lxsplit : split and join files

lxSplit is a simple tool for splitting files and joining the splitted files on unix-like platforms, such as Linux, FreeBSD, OpenBSD, etc.

lxSplit splits and merges files with the -s and -j flags respectively. Starting with version 0.2.1, lxSplit can handle large files (>= 4 GB) both when splitting and joining.

It can be installed from the ubuntu software centre.

Usage:
To split a big file into smaller pieces of 15 MB each, run the following command:
lxsplit -s hugefile.bin 15M
Output size can be given in (M)egabytes, (k)ilobytes and (b)ytes.

To merge (join) the already split pieces into the original big file, run this command:
 lxsplit -j smallfiles.bin.001
All resulting files (from either splitting or joining) will be placed in the current directory.

Tried many solutions (resetting the phone, clearing cache, even installing fresh OS), but none came to my rescue. Thanks to a guy (sorry for not crediting), who uploaded instructions in Russian language, and with the help of Google Translate, my phone is up and running again. Note: Before proceeding any further, keep in mind that you need IMEI of your phone (check on back panel) Download related files from here .

Mac Yosemite : Ugly turned out to be Uglier and Ugliest

You might have read my review on Mac OSX Yosemite , The Good, bad and ugly. Now it turned out to be UGLIEST. No more words. Here's the image. If you are on Yosemite, you might be familiar with it. Most of the times, you get stuck on boot logo. I've seen complaints regarding it saying that fellow members are ignorant of it and they deny such possibility, even though many are still facing it. Workarounds suggested by our online friends: Just reboot your mac as many times it takes to your desktop. Boot into safe mode, by holding SHIFT and then reboot. Comment your workaround below, mine is the first one. If you are still on Mavericks, be there till Apple provides a fix for this.
