SE Phone Explorer

If you are using Sony-Erriccson, congratulation!!!, because "My Phone Explorer" (MPE) has launch. What is MPE? this is a software like "mobi mb" which allows you to connect between your phone to computer with more powerfull and usefull than standart Sony Ericsson PC Suite.


Find My Phone Explorer in Google here:



Here, you can send or read sms, do sync, making a call, look up your phone book, and another features which makes your computer seems to be your SE Phone!!. and you know? This one is a freeware, you don't have to be affraid to buy it. However, you still need to install your PC Suite for driver and to do a syncronization.



Make sure your phone has connected in Normal Mode (Not File Transfer mode) to your computer before you start your MPE (make sure too that your phone working with computer, find out it with try to connect your SE with PC Suite). Then, press "File" and "Connect". The indicator bar will display. If your phone connected succesfully, your phone status will appear in bottom of MPE Program, not in taskbar like PC Suite.



At the first time, MPE maybe asked you to do a syncronising, just do it to capture your phone book and the other. After successed, you can straight to use it and dont remember to syncronise as refresh if you found the information in MPE like phone book, sms, etc, is different with what is in your phone now.



Oh, one more. There is some nice tools in "Extras", one of them is Backup Services. Just like PC Suite which allows you to back up your phone, MPE is also can be usefull to do this..

Have Fun!!!

Windows Command Prompt (part 7)

  • FIND. Allows you to search for text within a file. Although MS-DOS itself is not case sensitive, when typing in the string that you are looking for with the find command, it is case sensitive.

    Additionally, this command is used to find text within a file, not the actual file itself. If you are wanting to search or find a file with a particular name, use the dir command. There are some parameters, /V to displays all lines NOT containing the specified string, /C to displays only the count of lines containing the string, /N to displays line numbers with the displayed lines, and /I to ignores the case of characters when searching for the string.

    For example:

find /c "REM" c:\autoexec.bat, The above example would find any "REM" statement in the autoexec.bat. or:

find "mate" *.txt, Next this example searches for any text file (.txt) that contains the text hope in the current directory. Below is an example of the output you may see

  • FINDSTR. The findstr command is short for find string and is a command used in MS-DOS to locate files containing a specific string of plain text. There are so many parameters that you can use, it’s better to improve yourself to try on it one by one, makes you smarter :). However, I will give some example how to use this command

findstr "computer mate" myfile.txt

In the above example, any lines containing "computer mate" would be printed to the screen.

findstr /s "computer mate" *.txt

Similar to the first example, the above example would find any lines containing "computer mate" in any txt file in the current directory and all sub directories

findstr /x /c:"computer mate" *.txt

Match .txt files that contain an exact match on "computer mate"; therefore, files that contain "computer mates" or other non-exact matches will not be displayed. It is important to realize that using /x must be a line that exactly matches "computer mate"; in other words, if anything else is on the same line, it's not an exact match.

findstr /n /i /c:"computer mate" *

Search for any file containing "computer mate" regardless of its case and display the line where the text is found.

  • FORMAT. This command use to re-format or erase all information in disk. I will just explain the format recovery disk in CMD, since doing format with click in windows explorer is more easy and get the same result, everyone prefer to use click than type :p.

format a:

Would erase all the contents off a disk. Commonly used on a diskette that has not been formatted or on a diskette you wish to erase.

format a: /q

Quickly erases all the contents of a floppy diskette. Commonly used to quickly erase all information on the diskette.

format c:

This would erase all the contents of your C: hard disk drive. In other words, unless you wish to erase all your computer's information, this command should not be done unless you're planning to start over.

  • FTYPE. This command use equal with ASSOC. If assoc is showing what extension does that mean, FTYPE use to modified it. This was a little hard for me to understand :p.
aaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :P

Windows Command Prompt (part 6)

No more words to say, let’s movin..

  • DOSKEY, is a MS-DOS utility that allows a user to keep a history of commands used on the computer. This allows frequently used commands to be used without having to type the commands in each time you need to use it. By default, CMD is automaticly starts doskey, so you can straightly use up or down arrow to displays your command history. There are keyboard shortcut that you can use, press F7 to overview history, F8 to search command history, and “alt” + F7 to clear history

  • ECHO. Echo is used to repeat the text typed in back to the screen and/or can be used to echo to a peripheral on the computer, such as a COM port. Type echo without parameters to show current echo setting.

  • ENDLOCAL. Stops the localization of the environment changes enabled by the setlocal command. Ends localization of environment changes in a batch file. Environment changes made after ENDLOCAL has been issued are not local to the batch file; the previous settings are not restored on termination of the batch file.

    If Command Extensions are enabled ENDLOCAL changes as follows:
    If the corresponding SETLOCAL enable or disabled command extensions using the new ENABLEEXTENSIONS or DISABLEEXTENSIONS options, then after the ENDLOCAL, the enabled/disabled state of command extensions will be restored to what it was prior to the matching SETLOCAL command execution.

  • ERASE. This command is exactly same with DEL, just different name.

  • EXIT. Quits the CMD.exe program (command interpreter) or the current batch script. Just type “exit”, and your cmd will disappear.

  • FC. Or file compare, is used to compare two files against each other. Once completed, fc will return lines which differ between the two files. If no lines differ, you will receive a message indicating no differences encountered. For example:
    fc c:\autoexec.bat c:\config.sys,
    Give a file comparison between the the config.sys and the autoexec.bat in the current directory.
    fc c:\autoexec.bat c:\config.sys /b, Give a file comparison between the the config.sys and the autoexec.bat in the current directory in binary format.

But, I think this command is no use anymore, since we could findout the different between two files from windows explorer.
