Re: [Skunkworks] Laptop locked to Safaricom modem
by Shiro Njagi 24 Sep '11

24 Sep '11

It's a Compaq Mini 110c-1100 Actually there are no modem drivers installed, in Device Manager, there is no modem, not even one with the warning mark beside it. I tried installing one but it didn't appear anywhere, setup just ran and then nothing :-( -- Shiro Njagi The idea is to write it so that people hear it and it slides through the brain and goes straight to the heart. ~~Maya Angelou~~

Windows 8 Dev Preview - Anyone Happy
by Odhiambo Washington 24 Sep '11

24 Sep '11

How many of us here have tested the Windows 8 Developer Preview and are any closer to being 'happy'? I've installed it on my laptop that was like 100% happy with Windows 7 and all I can say is "no no". I am not a developer and I know M$ perhaps did not imagine I could test this because of that fact, but here I am... Now I have read this - http://www.zdnet.com/blog/hardware/windows-8-design-flaws-microsoft-must-ad… I must say it's such a great warning - unless MS runs in your blood. Now I must find a way to get back to a USABLE OS. Let's see how that goes on Sunday. Where are guys today though? Were the pubs open since morning?:-) -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I can't hear you -- I'm using the scrambler.

Invention or Wheel recycling
by Nd'wex Common 22 Sep '11

22 Sep '11

Hello Skunks/Skunkettes, Yesterday coincidentally ran into 2good friends who have been working in different parts of the world (China and Germany) in IT. The argument was as the subject matter with regard to technology and the economy. The friend from china was of the idea if you dont know how something is done there are 2ways out either ask the "developer" or simply buy the technology then reverse engineer it after which you can develop your technology using cheaper material and have a clearer understanding of it implementation. The friend from germany was like why go to school only to steal an idea modify and call it your own? Then I pop up a question like here in kenya everything seems messed up where do we get funds to actually manufacture our own without political hoolabaloo? After a long "heated" argument a question was thrown into the works. Every one in the web industry is most likely using cpanel the rest are using other options which are not as effective as cpanel, has anyone in africa attempted to develop an application that can rival cpanel or at best run VPS services without the african/kenyan mentality of million overnight? All looked puzzled for a short while then the friend from germany was like kenyans are either lazy or are busy trying to make money off everything they can lay their hands on. Whats your thought?

Laptop locked to Safaricom modem
by Shiro Njagi 21 Sep '11

21 Sep '11

Hi Skunkworld, I have a colleague whose laptop cannot allow use of an Orange modem. She was using a Safaricom modem previously but when she tries to use the Orange modem, it gives a "No connection" message. She took her laptop and modem back to the store where they tested the modem on another laptop and it was working fine, but on her laptop, it doesn't work. They even used a different orange modem on her laptop to no avail. She bought her laptop from Safaricom. She has since contacted them although they claim that they do not lock laptops. Is it possible that they locked the laptop from using any other modem? -- Shiro Njagi The idea is to write it so that people hear it and it slides through the brain and goes straight to the heart. ~~Maya Angelou~~

OT- How do i create traction from a good story
by matere lusitche 20 Sep '11

20 Sep '11

Hi Guys a couple of months ago some guys from google creative labs came over to the farm to do a short documentary on how people use google search. This link news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/8569125.stm interested them . they did a week of shooting and it was great. my story will be part of six other stories on how people use Google Search to change lives and mine is the only story from Africa. the film will be uploaded on 19th Sep i am told this is potentialy a big deal and alot of media will take an interest in the Story. i hope you will give me tips on how to manage this interest Meanwhile in September and October i will make a tour all over my rural district of lugari in western province using a bicycle and motorcycle. my goal is to generate digital content in over 40 rural markets .obtaining g.p.s locations,phone contacts and pictures for schools,m-pesa outlets,clinics,water points, Exemplary farmers and anything of interest. using the ushahidi platform and my Leo noticeboard idea i hope to create a viable example of the potential of developing rural digital content Examples of possible outcomes -with phone contacts of all primary school maths teachers in the district and all m-pesa outlets we can have district wide test papers delivered in record time -potato farmers are able to purchase the right seed and also to market their produce together i will be sending the link to local T.V and Radio Stations and C.N.B.C ,C.N.N and B.B.C and see how it goes .

