How To Jailbreak PlayStation 3

PlayStation 3 Jailbreak
Jailbreak PS3 is a custom firmware that will allow game play of homebrew PS3 games and as well for game backup into the system hard drive without the need of having the game disc. Jailbreak PS3 will bypass the security check using a exploit which occurs with USB devices that allows the execution of certain codes breaking the barrier. 

Backup your Games
The primary reason for jailbreaking any device is to install cracked applications. But it can also be used to backup your games. For instance, if you're a bit clumsy and have the habit of lending your games to careless friends, this feature comes in really handy as it allows you to back up the entire game onto your hard drive so you can play it whenever without the need of a disc. You will lose online play but for games without a multiplayer features like God of War, it won't make a huge difference.

Save a lot of Dough
The next obvious pro would have to be all the money you'll save especially since console games aren't exactly cheap. Games are available on the Internet if you know where to look. After that, it's just a matter of transferring the games into the PS3and playing them.

Homebrew Apps and Games
A lot of developers have released custom applications also know as homebrew apps that extend the functionality of the PS3. For instance, there are PS One and Nintendo emulators available that let you play those games on the console. An app called Multiman allows you to backup your PS3 games onto your hard drive where as BlackBox is very useful FTP server that let's you quickly transfer files into the PS3 without a portable hard drive.

Kajabi: How To Set-Up ClickBank So Affiliates/Prospects Won't Miss-Out The Funnel Pages

Normally ClickBank users/sellers only have a single sales page and only have one URL to provide when setting-up their product.


For Kajabi users that have a full launch funnel (squeeze page, series of event pages and a sales page), here's how you do it.

Log-in to your ClickBank account

Under Account Settings - My Site:
Set your root URL as the HopLink Target URL instead of the sales page URL.


Under My Settings - My Products:
Make sure you have the correct settings for the integration.


Once your done, you need to make a request for product approval. This is where you put the actual Sales Page URL and additional instruction to let ClickBank access your product (give them the Preview URL for the Sales and Thank You Pages).

Warrior Special Offer Kajabi

What is WSO?


It stands for Warrior Special Offers (also known as Wallet Siphoning Opportunity), wherein members of the popular Internet Marketing forum - www.WarriorForum.com can sell their wares at a special price for Warrior members. The URL is: http://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-special-offers-forum/

Excerpt From WSO Rules:
"All WSO's Must Be Something You Created. A Product Of Your Own. (A package of ebooks someone threw together is not considered a product and will be deleted) This is completely self explanatory and not up for debate. If you yourself did not create the product do not post it here."
"A Warrior Special Offer Means The Price You Give Must Be Better Than The Price The Public At Large Can Get. (This is not a "buy my product" forum, it is a "Special Offer" forum)"
View complete rule from the URL above and look for the sticky appropriately named "WSO Rules"

What is WSO Pro?


The all-in-one WSO sale, delivery and management system. WSO Pro is the first and only tool for managing your WSO sales. Thats what they said (view complete product info from their site : http://www.warriorplus.com/wsopro/).

The only good thing with this is that advanced users can forward Paypal IPN data to anywhere. WSO Pro will forward the EXACT IPN data received from Paypal to another system of your choosing. So that means if you are selling access to your Kajabi Membership Portal in Warrior Forum, you're in luck. (Note that this is experimental and is not officially supported by either companies.).

So here's the guide, enjoy :)

Cock Tales: Blue Tequila Cold Remedy

Not really a remedy, but more like a treatment...


It is generally accepted among doctors and scientists that alcohol has an inhibitory effect upon the immune system. However, the user may find a brief relief of symptoms, due to both the topical numbing effect of alcohol in the throat, and the generally pleasant feeling of intoxication.

This is a quick mix that uses tequila and blue curaçao. While tequila does not have anything to do with the common cold, the pineapple juice is rich in vitamin c.

