One of the best package from Celcom! What upset me is when other people receive a special SMS from Celcom regarding their iPhone 4S but I (who have subscribed to Celcom service since the ART 900) days did not receive anything at all. Too bad, loyalty certainly doesn't count this days.
The Amazon Appstore launched recently and it's very cool, but unfortunately it's limited to US customers, leaving the rest of us out in the cold. Which sucks. BUT, there are ways around it! Successfully using the Appstore relies on you having a US presence - a US credit card, a US address and a US phone number (handily, not a US IP), but there are ways to meet this criteria. Here's how i'm happily using the Amazon Appstore on by device from the UK. I've listed two options for each step of the process below. First is what I would call the 'recommended' way of doing things and the second is a slightly more dubious alternative approach (albeit perhaps easier). I'm using the recommended way, but I've been told the other way works. Enjoy - please post below if the process works for you. P PS Follow@aafaotdon Twitter to find out the latest free apps of the day (with rating and previous price). Step 1 - Creating your Amazon account To use the Appstore, first you need to create anAmazon.comaccount. This should be seperate from your main account, with a unique e-mail address. I use Gmail so I have a handy facility to provide a unique e-mail address built in to my e-mail account... by signing up with the addressmyname+appstore@gmail.com(everything after the + is ignored in Gmail routing but can be used for filtering etc.). To sign up with Amazon.com,visit theAmazon.com sign in pageand select 'No, I am a new customer'. Step 2 - Setting up your billing address Next you need to set up a US address (which will be the billing address you associate with the payment card on the account) - you do this on theManage Address Bookpage. This MUST be a valid US address. Recommended: I signed up for a 'USUnlocked' virtual payment card ($10) which provides you with a legitimate US billing address to enter in your account. I signed up for this on a weekend and had the details available to me the same day. Other virtual cards are available, let us know if you find a good one with a real US billing address! Alternative: You don't actually plan to get anything shipped to this address, so you COULD enter any valid US address here, e.g. '1600 Amphitheatre Parkway Mountain View, CA 94043' (which happens to be the home of Google). Step 3 - Setting up your phone number While setting up your address in the step above, you will be prompted for a phone number. This MUST be a US phone number. Recommended: The easiest way to get a valid US address is via a SIP account (I use sipgate.com, which I signed up to using a free US VPN service.Hotspot Shieldis one such service.) There are however many SIP providers who provide US inbound numbers (including Google Voice, which you should also be able to configure with a US VPN connection), so this part is pretty straightforward. Alternative: You don't actually plan on receiving any calls to this number, so you COULD just enter any number starting with +1. Easier than that, you can just enter +1! Step 4 - Setting up your payment card Next you need to set up a US payment card - you do this on theManage Payment Optionspage. This MUST be a valid US card (my UK Amex for example wasn't accepted). Recommended: As mentioned above, I signed up for a 'USUnlocked' virtual payment card ($10) which provides you with a Discover card number to enter in your account. Alternative: You don't actually plan to buy anything with this card, so you COULD use a test card number from one of the card companies, such asthose listed by PayPal. Step 5 - Install the AppStore on your device Now that you've set up your Amazon account, you need to install the Appstore on your device. Point your web browser athttp://go.modaco.com/aadownloadand the APK will be downloaded directly to your device. Once the app is installed, run it and sign in with your newAmazon.comaccount and you're all set! Step 6 (optional) - Purchasing paid apps from the Amazon Appstore If you've set up the account with a valid US payment card then paid apps will just work. If the card you have registered is either empty of funds or a 'test card', payments will fail. BUT, helpfully, retrying payments can be carried out with any card, from any country! So, to buy an app...
Purchase the app in the Appstore on the Amazon website or on your device - the initial payment will fail
Step 4: Package an Android app as a .bar file, install and launch it to set things up. Consider installing a launcher app since it will be required later on to actually launch Market. Get one from here [PlayBook BARS]
Step 5: Using WinSCP for Windows, log into your BlackBerry PlayBook as root. Copy the system folder from Google Apps in Step 3 to the root of your PlayBook’s storage and merge it with the PlayBook’s own system folder.
Step 6: Using a terminal with root access, enter the following commands:
Guys, it’s finally here; H1Siri is the first service making Siri porting to the public free of charge. You can install Siri on your iPhone 4 and iPod touch right now and get it fully ported and connected to Apple’s servers. Just follow our full step by step guide shown below.
This full port of Siri is made for iPhone 4 GSM & CDMA versions and iPod Touch 4G only. Other devices are currently not supported.
If you have previously installed a jailbreak tweak known as “Siri0us” which installed Siri dictation on iOS 5 devices, it’s better to remove it to prevent crashing and conflicting.
The guys known as CD-Team developed a tweak called “H1Siri” which brings Siri’s GUI and Siri connectivity to the team’s own servers. Siri will not be connected to Apple’s servers, instead, it will be connected to private servers.
How To Fully Port Siri On iPhone 4 & iPod Touch 4G
STEP 1: First of, you’ll need an iPhone 4 or iPod touch running iOS 5 / iOS 5.0.1. You can check our iOS firmware download page here.
STEP 2: You’ll also need to jailbreak your iPhone 4 or iPod touch 4G by using our guide posted here for iOS 5.
STEP 3: Once jailbroken, head to Cydia then Manage, Sources, Edit and finally hit Add.

http://www.cydia.be
