Samsung Bluetooth Headset Factory Reset

Had this little fella Samsung Bluetooth Headset mic not working for sometime and was about to dump it off, then I decided to reset it to factory settings. Miraculously it works.

Factory reset steps:

1. Turn off the device.

2. Hold down both volume keys and hold talk button for 5 seconds

3. Turn on the device

4. If pairing is needed, press talk button for 3 seconds. Start pairing process.

A system restart is pending, you must restart the computer before installing IBM i Access

Message box keep appearing stating " A system restart is pending, you must restart the computer before installing IBM i Access ... "

Workaround for this :

1. Backup Windows Registry Key

2. Navigate to  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE - SYSTEM - CURRENTCONTROLSET - CONTROL - SESSION MANAGER

3. Delete "PendingFileRenameOperations"

Since port 80 is used as http remote access port external port range 80-80 is invalid

Configure DLink DSL-2750U for Port Forwarding using port 80 is a real pain and time consuming process. Was stucked at error “Since port 80 is used as http remote access port. External Port range 80-80 is invalid” for hours looking at all the options available. There’s no clear indication on the menu which shows how to disable or change the http remote access port.

 

Here’s how :

·         Click on MAINTENANCE – ACCESS CONTROLS – SERVICES – REMOTE ACCESS CONTROL – SERVICES.

·         Select HTTP = Enabled. Change the port from 80 to 8080 or different port.

·         Click APPLY.

Encountering error message “ directory could not be validated as a non existing or an empty directory “ when trying to install Websphere Update Installer.

Solution :

Go to %windir%\vpd.properties.  Delete file .vpd.properties

Keep getting error  “java.lang.Exception: java.sql.SQLException: null userid not supported DSRA0010E: SQL State = null, Error Code = -99,999.

Managed to resolved this by restarting all JAVA process -> deployment manager, application server, node agent.