Prep Time: 2 minutes

Total Time: 2 minutes

Yield: 1 Drink

Ingredients:

  • 1 oz tequila
  • 1 oz blue curaçao
  • 1 can pineapple juice


Preparation:

  • Pour the tequila into the glass of your choice.
  • Fill the glass with ice cubes.
  • Add the pineapple juice.
  • Stir well.
  • Top with blue curaçao and stir lightly again.

Creating/Choosing A Product To Sell

When creating or choosing a product to sell, the first thing you want to do is make sure the product is solving a problem.


For example, someone is overweight and wants to lose weight. You create a product that helps them lose weight – you are solving their problem.

A man wants to impress his girlfriend by cooking her a nice dinner… problem is he doesn’t know the slightest thing about cooking. You create a video site that teaches a beginner how to cook like chef – you are solving a problem.

If you aren’t solving a problem you will have a hard time trying to sell a product.

The next thing you want to do is figure out if there are enough people looking to solve that problem.


Lets say you have an idea to write a strategy guide that is going to help people beat your favorite N64 video game. Is there really going to be enough people looking to solve that problem to make it profitable and worth your time?

Remember no matter how good you are at getting traffic, marketing, selling, etc., you are only going to get your product in front of a very tiny percent of your target market. Focus on markets that have thousands, hundreds of thousands, or millions of people you can target.

Targeting potential customers with specific needs.


Sure the bigger market, the greater the competition, but there are lots of potential customers on the Internet to go around.

You can always find a big target market and find a smaller “niche” within that market. For example if you are doing a weight loss product, you could focus on weight loss for woman over 50 and still have a big market. If you are doing a cooking video membership site why not focus on people looking to learn how to cook Italian meals.

The worst thing you can do is put in weeks of your time creating an awesome product, only to find out no one is interested in what you have to offer. Do your research before you start creating your product and make sure there is a need.

Lastly I highly recommend creating a product worth at least 5-10x what the customer is paying.


This is tough to judge in some niches, but as an example, if you have a course that teaches small businesses how to advertise online and you want to charge $100 for it, you will want to make sure that if your customers follow your course, they will easily make that $100 back and then $500-$1000+ more on top of that.

Another way you can look at that is lets say you have a weight loss product that costs $50. If you are completely replacing their personal trainer that would cost the person $1500, there’s a lot of value in your product for the customer so you shouldn’t be selling them too hard.

Have fun!

PlayStation 3 Error Code 80130182

PlayStation 3

This code suggests the PlayStation 3 is not detecting connection to the Internet.


Try any or all the following to resolve the issue all by yourself.

Disable PS3 Media Server Connection

This feature allows the PlayStation 3 to connect to DLNA Media Servers on the same wireless network. However, if this setting is enabled, it may interfere with Internet Connectivity.

To disable the Media Server Connection:

  • In the XMB™ home menu, go to (Settings) > [Network Settings]
  • Select [Media Server Connection] and press the X button.
  • Highlight [Disable] and press the X button.
  • Check Your Network Equipment


Make sure your network router supports b/g/n Wi-Fi connections

If the router does not support Wi-Fi, you will need to use a Wireless Access Point (WAP) that supports 802.11b or 802.11g wireless protocols. If you have a Wireless Access Point that is 802.11n, you will need to make sure you set it so that it is in mixed mode (accepts 802.11b or 802.11g signals). If you do not know how to operate or access your network equipment settings, (such as your DSL or Cable router settings), you will need to contact the manufacturer of the equipment directly.

The 40GB, 60GB, 80GB, and 160GB models of the PlayStation 3 support 802.11b or 802.11g wireless standards.

Confirm SSID

Verify the Service Set Identifier (SSID) of your wireless network. Since scanning for SSIDs with your PlayStation 3 can pick up other wireless networks, make sure you have selected the correct SSID which belongs to your own wireless network. It is also possible that your WAP has the SSID broadcasting feature turned "Off", which means your PlayStation 3 will not pick up the SSID when scanning for available wireless networks. You will need to either turn "On" the SSID broadcast feature on your WAP, or speak to the administrator of your network to obtain your SSID.

