FREE CALLS TO CANADA and USA

Making real free calls(not VOIP)using any network connection was not that easy till now until one of my friends told me that GREAT technique that i am going to share with you now.(keep this a secret).When he first told me I simply nodded off because I had previously published another post on how to recharge Hutch and Airtel phones without any cost(That was a joke).

When I succeeded with the trick ,we actually started calling more STD and ISD calls at no cost(U.S,Cannada,Malaysia,Germany...)

Technique:

First of all you need an Airtel connection (pre-paid preferred).The trick was to hack theVirtual Calling Card, that lets you make international calls from your mobile.

Dial 1802103 from your mobile and you will hear a welcome message from airtel and an instruction to dial your 10 digit access number.These access number will be changed randomly.I succeeded using the number 000710**** followed by # key(Last 4 digits will be given to only those who sign up and comment ( with their personal mail id due to security reasons).To register click signup link on top right. 

After this you will be asked to enter the 4 digit password number.I used the password ****(removed)followed by#(See the last 4 digits of both the numbers,they are same which made it easier to hack) You also have the option of hacking that 4 numbers by yourself and sharing with us.

You will hear an acceptance tone and an instruction to dial the destination number.STD numbers should start with '0' and ISD numbers with '00'.

Many of my friends are now conferencing accross the whole countries in the world.And you can be a part of it until Airtel blocks it.

Easy method of using free Virtual Calling Card is given below.

Most phones support the “p” and “w” actions. On Nokia phones, if you press the “*” key repeatedly, you will see it change from “*” to “+”, then “p” and “w”.

Put simply, the dialing sequence now becomes: Airtel’s toll-free number 1802103 followed by pause, then the VCC pin and “#”, then a tonewait (for the voice prompt asking you to dial the number), then the telephone number you are trying to call, or

1802103p12345678#w0123#0012345678 (demo)

 

Airtel’s toll-free number is 1802103. The VCC pin is 12345678, and 0123 is the password and the telephone number is 0012345678 (country code, etc.).

{If you are not interested in making free calls the Airtel has calling cards that lets youmake international calls from your mobile. It’s a physical card, but they insist on calling it virtual . Anyway, they offer better rates: with a VCC worth Rs. 561 (including taxes), you get a talktime of Rs. 500 (~ $11), and the charges are Rs. 3.50 per minute.You enjoy complete control on your STD/ISD calling.Denomination as low as Rs 112. Other denominations of Rs 225, Rs 561, & Rs 2245 also available.}

SOLUTION : HOW TO FORMAT NOKIA MOBILE ?


Format Nokia

Format Your Nokia

Formatting a Mobile is one of the easiest task, much simpler that formatting a PC.
But remember , After formatting your Nokia Handset your all data in the handset such as Phonebook, SMS, calender entries will be erased, so better to make there backup before formatting your handsets.

SO THERE ARE THREE WAYS TO FORMAT THE NOKIA HANDSETS. USE ANY ONE OF THEM

1

  • Switch Off your Nokia S60 Mobile handset.
  • Now Press and Hold, these three key at once.
    * Green dial key,
    * Star key (*)
    * Three key (3)
  • Same time press the Power ON/OFF switch of your S60 Nokia handset. DO NOT Leave the Three buttons untill you see the Formatting on screen, or your mobile is switched ON Completely.
  • Now your Nokia S60 Handset is Formatted and ready to use.

2

  • Start your Nokia handset.
  • Enter this code *#7370#
  • Now, it will ask confirmation about the format, Select yes.
  • And again your Nokia is Formatted.

3

  • Download Nokia software updater which is used to update the Firmware of Nokia handsets (S60 and New Models)
  • Just Follow the instruction given in the instruction booklet given with software and format your Nokia
  • Actually this software is used to update the firmware, so even if you have latest firmware it will erase the previous firmware from your handset and will install the new version. so it will get formatted.

Use any one of about three methods, the last one is better but you must have internet connection to format your handset. Please remember : Formatting handset will erase all the data from your handset.


