I thought the mobility center available in windows 7 was going to revolutionary my life. I really thought that by striking the keys

WinKey + X

I was going to have access to all the controls that were most important to me. Turns out I have instant access to all the controls Bill Gates thought I would ever need, with no options to add my own choices such the microphone volume/gain. I can adjust my speaker volume BUT NOT THE MIC. OH THAT’S RIGHT… I’M JUST A DUMB CONSUMER WITH NO BRAINS… WHY WOULD I NEED A MIC!!!!!!
I’m SURE it can be done SOMEHOW. But no instructions are given here:

“Some tiles in Mobility Center are added by your mobile PC manufacturer” BUT NONE WILL BE ADDED BY YOU!!!!

Sit back and enjoy the show friends! Sorry to harsh your vibe. :p

Guys I may have a solution for you. I ran into this exact same problem just now.

Try SSHing into your iPhone/iPod and use the ftp client locally. In other words, SSH in as root and type “ftp localhost”. If you immediately receive an error that mentions something about /usr/share/empty, quit out of ftp (type ‘quit’) and then ‘mkdir /usr/share/empty’.

This fixed the problem for me. Apparently (after reviewing some installation guides for vsftpd), this is one of the things you should have done when you set up vsftpd (it sure would have been nice if the Cydia installer would have done this for us!!).

Hope it helps.

The problem this solves is:
If you have to add some hexadecimal numbers and you don’t have a calculator and you want to avoid converting to decimal, but you aren’t that good in hex yet. Or maybe you are real brain dead but you need to do some adding. THIS IS ALL TO BE DONE ON PAPER WITH A PENCIL. I think the method of notation is clean enough that you will not easily make a mistake. Or maybe you have a teacher that is making you had in hex for a test?

Here is the PDF: How to add in Hexadecimal without a Calculator or Decimal conversions with a Pencil and Paper.

to disable it from starting with windows you get to edit your registry YAY!!

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run

This is a two for one. First I’ll bow down to the person who wrote up the tool chain tutorial and of course props to saurik (I think the foremost hacker of the iPhone). Next, we move on to the necessary movements to get the sshd (openssh) default port moved off of 22. I needed to move it because it seemed like all traffic through port 22 was blocked on my schools’ network. And of course I wanted to ssh into my phone to run my compiler for my C++ class. more »

I don’t know who’s idea this was… but having remote activated beeping flashing luggage seems like a bad idea in this post-code-orange world.

My instructions should be able to get your firefox browser online through your phones data connection. The gist of it is; you wifi into your phone and use that as your rout to the web. This post was written using this setup.
All of the tools used are available online for free, EXCEPT i used windows xp to do the jailbreak.
