I agree with you on the first and the last, but I must tell you third party apps helps in saving battery... I use greenify (rooted device) it helps hibernate some useless system apps that keeps working in the background and it saves alot of battery cos background apps really juice up your battery.

Just to be clear greenify helps but not in the way you think. Your battery is subjected to how much your phone resource use. Greenify helps buy reducing that load. It doesn't physically do anything for your battery except reduce the load on it. Conversely it can be argued that any app that helps your phone last longer reduces the number of charge cycles within a period of time as opposed to not using them which in turn actually helps preserve the viability of the battery in which case, yes third party apps do help.

Now I'm confused. Thank you

Why is it that more than half the people who take up the mantle to defend the android OS do such a horrible job?

iOS fan boys are humans just like you. They saw android and knew it was cheaper and a lot more functional than apple so why did they go ahead and get it?

Before I continue let me just point out that I think both are equal. Where one wins the other loses.

1: most android fans will get you started on the limitations that come with using an iPhone. Newsflash, most people don't notice it. While using my galaxy s4 I never had to send anything via Bluetooth or get stuff that wasn't already on my computer. Truth is you know this before you got the phone and you did because it wasn't going to be an issue. For those who know, there are tons of ways to improve on that. Xender allows sharing. With infuse I can just copy any video and play. It's still hectic sometimes but let's be honest it's like driving a V8 that drinks fuel, you really don't care.

2. One con that just breaks my head with iOS is storage. It is either too small or too expensive. That said, if you have ever lost important data because your memory card got fried or infected then you will appreciate having no memory card slot and know that your phone memory is as reliable as they come and can keep your data and allows you to access it at any time. I didn't know memory cards had class speeds until I got a fake one. This one is a tie

3. Hardware: android fans won't like this but raw stats are just fun when they are read. When a monstrous quad core still struggles and lags with the most basic use where a simple dual core excels doing the same thing is just amazing. Any tech wiz who wishes to be honest will admit that every iPhone iteration was top line in performance. Androids pack raw power and so need more juice and still manage to last just as long as the iPhone. And please if you use your iPhone on 3G then don't bother. That thing sucks battery like a hungry baby. Wifi is the answer. Anyway, hate it or love it. The iPhone wins here and flawlessly too.

3: software features: this is two way. Apple vs samsung and android will win anyway. They have just too much stuff. But iOS vs android? iOS kills it everytime. The sheer amount of things you can do (even though most were stolen from android and made only better) is just amazing. The camera, the sound, the media support...yada yada....I'll call this a tie because of samsung.

4: security: this is really subjective don't you think? I mean if you root your android and jailbreak your iPhone they pretty much become the same. There isn't one thing you can do with a rooted android that can't be done with a jail broken iPhone (maybe it's more complicated in the iPhone but it's possible). So let's assume we don't tamper with stuff. The android exposes you to tons of crapware in its own play store. Apps that tell you to speed up your phone only to slow it down. Fake apps that do nothing but fill your cache. Eventually you get that storage error where you have space but can't install stuff. The fact that you can't install third party apps on iPhone is one reason why it's ecosystem is still secure. Not invinsible but it's a lot more secure than what android offers (except you are using the blackphone) iOS wins


5 Price: let's not speak too much English. Android wins

6: flexibility: android wins flawless. You don't need any software once you have your android. You can plug to anything and share with anything. That's just power. iPhone in all its glory can't compete there. Android wins


There is a lot more detail I can cover but it's really boiling down to this one fact:

They are really doing the same thing in different ways. I use both and I can't tell you I prefer one to the other. If you can afford both you'll get both and that is Gods honest truth.

please who knows when the ongoing screening for new applicants would end? I'm in abuja by the way

I spent the holidays with this game. It is easy to see why it was GOTY. I was a Mage. Specialized in elemental spells. Solas, Cassandra and iron bull are my best team. I love iron bull because he can soak up damage while I'm healing a fallen companion. Done with the game though. Nothing new to play this year so I'm back on Fifa 15.

Nice

Scare the hell out of Dangote and makes sure I convince him that his peace lies in making me very rich.

Spicylate:
i would have typed, spelt and printed out end the minute the no 2 was done.

Yeah. Now I need to just stick to the 'end' decision

Deefuray:
There's a clear difference between your case and the op's friend's case.
You confessed, she on the other hand was caught.
You kissed a girl once, she on the other hand has cheated SEVEN TIMES! Haba!

Is there a particular number that is the limit before someone can be dimmed unchangeable? I didn't catch mine red handed. But I caught her in a lie, did some digging and snooping and then found out. More than once, less than seven times. The question still unanswered is how do you not forgive someone? You claim to love. The very thought of the pain she is feeling as she begs for my love is heartbreaking.

