[quote author=Texas.Cowgirl]Over the past few months, the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 has been heavily rumored to be replacing the Samsung Galaxy Note 2, Samsung’s current flagship and one of the best Android smartphones on the market.[/quote]https://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m57xd65swZ1qjvxfho1_500.jpg

4llerbuntu: who ran out of ideas samsung or google?

its not a google device, its a samsung. its announced because it runs vanilla android and google will be the one updating and supporting it. instant updates etc etc. no complaints about carriers or samsung touchwiz

Samsung was not allowed to build a nexus, and if rumors are true, next one will still not be samsung. if u were in samsung's shoes wetin u for do?

thats like the best hardware (if ur not a HTC one lover). so lets see it run with vanilla android.



i dont even understand people anymore. people shout and shout about manufacturer and OEM customisations on phones, no updates etc etc, then they release one that runs stock, na still complain.

if this is not successful, forget about ever having updates faster than u get them now.

if this is successful, expect every other OEM to replicate the idea. meaning we will now have lots of phones other than Nexus with up to date software.

its an experiment in human nature. lets see if the complaints are actually true

This will at best be marginally successful.

Stupid Google...Samsung already takes 90+ % of the total Android profits. Why not throw HTC a bone here and use the HTC One running stock

Darejyde: Kill every thing that moves, man, woman, children even those in the womb, cattles and take no prisoners neither keep any of the spoils for your self feed their cacasses to the pigs f**king bastards the are all gona die. God bless Nigeria!!!!!!........

After all the rubbish you just posted, you still think you're a follower of God?
The killings of innocent civilians (and babies!) is nothing to be happy about...at heart you're just as evil as the Boko Haram killers.

ayd91: you said it "Policemen" and not soldiers. Lets keep the grammer simple, just so you don't get yourself confused.

*grammar*

BlackBaron: @ Leopantro
A playbook is definitely still a better device than other android tablet considering its low price point.

A 64gb is only about #26 grand comes with dual core, stereo speakers, 1080p recording and an apple esque build quality.

And you can probably buy a dual core HP touchpad running WebOS for 20k. Your point?

[quote author=Bandit C.]No, the moderator OAM4J wouldn't be around on this thread to put his kinsmen on a leash for insulting Igbos again here. He is now oblivious and ignorant of the snide remarks being yet again directed at Igbos on this thread now.

Rather when I reacted and asked the silly odua thugs to keep SE out of their petty Lagos talks and focus on their caves and shanty towns they call SW, he deemed it fit for a ban.

Na devil go punish that guy.[/quote]Why not be the change you want to see? You go about making childish insults directed at members of one ethnic group and then you come here whining when someone as misguided as you are does the same to you.
The sour smell of hypocrisy...

meh, she looks porky as hell...and that Tattoo sucks

adewasco2k: I am sorry for you guys thinking BBM on other platform will work just exactly as on Blackberry....if BBM turn to a regular app on any phone then blackberry devices are gone because thats just one unique thing about blackberry. i believe the way its gonna look like is blackberry devices can ping others others can also ping blackberry but for example a BBM on iPhone should not PING another iPhone.

if not RIP BLACKBERRY

Don't be daft. Blackberry announced the app will work exactly the same on iOS and Android as on other platforms. Fully cross platform chats between Android, iOS and Blackberry.

alnaijiri: Those same robbers were most likely Christians who prayed to Jesus for success before embarking on the robbery. Muslims, on the other hand, would never dare touch money reserved for the masjid.

Unlike your brothers that routinely shout 'God is Great' while slaughtering women and children?

bobdobbs: 8gb Nexus 4 in Canada is $309 https://play.google.com/store/devices/details?id=nexus_4_8gb&feature=device-featured
I am just wondering what they cost in Nigeria, and if it's easy to buy a Nexus 4 (or Nexus S, Galaxy Nexus) in Nigeria.

