How To Load a Custom ROM on an Android Device
How To Load a Custom ROM on an Android Device
Ready to flash some custom ROMs on your Android device? Here�s a little generic walkthrough to give you a better understand of the concept, it�s prerequisites, and get you from beginning to end without any headaches.
I Before You Begin.
1. Want more info on what a ROM is? Head to our glossary of terms and get familiar with all this jargon.2. You might have been linked to this procedure from one of our other How To�s, namely rooting procedures. Either way, this procedure is meant to give you a solid overview so you may have already done some of these steps (I�ll mention which ones as we go). If you came from elsewhere and haven�t done the mentioned steps, don�t panic. Just follow the adjacent links as you go. As always, if you have any issues, please post here in the comments or in the forums for help.
II. Root Your Device
First and foremost, you need root access. Root access is essentially getting the phone to give us permissions to change what we want.1. If you don�t have root access or never rooted your phone, then head to our how to�s here and find your android device to look for a procedure that�ll work for you. Once, done, head back here to continue.
III. Flash a Custom Recovery Image (skip if when you rooted you flashed a custom recovery already)
Next thing needed after rooting is a custom recovery image. All Android devices have a recovery partition. This is essentially a section of the device�s memory devoted to a very basic recovery system that is separate from the normal operating system. This is normally used by manufacturers for recovering a broken device (as even if the operating system crashes, the recovery image has a chance of still being access and used to reflash the operating system, etc.).Because of that function of flashing the operating system, once we have root access, we can use it to flash our own versions of the operating system. Before it�ll do that though, we need to replace the original recovery image with a custom one that has a lot more functionality.
1. After you have root access, head to the market on your device and look for ROM Manager. Download and install the free version.
2. Open ROM Manager and select Flash ClockworkMod Recovery and choose your device.
3. Select Grant when the Superuser prompt comes up.
4. Wait for it to say successfully flashed. You now have a custom recovery image.
IV. Load a Custom ROM
Now that we have root access and a custom recovery image, we need to find a ROM we want to flash. Thanks to the amazing third party developers (most of which do this in their spare time), there are a bunch of ROMs to choose from. All of them have their own pros and cons and tweaks and themes, so you should try a few to decide which you�d prefer.1. Head to our ROM Repository and find your Android device to be presented with all of the ROMs we�ve found for your device. Then follow the download links to see their features and download the .zip file for the ROM to your computer.
2. After you download the .zip to your computer, plug in your device via USB cable.
3. Copy the .zip file to the SD Card (do NOT extract it, just copy the whole zip file).
4. Unplug your device.
5. Now, open ROM Manager again.
6. Select Reboot into Recovery and wait for the device to reboot.
7. Once in recovery mode, use the volume buttons to navigate and power button to select Backup and Recovery.
8. Then select Backup and hit yes to confirm. Wait for it to finish backing up your current system (this will save you if something goes wrong).
9. Select Wipe Data / Factory Reset.
10. Select Flash zip from sdcard.
11. Select Choose zip from sdcard.
12. Find the ROM we copied to the sdcard in .zip format and select it. Then select yes to confirm. Wait for it to finish flashing.
13. Select Reboot System Now. Once it reboots (which will take a while the first time), you�ll be running the new ROM.
To flash a different ROM, just redo all the steps in Section IV here. Enjoy and don�t forget to comment on the ROMs you try in the repository so others can see what they�re all about.
As always, if this procedure helped you please thank/donate to the developers. You can thank Koush, the creator of the ROM Manager app, and/or the developers of the ROMs you like (their donate links found where you downloaded the ROM from).

