A good friend of mine took this with a thermal camera. This is XPERIA Arc S after been online for 5 minutes! The picture says it all.
Coming from the world of Microsoft Windows to the Linux realm might not be as easy as I originally thought it would be. Not because linux is hard, but because Windows is so lousy! My name is Islam Emam, and I've been with DOS and Windows since I was 9. I'm over 30 now, and after all these years, I'm starting to crawl again; only this time it's in Linux.!

Unlocked a Samsung Galxy Ace through ADB
Just finished un-locking a Samsung Galaxy Ace - S5830, that was locked on the 3 network - UK. We don't get to see lots of locked phones in Egypt, and the last time I unlocked a phone, it was through a paid service.
I didn't do much, rooted the phone and then followed the procedure in this xda thread to unlock it via ADB. It worked like a charm. Now my English friend can enjoy using his phone freely with an Egyptian SIM card.
Note: The method for temporary rooting the phone, mentioned in the thread above, didn't work with me, so I rooted the phone permanently.
