The American movie industry otherwise known as Hollywood has been criticized for making A-list actor, Will Smith, sound like a non-nigerian in the soon to be released movie, CONCUSSION.

In the movie, Will Smith played real-life Nigerian pathologist Dr. Bennet Omalu, who discovered that the hard hits US football players receive in the National Football League (NFL) may cause serious brain damage. His revelations, published in a 2005 paper in the journal Neurosurgery, threatened to kill the game. As the 2013 Frontline documentary “League of Denial” shows, Omalu faced significant pressure to stay quiet about his findings.

S5 is not among the phones listed yet by Samsung to get the upgrade. Hopefully, in due time it will definitely be listed

About 2 weeks ago Google announced its next android flagship, Android 6.0 Marshmallow, which will probably be released on Nexus 5 and Nexus 6 in October later this year. This news sends happy feelings into the minds of many android phones users. This is so because of the many improvement the marshmallow will have over the much loved lollipop.

If you are considering installing the Android marshmallow 6.0 once it is released for your device, then, it will be good to know about the many improvements that will come with it, making it beat Android 5.0 lollipop.

1. “Doze” Power Management

A common complain among android users is the short battery life. However, Google seems to have a solution for that by introducing a new feature to Android 6.0 Marshmallow. It seems that new feature will be called “Doze” and it will optimize the background processes, which will result in less power usage.


2. Fingerprint Support

The highest security standards on a smartphone are fingerprint scanners and Google will bring this feature to the Android 6.0 Marshmallow. So, if you want to make payments, purchase applications, unlock the device, and more, likely, all you do alongside other security features is to scan your fingerprint. This feature has only been on Samsung Galaxy S6 but Google is now bringing it to Android 6.0 Marshmallow. To me, this is a very cool feature.


3. “Google Now”
“Google Now” has been improved in the upcoming Android 6.0. Users will be able to run the “OK Google” command from any part of the screen. In addition, the virtual assistant will come with a “Now Tap” feature, which will allow you to bring up important information while performing other tasks.


4. App Permission
This is another cool feature of Android 6.0. The app permission introduced in marshmallow is going to allow the users to decide how much access a particular application can get before installing it. In Android 5.0 lollipop and earlier versions, users can't customize their permission. They will just need to accept the default permission for each application or else they will not be able to install the apps.

To me, all this features in marshmallow are very much necessary and more are still to come.

It should be noted that Android lollipop 5.0 and Android marshmallow will perhaps have the same display. The Marshmallow will only add some improvements to, and fix some bugs on Lollipop.

Here is the gist: Blackberry is about to launch its android phones series and one of such much awaited phones is called Blackberry Venice.

As reported by a Vietnamese blog, Tinhte.vn,the phone apparent specifications are;

- 5.4–inch display with 2560 x 1440 resolutions.

- 1.8GHz snapdragon 808 processors

- 3GB of RAM.

- MicroSD storage expansion support

- 18–Megapixel rear camera with optical image stabilization and 5 Megapixel front-facing camera.

- Android 5.0 lollipop operating system.

It's not yet clear what the price of this phone will be or when it will be in stores around the world, but it is being rumored to be on sales probably around November or there about.

One thing that is clear is that Blackberry is determined to become a driving force once again in the smartphone world and to gain back its reputation by giving android a chance.

Below are snapshots of Blackberry Venice

primeson1:
I upgraded hit note pro. yesterday to lollipop 0828 version. I discovered my airtel sim
is not working again. I used both sim slots, yet no show. The phone
detects the sim but I can't make calls, sms or check balance.
I have registered the sim and it's working perfectly on my small
torchlight tecno phone.
Please help o cos my Etisalat sim works on both slots.
I discovered something too, if I press *#06# and it shows invalid for the
two sim slots. Who's is experiencing this.

The problem is with ur imei number. Seems u have tampered with it and thus ur phone is being affected. Try to flash back ur original imei number and it should work.

DharmeeTee:
Does upgrading to lollipop add onscreen buttons?

Nope.. U will have to add it ursef by editing ur build.prop and most times it works for rooted phones only.

Olsoo:
More than ok. Thanks. Can you share me a valif process that wont brick my device? Thanks in advance.

