Android 2.0.1 Droid Security Bypass Bug

Jan 11 2010 Published by admin under Software

Well i was reading an article on techcrunch this morning that i found very interesting, apparently there is a bug with the latest version of android for the droid device on verizon. Basically the exploit allows you to bypass a persons security “pattern” and go straight to their home screen. Heres how its done.
1. Have someone call the droid phone

2. Answer the deviceĀ  and then press the back button during the call

3. This will leave you at the android home screen.

You can then go ahead and access anything you would like to on the phone. Google said their working on a patch to fix the issue, but this leaves you to wonder, what are their programmers thinking? Or was this intentional? It seems a little too ironic to believe that some of the best programmers in the world would not have caught on to such a simple issue.

While i was watching computex videos one night, i stumbled across this beautiful case, the silverstone fortress 2. As we all know, silverstone is responsible for some of the most beautiful and (expensive) cases on the market. I fell in love with the unique 90 degree tilt design and i just loved the overall look of the case, so i figured why not buy one, i was getting bored of my old case anyway. So here are the pics, it took about 2 weeks for the case to arrive after i ordered it.

Windows 7 – Enabling “God Mode”

Jan 05 2010 Published by admin under Blog

I was recently reading an article via digg on a secret “God-Mode” option that was included in Windows 7. Basically, it allows you to access pretty much every setting on your computer and it can be very handy if you want to fine tweak anything. Heres how to enable it.

1. Create a new folder

2. Copy and paste this as the name for the folder: GodMode.{ED7BA470-8E54-465E-825C-99712043E01C}

That is all, once you open the folder you should see every setting you need. Use the built-in search function to find what your looking for.
