Okay, now I'm a bit angry.

Repulse is a HD game on android with graphics that surpass Wipeout on PS2.you can compare it with need for speed on android, graphic wise. Tried it on my S2 and was getting a white screen. Game was also hanging. Tried it on a tecno N3 and it was playing smoothly with no lag. See how chinco is insulting my S2

i meant while one SIM(say SIM 1) is on WCDMA mode,

abrahym: Help. My galaxy s2 is always showing always showing data usage warning.

What exactly do you mean?

jickson: how can I run java on ics?

Google jbed

Curiosity. If I crash the phone I can always do a restore. What does the "don't panic" folder do?
By the way, you can send him the file using send it pro.

Could anyone explain to me why there is a keylogger folder in the system folder of every android phone and why it's always empty but when you copy the folder out and open it on a system you see a text file in it?

No body has answered me about the battery, how long can it last while playing games?

For those that use this phone how long does the battery last on heavy gaming ?

Mueeze: Abeg now.... Guyz, what next am i supposed to do.

Guy, go to xbmchub. Com and read through the articles at the bottom right of the website. Not a sports fan but will look into it for you

in these days of cheap internet access and the capability of creating very easy hotspots with your phone, why don't you bring out the devil in you?
two apps that i would recommend but will not explain what they do are
Facenip
Firesheep

The federal ministry of health warns that to be evil is dangerous to anyone that uses free wifi

raynold: ok enough wit xbmc for abit..you'll should try out tunein radio one of the best internet radio out der, listen to some Nigerian stations, premier league radio, and great music stations like blaze FM...

i have given this hint before but let me give it again. if you install tunein radio pro you can record any radio station of your choice. however,you can only play back your recording in tunein radio. if you search inside the folder tunein radio creates in your memory card you will come across come files with letters and numbers, can't remember the particular folder. if you rename those files and add .mp3 at the end you now have the music or comedy you recorded and can transfer them out of the folder to your music folder

another app like that is umano, a beautiful app. you can save and download your playlist of blogs that are read to you but you can't find them. if you have a root explorer go to /data/data. search for the umano folder usually com.umano...... check inside the folder and copy out your recordings

4llerbuntu: THIS NEW FOUND XBMC love is amusing.

xbmc is old gist na, have u people been living under a rock? been using that thing since 2008 thereabouts
The project started in 2003!!!

when we tell u pple to use better OS, na windows una go dey use.

only God knows how many things are not news on unix that will one day become news when you pple find out about it

you no well oh

first met xbmc in 2005/2006 after chipping the original xbox. with it i could play gameboy, NES,SNES, SEGA GENESIS AND PLAYSTATION 1 on the old xbox. could store films,music,etc. turned it into a computer and media center. never tried to use it online then. when i saw it on android said i should just try it for old time sake. its when i saw the full capabilities that it blew my mind.
apart from the media capabilities,i came across some scripts that can run some functions of backtrack on it. even aircrack. its amazing

BTW, that jdownloader is not working. says script failed to connect to server

tomii: wot type of fone ar u using, cos d site states its 4 vodafones only

story oh!!!!!

Guys this xbmc is the bomb. I can watch abc, cbs and hulu programs without that annoying "you are using an IP from outside the USA". Dstv can suck it.

By the way, you can install xbmc on your system and watch to your hearts content. Installed it in a girls system and she's high on all the seasons of desperate housewife and gossip girl

Make sure you go to xbmchub. Com to understand how to use it

cyrielo: guy i unrar the file on a computer but what i saw where so many folders... the instruction on the site i downloaded the file is below.......
1. Download the file.
2. If necessary, extract the game archive (eg, by ES Zip Viewer)
3. Run the installation file of the game (*.apk)
4. Wait for the installation is complete.

how do i run installation on a folder with so many folders inside

OKAY,lets solve this

in the rar file is a file that ends with .apk. copy that into the phone and use an explorer to install it. now put your phone in airplane mode and run the app. it will ask that it want to download some files. say yes and it will tell you no internet access. close the app.now, using the explorer go to the internal memory of the phone and look for a folder named "Android". now enter the folder "data" and look for a folder with the name "com.rockstar.gta3". navigate to files>GTA3. copy all those folders into that folder . now run the game again

Decided to call the other guy and asked him to add another unit. Problem is still looking looking for someone to bring it back and the other one might not have a key board

I have two friends who bought galaxy note two but with 4g carrier capabilities. I told them to buy a low cost android phone to create hotspots to browse with. They bought tecno N3. For a low cost android phone dual sim i was quite impressed

okay here's what i did.