Confirm WEP or WPA Security Key

If your wireless network access is security-enabled (encrypted) from open access, you will need your WEP (Wired Equivalent Privacy) or WPA (Wi-Fi Protected Access) security key or password. If you do not know this information, speak to the person who configured your home network settings.

Confirm if your Wireless Access Point Requires a MAC Address

If your WAP is configured to "filter" Media Access Control addresses (MAC address), you will need to enter the PlayStation 3's MAC address into the WAP's MAC filter table as an allowed device.

Security

Check if you have available Firewalls set-up. This may need to be de-activated.

USB Equipment

Check if there is a USB cord connected to the modem. If there is, unplug this cord and make sure an Ethernet cable is connected from the modem to the wireless access point (router) then power cycle the modem and router to refresh the settings.

Also the PlayStation 3 is unable to connect to the Internet through the USB port, it must be connected via an Ethernet cord or via Wi-Fi network. You will not be able to use a USB adaptor or a cell phone USB adaptor with the PlayStation 3.

Power-Cycle ALL Network Devices

Turn off (unplug) ALL of your network devices and equipment making sure all lights on the modems has turned off, including any wireless access points, routers, Voice Over IP (VOIP) modems, broadband modems for two (2) full minutes. UNPLUG/DISCONNECT EVERYTHING!

Restore Default Settings

It may be necessary to restore all of the PS3 system settings back to the original "default" configuration.

Go Hard-Wire

Get an Ethernet cable and plug your PS3 directly to the modem/router.

Call Sony

See if their support team can help you get your PS3 back online.

Give Up

Go Skateboarding

Adobe Update Error #U41M1C212

Adobe Update Error

Getting "Update server not responding" when trying to update Adobe Products?


Out of the incredible frustration of trying unsuccessfully to update my Adobe Software on an HP Laptop, I installed the software in an Intel Atom-based Desktop and did not get the same error message.

The answer is actually rather simple. Since updating online have something to do with Networking, I noticed there is one adapter that is present on my laptop that is not available in the desktop, that stupid piece of %&^# - Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter.

Just follow the same steps I made below:
  1. Open Network and Sharing Center
  2. Click Change adapter settings
  3. Right-click the Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter, and click Disable.
  4. Open Adobe Reader and Help > Check for Updates

And voila, updates a la Adobe Updater. Enjoy!

Mac OS X Server / VirtualBox

VirtualBox is a powerful x86 and AMD64/Intel64 virtualization product for enterprise as well as home use. Not only is VirtualBox an extremely feature rich, high performance product for enterprise customers, it is also the only professional solution that is freely available as Open Source Software under the terms of the GNU General Public License (GPL) version 2. Presently, VirtualBox runs on Windows, Linux, Macintosh, and Solaris hosts and supports a large number of guest operating systems including but not limited to Windows (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, Server 2003, Vista, Windows 7), DOS/Windows 3.x, Linux (2.4 and 2.6), Solaris and OpenSolaris, OS/2, and OpenBSD. VirtualBox is being actively developed with frequent releases and has an ever growing list of features, supported guest operating systems and platforms it runs on. VirtualBox is a community effort backed by a dedicated company: everyone is encouraged to contribute while Oracle ensures the product always meets professional quality criteria.

Installing Mac OS X Server as Guest Operating System


Starting with version 3.2, VirtualBox has experimental support for Mac OS X Server guests. This allows you to install and execute unmodified versions of Mac OS X Server on supported host hardware.

Whereas competing solutions perform modifications to the Mac OS X Server install DVDs (e.g. different boot loader and replaced files), VirtualBox is the first product to provide the modern PC architecture expected by OS X without requiring any "hacks".

You should be aware of a number of important issues before attempting to install a Mac OS X Server as Guest Operating System.

