			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In 1.3 the ZocialNET OS will be introduced, and the user interface will be updated to a more lightweight and compact version, there will be security enabled, a virus scanner, a virtual hard drive, a user management system, and desktop preferences. The OS system will either be flat file or MySQL database. The dock will be removed, and the window systems will be faster. The navigation system will flaunt a new sleek design and system. </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://ronaldarichardson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/screen11.png" rel="lightbox"><img src="http://ronaldarichardson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/screen11-300x168.png" alt="" title="screen1" width="300" height="168" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1234" /></a><br />
Recently a lot of people including myself wanted to switch to chrome  due to the beautiful interface, yet Firefox is way better with its  superb extensions and added functionality. Therefore if you are a person  who only likes Chrome for its outside beauty and would want the  functionality and heart of Firefox well here is a cosmetic customization  article for Firefox.<br />
1. Install <a rel="nofollow" href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/8782" target="_blank">Chromifox</a> Firefox theme – This is a Chrome theme for  Firefox (the best that is out there), First install this. Uninstall any  extensions that change the visual appearance mainly a plugin called <a rel="nofollow" href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/7336" target="_blank">Glasser</a>.</p>
<p>2. Install <a rel="nofollow" href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4762" target="_blank">Hide Menubar</a> to hide the Firefox menubar.</p>
<p>3. Install <a rel="nofollow" href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/26" target="_blank">Download  Statusbar</a> – Another Firefox-chrome difference is the download  status.When you download a file in Firefox browser a window pops out  when showing the download status (time remaining,size of file) whereas  in Google chrome the download status is seen in the status bar.</p>
<p>Downloading Statusbar Firefox addon will bring the Chrome status bar  download feature in your Firefox browser.</p>
<p>4. Install <a rel="nofollow" href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4014" target="_blank">Locationbar2</a> – Makes the Firefox addressbar fully  resemble the Chrome addressbar.</p>
<p>5. Install <a rel="nofollow" href="https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/2108" target="_blank">Stylish</a> (this is a custom styles manager for  Firefox, similar to greasemonkey but manages styles instead of scripts)</p>
<p>6. After installing stylish you can even more customize Firefox using  the custom styles. Download and use the following custom user styles.</p>
<p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://userstyles.org/styles/10470" target="_blank">Tab Bar</a>: Want to move the tab bar to the top of the  window, as seen in Google Chrome? Yes that’s possible with this  experimental hack.</p>
<p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://userstyles.org/styles/10462" target="_blank">Back/Forward Menu</a>: To access the drop-down menu for  the Back and Forward functions, simply right click the Back button or  Forward button. If that’s not enough, use this user style.</p>
<p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://userstyles.org/users/14687" target="_blank">Extra Modifications</a>: You can make Chromifox your own  by adding even more modifications, like smaller or larger text in the  location bar and search bar. Also, you can hide the “favicons” or text  labels in the Bookmarks Toolbar, prevent tab scrolling by setting a  smaller minimum tab width, and get rid of useless menu items. For these  and more, use this user style.</p>
<p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://userstyles.org/styles/1842" target="_blank">Customize Locationbar2</a>: Customize the locationbar  extension even more by categorizing the static dynamic and image pages  with 3 different colors.</p>
<p>That’s all, and please add your ideas and thoughts, in the comments  below.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>OK, I am going to keep this simple, I&#8217;ve done my research, and done it myself. I&#8217;m going to supply the guides and information you need to successfully flash your drive. It seems a few people who are new to hacking move into it to fast and skip over simple steps and get errors returned. So this mini guide will be as basic as humanly possible.</p>
<p><strong>RESOURCES USED &#8211;></strong></p>

<p><strong>REQUIREMENTS &#8211;></strong></p>
<li>A Liteon DG-16D2S dvd drive</li>
<li>Xecutor CK3 Lite</li>
<li>CK3 Probe</li>
<li>DVDKey32 v0.7</li>
<li>Firmtool v1.3</li>
<li>Lite-On-Erase</li>
<li>Dosflash32 v1.6</li>
<li>They say you need a VIA card, but I did mines without one, so i don&#8217;t know how much this is true</li>
<p><strong>STEPS &#8211;></strong></p>
<ol>
