Can your lock screen pattern be easily hacked? How complicated is it? Here is mine. Post yours!

And you'll go through the hassle of drawing this thing each and every time ur screen locks? My dear I no fit.

darsmarth:
no need to waste time...dial this code *443*3# and get free 400mb..gotten mine already
lucky sims, try yours
*141*1*1# to check balance

How do I confirm that it's actually working? I dialed it, they haven't shown my balance. I can't see it working cos they are still taking from my subscribed data.

Unabefool:
Recall that etisalat recently introduced a tariff plan called "easylife 4.0 limited edition" that enables you to call any network at 11K/sec with #5 daily access fee. MTN has followed suit by introducing a similar package called TruTalk+.

Call all networks across Naija for only 11 kobo per second on the new MTN TruTalk+!
You also get to call the world at 20k per second! All you have to do is dial *123*20# to migrate and pay a daily access fee of N5 to enjoy this super tariff plan from MTN

Let the competition begin!

what more can I say.

I saw the advert on the sun newspaper. Call @ 11k/sec to any network in Nigeria on MTN true talk plus. Dial *123*20# to migrate with N5 access fee. Also call Uk (landline and mobile ),Usa, Canada, india and China @ 20k/sec. The front page of Sun newspaper (18/5/2015). The funniest thing is that they didn't wait for like 1 month before introducting this plan. Hmmmm I smell change in the air. Dstv. You better get ready for the change after hand over

Are you sure they didn't make mistake and write MTN instead of etisalat?

MTN reply etisalat by introducing MTN true talk plus by charging same rate with etisalat.

Downloaded, played games and browsed the internet continuously for 5hrs 37mins (12 noon to 5.37pm) and you spent only 37% of your battery in over 5hrs of your screen on? Who can confirm or debunk this?

Damjoy:
Please can anyone help me. Why does the Imei tweaking for Mb not working on Techno P5+

Hello everybody, please how's battery life on this phone?

Emmyk:
All I know is that I have been on EasyLife 4.0 since last month.

I migrated there because I heard you pay 5naira or so to browse for 3hours.

Because you heard of it only 2 days ago doesn't mean they introduced it that day.

Mr Man the plan was launched on 14th.

SleekyP:

And to say that the thing doesn't require pin or any sort of password means anybody that gets ur phone can easily transfer 20k to his or her account that day. All thanks to GTBank.

Unabefool:
My phone don't screen shot but I will paste exactly the response an etisalat customer care agent gave me on Facebook when I asked if charge is made if call is not made in day in the new tariff.. I got this response below::::!

Etisalat Nigeria
Hi, Maureen here. The 5 Naira daily access fee is charged on your first call. So, you will not be charged if you don’t make a call

Meaning they are talking from both sides of their mouths. Is it that some customer care reps don't know atimes what's going on? I smell rat...

Unabefool:
no. Not true.. This is day 2 since I opt into the plan. My N5 was not deducted at 00.00 o'clock but was deducted when I made my first call few hours back.

Well, na you sabi but here is my proof in pic, show me yours.

Popemax:
Hope after migrating they will still be giving me bonus from my recharge....like load 1000k to get 1000k

No they won't.

Emmyk:
Makes sense. Been on the tariff for a while now and didn't even know about this.

You couldn't have been on this tariff for a while now, it was only introduced on 14th of May 2015.

Hotdiamond:
They said the 5 Naira will be triggered by the first voice call of the day. Meaning That if you don't make any calls your money will be intact.
I may be wrong about this.

But it's not like that. The access fee is taken by 00.00 o'clock.

asuustrike2009:
MTN 4.5g is N2,500 right? 1.5g during day and 3g at night isn't it? But supposing you had exhausted 1.5g during the day, would you wait till night to browse?. Supposing after browsing at night and you were left with say 2.9g, can you use it during the day to browse?. the answer is "No". You would have to wait till night again to continue browsing. That was why glo came up with 4.5g to browse both day and night. The browsing speed of glo is slow nearly in all the states in Nigeria and those that bought their data hardly exhaust it before it expires. Etisalat and Airtel offer android bundle @ N2,000 for 2g which is a bit fair considering their network speed is fast in nearly the 36 states of the federation. At least 60% of airtel and 80% of etisalat network base have good network reception for browsing. Glo may offer 4.5g but you might not finish it depending on your location. So many nairalander had complained about them. MTN may seems perfect but the data allocation for day and night spoilt it all. MTN better Me plan seems sceptical even though it is 2015 for N2,015, they are silent on whether you can browse all sites as you use your normal data. Perharps that is why etisalat introduce android bundle even down to the N1,000 for 1g( selected sims only) after the Heat from other operators.

