Java Diagnostics Tools and Options

Introduction
This chapter introduces the various diagnostic and monitoring tools which can be used with J2SE 5.0.
The tools described here include command line utilities, command line options, and log files.
In almost all cases the command line utilities described in this chapter are either included in the Java
2 Platform Standard Edition Development Kit (JDK 5.0), or are operating system tools and utilities.
Although the JDK 5.0 command line utilities are included in the JDK download, it is important to note
that they can be used to diagnose issues and monitor applications that are deployed with the Java 2
Platform Standard Edition Runtime Environment 5.0 (JRE 5.0).
In general, the diagnostic tools and options described in this chapter use various mechanisms to
obtain the information they report. In many cases the mechanisms are specific to the virtual machine
implementation (5.0 in the case of this document), operating system, and version of each.
Consequently, there is some overlap of the information reported by some of the tools. This should be
viewed in the context of the various problems and issues for which these tools are intended. In many
cases only a subset of the tools will be applicable to an issue at a particular point in time.

Create dynamic sites with PHP & MySQL

This tutorial shows you how to use two open source, cross-platform tools for creating a
dynamic Web site: PHP and MySQL. When we are finished, you will know how dynamic sites
work and how they serve the content, and you will be ready to serve your own dynamic content
from your site.

Krisdayanti


Krisdayanti (born March 24, 1975 in MalangEast Java) is the first Asia Bagus Grand Champion from Indonesia.She then been dubbed asAsia's Nightingale.The first recording that she did was when she was just a 9-year-old girl. For that, she received Rp 15,000 for dubbing theMegaloman soundtrack. Her next album was Burung-Burung Malam. She recorded it at the age of 12. However, her album did not do well.
During her high-school days, she participated in many singing competitions and modeling pageants. In 1991, she became a finalist in Gadis Sampul, a cover girl contest. It was also during that period she met James Sundah and recorded two songs for him. With that, she began to receive many invitations to sing and model.
It was Youngki Suwarno who brought Krisdayanti to an Asia Bagus audition. There, she felt inferior because of her appearance. The other contestants were decked in glittering show dresses whereas she was simply dressed in jeans and T-shirt.
After her winning, she became a star instantly. With eight albums to her credit and a few singles, she has reached superstardom. She is not only known in her country but around the Southeast Asian region as well
She married Anang Hermansyah, Indonesian famous song writersinger and producer, in 1996. They had two kids together, a daughter, Titania Aurelia Hermansyah, and a son, Azriel Hermansyah. The couple filed for divorced in 2009.

Updating OS on bold using VMWARE Fusion

I have a problem and I am hoping that someone here may be able to help with a solution. I have a rogers bold, and I am trying to upgrade the OS to 5.x.x.x on it, and I have gotten an error 507 a few times. Now I know this is not unusual, but my problem is that if I try to update to .464 (bell mobility) or the latest Wind Hellas version (.507?? I think), it will stop and fail right after the it reboots, but when I try to use the rogers OS, it loads no problem. I have deleted the vendor.xml, wiped the blackberry, and tried everything I have read (battery pull, suspending the virtual machine until I get the 507 error) many, many times, to no avail. Has anyone else had an issue with upgrading a certain version, or maybe problems using fusion? Like I said before, I have used fusion many times to upgrade the OS on it, and nothing has changed recently. I can still load the 4.6.x.x version rogers has, but no other ones. Any suggestions?

10 Tips for extending BlackBerry Battery life.

Again, as with our iPhone post a lot of the battery life issues we experience are due to usage habits. Always checking and messaging via FaceBook, twitter and other social networking apps, increased vibrations from third party apps or settings and WiFi/3G data all contribute to reducing battery performance.

Here are 10 tips I'd like to share to help extend your BB's Battery life:
  1. Options Screen/Keyboard Backlight Brightness -> (set to no higher than 50) --My setting: 10-- (effect = high)
  2. Options Screen/Keyboard Auto Dim Backlight -> this setting also brightens the backlight automatically beyond the above setting. Therefore, set above to as low as possible and enable this setting which will auto brighten when needed. 
  3. Options Screen/Keyboard Backlight timeout -> Set to 30 seconds or lower --My setting 20sec-- (effect = medium)
  4. Options Screen/Keyboard LED coverage indicator -> set to off. (effect = low)
  5. Options Screen/Keyboard Key tone -> set to off (effect = low)
  6. Options Screen/Keyboard Audible roll -> set to off (effect = low)
  7. Profiles Advanced (Active) > If vibrate feature is used for phone, sms, IM's BBM's etc. Set Number of Vibrations to no more than 2 and for best battery life 1. (effect = high)
  8. Repeat step 6 for Number of Beeps (e.g set to and set volume tohigh or set as and set volume to medium...) (effect = medium)
  9. Profiles Advanced (Active) -> Set all Out of Holsterprofiles are set to Tone only. As much as possible avoid using vibrate or vibrate+tone for Out of holsterHere is were you'll need to enable repeat notification/LED flashing. (effect = high)
  10. Profiles Advanced (Active) > Repeat Notification -> For those who use a hip-mounted holster set LED flashing to None under the In holster profile. (effect = medium)

BB 9700 Bold - GPS chipset stalls

Got a weird issue. I have a fleet of 9700 Bolds that are running Actsoft Comet Tracker. The software pings my devices for location every 60 seconds. Now these devices are in the hnads of service techs who are in and out of buildings and their cars all day long, so it's common to have no replies to pings for priods of time. Now here is the issue...sometimes the GPS never re-initializes and continues the no-reply to pings even in open sky. The only way to get it back is to pull the battery,m or in extreme circumstances, delete and re-install Comet Tracker.

Anybody have any ideas on the fix? Thanks in advance.