How to Optimize Website to Load Faster
How to Optimize Website to Load Faster
In the matter of visiting a website or blogsite nobody likes a tortoise, everybody likes rabbit. A slow loading website bothers everyone and you will lose your visitor for forever, even if there you putted a lots of good content. Again a fast loading website is a great factor for having more visitors and pageviews, friendlier to Seo (Google likes and recommends Speed). Overall making a good impression about your content to visitor you have to make your website load faster.Optimizing and taking care of some fact is enough to make a website load faster. Things focused on here are using good host, removing unnecessary code, scripts even widget, gadgets, optimizing for image, fast caching. Also if you using wordpress how to optimize wordpress website to load faster explained here. Keep on reading the minimax explanation-
How to Optimize Website to Load Faster
�
Optimizing Codes
�
Compress CSS
Optimizing CSS codes of your website�s is important. Unnecessary CSS code makes site sloth. So remove unnecessary CSS codes from your stylesheets (like unused and unnecessary white spaces, character spaces, newlines, tabs, callout boxes, buttons). Compressing CSS also will make your website Google bots crawling friendly. You may use CSS compressing tools like this
Compress JavaScript
Compacting JavaScript code can save many bytes of data and speed up downloading your webpage to web browser, parsing, and execution time. Removing unnecessary JavaScript codes from your website make your website load faster and render faster. For compress your JavaScript code you can use this tool
Compress HTML
Minify HTML code can save many bytes of data and speed up webpage loading. Safely reduce the size of your HTML code can make your website load faster plus it will reduce mobile transfer cost and optimize storage on embed systems. Way too using HTML also sloth the page loading and non SEO friendly. To compress your HTML�s from website you can use this tool
Optimizing stylesheet
The standard rule and regulation of W3 HTML specification is your websites stylesheets should be put in <head> section what allows a webpage to render fast and progressively. Plus not to use render blocking JavaScript and CSS above the fold content these render blocking codes make webpage loading slower. If your website have render blocking JavaScript and CSS try to use alter or asynchronously version of those codes
Scripts in bottom
Put your not very important javascripts in the bottom of body before the closing </head>. So when you site got loaded after non important functions will get load.
For Wordpress Compressing codes to website load faster
You can use for wordpress best compressing and minifying code plugin Wp minify it will minify all extended unused codes for you.
Basic optimizations
�
Using good host and DNS system
Reduce server response time and HTTP request, Dns lookup overall Dns server response time is a fact to load website faster. You will need very good server response, Mysql database and other database and Dns server response quickly. Using good proper host is the solution plus Avoiding unwanted URL redirection, URL masking, URL forwarding too
Optimize websites HTTP request
When a visitor visit your website, visitors web browser fetch data (like CSS files, JavaScript libraries, images) when web browser fetch data it makes HTTP request to your web server. Limit the number of file to be displayed in browser thats will reduce HTTP request time. Check your HTTP requests at Pingdom
Dealing with fetching contents
Dealing with those contents what your webpage will fetch from other server or source. Like Advertising Banner, sponsor images, YouTube or other video site�s video playing on your website these stuffs slow down your page loading speed. Consider not to using much much ads on website
Optimize images
If your website is not about photography or infograph consider to using image size of 600px, 300px, 125px and JPG or JEPG format under less than 300 kb. Also using Lossless compressed images in post or webpage can save many bytes and seconds. To compress images you can use this tool or�Dynamic drive
Data URL is also helpful to optimizing images, this process turns images into URL/Code, and loads extremely faster, offline usable and dont create HTTP request on server, Use this tool for creating Data URL version of your images Dopiaza
Leverage browser Caching
Cache for website means create static HTML file from dynamic website. When a webpage opens the page renders, gets data from databases, usages ram-cpu then it visible on web browser, So every time you open then page it do waste time same. Again when a webpage cached it don�t take much longer to load time saves. Set an expiry date or maximum age in the HTTp headers for static instructs for web browser to load previously downloaded files from local disk rather than the network (like in webpage code�s Last-Modified or Etag or cache-control or max-age tag using at style sheet-
<IfModule mod_expires.c>
ExpiresActive On
ExpiresByType text/html Mtime
ExpiresByType text/css Mtime
ExpiresByType application/javascript Mtime
ExpiresByType image/gif Mtime
ExpiresByType image/icon Mtime
ExpiresByType image/jpeg Mtime
</IfModule>
location ~* .(jpg|png|gif|jpeg|css|js)$ {
expires 1h;
}
Using CDN
Cdn means Content delivery network, Cdn is a process to distribute content (Text, Graphic, Media, Codes, downloadable content) from a lot of Cdn dedicated server to your website. Everybody use it because it has faster content delivery system process than own hosting server response, default caching and more safety form hack. Free Cdn service is Cloudflare paid best Cdn service is Maxcdn
If you use Wordpress
There�s a lot of plugins what slows wordpress powered websites. Like floating share bar-icons, rating widgets etc. Deactivate those or control plugins loading time and make website free. Use valid and fast loading framework and themes like Diythemes, Studiopress, Woothemes can boost speed of wordpress powered websites.