I got to test the new Samsung Galaxy Tab at the Samsung Shop along Mama Ngina Street. Im still drooling over it in the office. They plan to sell it next week and cost price will be 89,000 for 16 GB model. ( I wonder why people sell these gadgets in Kenya as if one is paying bride price but thats for another day) However I now know why apple is suing.

Re: [Skunkworks] Zuku down?

Down for me too since yesterday afternoon. Got through to support on the first call yesterday and was told that a node in my area was down and that the team was working on it as a top priority. The node was down last weekend too so this is the second weekend in a row with no internet or TV. Pretty terrible since the weekend is when I'm actually at home and want to use internet and TV.

No net since yesterday. And of course, Zuku customer care have refused to pick up any calls. All I have done is waste my credit. To speak to someone in customer care last night, I had to call Zuku NOC, who had to wake up the person at customer care, who then called me and yawned in my ear. Zuku customer support is actually getting worse, not better. Regard's Brian Ngure

C/C++ tone sequence / screensaver in Linux
by Mike Muraguri 15 Sep '11

15 Sep '11

Hi, I'm looking for a way of playing a tone sequence in C/C++ on a Linux operating system. There's an easy way of going this for J2ME devices where a tone sequence is defined as in this<http://download.oracle.com/javame/config/cldc/opt-pkgs/api/mm/jsr135/javax/…> case. However, in my case, I want this in C/C++. I've tried projects like beep but without much success. Second one, what's the best way to detect "idle time" in C/C++ using pwrap/pwrap2 as the GUI library, how can you start an event if a user not interacting with the particular program say for 5 minutes? Somewhat like what you would do to activate a screensaver prefferably without using hooks and working in Linux. Please give me any leads on this. Thanks. -- Regards, Mike Muraguri Skype: mickie.mic M: + 254 722 799445

Sales and Marketing Bootcamp? Where?
by Timothy Mutugi 12 Sep '11

12 Sep '11

Dear Skunks, Skunkettes, Skunklings (and fellow n00bs), Could someone please tell me of any institution that offers a short Sales & Marketing Course Pap! I am thinking of more like a boot camp to enable someone to appreciate the basic fundamentals of sales and marketing. I realised that I need to grasp these marketing things but I lack the time to sit in a class for several months because my time is occupied elsewhere... I believe this would also help some coders on this list who have developed some lovely apps but are held back kidogo due to lack of some basic marketing skills... I guess it is only fair that you post your suggestions on the list...it will benefit others in the same predicament. Timo.

Re: [Skunkworks] Zuku support contact
by Josh Handley 12 Sep '11

Now I feel bad for having starting all this criticism of Zuku. Besides this one outage it has been quite good. Once in a while the internet goes down for an hour or two but I have yet to find a consumer level ISP in Africa or the US that doesn't have brief outages like that. The speed of the 8mpbs connection is pretty good considering that it is shared. I usually get close to 1mpbs at peak times and have hit 7mpbs at odd hours when no one else is online. They do need to fix their automated phone system and make sure you can get to a live person without the help of skunkworks but I would still recommend the service to my friends. Josh

Senate Passes Major Overhaul of US Patent System – Will Hopefully Curb Patent Trolling
by Kevin Omondi 09 Sep '11

09 Sep '11

Skunks, I hop this bill will provide a fresh new beginning to these patent issues. These patent lawsuits all over the place are becoming quite a debacle. The Senate voted 89-9 to pass a sweeping overhaul of the U.S. patent system today and sent it out to President Obama for his signature. This would be the most significant revision we’ve seen to the aging patent system in over 60 years. The main goal is to streamline the patent process and give the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office the money and manpower they need to get things done in a timely manner. Currently, it takes an average of 3 years to get a patent approved and the UPTO has a backlog of 1.2 million pending patents. Obama had this to say, “Today you passed reform that will speed up the outdated patent process, so that entrepreneurs can turn a new idea into a new business as quickly as possible. That’s the kind of action we need.” The added manpower will translate into more and better trained examiners who will in turn, better judge what patents are getting passed in the first place. This will help avoid the long and costly legal battles we’ve been so much of as of late by preventing companies (like Apple) who use broad and vague patents to sue everyone. Much of the time we have one company suing another over patents they never invented in the first place. More man power = more scrutiny. Big corporations like IBM, Apple, Google, among others are all on board and fully endorse the bill.

