I dont really care that much about the price.. have you found any 4G/LTE that might work with osx ?

Awesome.. just ordered one.. Another question.. all these are HSPA+ .. have you seen any real 4g/LTE cards ?

Hi, Overtime your installation will be filled with stuff that you test.. some of it you might not use anymore or you just want to trim it. Cleaning out in automatic starting things can also help you speed up your system boot time and generel run time. 1) The autostart is usually not in the User-Autostart-Items, but you should check them anyway: Open the System-Preferences > Users > Select your user > Start-Objects Check if there is something started you want to deactivate and do so if. 2) Normally the start of apache is handled by the launchd-service: You can either change this manually, or with the help of a old little tool named "Lingon". To do it manually, you need to find the launchd-folders: ~/Library/LaunchAgents ~/Library/LaunchDaemons /Library/LaunchAgents /Library/LaunchDaemons /System/Library/LaunchAgents /System/Library/LaunchDaemons There you'll find .plist-files, that define when and what to start. To remove a object from auto-start use launchctl on the terminal to remove it from the actual launchd and then simply delete the file. user$ launchctl unload *filename.plist* Make sure you do not delete the wrong files! This may lead to a fatal situation on your machine. Btw: The .plist-Files can be read with BBEdit, TextWrangler or the PropertyList Editor from the Apple Developer-Tools.

Hi, I have cleaned up in this topic - moved all the good posts into the main post - thank you everyone for your contributions. One question - somebody mentioned a bios update v. 1.40 (we currently use 1.22) with whitelist and SLIC. Also mentioned on this link: http://forums.mydigitallife.info/threads/20223-Remove-whitelist-check-add-ID-s-to-break-hardware-restrictions-mod-requests/page293 However the file is no longer for download.. anyone got a copy ?

Hi, ExpressCards is a neat way of extending your laptop with new functionality - in this case we are going to have a look at USB 3.0 - my test machine is a Lenovo x201s running Mavericks 10.9.3 The Sunix USB 3.0 ExpressCard The card is automatically detected - however you will need to install a kext to get it to work. GenericUSBXHCI.kext - Download: GenericUSBXHCI.kext.zip So lets look at performance using a external USB 3.0 disk - 7200rpm. USB 2.0 Performance: USB 3.0 Performance:

Can you post the patched section of your CellPhoneHelper.kext for f3507g here so i can update.

i dident... i asked if you had managed

Have you managed to get a signal strength bar with this card? i got mine today.. seems to work pretty good OOB

@Herve, have you tested using those DP kexts on real mavericks ?

Honestly i dont know.. been wondering the same myself.. if you find out do let me know

This is a really old guide.. made for SL, i doubt it still works.. but hey.. give it a try

Hi James, You are more than welcome - actually.. the biggest donation you can ever give.. is to help others like you have gotten help here.. share the knowledge .. and again.. welcome to OSXL. //Leon

Hi, So, this is a bit outside of the OSX religion of things - but got my hands on a Samsung chromebook series 3, cute little machine, reminds me alot about a cheap Macbook air .. but with a weird and messed up OS on it. ChromeOS is great and all.. but if you want to tinker a bit more then its time to look for different alternatives - and there certainly is a few out there. I decided to take Ubuntu LTS (currently 12.04) out for a spin.. wich.. lets just say.. wasent as easy as i hoped. Anyway, here is my notes on the subject, i hope this helps to get somebody else going. Requirements: * A Samsung chromebook series 3 * ChomeOS booted in dev mode Prepare for dev. mode: BACKUP ANY IMPORTANT DATA Turn of the machine Hold ESC+RELOAD buttons and press once on the power button (This will bring up a warning about going to boot mode, press CTRL+D to go into dev. mode.. notice all data will be removed) Once inside chromeos, open a terminal by pressing: CTRL+ALT+F2 Login as chronos Install the dev. firmware by running: sudo chromeos-firmwareupdate mode=todev We are now in 100% correct dev. mode and the real fun can start. Download and installations We will be using chrubuntu for installation, you can find more info about it here: http://chromeos-cr48.blogspot.se/2013/05/chrubuntu-one-script-to-rule-them-all_31.html For my setup i wanted the Unity and LTS, so i use the following command to download and install Ubuntu. >> curl -L -O http://goo.gl/s9ryd; sudo bash s9ryd ubuntu-desktop lts .. ubuntu will now be downloaded and installed, the machine will automatic reboot after installation. The default username is "user" with password "user" Fixes: ---------------------------------------------- Flash player Get Chromium from the Software Center then run this mkdir /tmp/chrome sudo mount /dev/mmcblk0p3 /tmp/chrome -o ro sudo cp /tmp/chrome/opt/google/chrome/pepper/lib­pepflashplayer.so /usr/lib/ echo "CHROMIUM_FLAGS=\"--enable-logging --enable-smooth-scrolling --log-level=1 --scroll-pixels=30 --ppapi-flash-path=/usr/lib/libpepflashp­layer.so --ppapi-flash-version=\"$(egrep "^VERSION=" /tmp/chrome/opt/google/chrome/pepper/pep­per-flash.info|sed -e 's/^VERSION=//' -e 's/\"//g')\"\"" | sudo tee -a /etc/chromium-browser/default sudo umount /tmp/chrome rm -rf /tmp/chrome Touchpad Fix mkdir ~/backup sudo mv /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/* ~/backup/ cd /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/ sudo wget http://craigerrington.com/chrome/x_alarm_chrubuntu.zip sudo unzip x_alarm_chrubuntu.zip sudo rm x_alarm_chrubuntu.zip Keyboard layout sudo gedit /usr/share/X11/xorg.conf.d/10-keyboard.c­onf edit the "gb" to whatever keyboard layout you use.

You should consider joining our dev team.. we are cooking up next gen "fun" .. and could use good skills as your own.

Hey Axel, Awesome work - would you mind if we added it to EDP ? //Leon

anyway we want to

Get me one and i'll hack it up

great .. now thats clarified by mr. Frenchy we can get back to the whole x-mas thing again..

Hey mate, I co-founded this place and not even i know.. in terms.. dosent matter for squad Merry x-mas and all that

The question you are asking why we dont show more info about cpus is that not that many laptops have replacable CPUs, secondly.. it would be a bit of a nightmare for our web team to cover "everything scenario" .. When you read these guides and try products like EDP, you have to see them as a "best case scenario" .. what works for hundreds of others.. might or might not work for you.. but they are still a good start. Should you have any problems - just setup a thread in the right place and we'll try and help you out
