Well in my last post, we told you about the different phones that can be modded. Now it’s time for some real modding. Today we are going to learn some basics of Sone Ericsson Modding. Please keep in mind that this guide covers both DB 2010/12 and DB 2020 but excludes DB 3150 phones. Please refer to this POST to know which DB series your phone belongs to.
First of all you need to install Sony Ericsson PC Suite and after that please download the USB Drivers from here. Extract the files in any folder on your desktop. Now switch off your phone and press C and then connect the wire which you use to connect to your phone to your PC. Then a new dialog box will pop-up saying new Hardware Found.

In the software domain, especially in that of Linux, Wine needs no introduction. It is one of the most popular software that a Linux user uses. For those who don’t know what Wine is, here is a brief introduction about this wonderful piece of product.
Wine is a translation layer (a program loader) capable of running Windows applications on Linux and other POSIX compatible operating systems. Windows programs running in Wine act as native programs would, running without the performance or memory usage penalties of an emulator, with a similar look and feel to other applications on your desktop.
Today, Wine took another step in the history with the commencement of its new version “1.0-rc2″. This release is a free execution of Windows on UNIX. Basically, the new version comes up with an ample amount of bug fixes. A brief list of changes can be found below.

Even though GTA IV was launched the past month, it did not help either Play station 3 or Xbox360 to overtake Wii in terms of sales. Wii sold 714,000 units in April while Nintendo DS sold 414,000 units. Xbox360 was just slightly ahead of Play station 3 selling 188,000 units while Play station 3 sold 187,100 units. Both the consoles sales were down by a huge margin compared to the sales in March where Xbox360 sold 262,000 and Play station 3 sold 257,000 units.
Sony was quite happy with the sales figure and Jack Tretton, CEO of SCEA said “Clearly, the tremendous legacy of Grand Theft Auto on PlayStation, combined with the blockbuster launch of Gran Turismo 5 Prologue packed a one-two punch with consumers at retail this month. The proof is in the numbers and, in April, PlayStation 3 hardware sales experienced a 127% increase over April of last year”. Play station 2 was also alive selling 124,000 units.
GTA IV was the top selling game for the month (no surprises) and Mario Kart Wii took the 2nd place.
