Samsung E215

August 30, 2008

Samsung released a new mobile phone here in Brazil officially called Samsung E215L. It is currently advertised as an exclusive item by Submarino (a brazilian online retailer) and I didn’t find anywhere mentioning about this mobile phone so I decided to post some information.

Samsung released a press release saying that it could be found July 2008 but it was released August 2008.

This is what the sales package has:

Samsung E215 phone
Battery
Charger
Stereo earphone
512MB MicroSD card
User guide
Warranty certificate

It features 19MB of internal memory, a VGA (640×480 pixels) camera, bluetooth and a memory slot to use up to 2GB MicroSD card.

Measuring 91 x 45 x 18mm and weighting 85g can be considered a small phone

The Samsung E215 is a quadriband phone and has an estimated 180 minutes of talk time and 250 standby time and retails for R$349,00.

“Song” was not copied to the iPod “iPod’s name” because it could not be found

April 6, 2008

I ran into this problem and found many solutions involving opening the iTunes Music Library.xml file and deleting the song that caused the error message. I simply looked the music library and didn’t find it. So I searched where it was still referencing and found it in one of the playlists. I unchecked the song and synced again without the error message.

Acer Aspire 5100-3959 restores with FAT32 file system

July 21, 2007

The Acer Aspire that I bought came with two partitions. One for the operating system and the other one for your data.

I recently restored my system and Acer’s restore disk converted the C: partition to FAT32. To convert it to NTFS, open a command prompt (under Start Menu, Acessories) and type the following command:

> convert c: /fs:ntfs

The type of the file system is FAT32.
Enter current volume label for drive C: ACER
Convert cannot run because the volume is in use by another
process. Convert may run if this volume is dismounted first.
ALL OPENED HANDLES TO THIS VOLUME WOULD THEN BE INVALID.
Would you like to force a dismount on this volume? (Y/N) n
Convert cannot gain exclusive access to the C: drive,
so it cannot convert it now. Would you like to
schedule it to be converted the next time the
system restarts (Y/N)? y
The conversion will take place automatically the next time the
system restarts.

Now reboot the system and it will convert the drive auomatically at the next boot.