GET SMS UPDATE FOR NEW E-MAIL [GMAIL]



Recently Google labs launched SMS Channel in India. i have created many SMS channel including one for this blog. so i just thought we can use this service for any type of SMS updates using RSS feeds.
Recently i have seen that we can directly get the RSS feeds of GMAIL inbox. so we can use this RSS feeds to get these SMS updates. So if you want your own Gmail inbox SMS channel just put your GMAIL RSS link in SMS channel feed section.
Gmail RSS link will be like this :

https://USERNAME:PASSWORD@gmail.google.com/gmail/feed/atom

But using this link in SMS channel will expose your Password and ID to whole world, so you can use Feedburner service to hide it [Highly recommended] and create your own RSS feed like this

http://feeds.feedburner.com/TheChetan

Just put this RSS link into your SMS channel rss feeds and get SMS alert for Emails. Remember to select “By invitation only” in “Who can subscribe” option else anyone can subscribe to your sms updates and anyone is subscribed can get those SMS for each e-mail.
Currently this service is available only in India as Google SMS channel is only for india. Many indian carriers supports Google SMS channel like Airtel, Vodafone, Idea etc. so you can enjoy this service of SMS update.
But the only drawback is that if anyone got the link to your Gmail rss feeds he/she can read your e-mails directly !!

WORDPRESS DATABASE ERROR MYSQL SERVER HAS GONE AWAY FOR QUERY IN WORDPRESS 2.7


ico_wp_databaseRecently i optimize my Wordpress for performance with many tweaks like deleting useless tables from database. Installed WP-Super cache, etc.
I was checking the error_log file in my Filemanager i was shocked due to its size, it was 14MB large !. I download it and opened it, all the errors were related to Database.
Almost all lines were starting with
WordPress database error MySQL server has gone away for query…..”
and few were like this
WordPress database error Lost connection to MySQL server during query for query…..”

As per the Error statement, the error clearly notifies that the connection between the Wordpress and MySQL database was not proper. I just searched Google and seen many results, then i got the idea that its a General problem for many wordpress users.

Rob given a solution for this problem with few patched files to be replaced, You can read his article “Workaround for WordPress database error“. The article give detailed information about this problem. He also given files to be replaced to solve this problem.

According to him, This error is cause due to improper coordination between database and Wordpress PHP commands.

According to Rob ,

When someone tries to view one of your Wordpress web pages, the PHP code first opens a connection to the MySQL server. Subsequent queries to the MySQL server rely on the connection remaining open, and do not re-open the connection. If the connection to the server happened to have shut down before a query is made, then Wordpress will display this error.

So for that you need to change the value of “wait_timeout” variable, either ask your hosting admin to do it for your else you can do it by your self by tweaking your wordpress file named wp-db.php.

Rob given replacement files for Wordpress upto version 2.6.1 but recently Wordpress 2.7 is released so how to do the patch for Wordpress 2.7 ?

Here i am including the file to be replaced by original “wp-db.php” file for Wordpress 2.7.

Original wp-db.php
Workaround wp-db.php

Make sure you Backup your database and other files.

In above Workaround file, i just added

$this->query("set session wait_timeout=600");

in line number 334 in original file.

So do Check your Error log file today, else this may cause increase in your site loading time.

ENCY SYMBOL AND WIN PRIZE.


currency symbolsMost of the international countries have there own currency symbol like $ (US Dollar), £ (Great Britain pound), € (Euro), ¥ (Japanese Yen), etc etc. There is no official or special symbol for our Indian currency. Generally we use Rs., or INR, or रु or रुपया (Hindi) to represent the Indian rupees. What if you get a chance to design the Indian currency symbol ?

Ministry of Finance, India, recently started a competition for designers or general public to design the Indian currency symbol. So if you have artist in you then start designing the symbol.

To get more detailed information about this competition just download this PDF fromwebsite of the Ministry of Finance, India.

