Phones › Re: 9 Reasons Why You Should Buy An Android Phone Instead Of An Iphone by Elxandre(m): 9:38am On Jul 03, 2015
iamosamede55:
Nobody has given a valid point that is objective as to why an apple device is better than andriod device, other than the fact that it is expensive amd celebrity in america uses it, what kind of whack argument is that. In my opinion am iphone is just a thing of class. Andriod is very flexible[ same reason windows os is in pc's]. Moreover apple sells more in the us becos it's an ameeican thing, same like Ford in the us, doesn't mean it's better that toyota that sell more in this part of the world. in my opinion andriod and ios and both worthy competitors and there is no clear winner. They're loads of things a Samsung will do and an iphone won't even try it to it
You have to respect the fluidity of an iPhone.
Unlike an Android where stupid errors occur, even your call application could stop working for no reason and if you have no time to trouble shoot errors, it will, leave you frustrated.
Feature wise, they are as good as being the same, since a jailbreak unleashes it's full potential.
Phones › Re: LG Optimus G Pro Thread by Elxandre(m): 12:01pm On Jul 02, 2015
donhils:
Cos I don't like LG phones anymore. In as much as I have G pro, I'm not really enjoying it. They don't update their phones on time, up till now their phones are yet to have fast charge support, my g pro takes forever to charge and drains a lil too quickly for a 3140mah battery. The charging part is the most annoying part. And it's not faulty. So why would I want to associate myself with phones again when they can't deal with important things? Any phone that can't charge from say 5% to 100% in at most 90mins is a no go area for me .
Check the power rating of your charger.
Is it up to 2A?

my dear I was talking about both before but now notifications show up but I cant hear d beep
Open whatsapp and go to settings.
Set notification tones.

Does your whatsapp have the call function yet?
That's a way to know if its the latest one.

Are you talking about the beep i.e. The ringtone or it's notification not showing up in the notification tray at all?

When you understand you aren't her husband yet, common sense will set boundaries cheesy

I can't bother with a girlfriend right now, but Obama, Clinton etc were with their eventual wives from their teens.

ceaser:
The only time I bought any app was when i got my first windows phone over two yrs ago. The details are fuzzy now. The only thing i remembered doing was that i had to change my region to US in order to be able to type in my debit (GTB) card and other details like address (a US address was required and i was able to get one from my friend), zip code and other things. All these will be done on your wallet app in the phone before you purchase from the store. Alternatively, if you've not visited your wallet before, clicking "buy" on the paid app redirects you back to your wallet and will be required to enter your live password. Once logged in, it asks you if you will like to add another payment option to an existing one or create a new one.

Once your payment is made, you will instantly be able to download the app. However notification of deduction from your account may not take place until after 24hrs.

However what I've noticed in recent times with those that have "Nigeria" set as their region is the denomination of the price of paid apps in "Naira" in the store. So i assume that they hassles of finding a US address to use the store might have been addressed. I believe other people with more and recent experiences here with store purchases will be willing to help.
I have used GTB and Keystone Bank cards without hassles in the past one year, with Nigerian addresses of course.

Update your opera.
It can now save pages and restore tabs.

Unfortunately, my phone has an error, so I can't download with it.
The download never starts. And I prefer the rendering to UC Browser's.
Sad.

You're the dullard here. I wonder how NL came to be populated by your type that just spread here-say without doing their findings. What Buhari said was that all what people were saying about Abacha being corrupt remained allegations. If you don't know, nobody is a criminal until a competent court holds they are guity. Nobody, not even a judge, dare call an alleged criminal, a criminal until convicted. Buhari never said Abacha was not corrupt.
He was never convicted but billions of dollars directly linked to him has been recovered.
Buhari claims the past administration was corrupt but nobody has been convicted too!
And you have the temerity to call another a dullard?

Double standards everywhere.

people please help! my lumia 520 navigation keys(back,home and search) just stopped working suddenly...I have updated but still the same problem. ANY SOLUTION?
Did you drop the phone?
If you did, I guess the something had loosened up internally. Only a repairer can fix this, if this is the case!

After hard resetting your phone from settings (you'll lose all your apps) and it doesn't work, you may have to take it to Nokia store if you still have a valid warranty or a repairer.

Good morning family....pls eh I dnt receive whatsapp notifications except if am on d page..wat should I do...lumia 535 user..
I'm too tired to elaborate.

Go to Notifications and Actions and tick the "SHOW NOTIFICATIONS IN ACTION CENTER WHEN SCREEN IS LOCKED" option.

Scroll to WhatsApp and ensure BANNER, SOUNDS and VIBRATION is turned off.

Note that you won't receive notifications if your battery saver is on!
Also make sure you have the latest update on WhatsApp.

All work and no play made him an exceptionally brilliant dude. I don't think he has a girlfriend, that's why he was focused. However, he should prepare to face the most difficult course in life- WOMAN.

Wow! That deal makes sense.
It will be cumbersome dealing with a phone with long charging period though.
Koice, how is the battery life of your G pro?
And how long does yours take to charge? Maybe it will be faster with a more powerful charger like a 2A rated, who knows.

I have a guy who could have the past questions. Maybe he will charge you for it though.
Or if you live in Warri, you could get it from the school.

You chose FUPRE as your 1st choice again?
I admire your courage.

I could still, write FUPRE's Exam though, if they allow those who don't choose them to write.

I heard a hard reset may be the only way out for this particular error.
It is said to be a system partition error.

I certainly don't have time nor internet for their nonsense back up and restore.
I have gigs of apps on my phone, so I don't think I can bother with such wahala.

KuliMart:
Pre-sale: Not in stock.

That's to say, company/factory haven't started shipping the phone, you pay for it and wait till they start shipping and yours will be shipped to you. It also mean you pay the company when the phones are still under production with a discount for purchasing the phone before it's available for order.

Note: Pre-sale always come with a discount and after pre-sale, the price will increase.


Summary:
You pay for the phone > Wait for the company to start shipping > We get ours from factory/suppliers > We send to you > Transaction Completed.
You should have put it on the site ; when the company plans shipping the phone because, wouldn't it be vague not knowing when to expect my order.

Also, you didn't respond to my POD question.

Anywhere in Ondo State?
And I don't understand the 'pre-sale' tag on your products.
Also, no pay on delivery to Ondo?
