I cant upgrade my firmware either because then i wont be able to unlock the newer firmware. So here is a trick if you have a <strong>JailBroken iPhone</strong> and you don&#8217;t want to loose your iPhone Unlock by upgrading to firmware v2.2.1 you can use the following method to install iPhone v2.2.1 Apps on your iPhone v2.2.</p>
<p>1. Open up <strong>Cydia</strong> on your iPhone     <br />2. Search for <strong>FW Changer</strong> in <strong>Cydia</strong>     <br />3. Install FW Changer and open FW Changer     <br />4. In FW Changer set FW version to <strong>2.2.1</strong>     <br />5. In Build write : <strong>5H11</strong>     <br />6. Press Set Custom Firmware &amp; Restart     <br />7. Connect to iTunes it will show up as 2.2.1 and install your Apps </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.geekius.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/flash-iphone.jpg"><img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: 0px" title="flash_iphone" border="0" alt="flash_iphone" align="left" src="http://www.geekius.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/05/flash-iphone-thumb.jpg" width="240" height="200" /></a> </p>
<p>I haven&#8217;t had the<strong> iPhone</strong> for long but i love the browsing experience on an iPhone well not that much its ruined by the lack of Flash and this lack of Flash for the iPhone is holding back some Application Developers too who want to develop Flash based iPhone Applications so you would be cursing Adobe for not making Flash available for the iPhone well you shouldn&#8217;t because its not their fault.</p>
<p>In a recent Adobe Townhall meeting a flash expert received confirmation from <span id="more-105"></span>Adobe Systems Senior Director of Engineering, Paul Betlem that they are pretty much done with Adobe Flash for the iPhone so in reality they are just waiting for a green light from Apple.</p>
<blockquote><p>“ My team is working on Flash on the iPhone, but it’s a closed platform ” <em>Paul Betlem</em> (not direct quote)</p>
</blockquote>
<p>But don&#8217;t get your hopes up just yet because Apple being the sucky control freak company it is still has to decide if they want to make Adobe Flash available for the iPhone or not ! but if out of the blue Apple does say YES ! then it wont be long before <strong>Adobe Flash Player</strong> makes it onto the TOUCH SCREEN !</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; margin-left: 0px; border-left-width: 0px; margin-right: 0px" title="lv_murakami_qr" border="0" alt="lv_murakami_qr" align="right" src="http://www.geekius.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/lv-murakami-qr.jpg" width="324" height="282" /> </p>
<p>I have been reading about QR Codes for past few years but didn&#8217;t really get into the idea behind it till i found this a custom QR Code Designed by <a href="http://www.takashimurakami.com">Takashi Murakami</a> , Produced by <a href="http://setjapan.com/" target="_blank">SetJapan</a> for Louis Vuitton. It was something different not a normal QR Code with black and white boxes but was a cute full colored QR Code Design with a tiny cartoon character in the middle it really opened my eyes and i thought i should give it a go and do more research on QR Codes and so i did.<span id="more-84"></span> </p>
<p>So for those who don&#8217;t know what are QR Codes well these are two dimensional barcodes or matrix code which were created by a Japanese Corporation Denso-Wave in 1994 and since then they are being used in Japan and are very much popular, They can easily be read by almost all of Japanese mobiles using their built-in camera. The “QR” stands for Quick Response.</p>
<p><strong>QR Code Related Japanese Commercial</strong></p>
<div style="padding-bottom: 0px; margin: 0px; padding-left: 0px; padding-right: 0px; display: inline; float: none; padding-top: 0px" id="scid:5737277B-5D6D-4f48-ABFC-DD9C333F4C5D:2b6df427-5bd3-4537-80ec-dc59904304e3" class="wlWriterSmartContent"><embed height="355" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/OxFR6r-Dqk4&amp;hl=en&amp;fs=1&amp;color1=0x006699&amp;color2=0x54abd6" wmode="transparent" /></div>
<p>QR Codes can be used for advertising purposes you can <a href="http://zea.biz/g6Nv392ar" target="_blank"><strong>Generate a QR Code</strong></a> for your website or <a href="http://zxing.appspot.com/generator/" target="_blank"><strong>make a QR Code out of your contact details</strong></a> and then add that QR Code in your advertising or may be print it out on your T-Shirt or may be even <a href="http://gizmodo.com/5030884/qr-code-jacket-patches-take-strangers-on-the-street-to-your-blog-stat" target="_blank">use as a patch on your Jacket</a> ? and best of all its “cool”</p>
<p><strong>Custom Designed QR Codes</strong></p>
<p>So these past few days i have been trying to see if i can customize a generated QR Code design and so far its going pretty good here is the current result i have but its not the final result i am still working on it !</p>
<p><img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="qr 2" border="0" alt="qr 2" src="http://www.geekius.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/qr2.png" width="239" height="240" /> <a href="http://zea.biz/g4Jg293oo"><img style="border-right-width: 0px; display: inline; border-top-width: 0px; border-bottom-width: 0px; border-left-width: 0px" title="IMG_0020[1]" border="0" alt="IMG_0020[1]" src="http://www.geekius.com/wp-content/uploads/2009/04/img-00201.png" width="160" height="240" /></a> </p>
<p><strong>QR Code on iPhone</strong></p>
<p>There are some tools like <a href="http://reader.kaywa.com/" target="_blank">KayWa Reader</a> which are well known and available for Nokia Series 60 and other devices but there are no well known QR Code Reading apps for the iPhone so i went on hunting for the best iPhone App to read QR Codes and i found it , Its called <a href="http://zea.biz/g4Jg293oo" target="_blank"><strong>OptiScan</strong></a> its absolutely the best QR Code scanner for the iPhone its faster than any other readers and works great with a lot of extra built in functions.</p>
<p>Some QR Code Related Cool Tools :</p>

<p><strong>How to take Screenshots on your iPhone Step by Step Guide :</strong></p>
<p><strong>1.</strong> Just Press and Hold the round iPhone Home Button     <br /><strong>2.</strong> While holding the Home Button Just press and release the Sleep/Wake Button on the Top right side of the iPhone the screen will flash so you know the screenshot has been taken.     <br /><strong>3.</strong> Just go to your iPhone Photo Library and the screenshots would already be there, or you can just connect your iPhone to your PC and copy the images from there. </p>
<p>And that&#8217;s pretty much it <img src='http://www.geekius.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