In situations like the MTN plan, I think one should apply wisdom. Do all your light browsing and chatting during the day and delay your downloads later in the nite, it's that simple. You can also use the data allotted for nite use during the day, just make sure u don't switch off your data or phone once is 5.59am. It's all about Using common sense.
I can't see myself paying 2k for 2GB when I can easily add N500 and get a whopping 4.5GB. I can tell you that out of that 3gb for nite, most times I use more than 2gb from it during the day. Mtn is the best any time any day.

Youngpo413:
get a windowsphone and thank me later,forget about all these tecno users

Look, if you don't own an android phone and u are jealous of users, do well and get one for yourself. Not everyone here uses tecno. I use LG G3 now and had used a Windows shitty phone before. Lumia 1020. Imagine that you'll dial a number about 20 times and have it listed 20 times on your call log. Dumb Windows phones. No background downloads, no support for apps... what exactly do you do with Lumia phone?

asuustrike2009:
Etisalat starter charges 40k/sec first min and 20k/sec subsequent mins. 2. You recharge N200 to give N600 bonus to call all networks but the bonus rate is 40k/sec from bonus account. 3. You are only allowed to register 5 etisalat numbers on your "You and Me". The charging rate from bonus is 40k/sec. In a nutshell, all bonus account are billed 40k/sec whether You and Me or Weekednd offer.

Are you saying that etisalat easy starter gives 200% bonus on recharges of N200 and above? for me I only get 100% on my easycliq line.

Emmanuel602:
From your post it seems you don't use etisalat. But I'm telling you from experience and they also give you 2gb data @ 2k which I bet not all networks can bit that

How can 2gb at 2k be very good when Glo offers 4.5GB at N2500? MTN also offers 4.5GB at N2500 although in this one T&C applies but in the long run it's still better than 2gb at 2k.

asuustrike2009:
Was it not on this forum some persons complained that MTN zone is static @ 40k/sec for some days. https://www.nairaland.com/2004987/mtn-zone-now-40k. Read the link and judge for yourself. MTN zone is dynamic and it charges based on network usuage and location

Did I ever say anything about MTN zone? have been talking about airtel 2good premier.

DavidGodwin:
kindly give me the download link

If you have the old Opera mini, it will prompt you to get the latest and ull just get it from there, but if not u should go to playstore,search for operamini and get the one that has 'New' written on the logo.

asuustrike2009:
No. Am sure it is network issue from them. When you call another network be it mtn,glo or etisalat, it is the same regressive billing. First min 40k/sec n 2nd min @ 12k/sec. Try and call them to resolve it

I use it every day and that's how I'm billed every day.

asuustrike2009:
My dear friend MTN true talk is rebranded family and friends plan that was abolished. The 11k/sec is restricted to 11 nos from any network in Nigeria while you are billed 20k/sec or N12/min to other nos not registered on family and friends. Supposing I want to call you and I have exhausted the number of persons registered om my list, I will 20k/sec that is if you are not on my family and friends list. Secondly all the tariff plans from other the operators have one form of condition or the other . For example MTN ipulse,supersaver,smooth talk, etisalat easy cliq,glo bounce e.t.c. The condition is first min @ 40k/sec and then follow reduced rate falling around 15k/sec flat all networks. Except glo bounce and ipulse that charge 11k/sec within the campus only. Whereas airtel 2good premier is the cheapest because after first min @ 40k/sec , you pay 12k/sec flat to other networks. Take note that once you initial calls to airtel line, your first min will be 40k/sec even though you had call for about 60sec @ 40k/sec to other networks. Dial *230# to migrate to this plan but take note that all airtel tariff plan isn't cheap for international calls.

The last part of your explanation didn't go down quite well with me. I use 2good Premier and this is how I'm billed daily. I call first mtn number at 40k/s, then subsequent mtn calls are 12k/s. If I then call etisalat number, the 1st 60 secs will be 40k/s again even tho I'm already calling mtn at 12k/s the same day. So if exhaust etisalat first 60 secs, subsequent eti calls become 12k/s. Then I initiate a Glo call the same day, the 1st 1 min will still be 40k/s Then other calls on Glo numbers bcom 12k/s. And finally I try airtel call the same day, the same cycle is repeated. Isn't that how yours is billed?

Xtracoool:
Their data compression doesn't really affect your download that much. When you request pages, it's preproccessed in their servers before being sent to your fone.

I think uc browser saves best

Uc browser mini or the main UC browser?

Oyetboy:
that opera is a very shitty browser

Which one is shitty and why?

