Unlocking Windows Phone 7 and updating to mango (beta2)

Posted by on August 4, 2011 No comments

THE GOOD NEWS

The first Windows Phone 7 jailbreak has been released along time ago and its called ChevronWP7, it has been developed by well known and respected Microsoft community enthusiasts Rafael Rivera, Long Zheng and Chris Walsh. ChevronWP7 will allow anyone to unlock a WP7 device for developing purpose, giving you the possibility to install and run your won software without a developer account.

THE BAD NEWS

ChevronWP7 works only with the first version on WP7, with your stock software (before the big copy-paste update, the NoDo-7392).

Although at beginning I was enthusiastic and ready to pay the developer account yearly fee, guess what? My country (Romania) was not an option! and that almost filled my eyes with tears (just kidding). Anyway, because I’m from a different country not “supported” by app hub, I’ve decided to go along and try to unlock my phone for learning purpose. I’ve succeed that after hours of reading and trying that, and the other thing and doing recover from backup on failure and blah, blah, blah and here I am now, with my new HTC Mozart fully unlocked and updated to the latest big update, Mango. It is surprisingly very simple to activate your phone for developing purpose, you only need to make a registry entry on your phone: DeveloperUnlockState inside HKLM\Comm\Security\LVMod and then another one to prevent Zune to lock back the phone. But how the heck you will going to do that? because is not as easy as was on older windows mobile versions ,WM5-6 or 6.5. Well, just search on xda forums and you will find your way. Let me cut it down for you in some simple steps that I did for my HTC Mozart (this works only on HTC devices): Read more »

Google+ Invites For Free: Get’em Quick!

Posted by on July 15, 2011 13 comments

The new Google’s social networking site is up and running in beta stage for some time now, as you expected is invitation based. Scams are all over the net trying to make a buck out of this. Try searching amazon for example, $100 for a Google+ invitation, wtf? Are you for real? Are you going to pay for that when is free and it will be made public for everyone to register, FREE? It looks like people do spend money on a simple thing that can be for free, just search for free invites and you will get a bunch of them. If you don’t believe that invitations can be free and you want to try the new Google’s project (Google+ Plus), just leave your gmail address in this post comments and you will get invited ;-)

    Notes:

  • Leave your email address in the email field of the comment or omit the “gmail.com” part of the email if you don’t want it exposed to search engines.
  • If clicking on the invitation email link “Learn more about Google+” does not allow you to register try again later, eventually will work. Good Luck!

Subs Grabber project moved

Posted by on February 14, 2010 2 comments

  I’m not maintaining the Subs Grabber project anymore, all projects copyrights and feature updates will be released from now here. As you can see Subs Grabber sources have been sold, and it goes shareware from now on. I’m still using it for my personal use, is still a great subtitles tool but I don’t have sufficient time for this project, I’ve found an old friend who will take subs grabber to the next level, hope to succeed because it looks greater and useful with every release, I’m proud I’ve managed to start it, to bad I didn’t succeed in keep it here.

ps: Happy valentines day! :X

Subs Grabber update (v0.4.0)

Posted by on April 6, 2009 15 comments

   Subs Grabber Build v0.4.0.47 is out with new features, new subtitles servers and above all his own server where everyone can upload their subtitle linked with the video file. What’s “linked” thing you ask? Well it’s actually a unique hash/id that will identify your video/movie file you have. Based on that you can get a perfect match search result of a published subtitle, no more wasted time to match names, no more wasted clicks. You can now set your video file for a perfect match result, if you are not lucky enough and a perfect match is not found on our server SG will try to match video file name and folder with the search results from the other servers and highlight the ones matching. So, for best results give SG the file name/path as well ;)

Any way, hope you like it, here are the major changes, some screenshots and download link below:

What’s new

  • subtitrari.softpedia.com removed: they moved subtitles on forums, i tried to add support, asked for permission, i didn’t get it, they don’t want it, sorry :(
  • added more subtitles servers: anysubs.com, divxsubtitles.net, subtitrari.regielive.ro
  • added own server only for subtitles linked with the video file. You can now upload/publish subs and get lucky with a perfect match result when searching. Anyone is welcomed to help Subs Grabber grow by uploading subtitles along with the movie hash in any supported language. It’s easy to upload subs, SG will do everything for you, you just need to supply the video and subtitle files. Just register for an account from SG ->Upload tab and start uploading and enjoy the perfect match results :-) (please don’t modify the original subtitles, if you modify a subtitle to fit your needs keep the original author in place and add your self as the one who modify it along with the modify reason, authors deserves respect for their work )
  • added IMDb info grabber when uploading new subs
  • added more powerful shell extension when right clicking on a video file, you can right click and just start the search if you feel lucky, or upload subs to help Subs Grabber grow.
  • subtitles with name/details matching the movie file or folder name will be highlighted (names with red color)
  • Work still in progress, see http://subtitrari.raz-soft.com

  I want to give a big thanks to the first guys who helped me populate the subtitles database so far: done8989, liviukiller, codename, luci19m . Thanks a bunch for your contribution :-)
