Jailbreak IOS 5.0.1

Everyone is waiting for this moment that IOS 5/5.0.1 can be jailbroken because an original Iphone is just another phone. Although App store does offer many nice games but somehow, we still need the phone to be jailbroken in order to FULLY UTILIZE it!

There are many tutorials out there where one can easily learn to jailbreak the phone. All you need is a PC! What do you need to do next?

Enter this in your URL:- www.google.com

HAHAHA!

And type this in the google search bar - jailbreak IOS5.0.1 and click on any links that appeared and you can be the next Steve Job's daughter/son! :P

Well, personally I like this website loads, personal preference:- www.redmondpie.com

You can find the step-by-step tutorial here on how to jailbreak!

I sucessfully jailbreak mine was I was working in the office. 1 screen was focusing on my work while the other one was jailbreaking my phone. Everything went well and it was pretty easy I should say!

So I told my baby so and he wanted to jailbreak his too. Who knows.. his was a different story! I spent like 7 hours to turn his phone original to jailbroken phone! I almost wanna hang myself because I did it in the mid of the night! I shall say.. I am such a good gf who knows how to jailbreak and most important I love him so much till I willing to work OT for him to fix his phone!

I had no idea why when I restore his phone to IOS5.0.1, this error 21 popped up. I googled up and down and found out that the phone needs to be in DFU mode in order to avoid this error.

What is DFU mode & how do you get into DFU mode?

DFU mode is a state that you can put your iPhone into where it can interface with iTunes but does not load the iPhone operating system or boot loader (this is what really differs DFU mode from recovery mode). DFU stands for Device Firmware Update.

To get into DFU mode:-

1. First, switch off your phone and make sure that the USB is plugged into the phone and connected to PC
2. Once phone switched off, hold the power button for 3 seconds
3. Then without letting go the power button, hold the home button for approximately 10seconds (beginning of this stage, you will see the apple logo, after awhile, it will be gone and your screen will turned completely black)
4. Next, let go off the power button without letting go the home button for approximately 15seconds

If you are using redsnow, you will be able to follow the steps shown in it. It's pretty easy! The guideline shown on screen is the best among all that I've searched from the web.

And yes, I managed to solve error 21 by what I have mentioned above BUT next, I got error 16! Damn it!

I took few hours to search from google how should I solve this error & of course I found tons but NONE OF THEM are working! :(

This is the most common one:-

If you get a 1600 or 16xx error while trying to restore to a custom 3.1 firmware for iPhone 2G or 3G, try the following :
Try this first instead of entering DFU mode…for 3G
1)UNPLUG ur iphone and turn off
2)Open itunes
3) hold home as u plug in iphone and keep holding until u see itunes logo on ur iphone
4) then SHIFT+restore and locate the custom ipsw
and there u go! (thanks txccu2000).

Until I found one from macrumors forum with the solution that works! Finally I see HOPE!

For MAC:

1. Finder > Go> type in the box"/etc/" no quotes.
2. Copy the "hosts" file to desktop, open with textedit.
3. If at the bottom you have a line with ending with gs.apple.com I believe thats the problem, put a "#" at the beginning before the ip address. That sets that line to be ignored and no 1600 error (if youre on a windows box, use google to help u find the hosts file
4. Use itunes to restore iphone to restore software. Plug in iphone hold alt and click on restore, select the ipsw file that you just downloaded.

Should go through the process restoring you to stock ios.

Apparently this works for me. After that, my baby's phone successfully upgrade from 4.3.3 to 5.0.1!

YEAH!
I thought of sharing this because I hope more people can share the tricks to overcome error 1600 and error 21 so at least they do not have to spend the whole night figure out what to do just like me! :P

Happy jailbreaking and hope this tutorial helps!

Love,

Wi-Fi Leakage

Source: Business University


Wi-Fi is gaining popularity in almost every city in the country all thanks to its low cost implementation and ease to use. Cafe, fast food restaurant and even bank outlets are armed with Wi-Fi connectivity for the convenience of their customers to access to the Internet. All the customer need is to have Wi-Fi device. Home users too, are beginning to switch their home network into a wireless network. This is could eliminate they problem of buying LAN cables and finding suitable place to put it before any mishap of tripping someone.


Source: Home-Network-Help

However, most home user wireless network are without any security. Without security enabled in the wirless network, any Tom and Harry with a Wi-Fi device could happily access to the home network and gaining the Internet Access with a click of scanning on surrounding networks. According to My E-commerce blog, there were several cases in UK where the offender is found guilty in tapping his neighbour's Internet connection via Wi-Fi laptop. Hence, the question arises whether the responsibility of user to protect their own network or it is fall in the hands of the Internet Service Provider.

I personally believe that Malaysian users need to be aware of the importance of security in their Wi-Fi. A quick scan on Bandar Sungai Long using my N95Most users often neglect the instruction given by the Internet Service Provider to place at least a WEP password either in their wireless router. A user must choose a strong password or otherwise a hacker could gain access to the wireless network easily. Besides, users should equipped themselves a firewall software to moniter any unauthorized inbound connections. For a tighter security, one could switch off the broadcasting of the SSID through the router configuration or block any unidentifiable MAC address that are accessing to the home network. Finally, a user should change the administration password for the access to the router configuration. All these steps should be taken in reducing the vulnerability of the wireless home network.

E-government in Malaysia: Its Implementation so far and Citizen’s Adoption Strategies.



E-government is defined as the usage of IT and e-commerce to access to government information and other public services meant for the citizens and businesses. Many countries are implementing e-government including Malaysia. E-government is an effective and efficient way to conduct government business transaction with the public and business as well as within the government itself. In Malaysia, e-government has begun after Multimedia Super Corridor (MSC) was implemented by government.

By implementing e-government, this can enhance the government operation. It also improves the delivery services towards the citizen of Malaysia. In addition, it also improves the accessibility, effectiveness, convenience and the quality of interaction with the citizen and businesses. This will enable the government to be more attentive and responsive towards the nation needs. E-government can improve the speed, the coordination of government policy and so on. There are seven main projects under e-government flagship. It includes Project Monitoring System (SPP II), Human Resource Management Information Systems (HRMIS), Generic Office Environment (GOE), Electronic Procurement (EP), Electronic Services (E-Services), Electronic Labour Exchange (ELX), E-syariah.



Implementing e-government is not an easy task and there are a few barriers that need to overcome. Hence, adopting citizen’s adoption is important during the process. Firstly, service quality. Examples of services quality are the quality of content of the website, the speed of response concerning the citizen’s problems, the prompt solutions of the problems, and the availability of the contact numbers and so on. A good quality service can enhance the customer satisfaction.

Secondly is customer satisfaction. By having the adoption of e-commerce, the customer satisfaction will increase. This is because people do not have to queue up just to pay up the bills or wait longer hours just to enquire some information. All the information can be available in the website. It is a convenient way for the people as they can obtain information just at their finger tips.

Lastly is the website design. The design of the website has to be attractive to the users. In this website, products offerings can be advertise in order to attract the people and to encourage them to use e-government. This is a best tool to communicate with the people and businesses. Not to mention, a ggod security is also crucial. All the users information need to be private and confidential. This will give a higher level of security and thus people will trust e-government as well as the adoption rate will boost up.
