[Gigabyte] BIOS Upgrade on old Gigabyte Motherboards

Mon, 31 Jul 2017 13:00:42 +0000

There are several old Gigabyte Motherboards like the GA-MA Series which uses their BIOS Included Q-Flash Utility for upgrading. This tool tries to access an attached USB Device in a file browser way to give you the choice on which file to flash. Most of the time, you won’t be able to access your drive, as it will only be shown as “Floppy B”. In truth, this means your USB drive is formated the wrong way: You should have only one partition on that stick, with size LESS than 128 MB and FAT as file system. Yeah, I figured that out the hard way ^^’. It will then be shown as “HDD 0-0” in Q-Flash and will provide your files for easy upgrading 🙂

[Docker] Upgrade Sonarqube from 5.6 to 6.2

Fri, 20 Jan 2017 21:57:36 +0000

I just updated Sonarqube from 5.6 (LTS) to 6.2. Before that, I upgraded all my plugins in Sonarqube itself and made an backup of my installation and database. Then, I replaced image: sonarqube:lts-alpine in my docker-compose.yaml with image: sonarqube:6.2-alpine. I did an docker-compose up and it started, however, I had some errors so it just kept on restarting. Following this advice I then proceded to delete $SONAR_HOME/data/es/. I then restarted Sonarqube, which worked. I then pointed my Webbrowser to the URL of my Sonarqube Instance and added an /setup and allowed the Database Upgrade. After that, I had a working new Sonarqube instance :).

[Win7] Upgrade Error in Android SDK for Windows

Mon, 04 Nov 2013 13:21:34 +0000

Recently I got an error on trying to upgrade my Android SDK, claming that I would not be able to access an URL. I was looking around the Internet and got the information that I should first upgrade the Eclipse Plugin. OK!

Upgrading AVT:

In Eclipse go to Help
Install New Software - Add
inside Add Repository write the Name: ADT and Location: https://dl-ssl.google.com/android/eclipse/
after loading you should get Developer Tools and NDK Plugins
check both if you want to use the Native Developer Kit (NDK) in the future or check Developer Tool only
click Next
Finish and Restart Eclipse

HTC Universal

Fri, 01 Apr 2011 09:00:53 +0000

I found a “bricked” HTC Universal without - everything.
So I decided to piece it back together.
First thing to find was an USB Cable to recharge the battery.
Working is an normal Mini USB Cable, even tough the connector looks different.

After that, I found out that the HTC was a brick.
So to unbrick:

get mtty1.42.exe, enter bootloader mode , (Power + Light Bulb + Reset)

Stop Activesync USB connection
Uni : Reboot Bootloader then Connect USB
PC : Run mtty1.42.exe
Choose USB in “Port” (Reconnect if can’t find/reconglize USB and try remove sim and sd card)
type : task 28 55aa
Press Enter
Cause DOC reformatted, so there’s no rom in DOC ,try reflash any rom that you like .

For task 28 55aa in mtty success , will show the message (attachment )
