LADEMINUS: Please what OS are the both of you running on ur ipads? And does any of you have winterboard theme app on either? Lemme know pls

Blackteeth: I dont think ios Will last far into the future. Apple phones are only popular and strong in the U.S with only 41% share of subscribers.
Android is going worldwide, and it would one day suppress ios like what windows PC did to macintosh.

babseg: no i didnt. android is user friendly thats y.

babseg: I know you are using iphone thats why you cant beat me in ruzzle

babseg: Yeah I know you can get android for $50 but you should compare the high end phones. Even $50 android phone is still better than any iphones

babseg: Common coogar pls don't say that. You should compare the high end android to high end iphone

redsun: But she's got what look like an inspector revolver in her profile picture.Aswell as lit up blunt(cigar).

She must be one of those top magomago police officer's offspring that got her way through the ranks with little or no strings attached.

namelesss: users of windows, symbians and android will always hate on iOS users. Apple products are classy and very expensive, they r not meant for every mobile user.... iCant compare a girl holding an iPhone with another with a tecno levels mehn!

Tonex: ^^
Abati is also a hypocrite. Some years ago, he was very adamant and vocal in criticising the Government and now he has changed because he is now one of them.

Both of them are hypocrites, so I see no reason why Abati should cast aspersions on Ribadu for doing the same thing he did a while ago

Obi insisted that Ndigbo were not and still not marginalised as claimed in some quarters. He said the Igbo were marginalising themselves . He lamented that it is only in Igboland that brothers and wives arrange kidnapping of their blood relations and spouses for money

Gbawe: One can tell that a highly insecure team GEJ is extremely rattled by Ribadu's utterance. This disgraceful, over-the-top and unpresidential attack against Ribadu is just unbelievable. The word "pr0st1tute" Sad and indicative of a highly paranoid and power-obsessed Presidency that has fully gotten into the gutter.

This will always happen when people are placed far above their station. His fans may not like to hear it but GEJ does not have the decorum, class, intelligence, pragmatism or self-assuredness to be President of the biggest black Nation on earth. Sadly, this is now showing every day.

redsun: Torture?Are you owning up to police brutality in nigeria?Abi u no be real police sef?

Policewoman: Still living with his parents at 32. I blame them for keeping an animal in their house that they call a son.

Baba Oyo: [b] A sequel to my other thread .....

.
Now I got home ystday evening, my wife had told me my son (OYO......lolllll) got a call from his new girlfriend's mum, she wants him to come around this weekend if he is going to be free!!
Was I shocked? Not at all.
I have read with much surprise how some posters here believed I shouldn't encourage my son (my first son/child) to date a girl who has agreed-on her own free will to date my son!!
.
She called him and introduced herself first, then asked to speak with my wife.
They exchanged greetings & she asked my wife if she was aware my son was dating her daughter? She answered she just got to know a few days back & she hadn't met Fola, the girl in question.
Fola's mum on the other hand told my wife her daughter told her elder sister in U.k about seeing a boy, bla bla bla.....and the sis in turn told the mum!
To cut the long story short, she said she would like to meet & know who her daughter was dating & if we don't mind he could come around next weekend!!!
.
.
I dare say, in raising my kids, I have taken a parent-friend relationship style with them, such that my kids won't be scared of telling me the "yo-things" of life (as my son calls it
).
I believe in an open & freedom to express yourself attitude!!
The Fola girl happened to be staying about 4 streets away in the same neighbourhood!!
I realise most people around the hood are liberal parents who take time out to bond with their kids too,(birds of the same feathers?), hence my non surprise at the request from the woman to meet who her daughter wants to date!!
.
Now if you think she is wrong for inviting her teenage daughter's boyfriend to her home, let me know & state ur reasons.
If you seem to agree on it, state the reason why u will do the same too!
.
I will be back to tell you why I don't find this strange at all.
Good Morning!!

StarBoard: I think Philip Lahm can testify to that. . .

AjanleKoko: I don't display aggression online.
My own locally-trained aggression is the type that physically kicks your front teeth in. Or maybe break your metacarpals, preventing you from typing for some time.

You're so lucky you are safe behind a keyboard wherever you are.

Donxavier: Not for long anymore. I remember reading somewhere that the new samsung galaxy 4 software will soon be available to be upgraded too on the galaxy s3

ewizard1: Latest phone? Lmao!!!

That where rooting got a$$ kicked. I got a friend who uses the same phone like i do. He was scared to root,so he's still wishing he had JellyBean. But me? I'm running the higest version of jellybean on ma device. Even waiting for KLP sef!

OMO IBO: I'm not a phone buff but these new designs and functionalities make me hate my blackberry.

I refuse to be tempted!

AjanleKoko: You just wan make I yab you today.
Not gonna happen jare

Frosti: But then, come to think of it, why are Apple's devices so expensive when compared to devices of the same range, power and specs?

kavey10: This guys wan dey wise up now, dissing Android but having most of its features. The whole iOS7 looks Android to me. #FightingALostWar!

