Using this guide you will be able to update your Garmin GPS system to the latest (2010) map data, all you need is a little bit of patience and careful reading.

What will you need?

• Garmin City Navigator 2010 files (available here). Note: This is the only part of the torrent you need.
• Garmin MapSource v6.15.6
• Garmin Unlocker (available here)
• A Garmin GPS device plugged into your PC

Applying the Update

1) To start things off, install the Garmin Mapsource software on your computer. If you get a message saying no previous software found, do step 2 first and then go back to this step.

2) Run the setup file named “CNNANT2010_10_Update_ENU.msi” from the “IMG” folder in your downloaded city navigator files.

3) Once the software in step 1 and 2 are installed, run the program named Mapsource from Start > All Programs > Garmin. Mapsource will show you a prompt upon launching it asking to unlock the maps, close this prompt window using the red X on the top right corner.

4) Now click on Utilities > Get Unit ID from the menu bar. The program will take a second and display your device’s unit ID (make sure your GPS is plugged into your computer to get this). Copy this unit # number and write it down elsewhere as a safe measure. Once you have the number written down, close this window.

5) Leave Mapsource running (minimize it) and open the Garmin unlocker you downloaded from the link provided before. Put the Unit ID code you wrote down in step 4 in the top most box of the garmin unlocker thats says “Enter your Unit ID here”.

6) Next, in the ‘Select Map Product‘ field select the last option of ‘custom maps’ and enter 450 when prompted and hit OK. Individuals using this guide with the european map files can use the MapID 449

7) Now click on the Generate button located on the bottom of the window next to the Exit button. This will give you the unlock code, copy this code and keep it somewhere accessible. You can exit out of the unlocker now, its work is done.

8 ) Go back to the Mapsource window and from the Utilities menu and select Manage Map Products. Now click the ‘Unlock Regions’ Tab and press the ‘Add’ button. Paste the code you got in step 7 into the ‘Add Unlock Region’ dialog box’s first field, the second field is optional. Hit OK and you have unlocked the map product.

Now you can close Mapsource.

Note: Before moving foward, navigate to the Garmin folder on your device. An icon for your device will be under My Computer. In the Garmin folder you will find a file named “gmapprom”. Backup this file and then delete it from the Garmin device. If you cannot find the exact same file name, look for the biggest file in that folder (it can be anywhere from 500 MB – 1GB).

Now launch MapInstall from Programs > Garmin

9) Mapinstall will ask you for the regions on the map you want to install, choose your desired regions, hit next and then press Finish.

Depending on the amount of map data you choose to put on, the maps will transfer to your device between 30 mins – 1 hour.  Once completed you will have the new 2010 maps on your GPS system, you can also check the maps version on your device via Settings > Maps > Map Info.

*IMPORTANT: Once you modded your wii using this tutorial you shouldn’t update your wii anymore, because this might damage your wii or your homebrew channel may not function anymore. Only install updates from the Homebrew channel itself.
Also don’t update to a higher version to follow the tutorial; Just stick to the version you have now.*

Before we start, you should check your current firmware version of your wii,
Do this by following the next steps:

• Start your wii.
• At the bottom left, you see a button with “wii” on it, press it.
• Go to wii settings
• Top right on your screen you should see your firmware version.

What will you need?

• An internet connection on your wii.
• A copy of Zelda: Twilight Princess
• A SD-card not bigger then 2GB (Non-SDHC).
• A filepack containing all the required files.

The filepack download contains:

• Homebrew channel
• Backup Loader 0.3 gamma
• PC Program: IMGBurn

Getting ISO’s ready for burning:

Allright! you got past the most tricky part of the entire tutorial.

If you are planning on downloading games for you wii, you should keep the following information in mind.

First of all you should check out this site. You have to check 2 things before you download your iso:

• Does result say Working?
• Does 1:1 say Yes or No?

Any game that says working, should actually work. When 1:1 Says Yes, it means you don’t need to patch it; When 1:1 says NO you will have to Patch it. If it says Yes/no Then you can choose.

If 1:1 Says no, you should patch your ISO with “isopatch” included in the rar. Otherwise, just leave the iso.

After downloading your Wii ISO, you have to check if it is completely in order.

• UnRAR wiu1.rar from the pack, and open it. You will have the “w.i.u 1.1″ opened.
• Press “OPEN WII ISO” And locate your iso file.

Next there are 3 things to check:

• Filesize should be displayed GREEN

• Update should be displayed GREEN (If not -> Press Brick blocker Patch update.)

• Region should be NTSC or PAL (NTSC= USA, Pal=Europe) [ If not your region, press the patch button with your region on it.]

When this is done, you are ready to burn your ISO! Here is how to do that:

• Unrar “imgburn” and Install it.

• After installing start the program and select “write image file to disc”

• Insert your empty DVD-R ( Important that it is DVD-R because there are read problems with DVD+R and DVD+RW)

• Where it says source, select your Wii ISO file.

• Press Verify so that it’s enabled

• Your write speed should be set to anything lower then 4x, but we recommend doing it at 1x write speed.

When the burning is complete, insert your dvd into your wii, and launch the Backup Loader. The game will automatically start.

Enjoy!

Pirates of the Amazon works by inserting a direct download link below the title of the product you’re currently viewing. Of course it works with movies and albums, but it also does an admirable job finding software and books.

The download link points directly to the .torrent file, so you won’t even have to view the Pirate Bay page for a particular item.

Instructions:

Prepare your ship in 4 steps:

1. To be able to download BitTorrent you have to have a BitTorrent software installed. Good ones are uTorrent for Windows and Transmission for Mac and Linux.

