We got the wiki up and running at . 
Please keep it in your bookmarks as we will be busy updating as much content as we can about whatever we find useful. Right now there is a bit of information about emulating a hosts file entry for Windows Mobile by modifying the registry on device. Old info but still useful, especially with some new things I found while using Wireshark.
More to come, stay tuned!
LCD Tweeter
This is a simple little project I’m working on since insomnia has come knocking on my bedroom door once again. The project isn’t complex in anyway so I’m going to try to throw something in that makes this a bit more fun.
Here is the concept:
I have an old liquid crystal display I stole from a Roland D10 that I violently destroyed on stage back in the industrial rock band days. I’ve tested the display and it seems to be functioning still so we’re good there.
Now, I’ve used this display on other projects in the past, for instance I had it displaying my WinAmp artist/song title just for the hell of it. Now I want it to display my twitter feed. What’s more pointless but completely geek certified than a LCD tweeter.
Definitely going to get me some hardcore points at work to have that thing setting on my desk. I will be using the Arduino Duemilanove (ATMEGA 328) and the aforementioned LCD stolen from my vintage synth.
This project is in the works so I will be sure to keep updates running in our Twitter feed and photos as I make progress. Comments are welcome with suggestions but please be constructive.
Forgive the fuzzy pictures. I took these with my HTC Dream’s camera.
For the record, the bit on my soldering gun broke halfway through the construction of this project and I’m too lazy and poor to go get another one, hence the shotty soldering job.
The intent was to hardwire this thumb drive to a microUSB cable for use with USB Control on my Nokia n810. This would allow me to access the thumbdrive as if it were just another removable storage peripheral like the built in slot for the miniSD card. Only problem is that USB Control is giving me an error stating that the USB device is not recognized as a valid disk. I’m looking into this now and will report my findings here.
I learned that the error I was getting was expected, however, this did not resolve the lack of connectivity. I’m starting to lean toward this being an issue with the USB drive and not the software/hardware mod. I’ll try this again later this week with a standard USB drive without the hardware mod and see if the n810 detects it or not. Updates will be posted here as always.
