UPDATE : Now, you can use the fully automated iPhone 3G baseband Downgrader.

If you are stuck with an Apple iPhone 3G with firmware 2.2.1 having baseband 02.30.03 here is some good news for you, a new exploit named pHaseBanDowngrader is now available to downgrade iPhone baseband from 02.30.03 to 02.28.00 which means it can be unlocked via YellowSn0w, users can now upgrade to iPhone Firmware v 2.2.1 and downgrade their baseband using this exploit to unlock their iPhone 3G's.

For this hack to work your iPhone must have Bootloader 5.8 which would be the case if you bought your iPhone before September 2008, newer iPhone's having firmware version 2.2.1 Out-Of-The-Box have newer Bootloader 5.9 which is not hackable as of now, to downgrade your iPhone baseband follow the steps described next.

My friends Compaq Presario C770TU laptop started having issues with external headphones and microphone being not recognized by Windows XP, contacting HP support regarding the problem resulted in the response below with links to download Windows XP drivers :

"I would like to share that the above mentioned notebook has not been certified on XP and hence not supported. Hence we would not encourage the use of NON-Certified drivers on the product as it may lead to degraded performance and damage the product in some instances which would then not be covered under standard warranty.

However if you would like to pursue Win XP installation on the product, I have captured the links below wherein the nearest compatible drivers are available."

First of all its very bad on HP's part to not support one of the world's most successful and widely used operating system, secondly the audio driver they sent links to download does not solved the problem, I had to try different Conexant audio drivers to finally find a working one , if you are having similar issues with your HP laptops follow the instructions ahead to get your headsets working on Windows XP.