2. Click this link and click “Install Now” when prompted.

3. Confirm Firefox restart to activate the add-on.

4. Go to amazon and enjoy having the choice between “add to shopping cart” and “download 4 free”.

Original site was taken down by the authorities, but we like choices

First up, why do you need a booster?

Well, it’s not so much a question of why because we all want a faster PC.

This is more a question of WHEN.

If you’ve been running a large application (or several large applications, maybe a game, Photoshop, something like that) the RAM can get taken up quickly. Even when you close down these programs, RAM can still be eaten-up.

You’ll notice this effect at the end of the day. When you first power-up your PC it’s running smoothly, by the end of the day it’s as sluggish as teenager who’s just eaten a whole pizza. Now, you can get various applications to solve this. Some cost a little, some cost a lot. But personally, we like it free. Especially when that free is really quick and easy.

So, here’s what you need to do. It works for both Vista and XP.

Step One: Open up Notepad (it’s in Accessories)

Step Two: Type in MYSTRING=(80000000)

Step Three: Save the file as MEMORY.VBE (or RAM.VBE if you like…just remember the .VBE)

Step Four: Make sure you save the file to your DESKTOP.

Step Five: Just double-click the newly created file on your desktop whenever your PC seems sluggish. It will give your RAM a much needed boost.

If you have less than 128mb of RAM. Change the 80000000 to 160000000 and it should work the same.

That’s it. Quick, simple and a real time-saver. Leave us a line if this worked out for you

Super Monkey Ball sports some great graphics and almost proves itself as one of the best games created for the iPhone. There are over a 100 leves to play which means you might not get bored from this for a while.

So without further delay we would like to offer you the cracked version of this game. We would also like to inform you that this release has not been tested on jailbroken/unlocked iPhone’s running firmware 2.0 which is impossible at the moment for the lack of an unlock out there.

How do you install this game?

1. Make sure you are on firmware 2.0 with OpenSSH installed.

2. Download the Super Monkey Ball Cracked file and extract the .app folder from the archive to your desktop.

3. Create a folder called “Documents” in /var/mobile. Set the permissions to 777

4. Upload the .app folder extracted before to the /Applications folder and set permissions of ALL files inside to 777. Here is a video showing how to do this.

Reboot/Respring and Enjoy!

UPDATE: Haklabs has pioneered the iPhone App Hacking scene and we have developed permanent solutions for cracking all Appstore apps. The method mentioned above is now discontinued and will not possibly work; we still left it there as a reminder of our achievement for all our members and supporters

The method on how to install cracked apps has been updated, here are the instructions:

So, how to install ipa files on an iPhone or iPod Touch?

1. You need to be on jailbroken iPhone with Cydia installed. For this, you may use QuickPwn, PwnageTool, or WinPwn. See my tutorials for on how to jailbreak your iPhone or iPod Touch using any of these tools.

2. Install OpenSSH from Cydia on your iPhone. Click on Cydia and then click Install (Sections)>Networking>OpenSSH then click Install>Confirm (if you get a running out of disk space error click “ok”).

3. Log into WinSCP. The first time you try to login you may get a connection timeout error, click retry several times (up to 20 times!) and it should work. If you still get an error, reboot your iPod/iPhone and try again.

4. Navigate to /private/var/mobile/ folder

5. Set the permission of the Applications folder to 777 (make sure reclusive is checked).

6. Stay in the /private/var/mobile/ folder.

7. Create a folder called “Documents” in the /private/var/mobile/ folder. Make sure to spell “Documents” correctly, with a capital “D”.

8. Set the permission to 777.

9. Navigate to the root level and open the /Applications folder.

10. Create a folder called “Documents” inside the /Applications folder and set permission to 777.

*Note: You will only need to create these two Documents folders once*

11. Go to <root> /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/MobileInstallation.framework

12. Rename the file “MobileInstallation” to “MobileInstallation.bak”

13. Download the patched MobileInstallation file. Note that you have to download the patched file for the firmware you are running. ie. if you are running 2.2, you need the MobileInstallation 2.2 patched file.

14. Place the patched file into the /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/MobileInstallation.framework folder and set the permissions 775 for the patched MobileInstallation file. If there is some type of extension (ie .dylib), then you need to remove that extension.

15. Reboot your iPhone/iPod Touch

16. Download cracked api Games and Apps from appulo.us or any site you prefer.

17. Download at least one App from Apple App Store (Free or Paid). What I do is I download one app from the App Store using iTunes, then I sync my iPhone and reboot it. Then I download one app from the App Store on the iPhone and reboot the phone. THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT: Otherwise you will get an error! [Only need to do this once]

18. Drag and drop the .ipa file you downloaded into the iTunes Application library.

19. Sync your iPhone/iPod Touch and enjoy!

Errors:

The application “XXXXXXX” cannot be opened
Fix: Reboot your iPhone or iPod

0xE800001 Error:

FIX: Change usb port and reboot your iphone/ipod Touch.
If this doesn’t work try going into: Control panel->System->Device Manager->Universal Serie Bus Controller->Right click Apple Mobile Device USB Driver and update driver.

0xE800013 Error:

You get this error when you already have the app
FIX: Simply delete the .app folder that u have ssh’d and reboot.

Plug in your GPS using the USB cord into your computer, open the device, and find a file named gmapprom in the folder named Garmin which will be the biggest file on your GPS at almost 1GB or somewhere around there. Backup this file to your desktop and save it in case something goes wrong, this file has all your old map data. After backing that file up delete it from the GPS.

16) You should now see a screen with the map of North America. Choose the areas you want on your GPS system, the selected areas will turn pink once clicked.

17) Finally click the Finish button. Now the process of building and transferring the maps will begin and this whole process takes about an hour.