i searched Aliexpres and amazon for the types and options available. after after choosing i looked at customer reviews of the various sellers. next i looked at the cost and checked for peripheral units. i looked at a lot of YouTube videos and compared them. then i looked and asked if i could buy both the unit and the keyboard together. i finally settled on amazon. total cost was $90. i then looked at shipping and found out that free shipping occurred close to the xmas. i then checked all my friends that will come back during the xmas and requested their assistance. i then ordered two separate units and sent them to two of my friends who promised the would come back. the reason for two was that i really wanted it and didn't want f'up. in the end it paid off ; the other guy cancelled his trip. i picked up the unit in January and still waiting for the other unit. however i have gotten the keyboard of the other unit

it has no slot for sim card however you can connect a modem to it. haven't tried to install droidvpn on it but will try it out. it doesn't get hot and wifi reception is very good. and please get the keyboard or the remote control

cyrielo: some 1 pls reply me naw my 600 mb go just waste like dat

Unzip or unrar the bloody file and tell us what is inside it.

honsule: I NEED A SOFTWARE THAT WILL MAKE MY SCREEN(SGS3) SHOW ON MY LAPTOP.i HAVE TRIED "AIR DISPLAY" And one other App,all to no avail.Didn't work properly

I have tried some apps that worked. Try nscreen. There's a much better app but can't remember the name. Will get it later

4llerbuntu: so how can I get to buy one of these android sticks here in Nigeria?

I just found some interesting projects to experiment

i knew that when you found out you can run ubuntu and other types of linux on it you would be interested. i also came across an android backtract and ubuntu installer for it. came across a website of a company in abuja that imports it. starts with pilo-something. i remember i called them in December and they said they were out of stock then. i got the website from nairaland. but the price was high

abrahym: ..
I can access different section with app.even quote,upload pics,

No, you don't understand. You can do all that with that one. Tell you what, download the xda forum app and compare then you well understand what I'm talking about

joanana: @ 4llerbuntu ... plz how can i increase the ram of my galaxy s3. whenever i open xmbc n m watching a video. it usually restart on its own. whats wrong with my baby! plz help!!!

Note that there are two xbmc types available. The beta build and the stable build. Was using the beta and it crashes but not much. The stable build hadn't crashed at all. Its much faster and smoother

By the way, I remember someone posted that app in this section a long time ago. I remember I downloaded that app, tried it and deleted it last year

ciphoenix:

navi-x can be gotten from google code

follow leopantro's guide

No wonder you downloaded 98 gig worth of data in a month. With all those films and series, do you remember to watch the series "NTA NEWS"?

That app is crap. Is not even an app, its a website interface. Even I that have zero app making skills created such on an app late last year. That app was even better because I designed it that new front page topics come in as twits,if you click on them it opens the full page of the topic. I lost interest when I couldn't browse through the various sections and the topics opens in external browsers. Can't recall the site. I think a competition should be setup for people to create a solid app for Nairaland. About time Nairaland had an app

dugo2012: This Sony Xperia V - a water resistant Android smartphone - is da bomb. Am gonna get this dope. Just checked the price at http://www.priceleaker.com. I am heading to Computer Village right away...

you must have a tv with wifi access or allshare for that to work

joanana: How do i install Navix on my samsung galaxy s 3. i ve installed xbmc. plz, what do i do next. I m A movie freak specially tv series. plzzzz help me

in Google, type navi-x download. click on the very first link and download the very first zip file on the list. in xbmc goto settings,add-on, click on install from zip and navigate to where you downloaded the zip file and click on it. it wi be installed and enabled.now go back to programs and click on the navi icon. remember to set your internet transfer rate to 512kps in settings,system,internet.

10 Ways Samsung's Galaxy
S4 Is Better Than The
iPhone 5

by Kevin Smith Mar. 24,
2013, 9:23 AM |

Samsung
announced
its latest
flagship
phone, the
Galaxy S 4 earlier this month
in New York.
Critics have been going wild
because the Galaxy S 4 is
real competition to Apple's
iPhone 5 .

The Galaxy S 4 is packed
with the latest hardware and
software features like a 13
megapixel camera, eye
tracking technology, and
even a way to use the phone
without touching the screen.
While the iPhone 5 is still an
impressive smartphone, it
doesn't hold a candle to the
Galaxy S 4.
The Galaxy S 4 is
faster than the
iPhone 5.

