Satellite TV Technology / Re: Free To Air Satellite Tv General Thread by droopyd: 10:25pm On Dec 27, 2023
Compliments of the season everyone. Please is the Target TG-1010 a good decoder? I have checked online and can't find any info on it. If it isn't, can anyone please recommend a (relatively affordable 😁) decoder with a good tuner. Thanks.

Gaming / Re: Ps4 Hdmi Not Showing. by droopyd: 5:40pm On Nov 27, 2021
While it might be that the HDMI port on your PS4 is bad, you could try other things before concluding. If the resolution settings on your console is wrong, it could make your console to not output video via hdmi. Check the link below and scroll down (to part 2) to see and follow instructions on how to get your console into safe mode and change the resolution.

If that doesn't work, then you should have the console checked by someone who can repair it.

Will the collection be at study centers or we will have to travel to Abuja?


Judging from history and what I deduced from my visit to the study center, certificates will be collected at NOUN HQ in Abuja.

Well all I can say is that despite shifting dates,its not their fault due to logistics and other reasons.But I am sure that they will commence this year but we don't know the month year.But I hope it should be around may/June.
The Channel lists:
Bein sports is available even though they removed ESPN because they have not conclude a deal with Espn but more sports channels are coming soon in their channel lists. We hope that they can conclude a deal with sky and Bt sports shall.
The Official box is out but not in public and now they are currently doing livetesting of the box.So guys,Just lift your hopes high and they will surely come out this year.They are almost done with their work but they want to do final finishing and later launch to the public.I can't wait for that day.
Pipul tv-totally yours.

It's 2019 and Pipul TV have been selling this same story since 2016. like 4llerbuntu said, Una no dey tire? Even the posted picture of the box is a digital render and not a picture of the real thing.

TV/Movies / Re: Court Stops Multichoice From Increasing Dstv Subscription Rates by droopyd: 11:40am On Aug 22, 2018
bluefilm:


Even if it is 500 naira, is it more than the amount you spend daily on beer?

Or the amount some of you use to impress girls by taking them out and recharging airtime for them?

Or even the amount some of you use to smoke skunk?

Or the amount some of dey use _fuck ashawo every blessed nite?

Or even the amount some of you donate to pastors in the name of tithe?

Or even the amount some of you dash bet9ja on a daily basis?

See, my guy, lemme tell you the truth, money is actually nothing.

The value you ascribe to money is exactly the value you get.

It's all in the mind.

If you can go inside your mind and convince yourself that the 500 naira increment that dstv added to compact bouquet is actually nothing based on say you pass am wella, I tell you, you will automatically stop 'feeling the pain'.

But if you like, you can continue to groan and complain.

At the end of the day, na you go still dey feel the pain.

So like I said earlier, it's all in the mind.

You still don't get the point, it's not your money so I and anybody else has the right to complain about the increment. I can afford the increment but did not bother complaining and decided to dump DSTV.

The increment is small to you so pay and keep that to yourself, don't berate others that don't consider it small. You can convey your opinion without making it seem like others are complaining for no reason (afterall, all fingers are not equal)

If u take it to tecno and dey flash it for u my dear nothing is coning back unless , ur PC has d virus or sd card , as wen u want to copy file , or a particular site , original stockroom from tecno doest come with malware . if not everyone using d same phone will pile up at tecno office

Been there, done that, still came back. I'm telling you, that phone's stock Rom is infected and it's only a matter of time before the malware manifests. I've seen others complain too.

The truth is one:
its a chines phone and u don't want to tell us the name of the phone and it's bad for us .
Another truth is you did not flash the phone u just reset the phone .
Flashing is 100% d solution u are not the first person to encounter such problem. Better still flash it with another computer .

But like I said flashing d phone is 100% it solution for it ,
Rooting and uninstalling it is another 100% solution .
But the best is to flash it and make sure u don't restore ur apps from PC /same PC / or memory card again . just download fresh apps from play store .
Good luck

Oga Sir, depending on the phone, I can categorically tell you that Flashing doesn't do much. Tecno W2 in particular has this problem and it seems the stock ROM comes with a particular malware which lays dormant until it strikes (I have no idea what triggers it). All the stock ROMs I've tried all have the malware, so even after flashing, it's only a matter of time before you're back at the same point you started.

So if I pay for compact amount of 6300 for 4 months b4 1st of august 2018 what will happen?