Other optimizations you may do
�
Enable Gzip compression
Gzip compression reduce the size of files what sent from your web server to increase the speed to which they are transferred to visitors web browser or Compress your files when they are at server. Editing you .htaccess can solve this problem like-
�#Begin gzip and deflate
<IfModule mod_deflate.c>
AddOutputFilterByType DEFLATE text/html text/css application/x-javascript text/plain text/xml image/icon
</IfModule>
A lot of websites uses Google web fonts and less known font to customize website, recommended is to use default web fonts like Ariel, Times new roman. Plus this is not so important.
Videos optimizing
Video thumbnails, widget area video streaming take a while to load, if your site is not about video streaming, video optimizing can save you time to load.
Widgets, gadgets control
Widgets/gadgets makes site beautiful that�s alright but slow down site loading speed. You can delete Un-useful but fancy widgets/gadgets.
Before 5-10 second if your website gets loaded completely, then your website is fast enough. But If your site doesnt get loaded before 5-10 second you need to optimize heavily. Hope if you use these tips to optimize your website to load faster, you website will be get loaded before typing address in address bar :) How these tips working for you dont forget to mention. Goodluck....
HVAC Load Calculation Extension For AutoCAD MEP and Revit MEP
HVAC Load Calculation Extension For AutoCAD MEP and Revit MEP

The HVAC Load Calculation Extension by Autodesk, Inc. is a commercial and industrial HVAC (Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning) load calculation software package whose calculations are based upon the ASHRAE 2005 Fundamentals radiant time series (RTS) method. The purpose of this software is to provide you with total cooling and heating loads for a building so that you may properly specify the correct size HVAC equipment (whether it is a packaged rooftop unit or a boiler). This program is geared specifically toward the HVAC engineer, architect, design/build mechanical contractor, and building maintenance supervisor.
The HVAC Load Calculation Extension is available to customers of AutoCAD MEP 2009 and AutoCAD Revit MEP Suite 2009 on Autodesk Subscription and is subject to Autodesk Subscription terms and conditions.
The Extension supports sustainable design by allowing engineers to properly size HVAC equipment without oversizing. Conventional wisdom dictates that it is better to have too much cooling than not enough. Without the ability or tools to accurately calculate heating and cooling loads, oversizing equipment is a common practice. However, oversized equipment wastes a tremendous amount of energy throughout its lifetime. In a BIM-supported workflow, analysis capabilities and calculation tools (such as this Extension) enables designers and engineers to more thoroughly investigate design alternatives and optimize their emerging design for energy efficiency and sustainability.
The HVAC Load Calculation Extension uses formulas from the ASHRAE (American Society of Heating, Refrigerating, and Air-Conditioning Engineers) Handbook of Fundamentals. This publication compiles the fundamentals of the HVAC, such as methods for calculating peak cooling and heating loads for buildings.
The Extension produces a number of reports including: a summary load breakdown by individual room; a detailed load breakdown by individual load components such as roofs, walls, people, and lighting; and a psychrometric report that includes the properties of the entering and exiting air. Some of these reports include graphs for better visualization of the load breakdowns. Users also have the ability to export custom reports to Microsoft Word or Excel applications.
The Extension is able to import building information from AutoCAD MEP or Revit MEP using the gbXML file format. This means that all pertinent information about the building can be transferred to the Extension so that very little manual data entry is needed. Once the cooling and heating load calculations are performed, the results can be exported back to AutoCAD MEP or Revit MEP for proper duct and pipe sizing.
The HVAC Load Calculation Extension includes the following basic features:
- Inputs for HVAC system characteristics such as supply cooling and heating temperatures, ventilation rates, fan characteristics, cooling and heating setpoints, duct sizing, and safety factors
- Inputs for HVAC area (room) characteristics such as wall, window, roof, door, skylight, and partition areas. In addition, there are inputs for # of people, electrical appliances, infiltration, lighting, miscellaneous, exhaust, and plenum loads
- Weather data from over 800 cities throughout the world
- A complete u-value database for common wall, roof, window, floor, and door types
- A complete appliance list for determining internal electrical equipment load contributions
- Many reports including summary, detailed, psychrometric, wall/window breakdown, 24-hour load breakdown, and graphical reports
- A feature that allows the user to export all inputs and outputs to custom Microsoft Word and Excel documents
- Equipment selection
- Support for both English (IP) and Metric (SI) units
