Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Ask your carrier if your phone is eligible for a free unlock. Search for "HTC phone unlocking service". Open your "Settings" menu. Select the "About Phone" tab, then open "Phone Identity". Scroll down to find your IMEI number, then write it down. Enter your IMEI number and email address into the unlock service's site. Purchase your code using a secure payment method. Check your email for an unlock code. When you receive your unlock code, write it down. Purchase a SIM card for your new network. Hold down the power button, then select the "power down" option. Find the SIM card access slot. Insert your card removal tool into the hole next to the slot. Remove the old SIM card from the tray. Insert your new SIM card into the tray. Hold down the power button. If you have a SIM pin number, enter it now. Enter your unlock code. Confirm that your unlock was successful.

Answer: You should only use an unlocking service if your carrier refuses to unlock your phone. Reputable services include "Free Unlocks" and "CellServices (around $20), as well as UnlockBase (around $10). This menu contains information about your carrier (e.g., Verizon or Sprint), your phone model number, and your IMEI number. The unlock service will need this International Mobile Equipment Identity (IMEI) number in order to issue a code to you. The unlock service should not ask you for personal information such as your home address. You may have to enter your phone number and name as it appears on your contract. Most unlocking services support PayPal--your most secure option--in addition to standard Visa cards. If you want to use PayPal but don't have an account, set one up for this transaction. Most services will send you your code within an hour, though some take as long as three business days. Most unlock services will tell you approximately how long you'll be waiting for the unlock code on their website. You will need to enter this number into your phone after installing a new SIM. To activate the unlock code input, you'll need to replace the current SIM. You can find SIM cards at their respective carrier stores (e.g., a Sprint SIM card would come from a Sprint store). Turning off your phone will prevent the SIM card from being damaged when you remove it. It should be located on the side of your phone, on the same side as the Power button. The SIM card tray should slide out. Your card removal tool should have come with your phone, but you can also (gently) use a bent paper clip for this step. Your service provider can also open your SIM slot for you. Set it aside in a safe place, such as a plastic bag. It should only fit one way, with the gold strips pointing down (away from the screen side of the phone). This should turn your phone back on. Your phone may reboot after this point. If you switched from AT&T to Verizon, for example, the service provider name in the information bar at the top of your screen should say "Verizon" instead of "AT&T".

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Turn the soil. Pull or dig out the weeds. Apply vinegar. Use urine. Smother the area with mulch.

Answer: Dig under the foxtail and turn the plants under the soil, packing them down into the dark, hot conditions. Doing so can impede growth and help kill off this pesky grass. Work by moonlight, at dawn, or at dusk. There is some speculation that turning the soil exposes the foxtail to a bright flash of light, thereby stimulating the plant and making it grow faster. If you turn the soil at night instead of during daylight hours, though, you can reduce this effect by as much as 78 percent. Alternatively, you could dig out the weeds one by one and dispose of them elsewhere, away from the contaminated area. Make sure that you remove the entire plant, including the roots, and not just the top portion. Remove the seed heads first to prevent them from spreading and repopulating the area with additional foxtail. After removing the seed heads, dig beneath the plants using a long, slender weeding tool to get at the long roots. Note that weeds are easier to pull when the soil is wet and the weeds are young. Foxtail is no exception to the rule. Pull the foxtail from its base if working by hand. Wear thick gardening gloves to protect your hands as you work. You could try using a mower or weed-wacker to cut off the tops and flowering heads of the foxtail. You will need to continually re-trim the foxtail throughout the season, though, since the plant will send up another flowering head as the summer progresses. If you do opt for the mower or weed-wacker option, make sure that you clean the blades afterward to prevent the accidental spread of foxtail seed. You should also rake the lawn to remove all the heads. Taking these additional steps will improve your chances of removing the foxtail with only a surface mowing. If you like the ease and effectiveness of herbicides but do not like to use harsh chemicals on your vegetation, you can use vinegar instead. Vinegar is a natural and fairly tame acid, but it has been known to be effective in the removal of weed-type grasses like foxtail. A typical USDA-approved vinegar is five-percent acetic acid. Pour the vinegar directly onto the foxtail at the ground level. The basic idea is to get it as close to the roots as possible. Use enough vinegar to soak the soil beneath the foxtail. It does not need to be soggy, but it should be damp to the touch. Wait a week or two after the first application and monitor the effects. Dead or dying foxtail should be pulled as soon as possible. Foxtail that is still growing even after you use the vinegar should be soaked with another round. Reapply the vinegar as needed. Note that vinegar tends to be more effective when used on fox tail at the seedling state. It might not help quite as much on mature plants. While the concept of pouring urine onto a lawn or other area of vegetation may make you cringe, it can be just as effective as vinegar when used as an herbicide. Urine is a strong, organic alkaline substance, so it can kill foxtail in the same way that a chemical herbicide might. You can purchase "predator urine" products at garden stores. These products are usually used as deterrents or repellents against small garden pests, but they can also be used for herbicidal purposes. A cheaper and even more effective solution would be to use human urine. Collect the urine in a bucket and pour it straight onto the base of the foxtail, aiming for direct contact with the roots. As with many other control methods, you might need to use multiple applications of urine or use this organic herbicide in conjunction with physical removal methods. Remove the clumps of foxtail by hand or with a garden hoe once you notice them dying off. If the foxtail is still fairly young, kill the new growth as soon as possible by covering it with some form of mulch. Mulch can prevent sunlight and air from reaching the foxtail, essentially depriving it of the nutrients and light necessary for growth. The foxtail will need to be trimmed close to the ground before you can apply mulch and use it as a way to get rid of the weed. If you have other plants and vegetation that you are trying to preserve, spread the mulch in between the plants and along the rows. Make sure that it covers the foxtail. Organic mulches like wheat straw, shredded leaves, and wood chips work well. Spread about 2 inches (5 cm) of mulch. You could also layer damp black-ink-only newsprint beneath the mulch to improve its ability to inhibit growth.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Choose the shape for your flag. Choose a simple design. Use 2 to 3 colors.

Answer:
Most flags are either rectangular or square. Your flag doesn't have to be rectangular, but you should stick to simple shapes that are easy to see from a distance. For example, Nepal's flag is made of two overlapping triangles. Consider what you will be using your flag for. A triangle will work well for a pennant flat, while a rectangle will work for a sports flag. In general, rectangles are the easiest shape to work with because they give you the most space to create your design on. Some of the most common flag designs are bicolors, tricolors, and quarters, or use stripes, panels, and borders. The flag can also be a solid color with a unique symbol in the center. Alternatively, you can place a rectangle in the upper left hand corner called a canton (like on the American flag) that includes a symbol. You could create a symmetrical flag, like Japan's flag, or an asymmetrical flag, like Norway's flag. Look at flags for other countries and sports teams to get ideas. If you really want a detailed flag, take a look at some of the state and community flags. As a general rule, you should only use 2 to 3 colors in your flag design. If you use more they can be hard to distinguish. The most common colors found on flags are black, blue, green, red, white, and yellow. You can use light and dark colors to create contrast. You do not need to stick to the most popular colors. Instead, choose a color that symbolizes the place or organization your flag represents. Avoid colors that are too similar to each other, such as red and orange or navy and dark purple. They won't stand out as well.