AjanleKoko: Imagine oh. I made one random comment about hearing accents all around me, and all the Tokunbos are jumping out of the woodwork . . .

Who's insecure, really?

naijababe: Someday sha, you will tell us what it is you have against foreign degrees

dademola: lolol.look at d stats u're uploading. U wanna compare nani to ribery, and u're uploading a statistical comparism of nani and ronaldo in dia 1st 100games for utd. like someone said earlier; "anything just to win an arguement". Smh

RuuDie: I agree with Coogar... Nani is far better than Ribery and Robben!

dademola: so, u wld pick nani ahead of ribery, is dt what u're telling us??

Fussbot: Like who are these guys really?lwkm
Den don tae 4 man u o..

angelhair: Ok people I think there are some things we need to clarify cos I'm reading some posts and I'm wondering if its me they are talking about. First of all I am not maltreated or suffering in anyway so the suffering in silence part doesn't apply here. I am not a person to keep silent about anything and everyone knows that. Now the truth is, things were more or less back to normal for us, we were even out of town on holiday alone no kids when I saw that received call. So it's not like, I'm an abandoned wife and he is chasing the girl in question up and down. The whole thing has been going through my mind and I spoke to the lady in question. Apparently, she says he's called her a few times and she swears on her baby's life that nothing has ever happened since then. I asked her if she loves him and that I am willing to leave for both of them to be happy together and she said, "God forbid" that she has her own marriage and doesn't want anybody's issues. Well to cut the long story short, we are meeting up this week to talk. Things are pretty normal at home too so I'm hoping he's got the message. I will take the advice of giving him space and do things that make me happy. Thanks guys

Slyr0x: Android is open and customizable. iOS is closed, designed for ease.

Apple’s concern is likely that novice users might download and install an interface-changing app and not know how to remove it — “a bad experience.”

Find below a list of what Android has that iOS has not:

1. Keyboard Replacement

The most commonly requested customization we hear from iOS users is the option to replace the default keyboard. Simply shrinking a typewriter keyboard down for a tiny touch screen may not be the most efficient way to type, especially one-handed. Android lets you replace the default tap-to-type version with third-parties keyboards like SwiftKey which learns how you type to predict your words, and the popular Swype gesture typing keyboard. Advanced prediction and the ability to drag your finger between letters can drastically speed up communication.

2. Widgets

The iOS lock screen and home screen have begun to look quite static. With so many real-time feeds of information out there, from weather to finance to social, staring at wallpaper or a set of dead icons and folders buries information. Android lets you pull that data out from apps and splay it across your lock and home screens for value at a glance. While Apple has sought to make the iOS interface consistent, more experienced users would appreciate the ability to deviate to their own tastes.

3. Phone App Modifications

One under-appreciated advantage of Android is the ability to change the most basic part of a phone — the phone part. Apps can allow you to block certain numbers or entire area codes from calling you or send their calls straight to voicemail — handy for dealing with insistent telemarketers or ex-girl/boyfriends. You can set up custom Do Not Disturb modes that repond to calls or SMS with a pre-written text message. There’s even crowd sourced caller ID apps that pull in what other people have named numbers so you always know who’s calling. Mr. Number was a particularly powerful phone app mod who was rewarded for its innovation by being acquired by WhitePages. Mr. Number doesn’t even offer an iOS version because none of this functionality was allowed on iOS 6 or older.

4. Homescreen / Launcher Replacements

Launchers have long been a favorite of Android users, but Facebook Home brought the open / closed issue to the mainstream, demonstrating how your entire phone experience can be reskinned. Home lets you read the news feed from your lock screen, while others like GO Launcher EX, LauncherPro, and SO.HO let you navigate through gestures, offer quick access to certain settings, and provide pre-made themes amongst other options.

5. Cross-App Functionality, Data Sharing, and Defaults

Android doesn’t erect boundaries between apps like iOS. Thanks to App Intents, apps can easily share information and content with each other so you can send a photo from one editing app to another. They can even run over the top of one another, like Facebook’s Chat Heads which overlays chat conversations on whatever app you’re currently using. On iOS, Chat Heads is trapped within the Facebook app. Android also lets you pick which app you’d like to default to for opening certain media types, or doing certain actions.

6. Multi-User Support

Sharing one device between many people is a huge pain on iOS. You all have to use the same instance of the operating system. That means frequent log-ins and outs of different apps, overlapping phone books, a shared camera roll, and big issues for parents who don’t want to let their kids meddle with their whole phone or tablet when they hand it over to let them play a game. Android lets each user customize their account to their liking.

There are plenty of other personalization options on Android, including automation for scheduling tasks; quick controls for brightness, wifi, and airplane mode; the ability to track and manage your battery and data usage by restricting what certain apps can do; and SD cards for slotting in new data.

Of course, Apple isn’t fond of just following so we’ll hopefully get some true innovation in iOS 7 at WWDC tomorrow. But adding some of these features could unlock new opportunities for the developer community, attract more hardcore tech users, and let people feel like the Apple devices they carry everywhere are truly their own.