<li>Open XBOX360 (<a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=joF4n_HT6X0&#038;feature=player_embedded">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=joF4n_HT6X0&#038;feature=player_embedded</a> &#8211; there are several howto vids on youtube find one that works for you, its pretty easy to do)</li>
<li>Open the side of your computer and locate your motherboard and the first SATA port</li>
<li>What I do is I put my xbox360 inside my computer in a good resting position where my SATA cable could reach my liteon drive just fine. Next connect the SATA cable <em>FROM</em> your computer to the liteondrive.</li>
<li>Now all you have to do is find the port number the drive is connected to, you can do this by following this simple excerpt from se7ensins.com&#8217;s guide:<br />
<blockquote><p><span class='bbc_underline'><strong class='bbc'><br />
Identifying your Sata Port Info</strong></span></p>
<p>There are a few ways to do this, Ill cover the simple ones feel free to use your own methods.</p>
<p><strong class='bbc'>Method One: iPrep</strong><br />
Run iPrep 101 v006 and select your Sata Controller in the drop down box. Then, click the ?<br />
<img src='http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x75/forrrestmaster/Tutorials/tut1.png' alt='Posted Image' class='bbc_img'  width="388" height="500"/></p>
<p>You will be presented with something resembling the image below.<br />
<img src='http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x75/forrrestmaster/Tutorials/tut2.png' alt='Posted Image' class='bbc_img'  width="276" height="169"/></p>
<p>Your command base register is the first 4 characters of DeviceIO &#8211; In this case CF00</p>
<p><span class='bbc_underline'><strong class='bbc'>Method Two: Dosflash32</strong></span></p>
<p>Hook up your LiteOn to your PC power(ed) On</p>
<p>Run Dosflash32.exe<br />
<img src='http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x75/forrrestmaster/Tutorials/tut3.png' alt='Posted Image' class='bbc_img'  width="380" height="156"/></p>
<p>You may or may not see this, this is it failing on my Pioneer DVDRW &#8211; 0&#215;1F0 and 0&#215;170 are generally NOT your magic port.</p>
<p>Select No if it returns 0&#215;170/0&#215;1F0 ports.</p>
<p>If all is good, you will receive something similar to the image below, note my port. 0xCF00 &#8211; The same magic port iPrep returned <img src='http://ronaldarichardson.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p><img src='http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x75/forrrestmaster/Tutorials/tut4.png' alt='Posted Image' class='bbc_img'  width="380" height="158"/></p>
<p>You might as well say No once this is returned as the LiteOn drive is locked, so it won&#8217;t respond to the mtk intro query.</p>
<p><strong class='bbc'>OK, now you have your command base register, we need the com port you will be using (usually 1 for Serial Cables, needs to be 1-9 for USB or USB To Serial Adapters)</strong></p>
<p>Right Click &#8220;My Computer&#8221;</p>
<p>Select properties<br />
<img src='http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x75/forrrestmaster/Tutorials/tut5.png' alt='Posted Image' class='bbc_img'  width="195" height="246"/></p>
<p>Select &#8216;Hardware&#8217; tab, then, &#8216;Device Manager&#8217;<br />
<img src='http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x75/forrrestmaster/Tutorials/tut6.png' alt='Posted Image' class='bbc_img'  width="400" height="468"/><br />
Scroll Down to &#8216;Ports COM &#038; LPT&#8217;<br />
<img src='http://i185.photobucket.com/albums/x75/forrrestmaster/Tutorials/tut7.png' alt='Posted Image' class='bbc_img'  width="400" height="279"/><br />
You will see that I have been assigned Com Port 1</p>
<p><strong class='bbc'>Now you can prepare to dump the data from the LiteOn</strong></p>
<p><strong class='bbc'>At this point, you should have all the system info you need to complete the process.</strong>
</p></blockquote>
</li>
<li>Now that you have your port number your going to extract the key, which is probably the trickiest part for most. In order to do this read the next lines carefully. <code>OK for this to be easy you need the CK3 parts. 1. Plug the CK3Lite into your computers rs232 serial port. usually located on the back of your computer 2. plug the liteon dvd drive power cable to your CK3 but make sure the switch is off when you do this 3. Connect the ck3 probe to the r707 located on the liteon dvd drive. 4. have the disc tray opened half way with the drive status closed. 5. When all this is done should look something like this --> <img src="http://www.adploits.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/connected.jpg" alt="http://www.adploits.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/03/connected.jpg"  width="378" height="352"/></code></li>
<li><strong>TIME TO RETRIEVE THE KEY!!!!</strong>
<li>Important notes:<br />
• Tray Status needs to be closed, but drive half open<br />
• Serial port on LiteOn MUST be in tact (or using a probe/spear)<br />
• You only need R707 joined<br />
• Sata and Serial/USB connected to PC<br />
