Back up your apps and restore factory settings (using power and volume up button from power off). I had a similar problem connecting my 8 ball pool to Google play games. Like I always advice self, when ever you buy a phone, no matter how neat u feel it is, you should restore factory settings to remove some little errors, so you don't have to do it later. In case of any WhatsApp group please add me. 07037829708 thanks

EducationRe: How To Recover Or Bounce Back After A Bad First Year In School by Donreiy: 10:01am On Nov 11, 2015
My name is Fred (not real name) and I graduated from the university of Benin. I studied an Engineering course. Let me start by saying I was never a dull student. I started my tertiary education by attending one of the best polytechnics in the southwest where I graduated as one of the best students with little or no effort. I remember vividly how I once started reading for an exam I had by 9 a.m on that same day. I still had a very good grade. Fast forward two years, I finished my OND and gained admission that same year to further my course at the University of Benin. While several polytechnic students claim their experience at the polytechnic helped them succeed when they got to the university, in my own case, the reverse was the case. My experience and life style in the polytechnic turned out to be my achilles heel at the university. By the time I got to the university, all I had in my head was, well, if I can make such a good result in the polytechnic with so little effort, why stress myself in uni? I smiled when I saw people take books to night class to read. I slept on my bed when most of my room mates were in class reading. Whenever I'm not sleeping on my bed, I'm making night calls- ooh, I didn't remember to tell you I had a girlfriend then . It got to a point, I stopped going to class altogether to the extent that my room mates were beginning to doubt if I was even a student. When I'm not in the common room watching African Magic, I'm in my room arguing or gisting. Luckily for me, tests are hardly done in the faculty of engineering, Uniben. The exam of 100 marks is all there is for most courses. Few weeks to exam, like I always did while at the polytechnic, I started running helter skelter gathering class notes, photocopying them and buying some textbooks. I wrote the exams and though they weren't so good, I was still hoping I'll have a good GPA. The result was released and I was handed my first shock . I had a GPA of 3.48 which of course was a 2.2. I can vividly remember what my lecturer/HOD told us in class when we got to 500L What actually happened was that, our 500L first semester result had just been released and the over all performance was quite poor. The man came to class and started giving us some sort of fatherly advice. He reminded us what awaits us in the labour market and why we need to strive to graduate with a 2.1 at the least. He said and I quote " My only problem with you people is, that moment when you're being advised, you all look very serious and remorseful. The moment I leave this class, you've forgotten everything I told you. It's the same with pastors who preach, that moment while they preach, the whole congregation listens with rapt attention whilst feeling remorseful. Wait till the sermon finishes, everyone has forgotten all the pastor said and life goes on again" Those words of my HOD were exactly what happened to me when I got to 300L. Despite the dejection and disappointment I felt when my 200L result was released, the moment I got to 300L, I had forgotten about it. I never forgot to remind myself several others who read more than I did also failed. I conveniently ignored the many others who passed excellently. If you think I wasn't serious with my academics in 200L, just sit back and relax while I take you through my 300L. Let me start by telling you I started dating another girl, chioma(not real name). Chioma came from an above average family and she's the very emotional type. Anyone who has ever dated someone whose emotion runs high at the slightest opportunity will understand what I went through better. Well, anytime Chioma calls, the least amount of time she spends on the phone is between 6 and 10 minutes. This was when call rates were still on the high side. Being a "big boy" I wouldn't want to "fall my hand" when I return her calls. I also spent minutes on phone gisting and laughing when my mates are in class receiving lectures. My monthly allowance was between 6 and 7 thousand naira. I spend it all buying recharge cards within a week or two. Then I start borrowing money from friends. Atimes, Chioma was generous enough to send me airtime By the time I collect my allowance for the next month, I pay my debts and in a week, it's finished again. Unlike when in 200L, by the time exam approached, I had no money to photocopy materials or buy textbooks. To even get money to borrow became difficult as I had become a serial debtor. Before I bore you with details of how I managed to read for my exams. Let me tell you how I prepared for my thermodynamics exam. It perfectly encapsulates how I wrote most of my exams. A day to the exam, I had to plead with a friend who had finished reading the text book and was only revising to please let me use his text book. He agreed with the only condition that I'll return it at night as he'll have to use it over the night. Immediately he gave me, I headed straight to the reading room in the hostel to start my reading. That was around 11 a.m. I tried to read as fast as I could but of course, I was unable to finish it all. I had to follow him to night class so I'll still be able to use the book. The following day, like every other classmate, I sat for the exam amidst lots of carry over students. That was how I prepared for most of my exams. To cut the long story short, 300L result was released and I was handed my second shock. My GPA was 3.38 and I had two F's . Both were practicals. ELA 301, ELA 302. It was now very obvious to me I'm graduating with a 2.2 except I take urgent and drastic measures. As for my thermodynamics course, I'm sure you'll like to know what I eventually had. Well, lucky me, it was a B After the results were released,(I was in 400L) I met a friend, named Stephen (real name this time) who attended the same polytechnic I attended though he finished long before me. He was telling me about his lovely result. He didn't make a first