you think those earpiece won't last? Have you ever used a Samsung earphone b4? Despite the tangling and pulling it still works perfectly for more than a year. Now compare with an earphone that actually costs more than a Samsung phone
Some these earphones have a lifetime warranty, they must be very durable

Is your phone rooted? If yes, you must check the apps you installed that require root permission.

Also you can use your phone without a memory card to see if the problem was caused by the memory card.

I had that problem a while back, had to do a factory reset then I flashed it with the latest firmware. Its been good since then.

Nairaland GeneralWhen Animals Fall From The Sky With Rain (phenomenon) by donlyone(op): 12:48pm On Jan 10, 2015
Raining animals is a rare meteorological phenomenon in which flightless animals "rain" from the sky. Such occurrences have been reported in many countries throughout history.
 
Rain of flightless animals and objects has been reported throughout history. In the first century AD, Roman naturalist Pliny The Elder documented storms of frogs and fishes. In 1794, French soldiers witnessed fall of toads from the sky during heavy rain at Lalain, near the French city of Lille. In 1857, people from Lake County in California reported fall of sugar crystals from the sky. In March 2010, spangled perch fell out of the sky over a remote desert town in the Australian outback.
 
The following list is a selection of examples rain of fish:

Singapore, February 22, 1861[15]
Olneyville, Rhode Island, May 15, 1900[16]
Moose Jaw, Saskatchewan, July 1, 1903[17]
Marksville, Louisiana, October 23, 1947[18]
Kerala, India, February 12, 2008[19]
Bhanwad, Jamnagar, India, Oct 24, 2009[20]
Lajamanu, Northern Territory, Australia, February 25 and 26, 2010,[21]
Loreto, Agusan del Sur, Philippines, January 13, 2012[22][23]
IIT Madras, Chennai, Tamil Nadu, Sep 12, 2013[24]
The yearly Lluvia de Peces in Yoro, Honduras
Frogs and toads
Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan, June 2009 (occurrences reported throughout the month)[25]
Rákóczifalva, Hungary, 18–20 June 2010 (twice)[26]

Others

Jellyfish fell from the sky in Bath, England, in 1894[27]
Spiders fell from the sky in Salta Province, Argentina on April 6, 2007.[28]
Worms dropped from the sky in Jennings, Louisiana, on July 11, 2007.[29]
According to a video, spiders fell from the sky in Santo Antônio da Platina, Brazil, on February 3, 2013.[30] (However, it has been suggested as falling from a mass web between elevated poles.)
 
This phenomenon also happened in an Australian desert town in 2010.
Residents of a small outback Australian town have been left speechless after fish began falling from the sky.
Hundreds of spangled perch bombarded the 650 residents of Lajamanu, shocking local Christine Balmer, who was walking home when the strange 'weather' started.
She said: 'These fish fell in their hundreds and hundreds all over the place. The locals were running around everywhere picking them up.
Below is photo of a bowl containing fish picked up by a resident of the town.

How would you explain this phenomenon?

Excuse me mr producer, can this earpiece change Terryg/Timaya/jaywon's voice to that of john ledgend?

Unless they used a high grade titanium alloy to coat the wires of the earpiece.... Then I'll know it's well worth the money.... Why buy an earpiece for N300,000 that will still break as easily as a N200 earpiece ?

Some people (Audiophiles that is) want nothing but the best when it comes to the quality of sound produced by musical equipments and they are willing to pay for it. If you are an audiophile, here is a list of earphones designed for you.
In no particular order:

Ultimate Ears UE900s ($400)

When it comes to getting the sound you paid for with in-ear headphones, achieving a perfect ear tip seal is absolutely crucial. The seal also more effectively blocks external noise, so to that end Ultimate Ears includes the biggest selection of tip types and sizes than any other in-ear we know. The UE900s sound is also beautifully balanced and highly transparent.

Aurisonics Rockets ($249)

This is easily the most transparent sounding in-ear headphone I've heard for this kind of money. It's also super-comfortable, solidly built and comes with possibly the longest headphone warranty extant, it runs a full 5 years (review to come).

Sennheiser IE 800 ($800)

These tiny, universal fit in-ears are super-comfy, and the bass-midrange-treble balance is perfect, says the Audiophiliac. This is one of the very best sounding universal-fit in-ears, on par with much more expensive custom molded in-ear designs. There's only one downside, the IE 800 doesn't block external noise as well as the customs.

1964 Ears V6 Stage ($699)

The custom-molded 1964 Ears V6-Stage is a "three-way" design with six balanced armature drivers (dual bass, dual midrange, and dual treble). Each pair of 1964 Ears V6 Stages are made to order, so custom colors, finishes, and artwork can be used to personalize your headphones. This headphone digs deep into the more subtle elements of a recording, so I heard stuff like the singers' breaths and the instruments' textures.

NuForce Primo 8 ($499)

The NuForce Primo 8 is a true audiophile headphone, and while it's expensive, you'd have to spend a lot more to get something better.

Westone ES60 ($1,300)

The Westone ES60 custom molded in-ear is the "quietest" headphone we've heard. Superior noise-blocking makes a huge difference when you're in a plane, bus, train, office, park, or any noisy environment. Unlike noise-canceling headphones that use battery-powered electronics, the ES60 hushes noise by creating a tight seal in your ear canal.