  • Mac OS X is commercial, licensed software and contains both license and technical restrictions that limit its use to certain hardware and usage scenarios. It is important that you understand and obey these restrictions.
  • In particular, for most versions of Mac OS X Server, Apple prohibits installing them on non-Apple hardware. Also, only the server versions of Mac OS X are designed to be used in a virtual environment; as a result, VirtualBox does not support client versions of Mac OS X as a guest.
  • These license restrictions are also enforced on a technical level. Mac OS X Server verifies whether it is running on Apple hardware, and most DVDs that that come with Apple hardware even check for an exact model. These restrictions are not circumvented by VirtualBox and continue to apply.
  • Only CPUs known and tested by Apple are supported. As a result, if your Intel CPU is newer than the build of Mac OS X Server, or if you have a non-Intel CPU, it will most likely panic during bootup with an "Unsupported CPU" exception. It is generally best to use the Mac OS X Server DVD that came with your Apple hardware.
  • The Mac OS X Server installer expects the harddisk to be partitioned so when it does not offer a selection, you have to launch the Disk Utility from the "Tools" menu and partition the hard disk. Then close the Disk Utility and proceed with the installation.
  • In addition, as Mac OS X Server support in VirtualBox is currently still experimental

Time Machine For Windows 7

Time Machine lets you automatically back up your entire system in Mac OS X v10.5 and Mac OS X 10.6 or later. Time Machine keeps an up-to-date copy of everything on your Mac--system files, digital photos, music, movies, TV shows, documents, and so forth. You can easily go "back in time" to restore files if you ever need to. The software is designed to work with the Time Capsule as well as other internal or external drives.

Windows and Mac Time Machine

Time Machine is a backup utility, not an archival utility, it is not intended as offline storage. Time Machine captures the most recent state of your data on your disk. As snapshots age, they are prioritized progressively lower compared to your more recent ones.

Did You Know That The Automatic Windows 7 File Backup That You Didn’t Know You Had Works Like Time Machine?


Windows 7 and certain editions of Windows Vista come with an automatic file and folder backup feature called “Previous Versions” that many PC users don’t seem to know about. Individual data file and folder backups are created by System Restore or by Windows Backup. With the default setting for System Restore, this means monitored files are backed up once a day. To be more precise, records called “shadow copies” are created. These keep track of any changes that have occurred for files and folders.

Windows and Mac Time Machine

These shadow copies can’t be accessed directly. To see the previous versions of a file or folder, right-click the object and choose “Restore Previous Versions” from the context menu. A dialog listing the previous versions will then open. An example for a folder called “PDFs” is shown in the figure below. Only dates when the file or folder had changes will be shown. There are three buttons that allow for various operations with a selected previous version. Clicking the button "Open" will display a selected entry. Clicking "Copy" will allow you to create a copy of a particular version and save it in a different location. Clicking "Restore" will replace the present file or folder contents with those of the selected version. And there you have it - a Windows time machine.

PlayStation Network Error 80710d36


PlayStation Network Error 80710D36 prevents PlayStation Network users from logging in. Instead of the usual storefront, a message pops up simply reading 80710D36. Back out of the menu by pressing the circle button and try again.

Simply put, you are screwed. Try again until your fingers bleed.

It's More Fun In The Philippines

It's More Fun In The Philippines

We are 70% Spanish and 30% Smorgasbord

The name Philippines is derived from that of King Philip II of Spain. Spanish explorer Ruy López de Villalobos during his expedition in 1542 named the islands of Leyte and Samar Felipinas after the then Prince of Asturias (Spain). Eventually the name Las Islas Filipinas would be used to cover all the islands of the archipelago. Before it became commonplace, other names such as Islas del Poniente (Islands of the West) and Magellan's name for the islands San Lázaro were also used by the Spanish to refer to the islands.

In 1521, Portuguese explorer Ferdinand Magellan arrived in the Philippines and claimed the islands for Spain. Colonization began when Spanish explorer Miguel López de Legazpi arrived from Mexico in 1565 and formed the first European settlements in Cebu. In 1571, after dealing with the local royal families in the wake of the Tondo Conspiracy and defeating the Chinese pirate warlord Limahong, the Spanish established Manila as the capital of the Spanish East Indies.

