Living Room / Re: Increasing a Cell Phones INTERNAL Memory: Is it possible?
« Last post by Ath on November 11, 2011, 08:51 AM »
Most modern phones are use SOC's (System On a Chip) baked into a single chip-casing. It's quite difficult to open that up, solder in the extra chips if you could get them (you can't), and then close it all firmly. The only phones that aren't built like that are quite old phones these days (~5+ years)

And that's besides the (software) facts Renegade and SJ already mentioned.

The next thing you'd want is to over-clock it to get some extra speed out of it.


Cheapest option is to buy the best phone you can afford, at the time you can't postpone the buy any longer. ;)

N.A.N.Y. 2012 / Re: NANY 2012 Pledge & Release: Tell When Done
« Last post by Ath on November 10, 2011, 10:05 AM »
As I expected, testing 'reveals' that Tell When Done isn't going to work on Client/Server applications. The client isn't busy enough, while waiting for the server to complete, to trick TWD into thinking it's still busy :huh:

Q: Would it be possible to add a/some test(s) for alternate waiting methods, like a wait/busy cursor being active, or some control (avi, gauge) or window being shown (depending on the exe-name), to let TWD know it's still busy? Ofcourse I'll assist in testing 8)

Screenshot Captor / Re: Screenshot Panel Update Problem
« Last post by Ath on November 08, 2011, 01:42 PM »
A few additional but interesting inquiries, to help nail the issue and possibly exclude external causes:
  • Where is the folder holding these screenshots located, on a disk connected through (e)SATA or on a network- or USB- connected disk?
  • Do the files appear with the same speed in Explorer, or does that also take some time?

LaunchBar Commander / Re: LBC+FARR = Metro UI alternative
« Last post by Ath on November 07, 2011, 04:57 PM »
All that,
and some effort went into WinButtons as nudone designed a metro like configuration with borderless buttons and window, and playing a bit with colors and images it comes quite close. The last couple of screenshots show it like that.

« Last post by Ath on November 07, 2011, 03:37 PM »
I'm curious how the activity is measured.
Is it based on CPU load or something else? as I use quite some Client/Server apps, where the load is on the server (ofcourse) so the client isn't very busy, but I still have to wait for it to finish. And there also isn't a wait cursor in all cases.

That's quite useful :Thmbsup:

I have a lot of tasks just like that, and waiting for them to finish, twiddling my thumbs, is quite annoying. I'll try TellWhenDone and report my findings here.

I just can't find comparison images there?
I hadn't especially searched for that feature :-[ there are quite a few nasa.gov sites/pages that host images like that, I'd guessed there would be the comparison pages too, but I'm not sure where to find them :(

Win+G on Windows 7 (and probably Vista) is the key to focus the Desktop Gadgets, so that may interfere here :o

Vitaly, WOW, what a nice and powerful product. :Thmbsup:

I'm not doing a project containing C# at the moment (though I have some lying around), but I'm looking forward to test-drive BugAid, and, depending on funding availability, buying a license.

You're aware that the status pop-up appears as soon as you hover the mouse over the USBSR icon long enough? Might be quite short on some systems, but I wouldn't know how to set the delay. It's responding quite fast on my current system, could be around 150 - 200 msec. and maybe even less. Might be a registry setting, but I couldn't find it.

I'm surprised because so many DC members praised this program.
I'm one of them, I'm very pleased with how easy it integrates with Windows 7 (x64) and how painless it makes the mounting and dismounting of USB aparatus that need to be dismounted.
You must have something hosed on your system, either a weird (unsupported doesn't seem appropriate) or defective USB controller or some drivers acting up in your Windows install.

Btw, I got that same 4.7 from the august giveaway, but only received like 2 or 3 offers to "Upgrade Now" (per account that I got it for :)) with the above post being the last one.

« Last post by Ath on October 29, 2011, 01:24 PM »
may be i will giveup this madness for trying WIn2000 on a new PC

It would help (me that is, or at least clarify) if you could give a reason for trying to install that old, no longer MS-supported, OS on any system.
Even on old hardware I wouldn't install Windows 2000, it'd be either some form of Linux or Win XP, if performance is the bottleneck.
