Maxis vs DiGi

I am going to compare the wireless 3g broadband speed services by the 2 providers Maxis and DiGi. I have used both the services.

Maxis's Plans are as follows:
1.5 GB - RM 48
3 GB - RM 68
6 GB - RM 98
12 GB - RM 178
Source - http://www.maxis.com.my/personal/broadband/wireless_allplans.asp

DiGi's Plans are as follows:
3 GB - RM 68
10 GB - RM 108
16 GB - RM 158
Source - http://www.digi.com.my/internet/broadband/packages_contractfree.html

From this it is clearly shown that DiGi is more affordable but there is a catch to it on Maxis's service you will get a speed of 3.6 Mbps and on DiGi's you will get 700 Kbps so on Maxis's you will be able to achieve download speed of higher than 500 Kbps but on DiGi you will only get slightly higher than 100 kbps so that is the reason why you get DiGi's service cheaper.


Now let's talk about their contracts, modems, etc.

DiGi
1.You pay RM 50 or RM 100 if you are a foreigner upfront and this amount is not refundable.
2.You will get RM 20 discount for 4 months if you subscribe to either 10 or 16 GB Plans
3.The modem costs RM 80 once you buy it, it is yours.

Maxis


So if you care about very high speed then get Maxis, but if you want more GB's then get DiGi and it's speed is not bad at all.

Jailbreaking An iPod/iPhone and Installing Cracked apps on it.

The tutorial has been based on 3.1.2 version of iPod Touch and is supposed to work with other versions too. Here I show you how to transfer the cracked apps from pc to iPod without the need of SSH or other hard methods.



1. Download blackra1n from http://www.blackra1n.com




2. If you are not on XP then run the application in compatibility mode by right clicking on it and finding that option in properties.




3. Connect the iPod/iPhone, run blackra1n and click on make it rain , your iPod will reboot being jailbroken and having an app called blackra1n on the list (springboard)






4. Run blackra1n from the springboard and download cydia by connecting to wifi.





5. Run cydia, go to manage and tap on sources there add a source/repo http://cydia.hackulo.us






6. Tap on search and search for installous, download and install that app. You will be now be able to download apps openning installous and there downloading the apps you want while connected to wifi.


7. But wifi is not always available and slower than broadband and may get disconnected so you might want to download via PC. Download the apps from websites like http://apptrackr.org/


8. Download a program called DiskAid http://www.digidna.net/products/diskaid and install it.

9. Run Diskaid, connect iPod/iPhone and there navigate to “/Private/var/mobile/Library/Downloads“




10. Click on copy to device and select the ipa file you downloaded and hit ok the file will be sent to iPod, notice that the file might have a .ipa.zip extension so you have to rename it and remove .zip and only leave .ipa in diskaid itself after copying.


11. On you iPod/iPhone open installous go to downloads and there you will see the copied application(s) and tap it to install it.

12. Now enjoy your cracked application.
