ChildBrowser iOS xCode

Today I tried to simplify the ChildBrowser execution in xCode, which I follwed earlier. To my surprise, I don't need to do anything rather than simply ignoring some steps. Here is the procedure:
  1. Download the ChildBrowser plugins here.
  2. Start xCode and create a phonegap-based application.
  3. In Supporting Files > PhoneGap.plist, add under Plugins (click the down arrow to the left of Plugins, then click on the + symbol to open a new row):
    Key: ChildBrowserCommand

    Type: String (default)

    Value: ChildBrowserCommand 
  4. You need to associate your external URLs on this page, too. In Supporting Files > PhoneGap.plist, add them under
    ExternalHosts, like:
    Key: Item 0

    Type: String (default)

    Value:  * or whatever URL you are using in the code(* is enough)
  5. Right-click on the Plugins folder in Xcode and select to “Add Files to…” the folder.
  6. Navigate to the phonegap-plugins > iPhone > Childbrowser folder, and select the ChildBrowser folder. Check “Copy items into. . .” and “Create groups for. . .” A ChildBrowser folder is added to the Plugins folder.

Sample Code:

<html>

<head>

<script type=”text/javascript” charset="utf-8" src=”phonegap.<version>.js”></script>

<script type=”text/javascript” charset="utf-8" src=”ChildBrowser.js”></script>
            <script type=”text/javascript” charset="utf-8">

                        var cb;

                        function onDeviceReady()    {
                                 cb = ChildBrowser.install();
                        }
                        function showChild()  {
                                 cb.showWebPage(“http://google.com”);
                        }

</script>

</head>
<body onload=”onDeviceReady()”>

<a href="#" onclick="showChild()">Click here</a>

</body>
</html>

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. Using WUG Nexus toolkit: Make sure running stock Android 5.0.1 Rooted If necessary, you can reset the IMEI using backups zero IMEI from the archive.
