How To Reset Samsung Galaxy Mini 2 S6500

- I used pattern lock, then someone tried to break it, then it locked and I need to sign in using Google account.
- The worse thing is, I forgot the Google account that I use with it.
- Done a few search using Google, related keyword 'how to unlock pattern lock android', 'galaxy mini pattern lock', 'how to reset galaxy mini 2', 'how to reset samsung s6500'.
- Found this site, said to reset Galaxy Mini 2 by power off the phone, press VOLUME DOWN + HOME + POWER, not working.
- Found this info from XDA, related to recovery menu. I try VOLUME UP + VOLUME DOWN + HOME + POWER. Working, boot into recovery mode.
- Select wipe data/factory reset. Working.
- Note: From the XDA site, it said to press VOLUME UP + HOME + POWER to enter recovery mode, I think that is the right combination key.

Protect Your PC From Autorun Virus (External USB Drive)

- Free antivirus like Avira also protects you from autorun viruses.
- But sometimes, slower PC is not recommended to use antivirus as it will make the PC even slower.
- So I use this lightweight and fast tool to protect my PC from autorun viruses, Autorun Eater.
- It simply detect USB pendrive/external drive, then search for autorun file and delete it.
- It will protect you from the autorun, if you explore the drive manually then you are at your own risk. But as precautions, please always scan your USB pendrive/external drive using antivirus or spyware remover program first before using it.
- You can download Autorun Eater here, and it's free (but donation is always welcome).

How To Sync Your Android Clock/Time

- I received a comment asking how to sync android tablet/phone clock@time.
- I found this ClockSync @ Play Store. You can download the app using your android.
- There's a problem with Sirim time server, so you can use 'my.pool.ntp.org'.
 - Your android need to have ROOT access for this app to work (auto mode), but there's also assisted manual mode (rootless).
