Phones › Instagram To Add Translate Button Next Month by matrixx9(op): 12:32am On Jun 30, 2016

In the past few years, Instagram has grown to become one of the most
popular, most used photo sharing app. Matter of fact, just last week
Instagram hit a milestone of 500 million users and 300 million daily
visits .
According to a report, 80%of these
500 million subscribers live outside the United States hence the
importance of a translate button.

Doing a little maths, it is revealed that over 400
million Instagram users are non-Americans.
This would help easy communication on Instagram hence bridging the
language gap has always posed a great problem for social networks.
A Translate Button that translates foreign
languages into something you can understand is
more than welcome.

Instagram, via its Instagram page announced
that in the coming month, users will see a
translation button on profile bios and feed
stories written in languages you can’t
understand. Well it's uncertain how many languages would be
supported. However I think if it's connected through the Google
translate API it'll be better, unless the developers have a better idea.

Phones › Infinix Mobility Is Planning Something Big - Check Out The Infinix Hot S by matrixx9(op): 5:21pm On Jun 28, 2016

Chinese OEM Infinix is planning to unveil another family series of
Infinix
smartphone, known as the Hot S series. However, it's going to be
the first Infinix device to have a Fingerprint sensor (biometric
scanner).

Previously, I made a post about the upcoming Infinix device to feature a
Fingerprint scanner , revealed the device model number, but there
wasyno information
on device “name” as at the time of the post . After sources leaked the
images
of the device, I was able to get details of device
specifications.

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9jRrLb3Fs18/V3Kh1zj8VHI/AAAAAAAAE-s/n_4DZ5flq9w/s640/%25255BUNSET%25255D.png

So, the device being anticipated is the Infinix Hot S X521 and not
just that it features the biometric scanner, it also comes with the
virtual reality (VR) technology. Infinix was brewing something
massive and obviously nobody noticed.

Regarding to the specifications of the device, Here's a brief overview
of the Infinix Hot S specs.

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/--iBRxzw_DMY/V3Kh4T5i2CI/AAAAAAAAE-0/i1Zufea7_uw/s640/%25255BUNSET%25255D.png

Leaked Specifications of Infinix Hot S X521
5.5 inches, IPS LCD capacitive touchscreen
Android OS, v6.0.1 (Marshmallow) with pre-loaded Infinix
XOS interface
1.8GHz Octa-core MediaTek Helio X10 processor
32 GB internal storage, 3 GB RAM
13MP back, 8MP front camera
Virtual reality technology
Fingerprint, accelerometer, gyro, proximity and compass
sensors
The specifications listed above are what we should expect from the
upcoming Infinix X521 device as I managed to see ifmost of the
specifications from the leaked images. However, this article
remains incomplete till we've updated the price tag and some other
key specifications like battery and dimension of the device. So, I
advise you stay tuned.

Phones › How Chinese Smartphone Companies Are Taking Over The Smartphone Industry by matrixx9(op): 6:25am On Jun 22, 2016

How serious and dangerous is China’s offensive on Korean and
Western mobile hardware brands? Extremely Dangerous , according to
research conducted between January and March by IC Insights, which
predictably positioned Samsung and Apple above the smartphone
manufacturer hierarchy, only followed by a flurry of handheld vendors
based in the Middle Kingdom.

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-1Ybyhceb2Ko/V2JuFC7XhuI/AAAAAAAAE20/m7ka8_H1R0s/1466067049375.jpg

Huawei won bronze during Q1 2016, with 28.9 million units sold, still
considerably behind the gold and silver medalists’ 81.5 and 51.6 mil
scores respectively. But OPPO exceeded its most optimistic
expectations, leaping from eight place in 2015 to fourth, as it shipped
16.1 million affordable, mid-range Androids..

