How-To: Set up a home file server using FreeNAS

How-To: Set up a home file server using FreeNAS:
In today's digital world we've all got data, and lots of it. Our libraries are also growing rapidly: where you used to get by setting aside a few bookshelves for your books, CDs, DVDs and VHS tapes, we now require untold server space to preserve our beloved media in digitized form. We also want our data to be itinerant, or at least seem that way. That is, if you want to take a book or disc to another room of your abode, you pull it from the bookshelf and take it with you. Similarly, if you're working on a document upstairs on your desktop and you want to move to the den with your laptop, you'll need the proper infrastructure working in the background to enable that kind of wizardry. So, how can we create this "digital bookshelf?" Can you go out and buy it now? Can you build it in your garage? As it turns out, the answer is "yes" on all counts. You could go out and buy a Drobo device but in this case, we're going to assemble our own. And we're going to do that with the help of an open source storage platform called FreeNAS. So how involved a process is that? Meet us after the break to find out.

[LG] E900 Optimus 7 -- How to Developer Unlock, Relock and keep your device Unlocked (Works in Mango!)

For some reason I have never been able to get the LG Optimus E900h to stay unlocked. The registry editers we currently have in our possesion can not edit the needed keys nor can we use provxml because once again it for some reason will not work on our devices. Here is a 100% way to keep the LG Optimus 7 phone from relocking. Instead of using 3rd party apps we will use the native LG MFG application. Known Bugs:  ChevronWP7 will no longer detect your phone!
