1. ROM (Read Only Memory)

memory tempat menyimpan firmware dan file-file OS

2. firmware

semacam Operating System yang disimpan di ROM yang menjembatani antara device dan aplikasi-aplikasi serta user.

pada android, istilah firmware dan ROM tertukar-tukar, ada juga yg mendefinisikan ROM sebagai sistem utama OS, dan firmware adalah versi dari sistem utama tersebut. misal ROM = android, firmware=2.2.1. sehingga ada istilah stock rom,custom rom

3. stock ROM

sistem resmi yang dibuat oleh produsen device (kumpulan ROM milik samsung dapat dilihat di samfirmware.com)

4. custom ROM

stock ROM yang dimodifikasi oleh developer-developer, salah satu contoh custom rom adalah rom2 yg dikeluarkan oleh cyanogen mod.

5. sporadic

menginstall firmware/ROM pada device. biasanya dengan menggunakan tools pada komputer seperti odin. tutorial untuk sporadic dpt dilihat di sini saya rasa untuk sebgaian besar device android caranya sama

6. apk (Android Package)

ekstensi file/jenis file installer aplikasi2 android

7. adb (Android Debug Join)

command line tool pada komputer yang bisa berkomunikasi dengan device atau emulator android atau dengan kata lain menjembatani PC dengan android device via command line. terletak pada folder /platform-tools/ di direktori Android SDK. tutrorial menggunakan ADB dapat dilihat di sini.

8. launcher

tampilan pada layar utama dan app drawer

9. widget

aplikasi yang dapat dimunculkan pada layar utama dan dapat berinteraksi langsung di layar utama (bukan shortcut)

10. live wallpaper

background wallpaper yang dapat bergerak gerak dan terkadang gerakannya tergantung input user (misal sentuhan pada live wallpaper nexus)

11. apps2sd

memindahkan file-file aplikasi dari internal storage ke external storage (sd card) secara manual. temennya >> move2sd enabler *root membuat permanen app yg di instal otomatis masuk ke external. gurunnya >> a2sd GUI, melakukan swap, memindai cache pada internal ke ext, app internal bisa pindah ke partisi ext

12. root

tindakan memberikan akses super user pada pengguna dan aplikasi-aplikasi yang membutuhkan akses super user (misal universal androot). setelah device di-root, akan muncul sebuah aplikasi bernama Superuser. Ada yang berpendapat kalau root akan menghilangkan garansi, tapi ada juga yang berpendapat kalau mau klaim garansi cukup di-unroot atau di flash .

13. download mode

kondisi device yang siap menerima firmware baru. pada device saya, dapat dilakukan dengan menekan tombol volume down + tombol tengah D-pad + tombol power saat device dalam keadaan mati. jenis device yang berbeda memiliki cara yang berbeda pula.

14. recovery mode

kondisi device untuk melakukan recovery apabila terjadi suatu error (misal aplikasi2 penting sering force close). akan muncul pilihan:

wipe data/factory reset = sama seperti factory reset

wipe cache partition = menghapus partisi pada SDCard

reboot system now = restart

apply sdcard/update.zip = untuk mengupgrade firmware lewat file pada SDCard

pada device saya, dapat dilakukan dengan menekan tombol volume up + tombol tengah D-pad + tombol power saat device dalam keadaan mati. jenis device yang berbeda memiliki cara yang berbeda pula.

15. safe mode

kondisi device masuk ke OS dengan jumlah aplikasi minimal yang terload (sama seperti pada OS Windows) pada device saya, dapat dilakukan dengan menyalakan device seperti biasa, lalu menekan tombol tengah D-pad lama sampai terasa getar pendek dan getar panjang saat device masuk ke bootanimation. jenis device yang berbeda memiliki cara yang berbeda pula.

16. bootanimation

animasi pada saat booting, dapat diganti jika sudah mendapat akses super user atau lewat command line adb. kalo mau custom sendiri sebenernya gampang. kesalahan dapat mengakibatkan bootloop. tutrorial mengubah bootanimation dpt dilihat di sini. saya sendiri menggunakan bootanimation di atas dari agan af.wirapraja di post ini

17. framework

tampilan-tampilan dasar pada firmware, seperti battery bar, signal bar, notification bar. dapat dicustom dengan mengedit file framework-res.apk dan twframework-res.apk pada folder /system/framework. tentu saja dengan akses superuser kesalahan dapat mengakibatkan bootloop. salah satu tutorial memodifikasi framework dapat dilihat di sini. hati-hati, DWYOR!!!