• Drive powered ON</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://ronaldarichardson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/verdisx10screen.png" rel="lightbox"><img src="http://ronaldarichardson.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/02/verdisx10screen-300x129.png" alt="verdisx10screen" title="verdisx10screen" width="300" height="129" class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-1179" /></a>So I put myself to work for a new look, and new business. Verdisx for short, I have plans on expanding this year. I now offer a new service, web hosting. I know it sounds like not so much a big step away from what service I already provide, but it is progress nonetheless. Anyways the web hosting is just one package that fits all needs, $40.00/m for optimized virtual shared hosting. Nameservers are simple, ns1.verdisx.com ns2.verdisx.com &#8211; I&#8217;m planning to add a new backup service using cloud computing technologies, and the ZocialNET UI. I think it will bring in more business, and show the capabilities of the ZocialNET project, although it has been abandoned for several months I am slowly returning to it&#8217;s development. The expansion of Verdisx is becoming very important in my life. I will soon be attending college for Robotics and Embedded Systems hopefully I will learn new things that I can apply to my business. </p>
<p>Also I will be giving away a free professional website service, and free domain name to anyone, what&#8217;s the catch? All you have to do is sign up for Verdisx web hosting of $40.00/m with a agreement of 5 months. I think it&#8217;s a great way to get a foot in the door for those who need web services. This is limited time, if no one takes the offer, very well I must say. More details will be posted to the website. </p>
<p>There is one more small module I need to code into the website, a news module. I will probably just use cutenews php script, but there I will be able to post deals and offers on Verdisx, and hopefully get some response from my advertising campaign I recently set up.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For the longest it has nearly been impossible to create a native iPhone app without the native SDK which only ran on Mac OSX from what I know. So I turned to web apps for the iphone. Recently I discovered an awesome jQuery toolkit for creating iPhone web apps that not only look like native applications, but feel and work like native applications. Which is pretty damn cool. So I downloaded the toolkit and started playing around with some of the demo apps, modifying them. Hopefully I will make an app and post it to the website soon. Check it out @ <a href="http://www.jqtouch.com/">www.jqtouch.com</a> &#8211; it has an awesome screencast you can check out.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>So I dual boot my Windows 7 acer laptop with Ubuntu, because, why? I like Linux. I also like to code for fun. Anyways, I come across this cool IDE that is based off of Visual Basic called Gambas, and it&#8217;s awesome. Gambas also stands for &#8220;Almost Means Basic&#8221; or its their slogan or whatever. Gambas has all the features of Visual Basic, if not more. I think I will like Gambas more than Eclipse. I will be finding out in my free time. Gambas is available for just about every linux distribution, and most BSD systems. Although there is a Windows version, it is not very stable, nor is the PowerPC version. One awesome application made with Gambas is Guygle, a web geographical web system. Here are some screenshots below of Gambas.</p>

It also works great. Now many people who use a jailbroken iPhone, also have the SwirlyMMS app.</p>
<p>Many people have experienced problems with sending, and receiving MMS on their iPhone before. This is because AT&#038;T blocks MMS off of those sending, and recieving from the iPhone device. They do &#8220;sweeps&#8221; everynight to check if you are using MMS on iPhone.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.ronaldarichardson.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/swirlymms1_applesfera_400px.jpg" rel="lightbox"><img src="http://www.ronaldarichardson.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/01/swirlymms1_applesfera_400px-150x150.jpg" alt="" title="swirlymms1_applesfera_400px" width="150" height="150" class="alignleft size-thumbnail wp-image-788" /></a>I&#8217;m not exactly sure, why they don&#8217;t allow MMS on iPhone. BUT Anyways, I&#8217;ve had this problem before, and I&#8217;m not even on the iPhone plan&#8230; On the web there are many ways to fix this&#8230; that simply don&#8217;t work!</p>
<p>Usually on SwirlyMMS the error you get back is : &#8220;unexpected http response&#8221; &#8211; Many people post that calling AT&#038;T and hoping for the best is all you can do, once it is blocked. NOT TRUE!</p>
<p>Remember, when you use the internet on any phone, AT&#038;T will figure out what device your using. So the solution is simple. I&#8217;m not a phone expert, or a sim card expert. But I think some things are saved to the SIM Card. Thats where I found this idea for the solution.</p>
<p>All you have to do is take your SIM card out of your iPhone, and put it into another AT&#038;T phone. Then on the other phone, just load a few pages on MediaNET, and maybe send a MMS or something. That way some of that phones information is saved to your SIM card (?i think&#8230;) </p>
<p>Anyways, put your SIM card back into your iPhone, and you will be able to send, and receive MMS. That&#8217;s all! You will never run into the http response error again. </p>
