well nobody is disturbing me about the free bis stuff so I can finally focus on other exploits.

one more week before I get my android MK808. watch the video on YouTube

thanks for the reply. did a bit of internet survy and the credibility of the site and there services were poor so I did a direct order from Amazon for MK802 and MK808.getting both in two weeks

@4llerbuntu and puskin, i need your help. is there any benefit in regards to flashing gingerbread and ice cream sandwich in SG2? I'm quite happy with the gingerbread.what's the best kernel for SG2 in regards to battery life and heavy usage or should i just buy another battery?

First thing i did was create a multiple charger.i had an android tablet charger i wasn't using that supplies 5v 2A.d. I got the USB multiple charger and did some joining. Now have a charger that chargers small and big pin Nokia, PSP,mini and micro USB and galaxy tab Ports.I have also noticed it charges faster than the original charger. Currently making an OTG cable.

I ordered for MK808

Just bought an SG2.Choi, I have been missing. I thought I had an Android phone before. Had a choice of getting a nexus 4 or SG2 but was told I had to wait till January.I lost patience.SG3 is wonderful but it's too plastic and I will most definitely break it.

I believe posting more than 5 times at a go

I remember when I was learning how to swim and I was hanging at the edge of the 8 feet region. a small girl jumped in and started drowning. don't know what entered me but rushed to save her. as soon as I touched her she grabbed me and tried to climb on me.I went straight down.I can never forget standing at the bottom of the pool,loosing air and staring up at her and wondering was this how I was going to die.till now don't know how I jumped to the edge of the pool and pulled her to the edge. in the end the lifeguard had to save both of us,was too tired to move.
never jump into water if you don't know how to swim

lol.I understand

finally the mod has started working. i saw the long list of insults last night and i felt depressed and embarrassed. it was so dirty and low

its not about me, its about patient confidentiality. you can't take pictures in a casually but the beating was very obvious. what's the favourate passtime of officers ?

i work in a centre where on a clinic day five doctors,including the consultant, have to see 95 patients on that day. you can understand that efficiency decreases as the day goes by. at the end of the clinic, whenever you finish,you are on call for that day till the next day. after a tiring day , you have to be on your toes till the next day, sometimes without sleep,deciding which patient requires immediate care and who can be looked at later. all the while working in sub optimal conditions to ensure patients can still maintain a hold on life. you still have to be at work the next day for those same patients. now picture this occuring twice a week. now compare that with the health care system in the U.S or U.K.

truth be told a lot of mismanagement of cases occur in private practise and yes they need governed in their handling of cases. but it should be tackled carefully. if you try to enforce it be ready to pay extra .

was on call yesterday and saw the guy but didn't attach much notice to him except for the crowd he had around him. before everyone gets a case of oral diarrhea, there's something missing in this report (sorry, i can't disclose that) that would change how you view the incident .

oh yeah , in the last paragraph the guy was lying

@helpee, stop being angry at him. i have learnt a long time ago that nobody is ever wrong on the internet. we in the system know what we see every day.
everyone seems to have forgotten that the man could have taken the woman to UPTH where 20k would have started treatment for her by the consultant. however,by the time you fight traffic and drive the long distance to choba the woman would have been long dead. i feel sorry for the man but assuming the M.D of that hospital hired a medical officer to be on call and told him not to admit unless the patient deposits and that if he goes ahead to do that then the cost would come from his salary at the end of the month.what do you want the doctor to do? i have been in that situation before,thank God no longer.

why is it that people expect doctors to be humanitarians all the time.in private hospitals it is your money,not life first that counts. if you require admission into the I.C.Uin lagoon hospital you must show your 1.5 million cash. cheques are not accepted. if you want to deliver its 250k and if it requires a C.S its 450k. they don't care if the baby's head is already out,if you don't have the money you will not be treated . i remember a case were a woman deposited 100k, underwent a major operation and ran away after incuring a bill of 3 million. she gave fake addresses and contacts.

it is said that condition makes a crayfish to bend. ask a doctor that just graduated from med school and his goal is to save lifes. if that doctor still remains in Nigeria after five years ask him again and you will get a different story.

i remember a story of a guy who had to undergo an emergency operation in America and he didn't have insurance. he had the operation but two days after getting home he got his bill of $45,000 via the mail. he said it took him three years to pay it. that's a country in which the system works. you can't try that in Nigeria he you ever want your money back.

and for those that mention the NHIS, wake up.

what's your location ?

Like its stock
price, Apple has had an
up-and-down year.
Despite giant strides such
as the launch of the
iPhone 5 and iPad Mini,
Apple's stumbles stand
out much more.
Here are five of the
biggest turkeys:

Apple's Lost Maps

Apple's Maps app debacle
led to CEO Tim Cook
issuing an apology—a
rarity for Apple. The app
was truly atrocious,
spouting off wrong
directions and lacking key
features such as public
transportation routes.
Even worse, Maps
became fodder for late
night talk shows. When
you become the punch
line, you know you're in
trouble

The Maps app is Apple's
biggest turkey this year
for a number of reasons.
Maps is arguably the
most important app on
the iPhone and other
mobile devices. You just
can't get it wrong. Also,
Apple's decision to come
out with its own maps
app and remove Google
Maps from the App Store
makes Apple look petty.
Apple's mantra has been
to hold the consumer
experience above all
other concerns. The Maps
app, coming only a year
after the passing of Steve
Jobs, doesn't say good
things about the new
people in charge.