Xiaomi retained the fifth spot, Vivo surged from tenth to sixth, Korea-
based LG dropped a slot to #7, while ZTE, Lenovo, TCL, Meizu and
Micromax wrapped up the top twelve. No Sony, no Microsoft, no HTC,
and no more Coolpad in the leading pack, with IC Insights forecasting
an identical chain of command at the end of the year.
A number of Chinese OEMs, including Huawei, OPPO, Vivo and Meizu,

plus India’s Micromax, are tipped to register massive year-to-year
growth of between 29 and 74 percent, whereas Samsung, Apple or LG
should see shipment declines ranging from 1 to 5 percent. But the
Korean and US giants will remain the top two smartphone makers… for
the time being.

I think the main reason for the growth of the Chinese companies are
due to the affordability and durability of their devices. These devices
can be easily fixed at a low cost unlike Samsung, Sony, LG or Microsoft
which takes a lot of money to fix up. There's no African Brand making
the rounds yet. Will someone create a smartphone that will spark up
the rise of African OEM's?,. Let's keep our fingers crossed and wait.

Phones › BBM Rolls Out Video Calling Feature To Android And Ios by matrixx9(op): 11:31pm On Jun 20, 2016

BlackBerry announced in late April that it would be rolling out BBM’s
video calling feature to users on Android and iOS. Since then, the
company has gone ahead to make it possible for users in several
countries to be able to make calls using its popular messaging
service.
https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-H8fVyI-LRfw/V2hjyb8YpOI/AAAAAAAAE6c/-mRBcV0dSx4/1466459041497.jpg

Users of BlackBerry Messenger in the US and Canada were the first to get the ability to make video calls in beta mode in early May. 26 Latin American countries followed on June 1st and 7 days later, BlackBerry made it possible for BBM users in 17 Middle East countries to make
calls across all major mobile platforms. Starting two days ago (June
14th), BBM users in 109 countries in Africa and Europe are now able
to do the same as well.
In order for users to be able to chat via video on BBM, they need to be
using a device with an Android version not older than version 4.4
(KitKat) and iOS 8 and above on Apple’s platform. Since the video
calling feature is enabled through a server-side update, users need not
do anything, it will just show up, no need to update the app on the
store.

The feature will be available globally to everyone starting July .
BlackBerry’s late attempts to open up its core service, BBM, to
competing platforms was informed by the company’s dwindling
fortunes in mobile and the rise of competing services. Facebook’s
Messenger platform has video calling as one of the main features
across all platforms while Apple users have had FaceTime all along

.
Even though BlackBerry rolled out BBM to iOS and Android back in
2013, video calling had only been available to BlackBerry 10 users.
Borrowing a leaf from competitor’s services and keen to stay relevant,
the company is partnering with various companies to provide mobile
money services inside BBM in a few markets where it is still popular.
BBM is still struggling with a strong competitor - Whatsapp which has
also been rumored to be working on a video calling feature as well..
Let's see if this update would bring back BBM fans.

. We all want to maximize the potentials of our various Mobile devices now don't we . Now the thing is you just can't pick up a smart phone and expect it to perform huge tasks without having to tune it . With android it's called rooting and with iPhone , it's jail breaking ... Jailbreak an iPhone and I guarantee that it will do twice the job any rooted droid will do and do it better . There's no limit to the iPhone . And trust me fam , if you have dangote's money, you'll have an iPhone . iPhone bridges the gap between tech savvy and status . I can't say anything about Windows OS, I don't have one . But as far as droids and IPhones are concerned o, I have both and I will always vouch for the iPhone . * And BtW , most of the everyday apps on IOS are free . And you don't need to add your card details to use the App Store . I don't . Just Create your Apple ID just as you would create a google play ID and when asked for card, click none . *

. Nice info. I understand more now.. I'll still make research on that though

Or you can just buy an iPhone and forget about running apps hanging your phone or your phone getting very hot . The only thing you'd have to guard your phone against is water . Oya , android fanatics start to dey talk . Hate it or love it, no phone handles apps like the iPhone . And before you start talking I have a Samsung Galaxy s5 and an iPhone 6s . Not saying it's a must to have an iPhone but if you can afford it, please do and save yourself the troubles of owning a droid . My 2 cents.