18. hard reset

mengembalikannya ke kondisi awal ROM (virgin). cara hard reset pada tiap device berbeda-beda. misal pada samsung dengan kode * 2767 * 3855 #. WARNING!! begitu kode dimasukkan, proses hard reset akan langsung berjalan dan tidak dapat dicancel. hard reset akan mengakibatkan:

menghapus contact,sms,pengaturan2 aplikasi,user accounts,aplikasi-aplikasi yang sudah diinstall oleh user, termasuk root

mengembalikan aplikasi-aplikasi awal ROM

mereset file system

19. factory reset

reset ini hanya akan menghapus app data, setting aplikasi, dan user information. Factory reset dapat dilakukan pada Settings>Privacy> Factory Data. Atau pada device samsung dapat memasukkan kode *#*# 7780 #*#*. Factory reset akan mengakibatkan:

menghapus contact,sms,pengaturan2 aplikasi,user accounts,aplikasi-aplikasi yang sudah diinstall oleh user, termasuk root

tidak mengubah file system (framework, bootanimation, dkk)

20. brick

kerusakan pada android akibat kesalahan sporadic, misal kabel lepas saat di tengah-tengah proses flash, atau pc mati mendadak, atau program sporadic not responding. tandanya adalah device matot alias mati total. solusi: di service atau saya sempat mendapati tools untuk unbrick, cuma belum pernah nyobain

21. bootloop

device melakukan boot terus menerus (berulang-ulang) / terjebak di bootanimation, tidak dapat masuk ke OS. akibat kesalahan sporadic atau ada file milik system yang tidak berjalan dengan baik. bootloop dapat diatasi dengan wipe data & wipe cache partition atau kalau masih bootloop dapat diflash ulang

22. jit(just in time)

dalam android jit semacam tweaking agar procie dan I/O device dapat bekerja maksimal

23. android sdk (software development kit)

tool-tool yang berguna untuk mengembangkan aplikasi di atas android

24. CWM / Clockwork mod

recrovery mode yg sudah di oprek sama developer

25. overclock

menaikan kemampuan prosesor di atas normal (hal hal yg terjadi bervariasi, beberapa tidak mengalamin variasi itu atau tidak ada masalah)

The Crooked Hyena

In a thick bamboo jungle, two young pandas had started their new life. Both of them were very cute and chubby. They were born only a few days ago. Their mother had lovingly christened them Jackie and Mickey.

Jackie and Mickey were pretty young and weak. They were not even big enough to take care of themselves. Therefore their mother said, "Kids, you are growing now, you should be able to differentiate between a friend and a foe."

"Mother, who are friends and foes?" asked Jackie and Mickey.

"One who helps us and stands by us in all our odds is our friend. And one who harms us, kills innocent animals and birds, is our enemy. Do you understand anything?" asked their mother.

"Yes mother, we do understand. We will maintain a safe distance from our enemies and not even let them come near us, "Jackie and Mickey assured their mother.

"Good, my children. I was expecting the same understanding from both of you. Now I can leave you alone as you have grown wise, "said their mother and she gave her children a hug.

The next day Mother Panda went to visit her sister. She left Jackie and Mickey alone and went away.

All this while a Hyena was keeping an evil eye on Jackie and Mickey. He was looking for a right opportunity for the past few days. The Hyena's mouth watered when he saw the young and chubby pandas. With their mother away, the Hyena found that much-awaited opportunity.

The Hyena came near the bamboo and said, "Hello friends, what are you doing on the bamboo. Come near me, I will sing you a song and take you both for a jungle-ride."

The pandas were surprised to hear the Hyena. On seeing the dangerous -looking Hyena down-below, Jackie whispered, "This cannot be our friend. He has a big teeth. Our mother had asked us to stay away from enemies. We have to be careful and don't have to go near the Hyena.

On hearing what Jackie had to say, Mickey cried aloud, "You wicked Hyena ,you are our enemy, you want to eat us to satisfy your hunger. We will never get down." 

"Are you out of your mind? Believe me I am not your enemy, I am your friend, "the Hyena tried to convince the young pandas.

Mickey heard the Hyena and understood clearly that his intentions were not correct. He thought, "This devil will not leave us peacefully. We have to think about some other trick to get rid of him for some time."

Suddenly his eyes fell on the bamboo and he said, "Our mother had advised us not to make friends with anybody till flowers bloomed on the bamboo. So you will have to wait till the bamboo flowers."

"All right then, I will wait. All the young children should obey their mothers, "said the crooked Hyena grimacing.

