Finally Etisalat (UAE) and Mobaily (KSA) announced about making contract with “Apple” to release the iPhone 3G in UAE and KSA.

They will talk more about it soon.. they didn’t say much about it yet.. but they did confirm that they will release the iPhone, I use iPhone and using sim-unlocker so its not that big deal to me not saying I don’t suffer from the bad signal.. and signal lost some times.. and many people telling me that my phone is off.. so some times its a signal lost, and ofcourse this time we finally can enjoy the warranty.

Whats I’m wishing for that they provide services specially for iPhones like that they did for BlackBerys.

Baseband unlocked by dev-team

Finally after long waiting for the base band unlock, Since many people have upgraded their iPhone’s to the new 2.2 Firmware with the 2.28 baseband including my self.

How ever who ever upgraded to the latest 2.2 firmware wont get signal at all. since the new baseband locks it.

So basically the iPhone will turn into iPod touch.

Even thought the Dev-team warned us from upgrading to the 2.2 Firmware until they get us a costume version without the 2.28 baseband.

After it the Dev-Team were working so hard to get us a solution for the baseband lock.

Now the Dev-Team announced that they have completed their software and ready to use, keep in mind its still in beta version.


Question: How to download the software? and is it 100% success chance to unlock my iPhone baseband?

Answer:  You must have an unlocked iPhone and 2.2frimware with 2.28 base band, you can download it via Cydia. by adding this source, and its not 100% that might work for you, cause they still fixing the software issues.


once again thanks Dev-Team for the amazing work you’ve done.

Can you run it?

So yeah we all love to try new games.

But before buying the game or installing it, have you thought if your PC will run that game smoothly?

I brought you the solution for that :)

Just enter this website : Can You Run it?

Question: How to use it?

Answer: Just pick up a game from the list, may ask that it will need to download something, then test will begin.

Then it will show you the result if your system pass it or no,

It will search for what hardware you are using and will show you the fill result, CPU, Video card, Ram and other results.

Pass! rise your head

your PC didn’t pass :(

Hardware: Hard Disk Drive (HDD)

Hello,

today I will try to explain what is the Hard Disk Drive (HDD)

A hard disk drive (HDD), commonly referred to as a hard drive or hard disk

Capacity of a hard disk drive is usually quoted in gigabytes ( 1GB= 1024MB) and terabytes (1TB=1024GB). Older HDDs quoted their smaller Capacities in megabytes, some of the first drives for PCs being just 5 or 10 MB.

But today we got up to 1 terabytes HDDs ( 1TB = 1024GB )

Hard disk drives used to be massive size. but with the technology they became so small and it has more capacity

Hard Disk’s comes in models and speeds

HDD Models:

Currently most used is ATA and SATA.

ATA ( AT Attachment ) is the current standard, it uses regular molex power connectors and IDE (Integrated Drive Electronics) cables.

SATA ( Serial Advanced Technology Attachment ) is a newer product (also SATA2) – it is faster than ATA and uses different cables – much thinner and neater.

IDE Cabel SATA Cabel

HDD Speed:
Also take into consideration the Round Per Min (RPM) of the drive, 5400 is a bit slow, 7200 is good, 10,000 is fast but can be quite noisy.

Servers generally use 10k rpm SCSI hard drives, but SCSI is unusual in home computers.

Today many people use Extrenal HDD’s for their Data needs.

An external hard disk drive is a type of hard disk drive which is externally connected to a computer. Modern entries into the market consist of standard SATA, IDE, or SCSI hard drives in portable disk enclosures with SCSI, USB, IEEE 1394 Firewire, eSATA client interfaces to connect to the host computer.

I hope that you learn something new about this

And I guess we explained the basic information about the HDD.

Hardware: Random Access Memory (RAM)

I bet we all heard the word “RAM” right? lets find out more about it.

Random Access Memory (RAM) gives space for your PC to makes it read and write data so it could be used by the CPU (Central Processing Unit).

When you add more ram to your PC, you will reduce the amount of times your CPU that must to read data from your HDD ( Hard Disk Drive). This will make your PC work much faster, as RAM is many times faster than a hard disk drive(HDD).

RAM is volatile, so data stored in RAM stays there only as long as your computer is running. As soon as you turn the computer off, the data stored in RAM disappears.
