Being Doraemon / Headset Woes

Being the resident geek among my friends I get a lot of tech support questions and requests. I'm not bothered though I enjoy figuring these things out. I also don't mind teaching people how to use their PC, mobile, gadget as long as they are willing to listen and learn. Sharing knowledge is much more fun than acquiring it. Much like Doraemon who tries to help Nobita (fortunately I don't mess up as much as my fave robot cat from the future.)

I've finished with Aileen's Dihya's palm Treo 750 last night did some application installs and registry tweaking.

Got 2 more jobs lined up for this week:
1. Diagnose Camille's palm Treo 750 - no earpiece volume.
2. Diagnose Chutball's home desktop - slow system / possible viri.

Damn working with 750s again. I miss my Treo 750 although I know I am better off with my TyTN2 because it has WiFi and I don't have my own PC at home. I also appreciate the tilt screen much more, I hope when the time (or urge) comes that I move on to the next device I get to keep the TyTN2 as a spare mobile it really is a well built device, now if only HTC supported it with nicely compiled drivers and ROMs. I have rolled back my device from 6.1 to 6.0 because of a bug. I contacted HTC support but got the standard non-commital answer. I am still itching to get an MSI wind as my ultra portable but have decided to hold off until next month after I get back from HKG (who knows what new stuff they have there!) As for my desktop dreams well I think I can delay that further since the titles I intend to play are a couple of months off. I did mention that I broke my i.Tech ArrowLite's ear hook. My trusty Motorola HT820 also needs some repairs as the earpads have become worn out. I wonder where I can have those repaired. I can probably make do with these minor annoyances for a bit longer.. That is if don't see compelling stuff in HKG hehehe.

Well it's time to hit the hay, tomorrow is another day!

Coron Labor Day Weekend Getaway

The weather wasn’t as cooperative as we would’ve liked but I think we made the most of it :D [waiting for our flight to Busuanga] We went to the saltwater hot spring, island hoping, and had a whole lot of fun at Loralee’s luau. [The water is FIIIIINE!!!] [dinner at Bistro Coron] [Happy Birthday Loralee :D] Coron is one heck of a lovely place… just remember to bring mosquito repellent. http://www.flickr.com/photos/bnycastro/tags/coron_0509

Darth Kegaw to Treo 750: It is Useless to Resist

I have never been one to keep my devices *as is* when it comes to the OS/Firmware… This 2nd Treo 750 will be no different. So I dusted off my old Cheetah files [trivia: the Treo 750 is codenamed HTC Cheetah] and decided to HARD SPL [this allows for non-carrier branded ROMs to be loaded] and flashed it to a Windows Mobile 6.1 ROM. Everything is proceeding as I have foreseen… and the ROM loaded without any issues. I did notice that Microsoft Voice Command 1.6 was not included in this ROM not really a problem since I own the software as well.  I’m currently syncing my PIM data and will be installing my apps over the next few days.