The Hyena realized that his luring the young pandas had back-fired. Totally dejected, he went away. Jackie and Mickey heaved a sigh of relief as the Hyena went away. They once again got busy eating fresh soft leaves of bamboo.

The flowers bloomed on the bamboo within a week's time.

The Hyena's happiness knew no bounds and he said aloud to himself, "Wonderful, flowers on the bamboo have brought me good luck. Now both the young pandas have to be friends with me. I will lure them away and feast on them."

The Hyena once again came to the pandas and said, "Now the flowers have bloomed on the bamboo. Hurry up and get down to shake hands with me."

Mickey was very upset and was at his wit's end as to how to get rid of the beast this time. Jackie however, was least afraid of the Hyena. He was busy sharpening a thick bamboo pointed at both its ends. When the bamboo became pointed, he hurled it towards the Hyena.

He pointed towards the pointed bamboo and said, "We can become friends only when you put the bamboo in your mouth and jump from that cliff."

The flabbergasted Hyena asked, "But why should I jump with bamboo in my mouth? Can't we become friends without this exercise?"

"Absolutely not. Our mother had said that if the Hyena does not jump with the bamboo in his mouth ,we should not be friends with him. If you have to be our friend then you have to do as I say", said Jackie very seriously.

The Hyena became thoughtful. He was thoroughly trapped in Jackey's trap. If he refused to do what was being told, he had to retreat. Finally, under compulsion he decided to jump with the bamboo in his mouth.

Despite his reluctance, the Hyena inserted the pointed end of the bamboo in his mouth and climbed the cliff and jumped.

The moment he landed on the ground, the Hyena shouted loudly in pain, "Oh my God! I am dead. The bamboo has pierced through my neck."

The panda brothers jumped with joy. Meanwhile the Mother Panda had also returned after visiting her sister. She saw the Hyena writhing in pain. Jackey and Mickey told her everything. When she came to know everything, she applauded her sons and said, "Well done, you have proved that both of you are brave and intelligent and can defend yourself from prying enemies."

The Hyena, with the bamboo stuck in his mouth, was in a really bad shape. He ran away as fast as he could and was never seen in the jungle again.

the legend of lake toba

Once upon a time there was a prosperous village in a far away island called Sumatra. In northern part of the island, lived a farmer whose name was Toba. He lived alone in a hut by a small forest. He worked on his farmland to grow rice and vegetables that he sells to local market. Once day he wanted to catch some fish so he went to a river and fished there. He was very surprised when he got a big fish. The fish was as big as human being. Soon he went home and put the fish in his kitchen. He planned to cook the fish for his dinner that night. When he got to his house that afternoon he took a bath. Then as he walked into his bedroom after taking a bath Toba was very shocked. Do you want to know what happened?

There stood in his living room a very beautiful girl. The girl greeted him nicely. For a moment Toba was speechless. When he could control his emotion he asked her.

‘Who are you? What’s your name? Why suddenly you are here in my house?’

‘Pardon me if I surprised you Mr. Toba, but you took me here. I was the fish that you caught in the river. Now that I become a human being again, I would like to thank you and I will be your servant to express my thankfulness’

‘Were you the fish?’

‘Yes, I was the fish. Look at your kitchen’.

Toba immediately rushed to his kitchen and the fish was nowhere to be seen. He saw some gold coins instead.

‘Whose coins are these? Why there are some coins here?’

‘Those coins are mine. As I changed into human being my scales changed into gold coins’

‘Ok you can live here and work for me. Your room is over there’

‘Thank you very much Mr. Toba’

Since that day the beautiful girl lived in Toba’s house. Since she was very beautiful Toba fell in love with her and not long after that they got married. The girl married to Toba on one condition that he would never tell anybody about her past. Toba agreed to the condition. Several months later Toba’s wife delivered to a baby boy. Their son was healthy. Soon he grew up into a handsome boy. Toba named him Samosir. Unfortunately Samosir was a lazy boy. He did not want to work at all. When his father worked hard in his rice field and farm, Samosir just slept. When he was awake he talked a lot and he ate a lot. Toba was very disappointed with his son’s nature. He hoped that one day Samosir would change into a diligent boy. Day in and day out but Samosir never changed.

Toba used to go to his farm and rice field early in the morning. Then at midday his wife would bring him food. They used to eat lunch at their farm. As he was a teenager Toba and his wife tried to change his behavior. They ordered Samosir to bring food for his father for lunch while her mother stayed at home to do household chores. But Samosir never did his duty well. He always woke up very late. He woke up after midday. Then one day his mother forced him to bring the food.