The treble detailing is incredible, so percussion instruments really come alive. Bass is flat-out amazing; when a drummer really hammers his kick drum you feel it. The bass' taut definition, texture, and shading is ahead of the pack. The Westone ES60 is the best sounding in-ear headphone on the planet.

Each ES60 is hand-built in Colorado Springs, Colo.

Would you like to have one of these?

Imagine if this man asked his followers to commit crimes or stage violent attacks against government or citizens.

IMAGINE a group with the ideology that THERE IS NO DEVIL and NO SIN.

For them, nothing they do is morally wrong. ALL THINGS ARE PERMISSIBLE.

Christianity EtcBeware The Jesus Anti-christ Of Miami by donlyone(op): 5:54pm On Dec 09, 2014
Pastor with 666 tattoo claims to be divine.

Story highlights:
• Jose Luis de Jesus Miranda, a minister, says he is God
• De Jesus preaches that there is no devil and no sin
• His church claims thousands of members in more than 30 countries

MIAMI, Florida (CNN) -- The minister has the number 666 tattooed on his arm.

But Jose Luis de Jesus Miranda is not your typical minister. De Jesus, or "Daddy" as his thousands of followers call him, does not merely pray to God: He says he is God.

"The spirit that is in me is the same spirit that was in Jesus of Nazareth," de Jesus says.

De Jesus' claims of divinity have angered Christian leaders, who say he is a fake. Religious experts say he may be something much more dangerous, a cult leader who really believes he is God. (Watch followers get 666 tattoos for their leader )

"He's in their heads, he's inside the heads of those people," says Prof. Daniel Alvarez, a religion expert at Florida International University who has debated some of de Jesus' followers.

"De Jesus speaks with a kind of conviction that makes me consider him more like David Koresh or Jim Jones."

Is de Jesus really a cult leader like David Koresh, who died with more than 70 of his Branch Davidian followers in a fiery end to a standoff with federal authorities, or Jim Jones, the founder of the Peoples Temple who committed mass suicide with 900 followers in 1978?

Prophets 'spoke to me'

De Jesus and his believers say their church -- "Creciendo en Gracia," Spanish for "Growing in grace" -- is misunderstood. Followers of the movement say they have proof that their minister is divine and that their church will one day soon be a major faith in the world.

But even de Jesus concedes that he is an unlikely leader of a church that claims thousands of members in more than 30 countries.

De Jesus, 61, grew up poor in Puerto Rico. He says he served stints in prison there for petty theft and says he was a heroin addict.

De Jesus says he learned he was Jesus reincarnate when he was visited in a dream by angels.

"The prophets, they spoke about me. It took me time to learn that, but I am what they were expecting, what they have been expecting for 2,000 years," de Jesus says.

The church that he began building 20 years ago in Miami resembles no other:

Followers have protested Christian churches in Miami and Latin America, disrupting services and smashing crosses and statues of Jesus.
De Jesus preaches there is no devil and no sin. His followers, he says, literally can do no wrong in God's eyes.
The church calls itself the "Government of God on Earth" and uses a seal similar to the United States.
Doing God's work with a Lexus and Rolex

If Creciendo en Gracia is an atypical religious group, de Jesus also does not fit the mold of the average church leader. De Jesus flouts traditional vows of poverty.

He says he has a church-paid salary of $136,000 but lives more lavishly than that. During an interview, he showed off a diamond-encrusted Rolex to a CNN crew and said he has three just like them. He travels in armored Lexuses and BMWs, he says, for his safety. All are gifts from his devoted followers.

And what about the tattoo of 666 on his arm?

Although it's a number usually associated with Satan, not the son of God, de Jesus says that 666 and the Antichrist are, like him, misunderstood.

The Antichrist is not the devil, de Jesus tells his congregation; he's the being who replaces Jesus on Earth.

"Antichrist is the best person in the world," he says. "Antichrist means don't put your eyes on Jesus because Jesus of Nazareth wasn't a Christian. Antichrist means do not put your eyes on Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Put it on Jesus after the cross."

And de Jesus says that means him.

So far, de Jesus says that his flock hasn't been scared off by his claims of being the Antichrist. In a show of the sway he holds over the group, 30 members of his congregation Tuesday went to a tattoo parlor to have 666 also permanently etched onto their skin.

He may wield influence over them, but his followers say don't expect them to go the way of people who believed in David Koresh and Jim Jones. Just by finding de Jesus, they say, they have achieved their purpose.

"If somebody tells us drink some Kool-Aid and we'll go to heaven, that's not true. We are already in heavenly places," follower Martita Roca told CNN after having 666 tattooed onto her ankle.

I'll support phones made in Nigeria. Or even assembled in Nigeria. Not phones wholly made in China with a Nigerian name slapped on it.

let's not even dwell on the sheer idiocy of anyone buying an Android 4.2 phone right now.
You took the words out of my mouth.

This is a SAMSUNG CLONE and not a Nigerian phone. For some time now, some people have been creating topics on Nairaland to sell CLONES. This is a new strategy to sell the clones.

What happened to using Android stock icons.

Using Samsung app icons is a dead giveaway.

You are so right. The said upgrade is fake, they'll probably redirect you to download an app you don't need.
