hi all, im writing this because i am so mad with my new blackberry storm, i got a new replacement unit last week after I go up and down to imobile requested for a new phone, my previous phone screen was totally blank and cannot “ON” at all. Today i got a new phone from them. At a first place, i think i am so happy because all my headache about the phone was gone. but now im facing a new problem, the screen always freeze and i cannot scroll and click! WTF?

It is my fault or i dont have any good luck to use blackberry?

So what is my solution? What if this happen to you? My explanation below might help:

1. Try to pull out the battery, a lots of website on the net call it a soft reset

If this method does not work, try

2. Go to Options > Security Options >General Setting > Press Menu > Wipe Handheld

if this method also does not work, try

3. Try Wipe wit JL_Cmder

Pre-Wipe Tasks

1. Download and install Jl_Cmder to your PC ( Click here to download Jl_Cmder ) Reference Link

2. Make sure ALL your data (i.e. contacts, appointments, memos and etc) are backed up or synced before proceeding! This will wipe everything off of the device

3. Make sure you have the latest version of both Desktop Manager and the Handheld OS installed on your PC. If you need them then download them from here:

 Desktop Manager and Handheld OS List

4. From the PC navigate to c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader and delete the file vendor.xml

 If you have never installed the Handheld OS before then the vendor.xml file will not be on the PC and you can skip this step

5. Plug the device into the PC using the USB cord and make sure Desktop Manager is closed

Wipe The Device

1. Wipe the device using Jl_Cmder

 This may take several attempts to connect to the device, so keep trying until it connects and wipes

2. The device will reboot to a white screen with a ‘507′ error

Install OS and Restore

1. Open Desktop Manager and select Application Loader

2. Install the OS by following the prompts and selections

3. The device will reboot. It can take up to 15 minutes for the 1st boot.

4. Restore the previously made backup or re-sync

5. Install the battery back into the device and unplug from the PC

If this method also does not work, send it back to your vendor and ask for a new one!

hope this helps,

i will post some screen shot soon.

All of us will having a problem to send out email when using streamyx connection, i believe this is the best solution for the time being.You will need a gmail account to use their smtp server

This is the error message on SMTP error

Change your default SMTP to smtp.gmail.com

Check ‘My server requires authentication’ and enter your Gmail username and password

Use secure connection and enter 465 as SMTP Port number.

Most of the web hosting company make a default php setting  of the register globals to “off”

You can change this for your individual sites by adding a line to the .htaccess file in your root home folder:

php_value register_globals on

In seo, do you need a good hosting provider? the answer is definitely yes. If you use a free and unreliable free hosting, a spyder for the search engine maybe visit your site but your site is not available. Or maybe after the spyder crawl half of the website, and your website is down. definitely the spyder will stay away from your site because your site is not available to view. Theres nothing like that warm and fuzzy feeling your customers get when they encounter an error message. The robot will captured an error message, or found no site at all to index. In this case, you need to find a good hosting provider that ensure the reliability of your site. Ok the next step here try to identify the reason your pages are not being indexed. i will write about seo more in my website . dont forget to link back to me if you like my writings :)

Now, do you think your website opening up the door as big as it can to welcome the search engine spiders?

have a look back to your website and maybe there are several pages are not indexed. Some of the problems we can clarify here is maybe the robots cannot follow your links. Have you ever wonder why most of the big websites have site map? this is to allow robot to follow links and maybe some of the links in the website is using javascript or any application that does not recognize by the robot. Robot is like a queen, you neeed to treat it well. Your website should compatible with the robot eye view. We are encourge you to have a full html website instead of flash or java or any else that require 3rd party application. Why? Robot does not fit with this any 3rd party application. Some website won’t display to viewer who doesnt have Javascript. Guess who doesnt have Javascript? Some website require cookies. Guess who won’t accept cookies? Im sure not you already have the point.  ;)

Yesterday went to kuala lumpur convention center for pc fair 2009 organized by PIKOM, after walk through all the booth, i decided to get a thinkpad for IT support usage. Sometimes it is useful to have a laptop when doing technical support for customers especially when we need some tools like IP scanner, Network Recovery tools and maybe even a network anti-virus.

When i reached home, i open up the box and try to start the laptop. The laptop just gave me a blank screen. ” wtf? “, i thought it was a faulty laptop or something but after i tried to place the ram property which was not install properly by a technician in pc fair, the laptop starts to boot up! hooray.

I immediately get my windows XP cd and install windows XP on my new thinkpad. The salesman told me that ibm give cd cointains xp and vista drivers but i couldnt find any CD in the box. ” Being cheated again? ” . Nevermind, i can find my driver my self. After googling around, i found that ibm has moved the drivers to the lenovo support page. Anyway there is a bit confusion when installing audio driver.

what is ftp? i heard this question so many times thrown by my customers. FTP is File Transfer Protocol that enables you to upload your files to web server. In directly we can say that this is a method to upload a file instead of using “File Manager” function in Cpanel. Normally when you bought a hosting plan they will include a ftp account so that you can upload your file easily. I just created a video called “How to upload files via FTP using Filzilla”. I personally made this videos for my readers and customers , I am sorry if you didnt understand any of my sentenses but I believe the video is clear enought to let you learn how to upload a file into a web server. Enjoy!

Meta tags is also important in optimization, normally things are meant to be hidden like your undies. Your meta tag is something usually stays hidden but sometimes it can be displayed to the world . Meta tags usually can be visible when there is not HTML content on the page. Maybe you will have one page full of flash which is not very friendly to the crawler. Crawler will take the meta tags as your page describtion. Meta tags also useful when someone search your URL but no keywords. Anyhow, meta tag can be useful to your website optimization since search engines usually display 150 or more characters for the listing description. If you are a good writer, then this is the time to show your skills! Here are some pointers for writing great meta description tag:

  • Keep it informative
  • Pair it with your page title
  • Include your keywords in the description
  • Make it unique

Lastly, make sure you dont over do . please do not put in your description is your keyword. A long keyword list isn’t likely to help your ranks and maybe you can be pinalised by doing that!

its been awhile i dont post about SEO in my blog, i would like to appologise to all my blog readers because i have something need to catch up and i am too busy to update this blog. Anyway, today i just would like to give a few tips for search engine optimization. We go to the very basic procedure before we start anything in SEO. I will cover the following topics in this “Basic Website Optimization”:

  • Page Titles
  • Meta Tags
  • Site Text
  • Internal Links

We are all well known that HTML page titles will show up as the first line of clickcable text in most search engines results but are you really know that title is the most important thing is search engine optimization? Title is one of the really big factor in optimization. what you need to do is keep it SHORT because most of the search engines limit and display only 40-60 characters. You also must include your KEYWORD because this will determine what your site is all about. If you can write UNIQUE title in each page you have, it will help you a lot!

Ok. I hope after you read this post, you will straight away edit your website and i will explain more in the next post.