Samsung's Galaxy S 4
has a quad-core
processor compared
the the iPhone 5's
dual core processor.
Primate Labs ran a
benchmark test pitting
the Galaxy S 4 against
other top tier
smartphones including
the iPhone 5.
The results show that
the Galaxy S 4 is
almost two times
faster than the iPhone
5.

The Galaxy S 4's
screen is bigger.

The Galaxy S 4's
screen measures a
whopping 5-inches.
That's a full inch more
screen real estate than
the Phone 5. A bigger
screen means more
apps on one page,
more space for videos,
and higher quality.

The Galaxy S 4 has
better camera
software.

Software aside, the
Galaxy S 4 packs a
whopping 13
megapixel camera,
compared to the
iPhone 5's eight
megapixel camera.
The Galaxy S 4's
camera has a bunch of
software features that
will make any amateur
look like a
professional. It's easier
to take pictures and
edit them on the go.
Pictures stand out with
features like, photo
blur, which allows you
to erase people or
things from a photo
and Share Shot, which
lets you sync your
friends' Galaxy S
phones together to
share photos.
There are many more
camera features that
you can read about
here.

The Galaxy S 4 is
more versatile.

The Galaxy S 4 has the
latest version of
Android, which by
nature is a more
customizable operating
system than Apple's
iOS.
But besides making
phone calls and
downloading apps, the
Galaxy S 4 can be
used as a remote for
your compatible
Samsung TV.
Forbes Haydn
Shaughnessy of Forbes
points out, "on the S4
microsite Samsung
says the phone
'suggests different
programs based on
your preferences,
provides program
schedules, and does
the channel surfing for
you. The Samsung
GALAXY S4 even
allows you to remotely
control the TV or setup
boxes.'"

The Galaxy S 4 is
available on all
major carriers
including T-Mobile.

The iPhone has yet to
make its debut on T-
Mobile, leaving some
customers out in the
dark.
The Galaxy S 4 has a
sharper screen.
The iPhone 5's Retina
Display pushes out an
astounding 1136x640-
pixel resolution at 326
pixels per inch.
But, Samsung used an
HD Super AMOLED
screen and beefed up
the resolution on the
Galaxy S 4 to a
impressive 1920x1080
at 441 pixels per inch.

Google Now is light-
years better than
Siri.

This is an Android
feature but is still
counts as a reason the
Galaxy S 4 is better
that the iPhone 5.
Google Now is a
personal assistant that
comes included with
Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.
It uses all the
information available
in your smartphone to
provide you with
relevant information.
For example, your
phone knows the
route you take home
and if there is traffic it
will prompt you to go
a faster way.
If you're about to take
a flight, Google Now
prompts you to check
in and even gives you
weather in the
destination city.
Siri just can't compete.

The Galaxy S 4 has
more memory
contributing to the
overall quickness of
the phone.

The Galaxy S 4 is
packed with 2 GB of
RAM. That means you
can run more apps at
once, have more tabs
open in your browser,
and it just contributes
to the overall
quickness of the
smartphone.
The iPhone 5 runs on
half of that, only using
1 GB.

The Galaxy S 4 has a
removable battery!

A removable battery
means that when your
phone is running low
you don't have to stay
tethered to a plug.
Samsung even sells an
extra battery kit
allowing you to get
some extra juice in a
hurry.
Users can expand the
Galaxy S 4's storage.
If you don't want to
shell out the extra
money for a 64 GB
Galaxy S 4, you can
expand the smaller
sizes (16GB and 32GB)
with a MicroSD card.
You can also save data
to the MicroSD instead
of your actual phone's
memory.

puskin: @Leopantro.......uv got me irked......this MK808 is just a USB dongle that can be connected to a TV/PC or does it come with its own screen?

Its a usb dongle that has a HDMI PORT that can be connected to an LCD TV. The TV becomes the screen. However since the TV has no touch sensitive receptor capabilities (I remember someone on youtube who said he had a touch sensitive Samsung TV that could register his touch when using thedongle) toy utilize a wireless keyboard or a special remote control on it.what makes it more special is when you run XBMC on it. It turns your TV into a media center with films and movies on demand. You close if you want to stream or download them. currently using Mtn bis hotspot on it. currently in navi watch series, this week popular episodes and these are a few of the series I'm looking at
American horror stories
American dad
Ben and Kate
East bound and down
Can't write them all. There are like 32 series on a page and it tells me it has 102 pages. This is just one folder in 30 folders in just one program and I have downloaded 5 of such programs. Haven't even gone to thefilm section. Theres also live tv so you join in at anytime. Now you understand why I'm freaked out