... Even if I'm as rich as Dangote an iPhone still remains a no for me.. As a techie, I need an operating system that is flexible and Android provides all that.. Unlike ios or Windows devices.. I'll have to put in my atm card details before downloading an app on an iPhone just imagine.. sad

.. You can't share apps with an iPhone... And so many flaws.. If I want an iPhone I'll simply tweak my phone with an iPhone like custom Rom and I'm good to go.

Phones › 5 Things You Should Know If You Are Using A Phone With A Non-removable Battery by matrixx9(op): 10:39am On Jun 18, 2016*

I wasn't really a big fan of phones with non-removable batteries until I
got a phone with one (the OBI SF1). Since I got the phone as part of
payment for a sponsored review for a post I made about the phone on my blog. I decided to go with it. It's the sixth month I'm using the
phone and I must say that devices with non-removable batteries can
scare the hell out of you. My phone can not be dismantled since it
doesn't have any screws. However some other users get lucky to buy a phone with a non-removable battery that can be dismantled..

https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-j-mfgN_tTCs/V2UVWzNsFrI/AAAAAAAAE5c/zr7t5tjsjnA/obi_worldphone_sf1_front_back.jpg

Now Here Are Some things you should know if you are using a Device
With a non-removable battery or you're planning to buy one..
1. What To Do When Your Device Freezes (Starts Hanging)
In a normal device when this happens you can simply remove your
battery and put it back, everything will be OK after that. Unfortunately
for those of us using phones with non-removable batteries it's like a
bad dream.
There are 2 types of Freezing

A. Hard Freeze - This is when your device, Freezes for over 10 minutes
without responding.

Solution : Simply soft reboot the phone by holding the volume +,
volume down and power button at the same time for about 30
seconds. Your device should reboot and unfreeze.

B. Soft Freeze - This is just a temporarily freeze
Solution Just drop the phone for some minutes it should unfreeze after
some minutes. When it unfreezes quickly clear all the apps you've been
running and reboot the phone.

2. How To Handle Overheating

Since you can't remove the battery and allow the phone to cool. The
best solution is to place your phone on a cold surface (please not
inside a freezer or refrigerator). You may place it on a cold sachet of
water.
After some minutes your phone should be cool as ice..

3. What To Do When Phone refuses to turn on
This can be really scary but it can be handled. Hold the power button
for about a minute or 2 if your phone is still working you it'll come on. If it doesn't well try charging it

4. Your Phone Is Charging Slowly.
I made a post previously on that on my blog
so I won't bore you with more of the details on that. There are 10
possible reasons
You can see full details here.

10 Reasons Why Your Smartphone May Be Charging Slowly

5. Never Let Your Phone Fall Into Water
Unlike Phones with removable batteries.. There's no guarantee your
device will be OK after falling into water unless you're using the Galaxy
S7.. Or any water proof Smartphone..
I drop my pen at this point..

Phones › Microsoft ™ To Acquire Linkedin Corp At $26.2b by matrixx9(op): 10:59am On Jun 14, 2016

Nobody saw this coming, but Microsoft has officially
announced that it has reached a deal to buy LinkedIn Corp., the
social-networking platform for professionals, for $26.2 billion . The
announcement also states that Microsoft will pay $196
per LinkedIn share, a 50% premium to LinkedIn’s closing price on
Friday.

[img]http://2.bp..com/-GMpSEmNtGN0/V1-8CE7TLSI/AAAAAAAAE0o/UVWN8zGT8IcW3dIycGJfaKExDMQH73sWACLcB/s1600/MS-Linkedin-2016-06-12-1-c-1024x683.jpg[/img]

However, despite this agreement, Microsoft has affirmed that
LinkedIn will still retain its distinct brand, culture, and
independence. As a matter of fact, LinkedIn CEO Jeff Weiner will
still remain CEO, but will report directly to Microsoft CEO Satya
Nadella.
Wondering what Microsoft stands to gain?
The acquisition is expected to add to Microsoft’s per-share
earnings in 2019, but most importantly, Microsoft wants to
integrate existing Microsoft software into LinkedIn.
According to Nadella
The deal is expected to close within the year.

I have a bad feeling that this might be bad for Microsoft.