If they are easy to get, I make a secure custom ROM, which I sell here locally to Chinese businessmen who used to buy a blackberry, go to China on trips, then throw it away when they returned because the Chinese govt hacks all foreigners phones looking for industrial espionage. They can't hack Grsecurity Kernel + SElinux android, so we have been selling a lot of them. If there is demand in Nigeria, you guy's could do the same thing I do. Seems the Nigerian government want to ban blackberry, which means BB will give them an unlock key to read every single BBM, text and listen in to voice. With custom Android rom, they can't do that so will be high demand.

Most Nigerians don't really care if the Nigerian Govt can read their BBMs etc. And it isn't a large number of BBM addicts yet that are willing to give up BBM for Whatsapp etc.

Average price for the Nexus 4 is 75k in computer village. Strange that this costs 10k more than a new Galaxy S3.

21 million Lagosians and only 1000 Lagos State doctors.
That is, one doctor to 21,000 Lagosians. Yet when these overworked doctors start protesting that they want to earn 220k per month, these zombies will start defending the m0r0nic position of the Lagos State Government!

I repeat, 1 doctor to 21,000 people!

So let me get this straight...the PDP Sokoto are happily telling the world that they are stalking a private citizen all in the name of 'putting his activities under surveillance' and you people are babbling about Tambuwal?

Is it now a crime to meet opposition politicians? Is there any law against that? Are we supposed to call the cops if Wayne Rooney and Lampard are spotted having a drink? Should we impeach Jonathan for meeting with Tinubu for discussions?

Anybody tell me they are carrying out surveillance on me and they aren't Nigerian police or SSS, I'll remove some excess teeth with my fist.

Typical Nigerians, you cannot see the forest for the trees!
There are two conversations that must take place here. One is the obvious one, the condemnation of Boko Haram's decision to take women and children as hostages and conscript them into a life of servitude.
The other is the necessary condemnation of the evil policy of the Nigerian police to arrest wives and kids of suspects. This is wrong, barbaric and immoral in all ramifications...and must be condemned as illegal too.

This is not to justify Shekau's twisted actions...but police brutality in Nigeria is getting a head and MUST be confronted.

[quote author=Hy-Def]Samsung Galaxy Grand Duos. It goes for around that price. N56000, I think. Some people in department have it, and I would suggest it.[/quote]Or let him add 10k and buy a new Galaxy S3?
Grand Duos is decent but it's a midrange phone...not nearly up to spec with the big boys.

jusRadical: There is freedom of association. So he has become bad, evil, and satanic because he has a cordial relationship with Uduagham and some pdp frontline politicians? Your line of reasoning can be inferred to mean that he will be a godly man and a good chrisitan if he takes the same side with acn, cpc, apga, apc, cnpc, etc. To you and also to some of us, Uduagham may be bad, but to others, he might be their messiah. NB: I am not giving Uduagham a pass mark.

So Ayo will get your endorsement if he castigates Jonathan and pdp abi? If you think that pdp is the problem of nigerian, then you are dead wrong. All politicians in nigeria and the whole wide world are the same: selfish humans.

Kingoflag has expertly captured my point that seems to have sailed over your head.

Topics Oritsejafor speaks about

1. Boko Haram
2. Buhari
3. Fulani Herdsmen

All 'safe' topics


[size=13pt]Things he will NEVER speak about
1. Corruption and Bribery[/size]

You see why he's so beloved of the pentecostal mob and their prosperity preachings?

jusRadical: Just because Ayo has risen to speak out and defend the defenseless christians, that is why you people hate him. So you would prefer that he keeps quiet while his fellow chrisitans are slaughtered by fanatical muslims? Haters/hypocrites.

Nobody is complaining about his speaking on killings on Christians. We complaint hat he has happily turned CAN into an arm of the PDP and a patron of rich, corrupt politicians. We complain because he has a history of supporting the likes of Uduaghan and other front line PDP politicians.

[quote author=I.Joan]He maintained that their respective state governments should provide modern grazing grounds for their cattle rearers where they would stay and give their children proper education.

