BusinessRe: Rising Electricity Theft Cases Threaten N150bn Meter Market by 4llerbuntu(m): 4:57pm On Oct 24, 2014
etunoman76:
To this end, Sir Collins Onyeama, the Managing Director, Techno Gas and Power, manufacturers of prepaid meters in Nigeria, told our correspondent that electricity theft remained a major challenge for meter manufacturers in the country, the power distribution companies and the power sector as a whole.

According to him, the menace results in a huge loss for operators in the sector, as operators end up not getting value for services rendered.

He stressed that people benefitting from such practices can never appreciate the importance of prepaid meters.

http://www.punchng.com/business/business-economy/rising-electricity-theft-cases-threaten-n150bn-meter-market/
but how does meter tampering affect the person [size=14pt]SELLING THE METER?
[/size]

IS IT NOT THE PERSON SELLING POWER THAT SHOULD BE COMPLAINING?


If you want to create excuses for not installing meters for consumers at least let the proper person do his own dirty job.

moreover, this tampering thing is applicable to the old meters. the prepaid ones cannot be adjusted without a high level of skill which would mean its the same DISCO officials that are doing it


besides HE WHO COMES TO EQUITY MUST COME WITH CLEAN HANDS.

DISCO that robs their customers should not be heard to be complaining that the customers are cheating them...

Am not an installer, but through info from the guru on this forum i was able to track My TV, Multi TV and Amos 5 with all hiting green but my main challenges is that all Channel on Amos 5 are scramble mean lock except DISH & CCTV.
1.Can someone please assist me with info on how to get FTA on amos 5, as most (not all) of the channels appear same as DSTV channel
2. My decoder is Str 4940 can it work with biss key
3 if the answer to Q2 is no which of the below decoder will give the best in term of FTA
a. CLOUD IBOX 2+ PLUS HD FTA SATELLITE RECEIVER DVBS 2 IPTV READY FREE TO AIR LINUX.
b. Viewsat 9000 HD
c. Sonicview 8000 HD.
rgds
you did not track Amos 5, u tracked DSTV.

for Amos 5, to get the most out of it, track with 10804 v 3000, get a signal then blindscan.

these decoders are no-name decoders.

4ller,
Post a link to the particular page with the solution. I'm very interested in it.
Gracias
4llerbuntu:
if you have filled up storage that is preventing you from installing apps on MTK devices, u need root.

if you are not rooted, uninstall a few of your apps till u can install superuser and a root file browser like root explorer or es file explorer.

find out how to root the device.


use the file explorer to gain access to the / folder.


then delete the MTK logger app in /system/app


Delete all the junk files that are in the following folders:

/data/log_other_mode

/data/lost+found

/data/dalvik-cache


Reboot IMMEDIATELY.



you issues should be solved.

na wah o.
every page on this thread has this storage complaint meanwhile the solutions can be found on the previous page.

is the reading block now this bad?
PhonesRe: Android, Anyone? Part II by 4llerbuntu(m):
wash.

1.
The real reason Samsung is successful is that it has vertical integration. almost every part used in a Samsung device is produced by other divisions of Samsung.

they have first call on materials, they can spec their devices to taste and design without limitation.
and more importantly they can get them cheap.

other OEMs have to place orders, queue up for product placement in China etc.


and best of all Samsung sells parts to other OEMS and therefore have knowledge of what they are doing beforehand.


2.
Samsung realized the heterogeneity of android and helped shape the market early on.

as much as they get criticism for copying apple the one thing they never did is copy apple business model. the idea of a single flagship and two midtier devices in a year was never going to corner the consumers android market. neither was selling one device for multiple years as lower end option.

Samsung releases close to 25 devices every year. let that sink in. 5 of every 10 devices available for sale on shelves are Samsung made.

let's face it, the same way toyota won't corner the luxury car market from lamoborghini, jaguar etc. is the way no one is gonna corner the luxury phone market from Apple. Asians do not dictate luxury, America and Europe does.


3. advertising
big advantage. Samsung made sure they are pretty visible.

BUT

if it was merely advertising surely another OEM could have had a go at the same tactic? even borrow money to advertise if it would guarantee success.

plus u also fail to factor in how much de-marketing Samsung faces. every damn America based media asset actively denigrates Samsung at every opportunity they get whilst taking their advertising money.

look at the Web, all those references to cheap plastic and laggy software came from where? people who have never bought a Samsung device go about complaining about it. go figure.

Touchwiz is hardly the worst skin in android yet nothing gets worse reviews than it. in fact you would think it was the only skin sef.

contrast Bendgate with any Samsung fiasco.
you see people, sites, critics, actively making excuses for Apple and trying explain away the flaws. u honestly think that can happen with Sammy? ......

and that's despite the fact that Samsung spend so much on PR.


the recent success of Chinese OEMs in cannibalizing the low end got so much play as being against Samsung you would be forgiven for thinking samsung would be dead in 6 months when in reality other companies are even worse off .

if low end market is not available for Samsung then how can it ever be for Sony and HTC?


Android will be fine. its too ubiquitous now to just die

when all is said and done, the only android OEM able to take massive losses and still stand is Samsung. the other parts of the Samsung group can support it like Microsoft keeps Windows Phone alive. the other ndroid oems will fold up before Samsung, that's for certain.

and for the Chinese cannibals, the solution is simple, Google just needs to grow the balls to do it. close android core sources remove everything else from the core and put them up as apps and close the source.

it means no more unofficial AOSP, it means a lot of sponsored demarketing from people who are gonna lose but to kill the cannibals, it needs to be done.

michazy: You mean I should move it to the left a bit from astra? Am I going to move the dish down or up, since astra is 22 and amos is 17, so I think it should be up.
oga please READ my initial answer. I already said you move SLIGHTLY TO THE LEFT STANDING BEHIND THE DISH AND DOWN

by slightly I mean very little,and by down I mean the dish tilts down small.


and I don't know where you guys get some info from about satellites....

rule of thumb. you track SATs with the visible horizon (where the sky meets the earth) as hypothetical 0° so u tilt up/down relative to that.

and note

EUTELSAT W4/W8 DSTV IS AT 36° E

ASTRA 2B/F (MULTITV) IS AT 28°E

AMOS 5 (DAARSAT) IS AT 17°E


the more u tilt the dish to face the sky, the higher the sat degree u tracking............ until u get to advanced level when u then learn that there are many ways to bell the cat