After 4 months, you'll start paying the new price. The most you can do is pay for 12 months at the current rate (if you sub before 1st August).
TV/Movies / Re: Multichoice Adjusts Prices On DSTV And GOTV by droopyd: 7:36pm On Jul 09, 2018
They've already adjusted that of compact, just received their SMS. So why the hell did they adjust it this time? The last time they blamed rising exchange rate for the hike, dollar rate went down and has been stable for a while, they did not reduce the price. Instead we are hit with price hike......see wetin lack of quality competition they cause!

TV/Movies / Re: DSTV And Quickteller Issue by droopyd: 5:17pm On Jun 24, 2018
bedane:
I need assistance on how fast to resolve this issue as its costing me the world cup matches.
I made payment for auto-renewal of my subscription on the 17th. I eventually got to know that quickteller debited me and did not credit DSTV when my subscription was terminated in the 19th. I have called and written to DSTV but the customer representative wants me to contact QuickTeller.

The problem is I don't have an account with quickteller and cannot lodge a complaint over the phone as I don't fall into any category of their customer. I only used them because I saw them as a payment option on eazy.dstv.com and have used them several times in the past.

Please who has has similar issue and how was it resolved.

cc: Prof800 Ujsizzle

Try tweeting Quickteller or DSTV, I notice they respond fast to complaints made via that platform (probably cos they don't want bad publicity)
TV/Movies / Re: Gotv Or Tstv by droopyd: 6:55pm On May 15, 2018
Babaflenjor:
I av Gotv which I av been using for over five years now. but recently i'm not satisfied with their services, so since November last year I av not subscribe to my gotv just because I was waiting for TStv to roll out their decoder. Now TStv decoder are out but what I saw on their channels list is not encouraging. So pls for those that av used both which one should I go for I'm a football fan and I so much like good movies as well as news channels. should I go for the new TStv or continue with my gotv.

OP, you've already answered your question by saying you are not encouraged by TSTV Channels list. You also said you've used Gotv for 5 years which (correct me if I'm wrong) means you've been ok with their channel offerings for those years. So in essence, the choice is yours.........However, you know that saying- "The Devil you know......."

Webmasters / Re: Help, My Tecno Android Phone Keeps Downloading Apps By Itself by droopyd: 9:59pm On Dec 09, 2017
After seeing similar complains from Tecno W2 owners, I've deduced that the phone ships with the malware. I have flash several Stock ROMS from different sources and the same thing happens. The malware shows up as Chromes, Mail, Settings or Facebook in app manager and no matter how many times you uninstall them (or Flash the phone), they keep coming back. Antivirus software don't do much about them either.

Like someone already pointed out, why did an 8 yr old have access to a gun? GTA V has sold over 75 million copies worldwide, if the game inspires such crimes, shouldn't we have a lot more similar cases on our hands!

It pisses me off when people rant about violence in video games/movies/tv when they don't take note of the ratings already explaining the nature of content before going ahead to watch or purchase for their kids. Being a gamer, I've had to advise several parents about which kind of games to get for their kids (it's amazing how they just buy anything as long as its a video game)
Phones / Re: How I Solved "Screen Overlay Detected" On My Android Device by droopyd: 12:49am On Jul 23, 2017
Encountered the problem several times with Tecno phones (seen it on 3 different Tecno W2's), I'm yet to see it on any other Android phone. Also, the solutions outlined did not work. However I discovered the culprit to be Babel fonts (seems to start causing the problem after the app updates). Here's the solution which has worked for me on tecno phones with the problem:

*Go to settings/apps
*Scroll to and select Babel fonts
*Select "Force Stop"
*Select Disable (you'll be prompted to uninstall all updates/return to factory default, select yes)
*Say bye bye to Screen overlay error message!

I have the following problems with a tecno C7:

*Wi-Fi hot-spot turns itself off after a few seconds
*USB tethering also refuses to work sometimes
*Even Bluetooth refuses to turn on most times

The phone is about a month old and has likely had these problems all along, though I only noticed when I needed to use data on my PC. Anyone else experience similar problems and know how to solve them?

Just got myself an xbox 360 console and it has been jailbroken with freestyle dashboard installed. I've only 3 game titles installed on the 40gb hard drive and the thing done full up, I wish to expand the storage with an external HD but I'm finding it difficult to get my xbox to detect it, I've formatted it to fat32 still nothing. Pls guys m lost here and totally new in the xbox community, I need to ve my console running games right from the exHD in no time.

What's the size of the external hdd & what tool did you use to format the drive, also is it the hdd that's not being detected or is it the games you put on the external?