”They should take the cows back to where they came from while grazing their cattle in modern grazing grounds in their homesteads.[/quote]Can someone tell this man that one does not simply plant ample grazing grass in arid areas of the North? If Grass grew ample and abundant there, would the fulanis be wandering over hundreds of kilometers to feed their cattle?
Can someone tell him also that the herdsmen move their cattle this way to get them to the market also? Can someone tell him that if huge sums are spent to irrigate land for growing grazing grass, the cost will be passed on to the struggling masses?

Typical billionaire pastor, out of touch with reality. There are more sensible measures that can be taken to curb the occurrence of herdsmen/farmer clashes...he has failed to mention any one.

ENEONWO: Hear El-Rufai "Why would i intentionally deceive the world that Soludo's tenure as governor of CBN started in mid-2005 rather than May of 2004?. This only occured when one of the book's editors thought the 2004 date was wrong and "corrected" it but that escaped subsequent editorial reviews. In the face of all the admitted malfeasance, he went on to state "So, Charles needs to substantiate how any assertive error or ommission in the book amounts to "fraud" per his definition. Haba! Is El-Rufai insinuating that Charles should have had the prophetic powers to know that his errors were as a result of improper editing, perhaps, being the result of his impatience in the light of deep rooted desire to prove himself the only man worthy of positive reckoning in Obasanjo's administration? And if Charles had not pointed that out, would it not have gone down as true? In advanced climes, that error alone is enough to retract the whole publication. Only the Almighty knows how many other "unintentional" deception, "errors or ommission" in that book that are yet to be discovered by Charles and other readers. A man who could not painstakingly edit his book, meant for public consumption, is a man who may make public statements that he would deny latter. Such a man should never be trusted, especially with public office!

Your problem is that you lack intelligence. He is asking how, in light of the dictionary definition of 'fraud', does his mistake in the resumption date translate into fraud.
An error in a book does not mean it is fraudulent.

sleekcm: El Rufai admitted to not having a "professorial mind" so how on earth could he have written down "verbatim all conversations" he had with others? Did he record his conversations with people illegally?

Someone care to explain this?

You can have a very good short term memory, but have a poor retention capability over a long period of time. That is why someone can get 90/100 in an exam in 100L but by final year he cannot remember half of what he read for that course.

He says he wrote those things down straight away in his diaries and ledgers.

jackbauersballs:
Shut it you inbred monkey.
The harsh reality is that these policemen all have a death sentence on their heads,simply because they find themselves protecting wastes-of-sperm like yourself.
They must be accorded maximum respect in life and in death for doing the job you are too much of a coward to do.
And if they die doing that job, the least you can do is protect their bodies till they are give proper burials.
You honestly cannot expect men in their position,doing what they do, to accept that when they die,the people they died protecting cant even be arsed to make space for their bodies.

The way they reacted is never right, but until we start respecting these men and what they do, especially regarding combating Boko Haram, these sort of reactions will never be far off!

Hehehe! Your insults do not move me...i am made of far sterner stuff than you, and I see them as the ranting of an intellectual ant that has no weight behind his arguments.
If you will not be pleased to see the body of your relation carelessly dumped on the floor to make room for just a fellow citizen whose body got there later, will you be pleased?

Nigeria is full of millions of hard working heroes and workers who sweat and put their health on the line just to make a living for their families...and it is the taxes they pay - along with their efforts - that keep this country running. Your best wishes for folks like these include having their bodies tossed carelessly aside when policemen die, abi?

Dead bodies decay and rot if not preserved. Relatives have entrusted the remains of their loved ones in the hands of the hospital...and here you are advocating for such precious remains to be left aside as food for maggots or cremated hastily without a befitting burial...yet we all know that that hospital is not the only one with a morgue in all of Maiduguri!

I wonder if you will be this supercilious if you were a patient in the hospital awaiting surgery and you're suddenly tossed outside to die because your bed is required for a Police officer.

RuuDie: No excuses...the policemen are totally wrong to shoot at unarmed civillians but we need to understand something, these guys may have been under extreme pressure and the actions (or inaction) of the medical staff may have only served to aggravate their ire.

Yes, let's make an excuse for the police officers who committed a crime by destroying private property and aggravated bodily injury...all because they were logically and politely informed that there was no space in the morgue.

