Android App for Remote SMS

I finally found a good enough app for remote SMS via Wi-Fi or USB in order of preference:

1. EasySMS - Pros: Reliable; Cons: Must manually refresh to see updated status of SMS
2. Desktop SMS - Pros: real-time SMS receive/send; Cons: Intermittent closing of app
3. RemoteSMS - Pros: Port configurable; Cons: Must manually refresh to see updated status of SMS

Eclipse on MacOS X

Wonder which of the available downloads from eclipse.org is right for you?

  1. Mac Carbon 32bit
  2. Mac Cocoa 32bit
  3. Mac Cocoa 64bit
For my Snow Leopard, i chose #3 since Java that comes with the MacOS is 64bit but you need to tweak settings since it consumes memory that it's 32bit counterpart.

MagicJack suddenly cannot connect to Internet error

My neighbor asked for my help, after some troubleshooting here's how I fixed problem:

  1. Corrected the system clock
  2. Downloaded upgrade from http://upgrades.magicjack.com/upgrade/upgrade.exe
  3. Executed the upgrade.exe
  4. Success!
This maybe on a case to case basis. Others might need to enabled ports 5060 and 5070.