DOWNLOAD PDF
Source : Ministry of Finance, India.

Last date for submittion of entries is 15th April 2009.

According to PDF,

The symbol has to be either in the Indian National Language Script or a visual representation but should be applicable to the standard computer keyboard.

So be ready for new symbol, will it change the current structure of keyboards ? or it will be assigned through ASCII codes !!
This will be interesting to see for people like me :) . As this may create evolution in keyboards system.

NEW APPLE IPOD SHUFFLE 2009 - PROBLEMS


ipod shuffle 2009, apple ipod newRecently Apple Inc. launched the next version or generation of there basic product “iPod Shuffle“.The first iPod shuffle was launched in 2005 and after 1year in 2006 they launched 2nd generation. This is the third generation of iPod which is launched in March 2009,nearly after 3year.

I do not own iPod, but still after looking at its features i can write this post easily :D .
The new iPod shuffle have amazing features like,
VoiceOver technology that allows song names, artist names, album names and playlist contents and names to be spoken in 14 different languages.
Slick design , cool looks, etc etc.

BUT, here are the few problem that i observed in new iPod shuffle.

CONTROLS

Is older iPod Shuffle the controls were built on the device itself, but here in this new version the controls are on the headsets !!

So if you pluged any third party headsets onto your new iPod shuffle then it will still a allow you to listen to songs as as you start iPod, its starts playing the songs. But this time (using third party headsets) you cant control the iPod shuffle. No next, no pause, no volume up-down… nothing ,…

Some future third-party headphones and headphone adapters will include full support for the iPod shuffle. These headphones contain a special Apple authentication chip. Without this chip, third-party headphones are not allowed to interact with the iPod. - Wikipedia

COLORS OPTIONS

The new iPod shuffle comes in only two colors !!old ipod in different colors
Silver and black.. while the older iPod shuffle was available in pink, Green, Blue ,Lavender, Red, Orange, Turquoise, Mint….ooo !!

MEMORY

This iPod shuffle comes only in one memory option which is 4GB while the older iPod was available in 1 and 2 GB options, though this is not the problem but still… :)

But still the looks of new iPod shuffle is really cool, and stylish. Its slick and smart.iPod shuffle is known for its superb sound quality. The brand Apple itself is a identity of trust and the innovations. I hope, soon the Apple will try to remove all those restrictions and problems from there device.

I recommend all iPod lovers to wait before buying this new edition of iPod, soon you will see the iPod with many other colors. :)

If you are not aware of the new iPod features take a look at this video (or visitApple.com/iPodShuffle/).


HOW TO INCREASE SPEED OF BSNL BROADBAND UL750 PLAN.

Router LightsBSNL - India’s number one Telecommunications Company. I am using UL750 plan of BSNL. UL750 means Unlimited plan with monthly rental of 750INR (taxes extra). It provides speed of 256kbps, which is good for normal surfing and small downloads.

I received many e-mails through the contact page about how to increase the speed of this UL750 plan. Even on Orkut many people ask me how to speed up the connection of BSNL.

Today i am not going to tell you any secret or something different here.I will give you few details about how BSNL or any ISP (Internet service provider) calculate the speed of there connections.

According to plan specifications of 750 UL plan, it is provided that the plan will provide bandwidth of 256kbps (note the small kbps).Means you will get the speed around 32KBps (now note the capital KBps).

If you are aware of storage conventions and about the TB,GB,KB,kb etc. Then you must ware of the table below.

Data conversion table :
Bite: 8 bits = 1 byte
Bytes: 1024 bytes = 1 KB
Kilobytes: 1024 KB = 1 MB
Megabytes: 1024 MB = 1 GB…….

THE FACT :

So as BSNL is providing speed of 256kbps which is equivalent to 32KBps !! So if you are getting speed around 30-32KBps while downloading then you are getting best for what you are paying. If you want any such conversions in broadband plans just divide the number by eight. i.e. 256/8 = 32.
