Turn off your Laptop's OR PC's LCD with just One-click.

Turn off your Laptop's OR PC's LCD with just One-click.

A Note from the Author:

There are times when you just want to listen to some music on your notebook/laptop and want the display(LCD) of your notebook to remain off while the lid is still open, while there are small amount of notebook manufacturer’s who provide this simple option of turning off the notebook’s LCD when not in use but many dont. I own a HP DV2799 Special Edition notebook, while its a great notebook in almost every way it still lacks a basic button to switch off the display(LCD) whenever I want to and not only this notebook but also many new & expensive notebooks lacks this option.
This led to me developing my very own small application which turns off my notebook LCD just with one click. I wrote this application in C# using Microsoft Visual Studio 2008. Its basically a simple console based application that makes use of a dll(User32.dll) file from Windows using System.Runtime.InteropServices namespace and then calls the required function.

I am sharing this small and useful application with all of you as a freeware license. You are free to distribute and use this application. I have tested this application on Windows Vista only. Please let us know if it works on earlier versions of Windows.
Icon used in this application is Copyrighted to 2008 Microsoft Corporation.

--> This software is also checked on Windows 8 (64-bit) and works normally.

The home screen

Posted by Unknown Selasa, 21 Juni 2011 0 komentar

Android phones, like Windows PCs, come preloaded with garbage. This includes trial software (Rock Band, Lets Golf 2), redundant software (Verizon vCast Apps), and apps that seem to do nothing except display license agreement (VZ Navigator, Thinkfree Office).

But before I get into that, lets talk about the home screen.

The home screen is missing the basics I came to use every day on my iPhone. These are:

• Calendar

• Notes

• Camera

• Maps

• Weather

They are all probably there, but buried. So what do Samsung and Verizon think are the most important things that belong on your home screen? Mobile Hotspot, Media Hub, Android Market, Verizon Apps, VZ Navigator, and Guided Tour.

I don't expect to use any of these things on a regular basis. The VZ Navigator might make sense, and I get why the Guided Tour is on the home screen. Buying apps isn't something one does regularly. Nor will most people be using their phone as a mobile hotspot. I think the criteria for "most important apps" must be the ones with the longest license agreements.

This is no different from how Microsoft Windows comes out of the box. If you buy from an OEM you get 50 icons in your Start Menu so you will have a tough time figuring out how to write a letter. Fortunately, Android does have a Dock.

The Dock contains Phone, Contacts, Messaging, and Applications. All of those make sense except Applications.

If you have an application and you want to use it, it should go onto one of the available screens. If it isn't on one of those screens, the app should be uninstalled. So I see this button like the Windows "Add/Remove software" button. Other than that purpose, having a button that gives you a disorganized, unsortable list of apps is silly. Apple got this part right - no "applications" button.

Items to resolve:
• How do I take a screen shot?
• What note taking app is on the phone?
