More sections of this website (Mobile-SG.com) are now down due to the transition in webhosting server. I won't be working on bringing them back. Instead, I will focus my efforts on migrating the content over to the new website, which has been in use for almost 2 months now.


Blog commenting in this site has been disabled for good. This is due to the fact that I will be using the new website for my blogging needs. Please use the new website for a continuation of my blog, or use the forums in the new site for communication.


I won't be posting any more new blog entries and photos over at this site as I have already started using my new site for blogging & posting of photos. I will still be posting some annoucements over here though since the new website is still not 100% ready. Only the blog section & photo gallery is ready. The downloads section is definitely not ready. The forums are up, but I'm still wondering what threads to migrate over or just let this new forum start from scratch. Once again, my new website is over here. Image


Activity in this website will be declining as I will be busy setting up a new website and migrating the contents from this site over. So far, I've completed migration of the photo gallery. Next up will be the software and themes, followed by some articles/guides, etc. This is probably an essential step as bandwidth over here is exploding and is more than what my current webhosting account has allocated. Besides, some webpages here are broken. So, the best solution would probably be a brand new start!

If you want to have a sneak peak, proceed to this link. Do note that I'm still tweaking some stuff here & there. So, some things may change drastically or don't work well until the full site is ready. If you want to have an early feel of the new site, go on & register an account there. Account login will be required for blog/news comment, forum posting, photo gallery comments, etc. There is even a mobile version of the new site here.


I've read several reports of ClearTemp not behaving well and causing catastrophes (corrupted/missing registries or whole folders) on some devices. If you are one of the users who had such misfortune, I sincerely apologise for what has happened.

I also wish to take this opportunity to advise all users not to select all items, especially the "high-risk" items, if you do not fully understand what they do and what the risks are. In most cases where the catastrophes happen, I suspect something went wrong with the checking/cleaning of the "high-risk items".

Instead, I seriously advise users to tick minimal number of items and to tick only the items you understand and needs cleaning on a more frequent basis. In version 1.2, I have added "Select recommended items" to the menu to select the minimal set of items that are commonly used.

Sometimes, it can really get very discouraging to be flamed and yet not know why/how it has happened. I've tested the application on several of my own devices as well as the emulators before and never had problems. Well, I'm just as clueless and I don't really have a solution to such a problem.

So, anybody (including users who do not experience such problems) vote for the "high-risk" items to be removed from the application? Or should I add more warning prompts? Or do you have any other suggestions to "reduce" the risk or make it clearer to the user?


Once again, something broke. Some webpages on this website, e.g. several Windows Mobile theme pages and device database pages are affected. I've looked through the codes briefly and did not manage to find anything wrong. So, I have to say that these webpages will be down under further notice. I will have to find time to rebuild those webpages then. That sounds like a tough task. Or maybe I should look for a CMS and rebuild everything. Image


I'll be off to Penang to visit my relatives for Chinese New Year. Will be off on Friday evening (23rd Jan) and be back somewhere on Tuesday (27th Jan). During that period, I will be out of contact since there is limited internet connectivity and auto-roaming costs are high. I will also put up the note in my contact form as the day draws nearer. So, I won't be able to reply to e-mails during that period and my mailboxes will probably be flooded with mails & spams when I get back. And my responses to blog posts will also be delayed as well.

On a side note, I will also be very busy for the rest of this month and the next (and maybe even for the next few months). This means that software releases here will be delayed, if any. And my responses to blog posts & e-mails may be a little slow, so I would appreciate your patience & support. Image


Looks like some of the downloads on this site have been immensely popular, especially Bongsu3's TouchFLO 3D themes and some of my Pocket PC software.

My webhosting account only gives me 20GB of bandwidth per month and I am very surprised to see that my bandwidth has exceeded 16GB as of today (for the month of January). Looks like I gotta pay for the extra bandwidth or even consider upgrading my webhosting plan.

Or maybe I should also consider setting up another website with a cheap webhosting plan and one that is able to serve my current needs beter. Unfortunately, I don't think I have the time for all the hassles.

And the other surprising/pleasant observation from my website statistics is that the download hits for ClearTemp has hit an all-time high this month. As of now, there have been more than 18,000 hits on ClearTemp (for the month of January). I'm amused, surprised, bewildered but excited.

It's always a good thing to see traffic explosion, although that also means extra costs. So, if you are kind enough, please make a donation to the cause and also if you like the content here (search for "Make A Donation" button link on the right). Image


The database issue has been fixed thanks to the speedy & fantastic support provided by Webstrike Solutions. I've been hosting my website with them since 2004 and their service standard is what keeps me with them. Image


It seems that several sections of this website (specifically several JSP webpages) have gone down for the past couple of days. In particular, it's those JSP webpages that use databases, e.g. themes section and device specs section. I will be investigating on how the problem came about and hopefully find a fix. Otherwise, I will just have to make some changes to how the databases are used. Apologies for any inconveniences caused by the "missing" webpages.