Listers, As you are aware Kenya will be hosting the sixth United Nations Internet Governance forum from 27 - 30 September 2011. The last forum was held in Vilnius Lithuania in September 2010 and it marked the end of the initial five year period. There was overwhelming consensus on the need to continue with the forum which brings together stakeholders involved in managing the Internet from governments, civil Society, academia and the technical community on equal footing. Kenya has been an active participant, our very own East African Internet Governance Forum and Kenya Internet Governance forum has provided a model that has been studied and replicated across the world. This is the first time the meeting is being held in Sub-Saharan Africa and we urge all listers to register, the meeting will provide a great opportunity to network with peers from all continents involved in managing the Internet. Registration closes today the 9th of September 2011. To register please visit www.igf.or.ke (Host Country Website) or ( www.intgovforum.org) Thank you Kind Regards -- Barrack O.

Re: [Skunkworks] Installing Native Apps on SD
by Josh Handley 09 Sep '11

09 Sep '11

The stock Android apps are stored in /system/app instead of /data/app where your installed apps are stored. /system is a read-only partition so in order to remove anything from it you will need root on the phone in order to remount it as writeable. That said you would only need temporary root access. Most people root their Android phones by getting temporary root access and flashing a custom recovery image and ROM so that have permanent root access. It also possible to get root access once, make whatever changes you need and then reboot the phone and no longer have root. This can be done on the Idiot with a number of different exploits that you can find via Google such as psneuter or rageagainstthecage. You basically copy the exploit to your phone using ADB and then run it and then you log into the phone with ADB shell as root. With root you can remount the /system partition as writeable using ADB remount. I have gotten as far as removing some of the stock apps from the phone this way. Once the system partition is writeable you can delete apps from the phone using ADB shell by deleting the .apk and .odex files (e.g. rm /system/app/GenieWidget.apk). I did this just to reduce the amount of stuff in the app tray so I haven't tried to reinstall them on the SD card. It might be possible instead to copy to the apps you want to remove to your PC using ADB pull, then delete them from the phone as above and finally reinstall them after setting the install location to the SD card using pm. I'm not sure that this would work but you never know. Even if it does work, I'm not sure it would actually you save you any space on your phone since /system is separate partition from /data and /data is probably where you are running out of space. To take advantage of the space freed up by deleting the apps you would have to repartition the phone to reduce the size of /system and increase the size of /data which I think would be quite a challenge and probably quite risky. WARNING: any time you try to hack your phone like this you risk really messing it up so be careful and don't blame me if something goes wrong. If you do get into trouble you can always restore your phone to its original factory state by downloading the firmware image and reinstalling it from the SD card. You can get the original Safaricom firmware from http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/index.php?title=Huawei_U8150_IDEOS. However this will wipe all your data from the phone. Josh

cell phone data signal boosters
by Josh Handley 08 Sep '11

08 Sep '11

Anyone have any recommendations for devices/add-ons that can boost data signal for a cell phone? In particular something that would work with the Idiot. We are finding that in certain locations the data signal is too weak. Ideally something that doesn't require an additional power source or at can run on a small battery. We found something that can plug into a car that works great but most of our field staff don't have access to a car. Thanks, Josh

21Mbps 3G on Orange
by Odhiambo Washington 06 Sep '11

06 Sep '11

Hello Skunks, Since the Huawei E1820 modem (which I already have) does HSUPA data service of up to 5.76 and HSDPA data service of up to 21.6 Mbps, which I suppose is what the much publicized Orange network will do, and given that the E1820 is unlocked by default, am I right in my thinking that for me to use the Orange network, I really did not have to buy their ZTE (I am guessing their is a ZTE MF668 Modem or equiv) modem, but only buy a GSM SIM Card from them in order to use their 3G network?? If yes, and I am gonna test it as soon as I land back in NBI, then I must be having a modem at hand to sell - at cost KES 3.5k) :-) -- Best regards, Odhiambo WASHINGTON, Nairobi,KE +254733744121/+254722743223 _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ I can't hear you -- I'm using the scrambler.

