Anything can go here, in any language. except my native language Sinhala. Be cool. anybody is warmly welcomed! K770i Camera Problem [ SOLVED ]. I'm using a Sony Ericsson K770i for more than 1½ years. Since I'm a novice and hobbist photographer my choice was that cameraphone. First, I thought this could be a software problem. So I reinstalled the phone's software. But no luck. Then I googled for similar issues and Google took me to this forum discussion. But it also says the same thing. Casually I found it.

Anything can go here, in any language. except my native language Sinhala. Be cool. anybody is warmly welcomed! K770i, Photography and Sorting Problem. Hi fellas, after few days. I'm back again with some cool cool stuff. My internship is over. and now I look for new career opportunities. Anyhow, I was not so quick to apply for a new job like others did. After completing my internship, I wanted a 'free time' of just one or two weeks to have a tour around Sri Lanka. I have been using a Sony Ericsson K770i.

As most of my readers know my day-to-day desktop OS is Ubuntu (Linux). However I still use Windows (on VirtualBox) in certain cases, usually software testing. These days I'm involved in some work that involve 'eavesdropping' on COM port for nothing but පිටිපස්සේ අමාරුව. :P. So that's how BSOD in Windows Se7en on VirtualBox! It's not really blue :P ). What now, Mobitel?

Hi folks, since I wrote my last post on a malware attack. That I had to defend, still didn't find any interesting technological stuff to work on.

Not so away from the shore.
