Delete System Folder Trace Left in My Computer by Nokia PC Suite or Sony Ericsson PC Suite

If you are getting a strange system folder in the others category of My Computer. This is due to any 3rd Party Applications like Sony Ericsson PC Suite or Nokia PC Suite. This normally happens after you uninstall the product. Thus, to  remove this system folder you need to do a registry edit.
Goto the following path in regedit and delete the unwanted folder with a random name:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MyComputer\NameSpace

If this doesn't solve your problem then re-install the PC Suite and then remove it by using Revo Unistaller Pro.

Cheers !!!

iPhone/iPod White Apps FieldTest, iOS Diagnostics, AdSheet on Jailbroken Device : Remove Solution

White Apps Problem
I got this strange problem on my jailbroken iPhone 3G (iOS 4.2.1) after updating my apps from the app store. Some white apps/icons appeared automatically. The apps were FieldTest, iOS Diagnostics and AdSheet. You cannot delete these apps by the default method. The problem is due to libhide a thing that lets you hide icons.

There are two ways to solve this problem:

  1. By doing a Hard Reset. To do a hard reset press the Sleep/Wake and Home button for sometime until the Apple logo appears on the screen.
    (Note: This method solves 80% of the iPhone Problems!)

  2. Update libhide via. Cydia and then open SBSettings and click "More", "Mobile Substrate Addons" make sure libhide is toggled on. After this hard reset your iPhone for the changes to take place.
This will help you to get rid of those unknown white apps from your device. Enjoy!

iPhone/iPod Home Button Not Working : Software Solution

My iPhone 3G is giving me some trouble lately. The home button is not working due to some reasons, it only works when pressed hard. Thus, to solve this problem without trying to repair the home button you need to download Activator from your jailbroken device through Cydia. It is available for free download via Big Boss Repository. 

After you've installed Activator you can apply certain gestures, motions to specify your required command. For Example: I am using Double-Tap on Status Bar for Switching Between Apps.


Here's the example, to Activate Switcher when you double tap on  the status bar.


Peace !