Short-List Of The Islands, Diving Spots, Surfing Grounds, Coral Reefs and White Sand Beaches

  • The Hundred Islands, also located in the Northern Philippines, is a group of more than 400 islets with coral reefs surrounding the islets. These islands are famous for their beaches and the coral reefs, which can be explored by snorkeling.
  • Boracay Island is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the country. The island boasts a 4-kilometer stretch of white sand beach, considered to be the best beach in Asia and one of the top ten beaches in the world.
  • The province of Palawan is one of the most beautiful islands in the South China Sea. Palawan has natural gas fields on the northeastern part of the island but the beautiful beaches around the island remain pristine. The island is home to the spectacular Tubbataha Reef and the breathtaking Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park, both UNESCO World Heritage sites.
  • Surfing in the Philippines is comparable to the best in the world – with the world-famous Cloud 9 off the island of Siargao facing the Philippine Trench in the Western Pacific as well as the surfing destinations of La Union and Zambales (facing South China Sea).
  • The Philippines is one of the top three best diving destinations in the world, alongside Palau and the Maldives. The archipelago is one of the top biodiversity hotspots in the world, with the most number of species concentrated in one area. The best dive sites in the Philippines are located in Anilao, Boracay, Malapascua, Apo Island, Balicasag, Pamilacan, Tubbataha, Palawan, and Puerto Galera. Subic Bay, home of a former American naval base, is also known for World War II wreck dives.


Alona Beach, Panglao



Alona Beach, an 800 meter stretch of white powdery sand, in the south of Panglao Island, is south west of Bohol and only 18 kilometers or 30 minutes away from Tagbilaran City, the one and only city of the province. There are many full-service beach and dive resorts reside in Alona Beach. Dive tours to Balicasag and Pamilacan Islands, famous dive spots, can be arranged.

Alona Beach in Panglao Bohol is famous for its coral white sand that stretches one and a half kilometers and ends in rocky cliffs at both sides. It is the most developed beach in Bohol and now one of the top tourist destinations in the Philippines.

Fringed by tall swaying coconut palm trees, some of which are leaning towards the sea, and the azure waters beyond, Alona Beach is a tropical paradise! Enhancing its looks are the blue and white outrigger boats that line the beach area ready to take visitors on an island tour or dive safari. The morning sun’s rays on the shimmering waters are beautiful to behold. Afternoons are shaded for the sun sets at the other side of the island. Yet when the sun has set and darkness settles in, the stars come out one by one and grace the night sky.

The waters off Alona Beach are rich in marine resources. In fact, a few meters from the shore are sea grasses which are the habitat of small colored fishes. One hundred meters towards the deep is the edge of the “house” reef. Three to five meters down you will be able to see some corals and fishes even without diving equipment. This is an ideal place to snorkel.

To cater to the steady incoming visitors, many resorts have been put up along Alona Beach offering full-service, good accommodations, and an assortment of local and foreign cuisine. Dive shops are available offering dive gears for rent, dive instructions, training, and safaris. There are about 30 resorts and 15 dive shops of different sizes in Alona Beach alone. At Alona, one can hire a boat and do diving around the island as well as in the islands of Balicasag and Siquijor. The beach is also the jump-off point to the island of Pamilacan for dolphin and whale watching.

Alona Beach is located at barangay Tawala, Panglao Island, around 20 kilometers from Tagbilaran City. Travel time from Tagbilaran City to Alona Beach may take to about 30-40 minutes. Tagbilaran City can be reached in 1.5 hours by fast ferries from Cebu or by airplane from Manila.

Puerto Galera, Mindoro



Puerto Galera is a tourist favorite for its numerous beaches, snorkeling spots, and diving destinations. Puerto Galera is the northwesternmost municipality in the province of Oriental Mindoro, Philippines. It is located at the southwestern end of the Isla Verde Passage, about 130 kilometers (81 mi) south of Manila. To get there, board a bus bound to Batangas Pier and from there you can take passenger boats bound to the main port. From the port, there are many shuttles available to bring you to the beach spot your choice.

