Phones / Re: Top 5 Reason Why Tecno Is Still The Worst Android Phone Ever by silvernice(m): 4:21pm On Nov 20, 2014
promkingzz:
Mr OP
Okay so.. First of all I didn't hv the strength to even quote ur wrong post, no be beef sha.

You aren't a "phone expert" uncle OP, you are self acclaimed and again; I use an iPhone 5s right now so let me let you down with that before u think I'm trynna defend my status quo or beef up advertising strength for Tecno.


If u are a phone expert as u call yourself you'd know that with phone updates "firmware" and "OS" are two different things. The OTA updates other phone makers provide for their customers are firmware updates NOT OS updates, especially with phones running on the Android JellyBean OS and Below and this has NOTHING to do with Tecnos inability to run BBM as u clearly stated in ur argument. Tecno clearly stated that they will begin to provide OTA updates for phones that carry the new Android KitKat OS and you didn't cover this with ur argument.
I used a Phantom A+ before I changed it and I loved it. I was also mad for not recieving updates like my friends who were using other phone brands but after sometime I got to realize that those were not OS updates.
NO PHONE BRAND EVER PROVIDED OTA OS UPDATES FOR ANY PHONE RUNNING ON THE JELLYBEAN OS AND THOSE BELOW IT!!!
And from what I see in ur post all the tecno phones u recommended to ur customers sef na low end phones wey people dey use manage make e be like say dem dey use smart phone, I didn't see u recommend Phantom Z. The R that was the best u recommended still runs on JellyBean na, abi? And NO phone company provides OTA OS updates for that OS.
So please, point ur argument in the right direction and know that the inability of a device to run a particular software has NOTHING to do with its firmware but it's OS.
I don talk finish o



Thanks a lot bro for clearing a sentimental mind. I use the tecno h6 at the moment and it has the OS update feature in it cos it's running on android kit kat 4.4.2. The phone is awesome and for 17k I feel it's a good bargain.

Agriculture / Re: Please Where Can I Carry Out Phytosanitary Test by silvernice(m): 12:03pm On Nov 10, 2014
lanre2009:


I dont know if you are based in Lagos or not, but in case you are in Lagos, you can carry out the phytosanitary test at National Quarantine Service Office, close to MMA 2 Airport Ikeja. From Ikeja Underbridge (Close to Lasuth) ask where you can get bus to NAHCO, after boarding the bus, alight at STRABAG BUS STOP, cross to the other side of the road and ask for directions to the office. You can call MR IDACHABA (08037103205), he is the officer responsible for issuing the certificate in that office. I believe even if you are not in Lagos, he may be able to direct you to where else you may get it close to your base. Goodluck.




Thanks a lot lanre. I've contacted him.

Phones / Airtel Stole My Data O. Thieves! by silvernice(m): 1:07pm On Oct 19, 2014
had a data balance of 1743MB as at ten o clock today
and right now I checked my data balance only to see 1243
MB. left. This is appalling. I subscribed the hopeless bbs
plan two days ago and for little downloads of 10mb I see
120 Mb zapped from my balance.
This is shocking and terrible as I can only term airtel as
THIEVES AND NOTHING BUT THIEVES! Their network is
terrible and still I get my data siphoned for no reason...
I cannot blame them when the useless NCC ceases to
check them and put them in order. mcheew.
Business / Poor Service From Circuit Atlantic! by silvernice(m): 8:29am On Dec 12, 2013
I made a purchase on 22nd of November And I was subsequently informed my order had been made and shipment to commence on 26th. However I received a mail from them stating that there was a problem with the air freight due to a storm in the US that my order would soon arrive.
On Monday this week I sent a mail to them And they told me that my order would arrive on Tuesday. Today is Thursday And yet no call or mail from them. I'm very frustrated since this is my first trial with them.

does anyone have such experience too? Seems they have lost credibility.

Politics / Re: Interview With Shem Obafaiye, "My Oga At The Top" After The Channels TV Saga by silvernice(m): 12:41pm On Aug 18, 2013
kokoA: will you just shutup there?! Did you watch the interview at all? He was asked specifically about their normal website not the recruitment site which he said his "oga at the top" will let us know in due time.. Having said that, he goofed but for you to say his shortcoming is not tolerable shows you will make a very bad leader. A hard-working crime fighter made one mistake which has even brought him fame and you said we should overlook all the wonderful works he's been doing and dwell on his shortcoming. What do we stand to gain from that?! We all witnessed on the floor of the senate where an ambassadorial nominee could not recite our National anthem. What happened?! Nothing! The same person was cleared by the senate. We all had a good laugh when "my oga at the top" was trending, but it time to let Mr. Shem be!




I shake my head at what u saying. so u are tenaciously defending someone over his mistakes.
Mistakes like that occur But don't exonerate shem nor blame the journalists.

