Remove the data cable and in the PSP go to Images ->memory stick press X. Now after the thumbnail of the ChickHen appears press X, some flashing will be there and your PSP will restart. It will not work if you press X before the thumbnail appears. There is a chance that you may not succeed in one try so try 3-4 times until you see the flashing.
7. ChickHen will be loaded successfully; you can go to System Setting->System Information and verify the same.

Flashing should take place like shown in the image below :

So now as the ChickHen is loaded, the custom firmware can be loaded.

Part 2 - Loading the Custom Firmware CFW enabler

1. Plug in the PSP. Go to CFW Enabler360->Game->CFW Enabler in the downloaded folder.
2. Copy the above CFW Enabler folder to PSP -> Game.
3. Remove the data cable, and in the PSP go to Game->Memory stick Press X. One icon will appear named CFW Enabler Press X. The PSP will restart now and installation takes place.
4. After restarting the PSP, go to System Setting->System Information there you can see 5.03MHU. This confirms that the CFW has been successfully loaded.

Now after loading both the things the PSP is successfully hacked.
Just put the .iso or .cso games in the memory card and enjoy the games. Also many other homebrews can be installed easily.

P.S: Do not turn off the PSP or remove the memory card else the hacking will go. Instead of switching it off just put it on standby and keep charging it regularly.

Note: The above mentioned method is tried and tested many times but still the above post cannot be hold responsible if you somehow manage to damage or brick the PSP. There is always a risk involved in hacking!!!