"This coastal town is well known among tourists for its numerous pocket beaches and many snorkeling and Scuba diving spots. The area was designated a Man and Biosphere Reserve of UNESCO in 1973 and has some of the most diverse coral reef diving in Asia. The marine environment has benefited in recent years from the influx of tourist dollars. This has seen a huge reduction in the number of fishermen in the area, as they gain higher revenue from tourists. 
Puerto Galera is a listed by the Club of the Most Beautiful Bays of the World, and is the only bay in the Philippines to be listed there. 
Among the famous beaches in Puerto Galera are Sabang Beach and White Beach, which have an active nightlife with numerous bars and restaurants. Both beaches also have an array of first-class and economy-class accommodations. 
Sabang beach is the main destination for foreign tourists, while White Beach remains popular with local travelers. Big La Laguna Beach and Small La Laguna Beach are considered part of Sabang with resorts lining the beaches. Big La Laguna Beach is popular for local swimmers and snorkelers. Since 2001 White beach has seen uncontrolled development. New restaurants and places to stay are rapidly encroaching on the beach itself and little remains of the once charming beach. Puerto Galera town is a pleasant but sleepy Philippine town with few attractions. It has a large central catholic church and a Pier area, with a selection of bistros and cafes. 
Behind the beaches are the huge and generally unexplored mountain ranges of central Mindoro. A particular local attraction is the nine hole golf course perched on the hillside above White Beach which commands spectacular views over Puerto Galera's natural harbor and the Verde Island Passage. Mangyan tribes are scattered over the mountain sides - some of the more remote tribes have virtually no contact with the outside world. Of the eight tribes on Mindoro, the Iraya are the largest. They are based in the Puerto Galera area. 
Puerto Galera is among the top diving destination in the Philippines. Excellent diving is found less than 5 minutes from Sabang Beach. The diving generally focuses around the areas either side of Escarceo Point, which is famous for its current rips. Strong currents are a feature of the diving in Puerto Galera and it is good advice to employ the services of an experienced local guide or dive centre. There are more than thirty dive sites all within a 5-10 minute banca ride from Sabang Beach. Marine life is highly diverse. 180+ species of nudibranchs are found in the area and many species of fish can be seen. A variety of wrecks have been sunk over the years in addition to the one wreck of an engine of a WWII Japanese patrol boat. 
Puerto Galera is also one of the main technical diving destinations in Asia. Technical Diving International - [TDI] has many dive centers in the area, offering the full range of TDI courses from Basic nitrox to advanced tri-mix." -Wikipedia
Puerto Galera is politically subdivided into 13 barangays:

  • Aninuan (Tamaraw Beach)
  • Balatero (The Port)
  • Dulangan
  • Palangan
  • Sabang (Sabang Beach, Big La Laguna Beach and Small La Laguna Beach)
  • San Antonio
  • San Isidro (White Beach)
  • Santo Niño
  • Sinandigan
  • Tabinay
  • Villaflor
  • Poblacion (The Town)
  • Baclayan

    Tamaraw Beach, Puerto Galera



    Located in the coastal village of barangay Aninuan, Tamaraw Beach is between two other popular beaches in Puerto Galera namely White Beach and Talipanan Beach. It’s peaceful and quiet, with its quaint own shoreline.

    Tamaraw Beach Resort is ideally your beach resort for a short weekend getaway. The place is very peaceful and relaxing and the ambiance is just perfect. If you want to have a taste of beach party, you can easily hop on a tricycle just outside the hotel or resort you are staying-in and go to White Beach.

    If you’re coming from Manila, take a bus going to the Port of Batangas then ride a ferryboat to Puerto Galera. When you reach Balatero Pier, take a jeepney or tricycle to get to Tamaraw Beach.

