Weekend, party, automatic updates

April 11th, 2005 at 11:59am

Well, my Nokia 6600 kind of got a new life. I had lot of applications, which I could not remove. So, I formatted it. Its pretty simple to format the cell. Just hold *, 3 and the Green (call) key together, and switch on the phone!… Make sure that your battery is fully charged before you try this. Also, back up all your data!

After that, I also formatted my MMC card. So, my cell was kind of factory fresh. The only problem is, the firmware is a bit old. And, it has all T-Mobile settings in it. So, I need to reflash it (upgrade the firmware) some day. After doing some search, and doing some trail and error stuff, I am now able to connect to the phone using Nokia PC Suite. The connectivity is kind of tricky, but it works fine now. So, now, I can install applications on the phone directly from the PC.

Anyway, the weekend was pretty boring. Was @ home both the days. Got up at 10.30 AM on Saturday and was browsing for most of the day. There was a birthday party in the evening at 4 PM at my uncles house. My cousin had turned 4 a couple of days back, and the party and the cake-cutting ceremony was pending!. Its real fun and excitement for the kids. Cutting the cake, and then getting all the gifts… and the then the best part of opening the gifts got! :). cute. :) Then some other relatives had come down to our house in that evening…

On Saturday, I enabled automatic updates on my home pc, so, right now, its downloading some major stuff at the background. I normally keep the automatic updates turned off since it downloads tons of stuff in the background. I am not too keen on installing sp2, but no other go. :( Its a huge download I guess, around 450 MB+ I am not sure when the download will stop. Anyway, I read somewhere that Microsoft will push sp2 downloads from April 12th onwards. Its kind of compulsory from then on.

Sunday was again kind of a lousy day. Got up late… then net..sleep.. net.. and so on. In the evening, we went out, and @ night ..one more party at one of our relatives house. Kind of get-together. The only problem is, I have been attending quite a lot of parties of late, and my weight is also increasing by the day. Need to start some exercise…………soon.