Nigeria is a Place where mediocrity is applauded.

directonpc: fan boys never die. Leave tecno fans alone. Only thing u can do is advice them to see other alternatives too as tecno is not the only fish in the water of affordable smart phones.
If You prefer to buy a phone with 1GB internal memory, No software support(official/cracked) then Go for Tecno f7.
But if you want a more powerful phone, with 12GB internal memory, software support from manufacturer and crackers, Go for Gionee E3.
Note both phones are at thesame Price.

gionee kor gelona ni. in this era where persons prefer installing apps on sd card you are busy bragging of 12gb. What do you need all that for? even s3 users even prefer apps installed on sd card.
note theirs is 16gb internal memory.

keep your comparison. you have no Place in Nigeria. one last thing - what the he'll makes gelona more powerful when phantom does all it can do effortlessly.

Blewusi:
Would you prefer a phone that you'll charge five (5) times a day compared to a phone you'll charge once a day? So you don't think a battery plays an important role in a phone? What was the MAJOR COMPLAINT of F7 users? Was it not the battery? Why did Tecno add a power bank to F7? Was it not because of the POOR BATTERY PERFORMANCE? Now concerning the different versions of S4: Some people want SMALLER PHONES but with S4 features, so Samsung was smart enough to produce S4 MINI for them. Other people want S4 without Samsung TouchWiz. They want their Samsung Android smartphones to look just the way Google designed Android. And Samsung being a LISTENING COMPANY, listened and produced the phone. Samsung cut across the WHOLE WORLD, unlike Tecno which is only limited to Nigeria. So Samsung is only trying to satisfy its NUMEROUS customers across the world.





pls oga I use f7 and the battery is OK.

Coolstan: oh? So you're telling us that you buy samsung products cus they keep increasing the battery capacity? Good for you. Maybe we buy tecno cus they improve the hardware and specifications. You also ranted about software updates and how tecno keeps releasing devices well i want to ask you this...how many versions of the samsung galaxy s4 do we have? Five maybe six right? All the same device. Samsung will make one water resistant reduce the camera quality and a few specs and ppl will buy. They will make another and put a zoom camera and underclock the cpu and ppl will still buy. Another will be released with snapdragon 600 processor and underclocked cpu ppl will still buy now the latest is the snapdragon 800 version. Now tell me who's robbing the masses?


Pls my brother don't waste precious time explaining what these dogmatized Samsung users can't see with their three eyes open. these companies are out there for making money and some guys r here defending Samsung. How many variants did HTC release for the desire series? Yet none could address the power consumption even tho they brag of the snap dragon and exynos processors.
I used to be an HTC fan But I'm tired of taking my charger every where u go rather than my Bible so I quit.

mcgboye: People go on and on about OTA and OS updates not being available for Tecno users. But are there significant improvement for every new OS releases? I think not. I have a friend who uses one old tecno (i think their first smartphone) and with his Android 2.3.something, he still accesses the google play last time we talked. Someone here uses a D5 with Android 4.0 and of cos he is still able to access the 700,000+ apps on google play. I don't think how OTA should be a deal breaker, unless your usage requires you to migrate to the very latest OS. This isn't the case in most case.

And in any case, you're not going to use your smartphone for more than 2 years. I know people who cannot buy the S3 when there's S4, even though in my opinion the differences aren't so significant to justify the 40k extra you'll pay it. 4 of my colleagues use the S4, two use the S3. Apart from the fact that, to the untrained eyes at least, there's not much noticeable differences, only one of those people using S4 uses the air gesture and the other paparazzi.

I think, like it's been said here severally, unless you really have to spend 100k on a device, there's absolutely nothing wrong (and there's everything sensible) in buying a phone that addresses you requirements 100%.

To keep comparing phones with such huge price differentials doesn't really make so much sense IMO.

Given the specs, strengths and limitations of the Phantom A1, Would Samsung have sold the same device at the price A1 is going for

Your guess us as good as mine.


Pls. tell them o. I would scarcely imagine if Samsung would sell the phantom a1 for such price when the differences in s3 and phantom would never convince a insane man to pay twice the price of phantom. for s3.
Now to address the noise of ota updates. how many persons can spot the differences in the new releases. Or are you in the software's engine?

lat4real: Lol... Gionee users are also attacking tecno users. You people are complaining that tecno release phone every three months, tell me which company isn't doing that? Samsung galaxy s4 has 5 different versions with different chips, core, gpu, lte, and so on... What about Sony? Or HTC? All of them are the same. Samsung in particular launches new phone every month, the only advantage they have is OTA, which I'm very sure tecno will come up with soon. You can't expect them to launch only one phone a year in a market where there is fierce competition. Buy phone that suits your needs, enjoy it. Don't buy phone because people are buying it, look for what you like and go for it.

Last Bullet>>> If you are using zopo, umi, thl, and other China based, and you come here dey badmouth tecno, God go punish you.



you just said it all. all this noise from Sammy users is baseless. I use phantom now and have used a series of HTC phones in the past. why does HTC release different versions of HTC one or even HTC desire series then in a space of few months. please people should stop defending phone companies here. they are all out to make money. so enjoy your phone while u can