When the police catch lawbreakers, they do not accept 'under extreme pressure' as an excuse for breaking the law. Why are they then to be exempt from the consequences of their actions, just because they are policemen?

fckyourman: Why must we copy everything.

Nigerin Idol
Nigeria Xfactor
Nigeria Got Talent.

Why can't we be original for once.

It's a franchise, not a 'copy'. I urge you to reject ignorance.

jackbauersballs: I am not a police officer, and judging from your write up I suspect I am far more educated than you can ever hope to be, but that is a differnt story.

Now I ask you, Mr DonLexy...Can you do the Job? Can You risk taking a bullet in your head for 37,000 naira monthly?
Can you do the job knowing that if you die in battle, your corpse will be left to rot instead of given a proper burial?
Can you do the job knowing that the same people you are trying to protect will logon to Nairaland to curse you out?
Can you do the job holding and AK47 with few bullets and going up against an enemy you were NOT trained to handle who have better weaponry and high motivation?
Can you do the job knowing you are not loved by the enemy or the populace you protect?

Can you?

If you can't, then please shut the fucck up and show some respect.

I don't care how educated you think you are, you've just displayed the intelligence of a dyspeptic cow.
How the heck can you insinuate that the bodies of taxpaying Nigerians who died working for Nigeria should be dragged out en-masse and cremated? Are you insane? This is not about not being loved by the populace. this is about following the rule of law.

Isn't it HILARIOUS that Nairaland has all these rules for posting, yet they allow topics that condemn folks to the front page?
This woman has NOT been convicted of this offence, so it is WRONG and UNJUST to post this on the front page and assume her guilt. Use the word 'Alleged' next time or don't post at all.

joanana: Chairman how come ur s3 is 32gb? is because you rooted it or u installed a 32gb card? which is it? .

I bought it from the UK. The 32gb variants were on sale there. I think Samsung only ever released the 16GB version in Africa.

The 32GB version is extremely rare in Nigeria...i must be mad to sell for 55k, but it's been collecting dust for half a year now

The S4 looks so much like the S3, it's hard not to feel buyers remorse sometimes when I look at it. I'll be interested in seeing an HTC One in the flesh to see how that looks.

[quote author=Sunehri_145]Manure can not make top 4 without web/saf[/quote]A legend is retiring...for once in your miserable life, reach for some class and join his friends and foes in showing respect to a true legend of the game.

the more you shower insults on him, the more shame you bring to your club.

CHAIRMAN1: Thanks for cementing your status as a dullard with this post. I asked a simple question, who did better? Sanusi that has cleared the sector of 'bad ceos' has ended up killing Nigerian owned businesses. His focus has been on risk and notthing else. Hitv is dead, many Nigerian banks that could have been bailed out by govt where forcefully seized and sold to his cronies. He left unity bank becuase it was a northern legacy.didn't say u compared iwu with soludo, was only saying Iwu didnt fit the bill for such an analogy. Legendary faceless dullard.

What does a discussion about someone's CV have to do with who was a better CBN Gov between Sanusi and Soludo?

Why is Iwu's case not a good analogy when I've used it to show that an impressive CV does not always translate into impressive performance?

Why are you such an imbecilic dolt that you're so eager to argue with your betters at the expense of common sense?

[quote author=Lord_Reed]Dude I want the Note II. I suppose it's rooted and running a custom ROM?[/quote]Yeah. Rooted, Running a Custom ROM.

Seun: Please tell us where you got it!

It's everywhere by now, I guess. I got mine from a retailer in PHC for 105k.

Affordables and Slot have got it now.

Crazy thing is, Affordables sells the Galaxy S4 for 105k, but their solitary HTC One is on sale for 129k. I expect that price to be slashed sharply

Poor Sony...nobody wants to buy the Xperia Z anymore.

Someone took a photo outside a party and people are whining about 'sweaty armpits'. Now we know the sad sacks that go to parties and sit down in the corner, doing nothing.

NEWSFLASH: People sweat when they dance vigorously at parties.

Thank me later.