New iPad, Not So New

Whenever Apple came
out with another iPad
version in the past, two
things were certain:
Apple's marketing team
had done its job building
hype to a crescendo, and
Apple delivered on the
hype with an amazing
new feature.
The original iPad created
the touch-tablet market.
The second-generation
iPad was lighter, faster
and could leap buildings
with a single bound. The
third-generation iPad
brought a major
improvement to the all-
important graphics.
In the fall, Apple
announced the fourth-
generation iPad. You
might not have even
heard about it; the new
iPad was a footnote
during the iPad Mini
announcement.

There's nothing really
new about this fourth-
generation iPad, either—
only a faster chip and a
Lightning connector.
Apple calls this version
"the iPad with Retina
Display," but it was the
third-generation iPad that
introduced Retina to the
tablet.
Even worse, the third-
generation iPad, which
Apple calls "the new
iPad," came out only
seven months ago. The
fourth-generation iPad is
a major turkey. Like the
Maps app, Apple has
forsaken consumers of
the third-generation iPad.

The Forstall Firing

Late last month, Apple
brass ousted Steve Jobs
protégé Scott Forstall and
divided his duties among
executives. Cook said the
management changes will "encourage
even more collaboration."
Like Jobs, Forstall is
passionate about
products and, by many
accounts, difficult to work
with. He reportedly
refused to apologize for
the shortcomings of
Apple Maps. The Forstall
firing signals a new kind
of post-Jobs Apple led by
a supply-chain guru who
believes in collaboration.
Is Apple getting soft? You
bet.

Lightning Killed the
iPeripherals Star

When Apple came out
with a new connector for
the iPhone 5 and fourth-
generation iPad, called
Lightning, Apple
consumers who had
bought a boatload of iOS
peripherals breathed a
sigh. Companies such as
hotels that outfitted
rooms with iOS
peripherals breathed a
heavier one.

Such is the world of
Apple, where Apple lords
over the masses—not
only hardware but
software, too. Apple
determines what apps get
into the App Store and
reserves the right to
remove them whenever it
wants without any
explanation.
Meanwhile, Apple iOS
peripherals makers
cheered: Old customers
are new again!

The Great Facetime-
iMessage Outage

This month, Apple's
iMessage and FaceTime
services suddenly
stopped working, twice in
four days. Sure, outages
happen (just ask RIM).
But one of Apple's
hallmark marketing
messages is, "It just
works." Well, not this
time.
While the outage itself
isn't a big deal, the
underlying message is
the real turkey: Apple is
becoming just another
tech company.

@4llerbuntu, thanks for the info. i used droidwall and couldn't find any abnormal process seeking internet access but will keep checking

something funny happened on my whatsapp.i occasionally get messages from contacts saying whatapp will block you if you don't send this messages to 20 other contacts , blab bab bab sheep etc. today i got such but it started with "before you read this check the status update of your contacts and it would display Error: status available".shortly after my phone restarted on its own.i checked it and sure enough all my contacts had that as their status update.
however i found it odd that my groups still had their various updates showing. so i copied my whatsapp apk from my system folder,to installed whatsapp,deleted the cache and re installed the app. the error message disappeared. can viruses or trojans be sent via whatsapp?

here is another tweak I found. for this you need DOGCATCHER, OPERA MINI AND DROIDLOADER.
I love listening to podcasts but occasionally podcast apps have issues and you are limited to the number old podcasts you can list to.so what I do is this.

install dogcatcher, click on the rss feed I want ,click on details and copy the url of the feed.
now I don't know how or why this only works on opera mini but if you use opera mini to go to the url ,you can select and very very old podcasts that you can't see on the main program website.if you paste the link on any other browsee you get a distorted webpage with random words.
when you click on the link of the podcast you want to download and a new tab opens, copy the url of the download page and paste it in droidloader to download the podcast
its a bit long but it works.currently listening to last years "this week in tech" and you can pick up useful websites from old podcasts

puskin: You wan start??

lol.at least I'm not the one in trouble this time.

I have an android phone and an android tablet that doesn't have the capability to create a hotspot. however, it has a 32gb microSD were I store all my files.if you are familiar with WIFI FILE EXPLORER then you would know what a wonderful app it is. however its good for the phone not for the Tablet.

what I do is create a hotspot with the phone, log on the network with the Tablet then run SWIFTP on the tablet.I can now access my file anytime.
its a bit laborious but I hate carring cables about.

why is it that I don't understand the concept of this song? the dance steps have something to do with horses. apart from that I'm clueless. is this what old age does to the mind.

about viewing someone's profile on fb, there was a url I came across earlier this year that does this.you log into fb,paste the link,put in the full name of the person you are interested in and click enter and you are in the person's page. if you work at a place that everyone uses the same wifi and you have an android phone,its a piece of cake.met some girls like that and they are always like "when did I send you a friend request? ". you mean you can't remember? I feel insulted.

the thread has been interesting so far but if I get that reply I would be like "goodbye". don't have time to be a fb stalker.BTW,people have multiple profiles on fb.she might have a fb page just for people like you.

Master Yoda, Apple is cheating.!!

@4llerbuntu, but it's true.two to three days would pass and not a single post.it's a pity I'm always busy, would post so many app reviews here and tweaks for people to enjoy

i don't watch Nigerian movies but even i remember OJ productions back in those days when watching a movie made in Nigeria was interesting,educational and fun. but now i can't stand the rubbish i see as Nollywood

I wonder if this is a contributing factor to the high rate of cancer of the prostrate seen in a lot of rich Nigerians ?

DUDE, I know you.I knew you where on Nairaland but didn't know your handle. will hola later.
btw, is that the road I will have to take to get to uyo? wahala dey oh.