Photo | Courtesy By James Ratemo, jratemo(a)ke.nationmedia.com (email the author<http://www.businessdailyafrica.com/Corporate+News/KDN+unveils++state+of+the…> ) Posted Tuesday, September 6 2011 at 12:24 IN SUMMARY It is expected that the KDN data centre will relieve the region from having to seek data back-up services in Europe and America.ICT experts say many companies spend between two to four per cent of their budget on disaster recovery planning. Completion of the data storage facility is therefore expected to save the companies from losses and damage resulting from interruptions of their infrastructure and data. Share This Story Share<http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.businessdailyafrica.c…> Kenya Data Networks (KDN) has finally unveiled its state-of-the art eco-friendly data centre which will serve East and Central Africa. Located at Sameer Park, off Mombasa Road, the data centre is proposed for hosting data and software applications to serve international and local businesses. It is expected that the centre will relieve the region from having to seek data back-up services in Europe and America. “The data centre is a unique facility offering reliability and convenience for corporate clients and financial institutions looking for international standards…the centre offers world-class services while guaranteeing safety of the data stored in it,” said Mr Rikus Matthyser, KDN CEO. Mr Matthyser said the centre is targeted at a global market focusing mainly to host services for clients in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda, Burundi and also international Telecoms with need for ‘point of presence solution’. KDN Data centre Manager Johan Badenhorst said the facility would provide physical space for use by customers with hardware equipment that provide communication and application services to end users. “The product scope is limited to providing physical space, sufficient dual input power, elaborate security system and sufficient room air conditioning…the data centre is offered as a ready to use server room space with adequate and redundant power cooling and fire suppression to ensure full time operation of communication equipments that run critical services to end-users,” said Mr Badenhorst. Breaking ground for the over Sh600milliion centre in December 2009 Kenya Prime Minister, Raila Odinga said the Government was keen on making Kenya a green economy by 2020 thus the KDN eco-friendly data centre was complementing that vision. Powered by solar energy, the data centre shall serve Kenya, and other African countries willing to safeguard essential data under a world class, secure environment. Technology employed in building the centre will ensure the structure can withstand even a bomb attack. The centre is classified at security level seven, which is the highest in the world; similar to that used by United Nations and top intelligence agencies across the world to secure data. The data centre will cut gas emissions and energy use through an improved architectural design and use of latest solar-power technology to provide the energy requirements of the facility. According Mr Badenhorst the data centre is designed for disaster recovery and hosting mission-critical computer systems with fully redundant systems, and compartmentalised security zones. ICT experts say many companies spend between two to four per cent of their budget on disaster recovery planning. Completion of the data storage facility is therefore expected to save the companies from losses and damage resulting from interruptions of their infrastructure and data. KDN also partnered with Teldor Cables & Systems to supply and deploy a fibre optic network to be used in the new data centre. Teldor Cables works through a local partner, Amiran Communications, a Telecommunications Company. In this partnership Teldor C&S design, supplied components, supported a Building Management Systems and undertook a fibre optic network layout within the data centre.

Android Now Owns 42% of Smartphone Marketshare – comScore
by Kevin Omondi 06 Sep '11