‘Sam, wake up. Go to the farm and bring the food for your father. He must be very tired and hungry now’.

But Mom, I am tired and hungry too’

‘What makes you tired? You just wake up. Go now. You father needs the food’

Toba reluctantly went to the farm. But he did not go to the farm immediately. He stopped somewhere in the street and ate the food. It was already late afternoon when he got to the farm. His father was disappointed. Then he was angry as he realized that his son had eaten his food. He said sarcastically.

‘O, you are stupid lazy boy. You are son of a fish!’

Samosir was hurt. He went home right away and as he got home he told his mother about his father’s words. Samosir’s mother was shocked. She was also deeply hurt.

‘O Toba. You break your promise so I cannot live with you here anymore. Now you have to accept to consequence of what you did. Samosir, now go to the hill, find the tallest tree and climb it’

‘Why mom? What will happen?’

‘Just do it, never ask any question. Good bye’

As soon as she finished saying that suddenly the weather changed. Sunny day suddenly turned into cloudy day. Not long after that the rain poured heavily. The rain last for several days. Consequently the area was flooded. The whole area became a big lake. Then it was called Lake Toba and in the middle of the lake there is an island called Samosir Island. Meanwhile Toba’s wife disappeared.

Lake Toba is located in the province of North Sumatra, Indonesia. Today it becomes a tourist destination.

SUICIDE SILENCE

Suicide Silence is an American extreme metal band from Riverside, California. The group consists of vocalist Mitch Lucker, guitarists Chris Garza and Mark Heylmun, drummer Alex Lopez and bassist Dan Kenny.

The band perform this style as well as gain influences from several other extreme musical genres such as black metal, grindcore, and mathcore. The mathcore elements can be seen in the varied speed changes and complex time signatures in the band's music. The vocals of Mitch Lucker are frequently fluctuating between death growls and high-pitched screamed vocals used in black metal. The drumming is very fast-paced, grindcore influenced, and employs a liberal use of double bass drumming and blast beats.

The band members themselves have stated that they are influenced from groups such as Meshuggah, Sepultura, Cannibal Corpse, Suffocation, Necrophagist, Nile, Slipknot, Deftones and Korn.

The Cleansing is the debut album by American extreme metal band Suicide Silence. The album was released on September 18, 2007 through Century Media Records. Upon its release it debuted at #94 on the Billboard Top 200, selling 7,250 copies within the first week, and became one of the best-selling debut albums in Century Media history.

No Time to Bleed is the second studio album by American extreme metal band Suicide Silence. It was released on June 30, 2009 through Century Media Records. The album was released in five different editions; the standard version, the Exclusive Hot Topic Edition, the iTunes edition, the vinyl edition, and the Maximum Bloodshed Edition. Upon its release it debuted at number 32 on the Billboard 200, selling 14,000 copies in the United States alone. It is Suicide Silence's most critically acclaimed album and was re-released as No Time to Bleed: Body Bag Edition on July 1, 2010, little over a year after the record's original pressing.

The Black Crown is the third full-length album by extreme metal band Suicide Silence, which was released July 12, 2011 through Century Media Records. With anticipation for their third full-length after the release of No Time to Bleed, Suicide Silence prepared recording for The Black Crown on a course of several months starting from the beginning of 2010 with writing ideas and plans before their arrival to the studio for recording in 2011.

The album was produced by Steve Evetts and is also the last release by the band required to be issued through Century Media per the three-album deal contract the band accepted to in 2007.

experience using smartphone with Android

The first experience using smartphone with Android Operating System is confusing. Moreover, the displacement of the Samsung B3310 which provides a QWERTY keypad. Difficulty of First Instance is to familiarize yourself with the touch screen and menu system. The second difficulty is the limited screen when the keyboard (keyboard) appears in the touch screen so it is quite difficult in view of the conversation, especially the chat application.

But the difficulty was paid because many games are powered by android. of Need Fro Speed, Big Sport Fishing, Glider, Football, and many others. Because galaxyY from Samsung is still a low end phone, so there is quite a quite a lot of games that can not be executed. Yes, limited CPU, memory, and screen resolution. And android also has many applications that can help us find the latest news as detik.com, kompas.com, berita indonesia, mytrans, and many others.

For now I am still in the stage of trial and error, loading plug applications, phone settings and configuration. Well, as a newbie I am looking for material from the forum devoted kaskus Samsung galaxyY GT-S5360  and galaxyY facebook group. and until now I still join in the forum because there are many interesting experiences that I get. I hope you can give it a try :)