You can easily update ur device and not brick ur fone. I did mine by following the procedure I read on a tech site like dat and it was so easy.Lemme post u d link add


http://hotfixtech..com/2015/09/how-to-upgrade-your-infinix-hot-note.html?m=1

Also, don't flash d earlier lollipop version and then upgrade. It's a waste of time and data. Just flash the latest update 0828 directly on ur device and you are good to go.

BTW, make sure that ur device is not rooted. If rooted already, pls unroot it and flash the stock recovery bfo u proceed

Chyjoey:
Please THEy should just fix the ram issue and make the xui version bugless or ....am sticking to 730 or porting comfort rom

The ram issue has been fixed. The new 0828 update has a good ram optimization.

Thank God for enlightenment and the internet. I jus got a text msg from the same Boss group asking me to come for an interview tomorrow at Ikeja, though I did not submit my resume anywhere. Na to rest my mind and still dey enjoy my post Nysc days in Gusau until I decide to enter lasgidi.

na wao

Deshannel:
Really iyanya fit sing but the main reason Nii no win na because I'm be ghana(half blood).

why una like to dey create wahala?Nii could not win because he was not the best. there were some times that Nii did not sing well but was left there just because he moved the crowds.But remember that the competition was a singing competition not dancing,fashion or crowd moving one.Even the Ghanian judge wanted Inyanya.
MOreso, do you think if Nii was a nigerian he would have been the 1st runner up? Logically all Ghanian voted for him but most nigerian votes must have been shared among Praise, Inyanya and Anette

Lakeside:
still waiting for answer my friends,
tell me more!!!

If u need more on them, try one of the following
1) go to any of their local congregations
2) Visit their websites[url][/url]www.watchtower.org
3)Read any of their publications




NB: Nobody is your informant on Jehovah's witnesses.

Hey Ikare. See them one on one or visit their local congregations for information about their view on that

Lakeside:
@dinkyxta
why didnt yu reply my mail . i mean the one in yur yahoo mail box?

Hey lakeside, ucan not really know well about jehovah's witnessses here.Why not meet any of them one on one or perhaps get this brochure from any of them titled "Jehovah Witnesses-who are they.What do they believe". I assure you that they will be glad to offer you one

nothing is impossible under the heavens. its normal every where.but what hurt most is that Nig is always one of the countries that this unholy act affect negatively because every team want to defeat the eagles or hv them out of any tournament, although we self  dey always lik to dey fumble 4 matches

Bolarge:
See as ddem look like Oshodi area boys.
Na dse same igiripas go play awa ajeburra boys so?

I hope say Mikel go fit play carling cup final 4 me after him play this kind kingkong players( i no abuse them oo)

Saluscs:
i don't think anything good can come out from 2day match
Nig are going no were

kenypumpin:
mali 0 nigeria 4 up super eagles

u don 4get say na 11-11 players and their post no wide pass una own

A nigerian novel titled 'The New Man'

stag:
@khai_khai.You can even say you do not have any money, them no dey vex put
them don dey vex put o. u do not drop the supposed donation, then they aint giving u any. am a passionate reader of their journal both awake n watchtower. but when they started refusing to let go of the journals except you're a donor -i quit. sure of ones around broadstreet, marina, ipaja, egbeda so it aint just one group of them

with stag abi wetin you call yourself,  even if you are ready to contribute a million naira but aint really interested in reading their magazines, they would never give it out to you. Moreover, the funniest thing with most of you is that you pick ideas from what other people say not what you know or have experienced

1naijaboy:
Is it just me or Jehovah Witnesses have a way of annoying the shit out if you?They come smiling sheepishly and tell you they want tpo have a chat with you.Even though you might not have the time and patience,you give them 5mins,then they go on and on.Where the gist leads to sounds like something like this:We have a magazine here that you should read but though we don't accept money,but we do accept donations.What the mess is a donation!They never talk to you without soliciting for money.Didnt Jesus say something like seek first the kingdom of God and you cannot serve God and Mammon??   What y"all think

Actuaaly the first time they came to me,first they asked me how long I could spare them to discuss with me. After the discussion, they showed me some magazines which they said do not have a price but base on voluntary contributions from people like me and then  asked if I was willing to collect any of it. I collected two and contributed a very unimmagined small amount. So, naijaboy, think of other ways of being against the Jw's cos everything you posted are nothing but lies.

hmmmm