06 Sep '11

Some interesting statistics on US mobile OS market share Android just keeps getting bigger by the minute. This is proven by a recent report on U.S. mobile phone key trends made my comScore, a respected name in the digital metrics. As of July 2011, Google has reached up to 41.8% of the smartphone users in the United States, a 5.4% increase from their April 2011 share of 36.4%. Its closest competitor Apple also has gain ground at 27%, a 1% increase from their share last April. The casualties of Google’s and Android’s increases are obviously RIM, Microsoft, and Symbian, dropping 4%, 1%, and 0.4%, respectively, of their previous market share from April. Aside from smartphone market share, the study also reports market share of mobile manufacturers (both smartphone and non-smartphone). Samsung is still ranked as the top original equipment manufacturer (OEM) with over a quarter of the total mobile phone market, followed by LG with over a fifth. Motorola (#3) and RIM (#5) suffered minimal losses, while Apple strengthens its position at #4. The report also reflects the present mobile content usage in the US, with text messaging (70%) still the top activity for mobile subscribers. Web browsing (41.1%) continues to gain ground, as well as downloading apps (40.6%), social networking (30.1%), playing games (27.8%), and listening to music (20.3%). The study involved more than 30,000 US mobile subscribers and done from May to July 2011. In the same three month average period, comScore discovered that over 234 million Americans ages 13 and above owned mobile devices, and 82.2 million own smartphones, up by 10 percent from April. This is an interesting turnout, as the top smartphone operating systems Android and iOS are steadily gaining ground, and non-smartphone users are expected to jump ship and use smartphones in the near future.

If Nokia Valued The African Consumer, Why Launch Dumb Phones Here?
by Kevin Omondi 06 Sep '11

06 Sep '11

I really concur with this article by Robert Alai of Techmtaa I hear that 8 Nokia executives were in Nairobi “to listen to African consumer’. They were also here to launch the two phones, Nokia 100/101, which are single and dual-sim respectively. The last time Nokia executives were here was sometime in June 2010<http://techmtaa.com/2010/06/03/nokia-launches-4-budget-phones-and-bicycle-c…> when they ended up even launching an innovation which they stole for some smart young Kenyans. So today the 8 wolves came back and this time they claimed that the “Nokia 101 & X1-01 were conceptualized in Nokia research centre in Nairobi”. So? We are suppose to celebrate for that? They should have been manufactured here then. During the June[image: June reviews]<http://www.blippr.com/music/songs/375081-June> 2010 launch, the 4 low-budget phones unveiled were suppose to be available in this market early enough. Most of the phones just arrived in this market this year or in November[image: November reviews]<http://www.blippr.com/music/songs/458002-November> 2010. And I wonder why Nokia has this mentality that Africans[image: Africans reviews] <http://www.blippr.com/music/songs/374832-Africans> are some primitive, skin covered know-nothings whose best technology can only be some dumb phones which are priced 3 times as expensive as their counterparts from other manufacturers. Who advises Nokia on such? Can’t we see Nokia launch the E or N series phones in Nairobi, Johannesburg, Cairo[image: Cairo reviews] <http://www.blippr.com/music/songs/492734-Cairo> or even Bamako? Are Africans just backward to Nokia? If you heard some of the MCs Nokia had to make look African here<http://ihub.co.ke/downloads/mary_mcdowell_fireside_chat_at_ihub_nairobi.mp3> talk about Africa[image: Africa reviews]<http://www.blippr.com/music/songs/366685-Africa> like it is one country. We can vouch for technology as one continent but Africans are not living in stone age and don’t need any favours from anyone. If Nokia was to take the continent serious, it would address the market problems like offering operator billing like they do in New Zealand, UK and other parts of Europe. Just today, the Daily Telegraph reported<http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/mobile-phones/8720668/Operator-billin…> how operator billing has doubled up apps sales in UK. We have cheaper dual-sim phones from the OEM vendors like Tecno, TechCom and Zedd Mobile. Their prices range from Ksh 2,500 to Ksh 4,600 which is cheap compared to the Ksh 3,000 to Ksh 8,000 range for Nokia *Dabo Dabo* phones. The Ksh 4,500 TechCom and Zedd Mobile phones are great and match the Ksh 12,000 Nokia smartphones like X2. Nokia is nowadays selling a name. Nokia is basically the Barclays Bank of mobile phone in Kenya[image: Kenya reviews]<http://www.blippr.com/music/albums/476431-Kenya>. Tecno, TechCom and Zedd Mobile are the Equity to the African consumer. I wont bet on Nokia giving African serious though if not only to dump the 2003 technology into the market. Nothing is innovative on the phones and they are much dangerous to out environment than any others. The technology used to make them is more than a decade old.
