Log in to the router and go to:

Services-> Services

In there make sure you have the following setting:

Let me explain the text:

dhcp-option=ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff,option:dns-server,96.126.123.244

This sets the DHCP option of a device with ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff mac addresss and then it sets the option of dns-server to be 96.126.123.244 (which is adguard dns server, you can put whatever you wish)

The mac address is listed in the admin area of the router but if you can’t find it usually the label … Read the rest

I find it shocking that it’s not listed anywhere very clear…  Who wants to run a .exe file on a windows machine for no good reason?

the command are:

adb shell pm grant com.jamworks.bxactions android.permission.WRITE_SECURE_SETTINGS
adb shell pm grant com.jamworks.bxactions android.permission.READ_LOGS

if you don'e have the adb command on your computer download the android platform tools from the official site at: 
https://developer.android.com/studio/releases/platform-tools

extract go to command prompt, navigate to that directory and run the commands.

Cheers.

This happens when there are 2 virtual machines that have a discreprincy. (Say you change one of the drives)

In this case you have to go to the Hyper-V manager connect to the replica server and delete the copy of that machine.

Now go to the master Hyper-V and enable replication again.   Should work now.

I’ve been getting this error on my Samsung galaxy note 9 since it was brand new.

NOTHING I did fix the issue.   Don’t waste your time.

I think the phone needs either a new sim card or flash a new firmware.   (I’m thinking it’s the firmware cause Samsung was urging me to get the phone repaired at a facility)

Now just to be clear this error happens when the phone is brand new.   If you get this issue when the … Read the rest

After version 2.16 Mobile Passport app introduces Plus subscription, charges for features that were previously free.   If you want the old version you will need to uninstall the latest version and sideload the old version you can find it here  (Just make sure to disable the auto-update on the app in the app store)

I wouldn’t mind paying for it, but a subscription fee is just not worth it.

cscript “C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office16\OSPP.vbs” /act

I tried to install Google Backup & Sync and kept getting this error.

I spent hours trying to figure out a solution,   at the end I decided to check what happens if I use this:

support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/17588/fix-problems-that-block-programs-from-being-installed-or-removed

And use it to UNINSTALL Google Update Service.  After that everything installed fine.