Deefuray:
There's a difference between a FIRM NO nd a TEASING NO. When she comes begging, let him give her a FIRM NO. An unfaithful girlfriend can never turn out to be a faithful wife

I kissed a girl once, confessed to my gf a day later. I haven't done that again since then. Isn't it possible for someone to change? To decide to not do something and hold firm to that decision?

See I need to follow this topic like mad. This is my life right now. Only that we have put in 4 years. We broke up last year and to me I think it should be that way. But I miss her so much. Every other minute is spent thinking about her. She is coming to see me 2mao for us to talk. A part of me wants my baby back...but Kai....it's hard to trust now o and without trust....

I still want to believe people can change sha. Make una comment abeg. Help a brother out

just got out of one and it feels like I just woke up from a nightmare. Serial cheater was what she was. smh

clevermind I hear there is an arcade in wuse 2 where the have paint guns and you get to play soldier for a while. heard of it? I'm looking for somewhere unique to take someone special today

opened just one. Got mangala. If it ain't the best pack I ain't touching it.
by the way has anyone noticed that you have better odds when you open packs with points instead of coins?

I know of only one reason that will allow me sleep alone with my spouse in another room and that is if I snore so loudly and she can't sleep. Save that...my baby doesn't only sleep beside me but in my arms

It's wearing off. Moving back to blacklight.

honourableseyi:
Relax and wait till the stipulated time. The next thing on the line is that screening; it is after that you will get your matric number and later proceed for payment. Without screening, no matric number, without matric number, you can't pay.

Thank you very much. I will wait

Please I need help and direction o. I have paid in the bank and i have printed the admission letter. The next step is to go to the study center and do what? I went there and was told to come back in the 1st week of january for screening...please can someone explain to me the process I need to go thru. I'm in abuja

Can't find it

Not out for android yet

This has got me as far as division 2. na here your boy hook. I need some aguero to pair with costa but on pc these players cost a controller and an adapter

thanks. will do that tomorrow. from there what next?

anthony village or ketu ikosi lagos

Too bad....I'm in abuja

location?

Yeah I guess...they did...till next year be that. Can't wait for the day amazon and eBay begin to ship to nigeria. These jokers will be out of the market then

So it's over and please can anyone confirm that they managed to place an actual order....anyone?

Had my eye on that s5 baby....they just went and pissed me off is what they done did

What confuses me is that they spent so much money on adverts....dstv even aired one....only for them to pull this rubbish off

I have a few questions:
1. They advertise on every platform possible to bring this?

2. They put those eye catching deals and then say they sold out without actually ever leaving them on for more than 10 minutes?

3. That success message is measured in terms of what? Cause traffic monitor records that jumia had the same number of hits today as the have had all through the week....why didn't they crash then?

4. How many people have managed to actually buy anything that isn't considered old news and falls under the clearance sale category?

5. Please update with a comment as soon as you do get any item you ordered.

6. Also please comment with your experience with jumia so far....especially today...

....previously on jumia: Black Friday kicks off tomorrow and here are a few deals you can look forward to. An iPad mini, a blackberry passport, a Samsung galaxy s5 and a Playstation 4 console bundled with fifa 15....all of these going with at least 40% worth in discounts.

.....black Friday begins

12:01 am: it started. The page wasn't updated. Just showed a timer that had stopped counting

1:01 am: The first deals are up...up to 55% in discounts, none of the said deals. Just a bunch of TV sets from last year with clearance sale tags, air conditioners and other house ish. An injoo phone (which I think was a nice deal), one android tablet and a bunch of low productivity laptops.

4:01 am: Site goes down.

4:30 am: it's back up....same deals....a total of about 18 items.

6:59am: Same page....with some items greyed out with the sold out tag on them. A Samsung TV and one laptop most obvious. Items now down to 15

7:01 am: The iPad mini and Samsung galaxy are now listed and also greyed out with the sold out tag


...let's take a break....how do you sell even two items in 2 minutes? And did you plan to do black Friday with just one of each item?

8:01 am: The blackberry passport is now sold out too

9:01am: the Playstation 4 console is back up.... the rest still sold out

10:01 am: site goes down....message now says....black Friday was a success and they have gotten more traffic than they anticipated....will be back soon with more deals.


....another break: really? BlackFriday and you didn't anticipate how much traffic? One TV and a laptop greyed out and that is what you call a huge success?


11:00am: still down. Comes back up and goes back down.

12:01 pm: the iPad mini is back....still sold out. The passport is available again and so is the Playstation 4 console...the galaxy s5 is still elusive

2:01 pm: site goes down....same success message

2:35pm: new deals now....including a blackberry z3 and a Q10. Click on any deal now and select buy now....nothing happens. Or you get the message: nothing was added to your cart....


4:01 pm: site down again.




It's now close to 8:01 pm....next on jumia....
