PhonesRe: Things Samsung's Galaxy S4 Can Do That Iphone 5S Can't by Dabss(m): 2:40pm On Dec 25, 2013
texazzpete: lol. Silly article. Throw in all the gimmicky, me-too features of the Galaxy S4 and use that as a 'my phone is better than yours argument'?

Some of the points are downright silly. If you buy an iPhone 5S, you KNOW it has a 4 inch screen and you like that screen size just fine. Claiming an advantage for the S4 because it has a one inch bigger screen is just lame.

I have an iPhone 5S and a Galaxy S4. Both complement each other. For me, the main differences lies with the difference between iOS and Android. One is more open, one is a closed source, walled garden ecosystem. Each has their advantages and disadvantages. Bringing up stuff like the IR blaster and NFC that hardly anyone uses is just funny cheesy
+1
apple will never burden it's customers with useless gimmicks like smart pause, air view etc.
Touch ID rocks.

Too much Apple is also not good for the teeth,
It can damage the enamel four times faster than carbonated drinks.
The damage is less when it is eaten during meals.

StarFlux: It's extremely good in low-light conditions (indoor, night etc when most other phones go black or noisy). I've taken some landscape shots with it that are better than the One X's 8mp camera which I had in the past. All in all a very good all-around camera. Doesn't capture the most detail, but it's hands down better than most 8MP cameras out there, and beats out all competition under low light conditions.

In my opinion it's a better phone than the S4. iPhone 5 doesn't deserve to be on the list. Apple hasn't done anything special since the release of the first iPhone, the 5s is just another iPhone that doesn't really bring anything new to the table.
you are joking right? apple hasn't done anything to be on the list?
First of all, the ip5s camera is better than the one's camera. yes, even in low light.
Apple introduced the first ever 64 bit mobile processor, that's not meaningful? Do a little research before spewing trash here dude.

Les: in addition, someone said something on the thread about phone accomplishment, he said he made an inter state journey with his phone but he missed road small, that wouldn't have been possible if he used"Here drive" application because it tells you what to do through out the journey and bring you to your destination with voice navigation, very sweet application(I don't know if it's on android but I don't think so) most great applications are not functioning in Nigeria, major disadvantage. For Facebook?? My phone is Facebook and Facebook is my phone, only Lumia users know what I'm talking about. I don't need to type my msg on Facebook, I speak it, my phone types and send on Facebook o. Imagine when you don't want to type, you just read your msg, the phone types and send. I love my Lumia
SIRI? GOOGLE NOW?

PhonesRe: This Airtel Backlash Is Misguided! by Dabss(m): 12:28pm On Dec 05, 2013
texazzpete: Opinions, how do they work?

My opinion is that this is misguided. It IS my business because this is a discussion forum and I choose to opine and discuss on this issue.

The exploit works now, but for how long? For all you know, it's a slow migration/rollout that will take time, and the December 3rd date may just have been the commencement date. We don't know.
if they decide to block non Bb access fine!
Fact: more than half of their current subscribers don't use their sim cards for calls so I don't see that happening but Let's watch and see.
PhonesRe: This Airtel Backlash Is Misguided! by Dabss(m): 12:04pm On Dec 05, 2013
texazzpete: Thank you for mirroring my very words. If you don't like Airtel's service (including their data plans) move away from the network. It took me less than 2 hours to port from Airtel to Etisalat.

This has nothing to do with me 'having change in my pocket'. Airtel BIS was never intended for use in Android phones. People were taking advantage of an exploit that has now been closed. This backlash IS unwarranted.

That said, my OP addresses the main reason why the exploit was so vigorously pursued in the first place. People wanted cheaper Internet for their Android devices. The real conversation here is the provision of more affordable data bundles to the people who aren't exactly high income earners. That discussion is best held at the level of the NCC, or with all the carriers taken on at once (Glo, MTN , Etisalat, Airtel).

Targeting Airtel alone is unfair, unreasonable and useless.

Do you people know that if everyone here contributes a minimum of N1000, we can take out a half page ad in Guardian Newspapers to write an open letter to the NCC and all the carriers? But please, don't let me stop you from making one more thread about breaking your Airtel SIM cards cheesy
I never posted in any of the Airtel threads but I still think it's non of your business since u don't own nairaland or Airtel.

Ps. Airtel Bb plans still work on android. So maybe their insignificant noise was heard after all wink
PhonesRe: This Airtel Backlash Is Misguided! by Dabss(m): 8:24am On Dec 05, 2013
texazzpete: Guys, we get it. You're upset that the exploit you've used to use BIS data on your cheap Android phones is being closed by Airtel. You're upset that now, you'll have to start paying for your data bundles like the rest of the populace. Yes, data plans are not cheap.

But please, can you people STFU for once and stop this incessant whining?
just because you have a little change in your pocket, gives you no right to insult those who complain in the only way they can.
If you don't like a topic, simply ignore it.
IslamRe: A Muslim's View Of The Ban On Alcohol In Kano State by Dabss(m): 7:41pm On Dec 04, 2013
Sissie: We do not have to turn everything into a Christianity vs islam thing. Destroying the bottles affect some Muslims too.
it affects Muslims how?
Sissie: You are comparing alcohol with sugar really!!!!!!!

Alcohol does not only affect the drinker it affects others too, I.e the innocent bystander that gets killed by a drunk driver, the wife that gets molested, etc. The list is endless. Alcoholism is a disease and should be treated as one.

One does not need to be religious to be anti-alcohol.
In other words, everyone that takes alcohol should suffer for the crimes of a few alcoholics?
I agree!
I also agree that the Hijab should be banned in kano too because some girls use it for exam malpractice.

Christianity EtcAngola Bans Islam And Shuts Down All Mosques by Dabss(op): 6:07pm On Nov 26, 2013
Angola has reportedly declared Islam illegal and ordered for all of the country’s mosques to be closed down.

Minister of culture Rosa Cruz e Silva said that mosques in the largely Christian country would be closed until further notice.

She described Islam as a ‘sect’ that would be banned as counter to Angolan customs and culture.
Angola (capital, Luanda, pictured) has reportedly declared Islam illegal and ordered for all mosques to be closed
There are unconfirmed reports that mosques across the African country are being destroyed, according to the International Business Times.

President Jose Edurado dos Santos reportedly told the Osun Defence daily: ‘This is the final end of Islamic influence in our country.’

Along with Islam, which is a religion associated with less than 1 per cent of the population of 19 million, 194 other ‘sects’ have been banned in the nation, where more than half the population is Christian.

Ms Cruz e Silva said: ‘The legalisation of Islam has not been approved by the Ministry of Justice and Human Rights [and] their mosques will be closed until further notice.’

Clashes between Christians and Muslim people are frequently reported in the local media.

PhonesRe: Airtel Has Began Auto Subscribing Users To Shortcode Services by Dabss(m): 12:51pm On Nov 22, 2013
slightlyMad: the ugly part is that when you are billed, one seems to resign to fate that "well, the deed has been done, i'll unsub when am less busy"
then you forget and only to be reminded by another billing.

i guess that leaves Glo as a PORTable network.
don't be in a hurry to port to glo sis. At least mtn and Airtel customer care will attend to ur problems. Glo customer care staff will always pretend that they can't hear you until you hang up out of frustration.
