Solved the problem of import project in eclipse

Hi users,

I had been facing this issue for sometime. I didn't concentrate much on this issue. Today finally it got solved.

Problem:
Unable to import projects into eclipse

Solution:

• Remove any projects from the workspace with the same name (Cut and Paste in some folder as backup)
• Check whether you have android-8 (min) in your project properties target platform

Note: You can view the existing projects (closed projects also) in your eclipse by clicking on package explorer

Remove the unused projects, name conflict projects.
Please restart the eclipse (File->Restart)
Now, you will be able to import your projects into eclipse.

Note: Please write your comments (or) mail to psrdotcom@gmail.com

BlackBerry mobile/phone is not starting/switching on problem with solution

Hi all,

Today, We were faced one issue like, our BlackBerry is not powering on.

We had connected the mobile with the USB cable for 2 hours. But not at all switching on.


Problem: Phone is not starting
Resolution: Charge the mobile with AC adapter for 1 hour.
Reason: Battery completely drained. So, it requires more power at starting to charge the battery initially.

Don't get scare and don't rush to service center for this small issue.

Please post your comments (or) send mail to psrdotcom@gmail.com for more details.

Digital Cameras in the Budget Range

Hi everyone,

I am posting this one related to digital cameras.

In India most of the users wants the camera just for occasional purpose.

Example: For outing, Home functions etc.

For those basic needs, we can have a budget camera.

These are my opinion on the current cameras in Nikon, Canon and Sony

I think these are best cameras in mid range ..

Below Rs. 5000

Nikon Coolpix L23

Canon Powershot A1200

Below Rs. 6000

Nikon Coolpix L26

Canon A3200 IS

Sony W520

I decided the camera based on the resolution (megapixel) and optical zoom. I don't to go in-depth in deciding the basic camera.

Live CD Ubuntu Customization Kit (UCK) without Internet

Hi friends,

As many of you know that, UCK (Ubuntu Customization Kit) requires Internet when customizing the Live CD.

Why we need Internet while customization?

• To get the updates from the repositories we need the internet.
• To install any software using apt-get/synaptic package manager.

Do we need Internet all the time?

According to me, We may not need the Internet for small updates.

So, I have modified the customization scripts to work without Internet.

Pre-requisites:

Please download the following files.

sources.gz: 

According the ubuntu distro, we need to get the sources.gz from the link

http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu/ubuntu/dists/$DISTRO_CODENAME/main/source/Sources.gz

gfxboot-theme-ubuntu_x.x.x:

http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ubuntu/ubuntu/pool/main/g/gfxboot-theme-ubuntu/

Please place these two files in ~/Softwares/UCK/ directory

Note: ~ is home directory of the user.

Apply Patches

If you installed UCK, you will having the /usr/lib/uck/customization-profiles/localized_cd/ directory

In that directory, you will be having customize and customize_iso scripts.

Those two scripts will be copies to /home//tmp folder while running the UCK.

So, please apply the following patches in /usr/lib/uck/customization-profiles/localized_cd/ 

Now apply the patch as shown below

$ patch -u customize customize.patch

$ patch -u customize_iso customize_iso.patch