class but he was close. We got talking about our polytechnic days only for me to discover the result with which I graduated in poly was far better than that of Stephen. I was worried. How could the same person whose result was no where compared to mine (in poly) be having a GPA of 4.3 and I'll be struggling to even make a 3.5 Coupled with the fear of graduating with a 2.2, I felt so bad and I vowed to take my academics serious. But then, I didn't find it easy. To start waking up every morning to go to class, lining up at the photocopying centre to get a material a lecturer just dropped appeared so strange to me. I did all assignments and read so hard for my exams, when the result was released, though it was better than my previous two sessions, I was devastated. My GPA was 3.76. What else do I have to do to have a good result in this school? How do these electrical engineering guys who blast first class results do it? I eventually met with one of them, Nonso (real name). That was how I discovered the secret that helped me in my final year. I'll be posting what transpired between me and Nonso I can never forget the first question I asked Nonso, "Guy, how una tey dey do am?" "Na the same thing we dey read na" Nonso replied, "Bros na God o". I wasn't satisfied with the response so I probed harder. Nonso told me about a particular course whereby he answered just four questions out of 5. He had an A. I answered all the five questions correctly and I had a B. That was my first lesson. It is not just enough to read, it's more important to read the right things and it's not just enough to answer all questions in the exam hall, it's more important to answer the ones you do perfectly well Secondly, I noticed Nonso had no girlfriend. That was my second lesson. Whether you'll like to hear this or not, to come out in flying colours in school, you need to forget about girls and vice-versa Thirdly, I discovered Nonso read a whole lot. I felt I read in my 400L only for Nonso to tell me how hard he read. That was my third lesson There's no short cut to success. That dude who always has the best result in class does no magic. He simply reads and spends lots of hours burning midnight candles [ Armed with those three lessons, I was on a mission to ensure I graduate with a 2.1 only for me to bump into a discussion where some guys were talking about scholarships for masters. According to them, It's much more easier getting those scholarship when one graduates with a CGPA of 4.0 and above. I went home and like fans of the super eagles, I started punching my calculator. I wanted to see if it was mathematically possible for me to still make a 4.0. After my calculations, I discovered I needed a 4.67 in my final year to make it. At first, it looked quite impossible. Afterall, I had only managed to make a 2.1 once which was even low. How on earth do I intend having a GPA of 4.67? I vowed to try everything within my might to make it against all odds. At the end of every lecture day, before I eat, I made sure I went through everything taught in class. Before going to class the following day, I made sure I went through everything taught in the previous class for all courses I had that day. During weekends, I ensured I read everything that was taught during the week. For every course I did, I downloaded extra materials through Google which I was able to read with the aid of my laptop. Anytime I have issues with some courses, I ran to Nonso for assistance. I continued like that till exams were about starting. I never knew how awesome and joyful it was to read long before exams. Days before my exam, I had finished all my courses and was just revising. On the day of my first paper (PRE571), Unlike previous levels whereby I always come late to exam halls because I hardly finish reading, I was among the first set of people to reach the hall this time beaming with confidence. Unfortunately, the exam didn't come without its own issues. The first question which was compulsory had to do with manufacturing account which I didn't read as the lecturer didn't teach it. It was 20 marks. That means, to have an A, I have to answer the remaining four questions very well. In other words, I have to score at least, 70/80. I remembered how Nonso answered just four questions and made an A and I smiled. I ensured I answered the four questions perfectly well. Well, to cut the long story short, first semester result was released, and I had 4A's(including PRE571 ) and 2 B's. I calculated my GPA and guess what, it was exactly 4.67 I now have to face second semester. I forgot to tell you the result was the best in my department. Three of us actually had the same result. I and two other ladies. All of a sudden, people started coming to me for assistance anytime they had issues in certain courses. Haha, me of all people. The joy cannot be expressed with words. That alone motivated me to read harder. Like a robot, I simply repeated the same things I did in first semester. Days to each of my exam, I never read as I always had someone who will come to me for group revision. Whilst revising with them, I used the opportunity to revise myself. Exams came and results were released. I had 5 A's and one C giving me a CGPA of 4.67 once more. As a matter of fact, I could easily have had all A's. Few days to writing the exam in which I had a C, my hostel in ekosodin was raided by armed robbers. I didn't get over the trauma on time and it affected my performance. That was how I achieved the seemingly impossible feat. The joy I felt in my heart knows no bounds the day I saw that result. I have then made this my watch word, wherever there's a will, there's always a way. My advice to students who are still in school is this, don't let anyone deceive you. No one is better than you are. Whoever does better than you in exams is simply doing something you're not doing. It's your duty to find out. Secondly, do not underestimate the importance of attending lectures. That was one of my greatest mistakes. Lectures, no matter how boring it may seem are always important. If not for any other thing, it guides you when reading. Thirdly, never ever give up. As long as it's still mathematically possible for you to make a particular grade, strive to attain it. I hope this will put an end to those threads whose tittle reads, 'I have a GPA of..., can I still make a 2.1/first class?" Yes, you can as long as it's mathematically possible.