    Panglao Island, Bohol



    Panglao Island Beaches is one of the favorite destination of tourists, local and foreign alike in the island Bohol. Many are lured to the island because of the white sandy beaches, the cool crystal blue waters, and the world-famous surrounding dive sites. The visitors stay, and some even for good, just for the tranquil ambiance of the place.

    Panglao is divided into two municipalities: Panglao and Dauis. There are beaches in Dauis as well as in Panglao town.Beaches of Panglao town are: Alona Beach, Doljo Beach, Momo Beach, Bolod Beach, Bagobo Beach and Danao Beach in the barangays of Tawala, Doljo, Tangnan, Bolod, Libaong and Danao respectively. Beaches of Dauis are in barangays Bingag, Dao, and Biking.

    Talipanan Beach, Puerto Galera


    Talipanan Beach is the tranquil and less popular of the renowned beaches of Puerto Galera in Oriental Mindoro. Situated in the west of White Beach and the adjacent Tamaraw Beach, it provides an alternative to the noisy environment for those who are looking for a peaceful and quiet vacation.

    The beach at Talipanan can be considered an extension of the one in White Beach. You can walk from one end to the other in about 1-2 hours depending on your pace. There are a few rock outcroppings along the way but these are easily traversed during low tide. The most difficult part to cross would be the rocky area between White Beach and Tamaraw Beach.

    Talipanan Beach offers guest with a direct view of the long white beach and crystal clear water. At the background, one would see the beautiful tropical jungle and mountain paradise perfect for trekking and water sports. Likewise, it provides various beach activities such as snorkeling and swimming.

    The beach in this part of Mindoro is a mix of rounded pebbles and fine white sand. The sand is not as powdery as in Panglao or Boracay and the pebbles require you to swim with foot wear on, but other than that, the beach is still as charming as ever, especially when the sun starts to set.

    Get CyanogenMod
    CyanogenMod is an after-market replacement for the firmware of over sixty cell phones and Internet tablets. Based on the Android mobile computer operating system, it offers features and options not found in the official firmware distributed by vendors of these devices.

    Features supported by CyanogenMod include native theming support (also known as the "T-Mobile Theme Engine"), a codec for the Free Lossless Audio Codec (FLAC), a large Access Point Name list, an OpenVPN client, a reboot menu, support for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and USB tethering, CPU overclocking, soft buttons and other "tablet tweaks", toggles in the notification pull-down (such as Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and GPS), as well as other interface enhancements. CyanogenMod is also stated to increase performance and reliability compared with official firmware releases.

However, CyanogenMod offers several benefits over the pre-installed firmware, including vastly flexible interface and customization, a wider set of new features, and sometimes significant improvements in performance.

    CyanogenMod's features may allow you to bypass software limitations imposed by carriers, which may prevent you from using the handset in a manner that they do not support. Such features include, but not limited to, the ability to overclock the device's CPU, tether the device to your computer, or fully back up the device to your SD Card.

    Nintendo Wii Error Code: 51330

    Nintendo Wii
    This simply means that your Nintendo Wii Console is unable to connect to your wireless network.

    For newly configured settings:
    • Check the password (also known as a WPA or WEP key) entered into the Wii console. Make sure the password is entered into the Wii exactly as it appears in your router's wireless network settings. Security keys are case sensitive. 
    • Change your router's channel setting to 1 or 11. By default, most routers broadcast on channel 6, which overlaps with other channels and may be weaker. For help doing this, click here and select your router brand and model (if available). The information you need is found in the "Broadcast Channel:" area. 
    • Other wireless security enabled in your router such as MAC Address filtering. 

    Did this connection used to work but has suddenly stopped? "Power cycle" your router and modem. To do this:
    • Unplug both the modem and the router from the power outlet. 
    • Wait a few minutes, and plug the modem back in. 
    • Wait a couple of minutes for the modem to initialize, then plug in the router. 
    • Try to connect the Wii, Nintendo DS, or Nintendo 3DS online and test for proper response.
