Restore Nexus S to factory for service return
Posted by The Right Guy in Uncategorized on August 13th, 2011
I got a nexus S for a couple of days and i installed Cyanogenmod on it to unleash it’s power
that was a great experience! but all good thing come to an end… my carrier have the LG Optimus 2x which is a dual core phone! And who don’t want to try a dual-core phone?
So i returned it to the shop… but before i did this i restored everything on it and managed to find a way to remove the ClockWorkMod Recovery!
1. Restore the original rom of the phone from a backup or a stock rom here using the Rom manager or booting diectly in ClockWorkRecovery (bootloader must be unlocked!)
2. After restoring the rom/backup you should do a factory reset.
3. Turn the phone off and start in bootloader( Power + Volume UP)
4.Download this recovery file
5. open a command prompt and go into the tools folder of the Android SDK and Type:
fastboot flash recovery recovery.img
6. Now you can lock the bootloader back using this command:
fastboot oem lock
Now you should be all safe to go back to return the phone and no one will notice
Acer Liquid E first toughs
Posted by The Right Guy in Uncategorized on April 7th, 2011
Last week I decided I wanted to try an Android smartphone so got myself an Acer Liquid E with Fido for 19.99$ which is really cheap!. The phone itself does feel solid despite its low price tag and it have an awesome hardware in this little beast:
CPU: 1 GHz Scorpion processor (Downclocked to 768 MHZ) with Adreno 200 GPU
Memory: 512 MB RAM, 512MB ROM Expansion via SC card up to 32 GB
Screen: 480 x 800 pixels, 3.5 inches TFT capacitive touchscreen, 256K colors
Camera: 5 MP, 2560х1920 pixels, auto-focus
Now coming with Android 2.2 (Froyo)
I was a bit disoriented at first since i came from iOS (iPhone 3Gs) but after a couple of minutes i was confortable with the device. The screen is a bit smaller than the iphone but it still have nice colors and is really responsive.
How school is important for me
Posted by The Right Guy in Uncategorized on January 20th, 2011
Now that I started school last September I didn’t have much time to write anything on my blog… But I think we all agree that school is really important…. especially in IT!
If you don’t have a certification and/or a diploma you don’t have much credibility… That’s what I learned in the past years… The more I go trough my course the more I discover its benefits. Which it’s obvious anyway… It is such a relief for me to go to school as before I was working somewhere that i had too much responsibility for what I was able to actually do… Learning under pressure can be good when you have a solid background in the domain. But when you don’t really know what you are doing well that’s another story! Plus doing this alone is really a nightmare!
Even with my experiences and knowledge I already owned when I started that Network IT course, it was basic stuff that I used to to before, I still learned things in the first 3 months of this course even if it was stuff I already did in the past. At least one time a week I was saying: Damn why I didn’t do that that way? But yeah you can say that I could have learned this by myself.. but when?
Anyway this course keep me busy and I LOVE IT!
The Weirdest Snacks…
Posted by The_Right_User in Food on August 13th, 2010
As hard as it is to admit, I confess: when I was a child, I used to eat paper. Not the most delicious snack, I agree. Most of the time I used to dip it in cranberry juice to make it less dry and more, well, eatable. Even though I no longer engage in this sort of behaviour, I do eat weird snacks from time to time. In the following article, dear readers, I will share my best recipes with you.
The first dish on our menu today is a classic; I have been eating it for years. I call it: Crème glacée au beurre d’arachide. Now, don’t let the fancy French name discourage you. Although it is one of the most complex dishes I am capable of making (and the hardest one on the list), most readers should be able to make it without too many problems. Step 1: put ice-cream into a bowl. Step 2: smear a thick layer of peanut butter on top of the ice-cream and, voilà, a masterpiece has been created!
If that last one was too difficult for you, don’t worry, you can always eat frozen blueberries. I discovered this delicacy recently for lack of a better choice in the fridge and by sheer laziness- who wants to wait until the blueberries unfreeze? Dried fruit is so last year; the future is frozen fruit! Seriously, frozen blueberries make a really great snack; I went through three little plastic containers in one sitting! I don’t know whether they have the same nutritional value as unfrozen ones though…
Last, but not least, is Brie à la Pringles. This is the one you should make to impress your hot date. You take a thin slice of Brie cheese (yum, my favourite!), but instead of spreading it on a piece of baguette bread, you place it on a Pringle. It tastes good, and you can impress your date by showing him/her how innovative you can be in the kitchen. Remember, fine cheese shows a certain degree of sophistication. A word of caution, however: don’t eat too much for you might cut the cheese (pun intended). There you have it, those are my weirdest snacks. Please share your weird eating habits by commenting on this post. Bon appétit, mes amis!
