Chrome To Phone alternative for Android 2.1

The Chrome and Firefox has a simply extension to pull links into mobile,but sadly it's not compatible with my phone. There is an free alternative which doesn't requires to have an GMail account,works on Android Eclair and Symbian,Windows Mobile phones and you can pull not only links but also:

• Geo location on Google Maps
• Phone Number
• Calendar Event
• Contact Information
• SMS
• Text
• Wifi Network login details

It's called ZXing and you can download it from the Android Market or official website. It's a QR Code scanner and you will need to copy the link or text you want and generate the QR code using online QR code generator. 

QR code of my blog.

Lunch the ZXing app on your phone and it will automatically read the code.

 Now you may wonder how to pull links from phone to computer. It's quite simple,just download an Opera Mini for your phone and turn on Opera Link feature in settings menu. 

Here is some good QR code scanners for other mobile phones.

Do More With 7-Zip

7-Zip is one the best freeware and open source compression utilities so far. I use it a lot when I don't want to install a software and poop into my registry. Plus it works with any EXE and DLL file so you can look inside the program resources. Also I randomly figured that new 9.15 Beta and older 9.x series works nice with extracting SWF and FlashVideo files.

 The comments always helps to see what's inside. After extracting a audio file it was a acc file inside,but no player worked with it. Somehow headers was messed up. But the behind.audio.flv worked just fine. The easiest way to extract audio from Youtube movies is download FormatFactory . It's freeware and the best converter I found. Works just fine when you need to rip a DVD into single iPod video file.

Extracting textures and music resources from Flash games:

Simple download a SWF file and open with 7-zip.

 All you will see is the one single file that we need to extract again. Open the Flash file with tilde in 7-zip and you should see something like this:

That's all. By the comments you can easy figure out where is JPEG image and MP3/WAV sounds. :)
If you want more tools for editing and creating Flash files take a look at these resources:
