I've been blessed with a wonderful auntie who really loves to give stuff. :)) Here's some additional stuff she gave me. As an additional to the make-up collection post I shared with y'all. You might want to track that yourself. LOL. Pretty lazy to link the post here. Might do so at the end of the post though. Might not.

Yup! I received it inside a baby towel. And noticed the spelling? I don't mind as of the moment. LOL. If you're gonna give something to me, most likely, I won't mind the wrong spelling. But if you're gonna get something from me and you misspelled my name, BLOOD WILL SHED.

But being the awesome auntie that she is, she spelled my name right this time. First gift is an earphone since I asked her if she happen to have a spare. She said no and that she'll just buy me a new one.

First things first, my iPhone is BACK! Back to life. Back to everything. Back to my abusive hands. LOL. If you're from the Philippines or China, you may have noticed that the news is all about the rubbish island war or reef whatever that these two countries are fighting for. *sigh*

There are ships guarding the site and all that. And then the government complains about lack of money for this and that and all that and yet they spend money for fuels and all kind of crap and some for themselves of course.

I'm actually pissed that this stuff is happening. And I am taking no side. Although I admit that the Philippines might need it more than China because they're obviously richer and stuff like that.

 DISTANCE IS NOT THE BASIS OF EVERYTHING. Can I just say that the United States of America is like thousands miles away but THEY OWN THE PHILIPPINES. Just kidding. Getting back to the  point though, get it?

When I saw this, it made me realize that there might be a reason why I can't hate China as of the moment. Why? Because the guy who made the 4.11.08 solution is from CHINA! Yay to that!

I actually made this blog post to kind of help people who are having troubles with their iPhone PUSH NOTIFICATIONS. When I upgraded my iPhone 4's baseband to 4.11.08 accidentally via iTunes, my phone became useless and all that (even as an iPod) so I had to have it Jailbroken to a technician and then I stopped getting push notifications. CRAZY MAD! I searched the World Wide Web and nothing actually helped. As a man of science, of course I tried most of it that actually made sense to me. But nothing solved my problem. And so I believed what I read that says "you have to have an active phone to get a notification".

Recently, the unlock solution came out and I thought that I'll start to get  push notifications but guess what? YUP! Nothing happened. Text messages and phone calls aside of course. Because that stuff work just fine. And then I thought of resetting my network and resetting the phone and when I did, nothing changed.

Now, yesterday night, I thought of something. I deleted an app and re-installed it. And then I started getting push notification from that app. And then I deleted another and re-installed it. And I did that to all the app I think I needed a push notification for (Facebook, Twitter, WhatsApp, Fring, Voxer, Line, Viber. etc.) and all the magic happened. AWESOME! If you tried to do that before but it didn't work, download it directly to your phone via wi-fi and do not sync it to iTunes. Because I'm thinking that if you sync it to iTunes and all that, it might sync the malfunctioning push notification as well. Makes sense? TRY IT! :)

Boo! Updated my iPhone 4 to iOs5 awhile ago without knowing that it'll be incompatible on my Gevey sim. How stupid? First of all, no one told me and I usually just update whatever there is at iTunes and it usually works fine with me. And now the error that I am getting is that the sim card that is in is not recognizable and all that shit. Apparently, Apple did a revision and that it's no longer possible for that Gevey technology to mess up with their system. Which is quite smart, if you ask me. But not friendly.

Dear Apple,

How are you? I hope you're fine and just in case you are wondering, NO I AM NOT, thanks. If it's not too much to ask, please allow third party systems to interfere once in a while. Stop being a pain in the ass. Thanks! XOXO