Joel3:
I am telling you the fact.

Didn't you see data usage on both opera mini? In the old opera mini, data received was 836.6mb and after compression it became 149.9mb. Then in the new opera mini, data received was 731mb and after compression it became 148mb, so that in my opinion is not too bad.
I can also say that with the new opera mini, I downloaded few songs while I never downloaded anything with the old one. And you know downloads don't get compressed.
So I can boldly say their compression rate is the same or the new one manages better.

Joel3:
when it comes to data suppression I pick the old opera mini version for android phone


my data test analysis has proving it. although it lack media play but it run smoothly and faster for normal web browsing and reading. it worth having as standby app.

the new opera mini version is data sucker. let us know what best for you.

I don't believe that the operamini is data sucker. Check out my usage with the 2 opera mini

Airtel 2good premier. Call @ .12k/sec all network

You may want to doubt it but MTN is the best when it comes to making affordable calls. With Truetalk you can call 11 numbers at 11k/s from the very minute.
Talking about your Airtel 2good premier offering 12k/s to all networks, you didn't say that this happens after you've called at 40k/s for the 1st 60 seconds on calls to each network. I.e, call mtn for the 1st 60 secs at 40k/s and subsequent mtn calls would cost 12k/s for the rest of the day, but if u call Airtel,glo, Etisalat it will start again at 40k/s for the first 60 secs.
Hope somebody got what I said ?

Fantabulous:

The concept of power banks isn’t anything new considering the myriads of power banks in the market both branded and unbranded (Generic). But to identify the real deal most times poses a real concern for buyers. But in what seems like my own never-ending journey to find the best external battery pack, I finally stumbled upon something to pay attention to: The Lumsing 10400mAh. When I first read about the power bank on Nairaland, I was first discouraged because of the price at N7000. But because of my experience with poor power banks, I later gave in and decided to try this and believe me, this is one step I have never regretted. Yeah! I got the right quality for my penny.

Design
The packaging is certainly different to the common power bank packages, it’s a sealed brown box with what looks almost like a sketch of the battery on the front and then specs and other info listed on the back. The box has a rope or cord style handle on it which I found interesting.

www.nairaland.com/attachments/2319136_forus_jpeged65dd5d6bcdbb84a82f5fecbf6089e9

Once you get everything unpacked you’ll find the battery, USB cable, cloth carrying bag or pouch, user guide and Lumsing power user program pamphlet. There's no wall charger supplied with the Lumsing, which seems fair enough, given the price point, but it does mean that actual recharging times will vary hugely depending on your cable and charger. The Power User Program is for customers to join and possibly test new products before they come to market, a testing program essentially. You will have to go to their website and fill out the form and they’ll let you know if you’re picked. A nice idea I guess.

www.nairaland.com/attachments/2319137_foruse_jpegab6d65024884c37242d8ff76f11589d3

It is kind of shaped like a harmonica, a very nice looking harmonica for sure. The dimensions are 5.43x 2.35 x 0.86 inches and on the top you’ll find a glossy champagne finish with a brushed aluminum band across the bottom with the Lumsing logo.

Performance
The first thing I did was charge the battery with the supplied USB cable and it didn’t take long as it was already at about 75% capacity when it arrived to me. The LEDs will light up and blink to let you know it’s charging and then they’ll fill up and turn solid when charged. Since the battery was already at about 75%, only one LED was blinking for me, but if it was lower more LEDs would blink to and turn solid as the battery filled up.
To test the power bank, I charged my Huawei honor 3C having 2300mAh battery full and I still have all the four LEDs on, wow! Definitely this must charge my phone for at least 4 times or more I supposed. Believe me it has not disappointed me one bit! To use the battery you need to press the button to begin charging your devices, some batteries start charging automatically, but with the Lumsing you must press the button.
As far as charging speed, it seemed the same as if I was charging from the USB ports on my computer, so no real complaints there as I charge pretty much everything from my computer since it’s readily available. Yes you can charge two devices at the same time if you want, but it will drain the battery faster obviously, but it’s to know you can do it if need be.
Interestingly, it seems as if you can also recharge and charge at the same time, i.e. you can have the Lumsing 10400 mAh bank plugged into the wall, being topped up, while simultaneously charging two phones via two other cables. Then, when you want to head out, you grab just the Lumsing and one cable, etc.

Either she cheated, the baby was swapped or the hubby is also AS.

Swapped how? They said paternity test shows the man is actually the father.
However, the swap deal could be that the man got 2 women pregnant at the same period, they probably delivered at the same hospital and at the same time. But I'm not sure it happened like I suggested.
