ChildBrowser Android

First you need to get ready with the phonegap running properly.It's here. First download the source from here

Now follow these procedure:
 1. To install the plugin, move www/childbrowser.js to your project's www folder and include a reference to it in your html file after phonegap<version>.js.

<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="phonegap<version>.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="childbrowser.js"></script>
2. Copy the image files folder www/childbrowser to your project's www folder.Here you can edit the code or add any other files, but keep the folder named "ChildBrowser" as it is. Because, it is being referenced from others locations.
3. Create a directory within your project called "src/com/phonegap/plugins/childBrowser" and copy "src/com/phonegap/plugins/childBrowser/ChildBrowser.java" into it.

3.1. If you would like to add these folder(childBrowser folder with file ChildBrowser.java) into your existing 'src' folder, then there are some minor changes. Open ChildBrowser.java and change the package name to the relevant one.
4. In your res/xml/plugins.xml file add the following line:

<plugin name="ChildBrowser" value="com.phonegap.plugins.childBrowser.ChildBrowser"/>

4.1. If you followed the step-3.1, ie., if you added the folder elsewhere, change the "value" tag.

5. Customize the links as per your need and build the project.

Karabiner: Mouse/keyboard customizer for OS X

For beginners, or the one who migrated from Windows environment, Natural Gestures (Scrolling and Swiping) might be bit confusing. But, once you get familiarized with them, it may feel like "What was I doing, all those days?". It all changed, when I connected external mouse to my Macbook. When you start using that WHEEL, you will be confused. Luckily there is a setting for mouse, to change scroll behavior (natural or the other way). But, here's the catch. If you toggle that setting, it also toggles the same for TRACKPAD!!!!! I've seen that many people were freaked out and even raised BUG report to Apple. But, all those reports were closed, saying that is not a bug, but intentional feature!!! For those, who can't leave with such one-sided settings, here is a simple util, which came to my rescue: Karabiner It's simple, powerful and stable mouse/keyboard customizer for OSX. Without going into much detail, here's the configuration I used to ret...

Nexus 5 : IMEI 0 issue

Sometime back, an update (believe me, an OTA update) blocked all network calls on my mobile. After struggling for a while, I came to know that IMEI of my phone was set to 0. 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 . Here is the procedure that I've followed: Install the LG driver LG Install QPST Copy the entire folder EFS Professional to C drive Unpack the archive Nexus5 the root of drive C.
