How Many Times Will a 30000mAh Power Bank Charge Your Smartphone Fully?

Since lack of constant power supply has remained the order of the day in certain regions, the need for Power Bank to keep your smartphones on constantly will continue to arise.

Now since most of the lower capacity power bank will not charge your phones as many times as possible and will not even last for a full day, and you decided to get a Heavy Duty capacity power bank of 30000mAh to solve your phone charging problem;

How long will this capacity power bank last for you and how many times will it charge your smartphone?

 smartphones


In as much as the above question depends on lots of factors, we are going to be speaking in general and giving you a near perfect estimate of what to expect of a normal 30000mAh capacity power bank.

Must Read: 5 sure bet in Power Banks that will keep your phone on for long


If you have gotten yourself a 30000mAh Power Bank from online stores likeJumia and Konga, then here are what to expect of the power bank in terms of durability and how many times it will charge up your smartphone;

= => If your 30000mAh Power Bank is fully charged, though takes quite a long time to achieve (about 10hours to get all charging indicator light full and strong), it will charge a single smartphone for approximately 6 times from flat battery to full when you only put the phone to charge without making use of it as it charges.

Now, another question is; do you charge your phone up to 6 times in a day from flat battery to full?


Most times, people don’t charge their phones up to 6 times in a day even under intense usage and approximately, most heavy users charge their phones twice or thrice a day, and just as we said, that we know that it depends on lots of factors like how strong your phone battery is when fully charged and the rest.

Now if you only charge your phone twice in a day under normal condition and the 30000mAh Power Bank when fully charged is giving you ability to charge your phone 6 times before the Power Bank runs out of power, what that means is that a single full charge of your 30000mAh power bank will take you for 3 days.

On the other way round if you do charge your phone 3 times in a day, what that means is that the 30000mAh power bank will last 2 days for you before it runs out of power completely.

= => Secondly is that we know that some of you like charging and pressing (using) the phones at the same time, and you don’t expect the power bank to last the same way as to when you just put your phone to charge without pressing it because while using your phone as it charges at the same time, it causes the power bank to dissipate more energy and thus will run down quick.

So, now on this case of using your 30000mAh power bank in charging your phone and pressing the phone at the same time, the 30000mAh power bank if fully charged will only be capable of charging your phone from flat to full 2 times, and 2 times will most likely entails that the power bank will last only for afull day, since you most times charge your phone twice in a day.


That is what you need to know about normal 30000mAh Power Bank if you have any intention of picking up one for yourself.

5 Unsafe Acts You Should Avoid at all Cost While Making Use of Your Tech Gadgets


Just as the saying goes that beauty is always in the eyes of a beholder, and now I am saying that safety too is also in the eyes and hands of the beholder.

There are certain unsafe practices that many of you often indulge in while making use of your tech gadgets and this piece will be serving as a reminder to those unsafe practices and also as a strong voice for those that practice such unsafe acts to desist completely from such acts.

If you still don’t know about these unsafe acts when making use of your various tech gadgets, then here we roll;

1. Using of Power Banks while plugged into an AC outlet


You might have heard or read about the recent incidence that is currently breaking the internet on how a Ghanaian girl was electrocuted while using a power bank – and this was how it all happened;

According to sources, the Ghanaian was making use of her Power Bank that was plugged into an AC outlet, and she did so to enable the Power Bank to charge up when power is restored.

On the cause of using the power bank, she felt asleep and slept off while having the power bank on her chest.

Then unfortunately power was restored and there was a surge in voltage and heavy current flowed into the power bank and she was electrocuted by the power bank stocked on her cleavage.

Now this is an eye opener for all, that apart from this ugly incidence it is totally unsafe to plug a power bank and still be using the power bank at the same time.

2. Plugging a phone and using the phone at the same time to be making/receiving call

Many of you are also guilty of this particular act, and you should desist from it completely – similar case as the one above has been reported in the past where the victim plugged his phone and was making a call.

The precautionary measure here is that when you plug your phone and want to use it to make/receive call, you should unplug the phone completely before using and then after making/receiving your calls you can then plug it back and leave it to charge.

3. Making use of your laptop directly on your lap close to your manhood/womanhood


In as much as it is regarded as laptop, it doesn’t necessary mean that you should be using it on your lap in the manner that can endanger your health.

Always avoid placing laptops directly without shield on your lap and more so keeping it very close to your manhood.
Recommended: How to Detect a Fast and Slow Smartphone Power Charger


The heat generated by your laptop on prolong usage can damage your manhood when you place it directly on your lap.

Better still for convenience, you can easily place your laptop on a desk and if you must place it on your lap then you should be mindful of the proximity to your manhood/womanhood.


4. Putting your phone on loudspeaker while making use of it very close to your ear in making/receiving calls

If you must make use of your phone on loudspeaker then you should avoid placing it very close to your ear.

Sometimes there could be a surge in sound while making use of your phone on loudspeaker and the sound could come out loud enough to cause deafness.

5. Placing and making use of laptop on a bed

Some of you are also guilty of this; you make use of your laptop while placing it on bed.
This time around for the safety of your gadget, you should avoid this act totally.

Your bed can easily block the vent of your laptop causing it to overheat and unlike when you place it on flat plane surface.

Finally safety measures are important things you should always have at the back of your mind and not even only when making use of your tech gadgets but also in all ramifications of life.

By so doing, you end up prolonging your life, equipment/gadgets and keeping a better environment.

So, stay safe and play safe all the time and do not be victim of unsafe acts!

What if there was no undo (Ctrl + Z) command in modern day computing?



This piece was born out of recent incident that happened and that I know would have caused me so much pains only if there was no undo (Ctrl + Z) command, but all thanks to that wonderful and simple command in computing.

So have you ever thought the way I am thinking right now; What if there was no undo command (Ctrl + Z) command in computing? Or have you also ran into deep mess before that would have been a debacle and that would have probably caused you so much pains too but your only saving grace became the undo command (Ctrl + Z) at that particular moment?

 computer


Though all aspect of computing, including all the commands with their shortcut key combinations are useful in one way or the other in their own ways, but it seems that some commands are more priceless than the other.

Must read: Do I Need to Root my Android Phone before I Can Tweak/Change IMEI?

A typical example of that priceless command and its shortcut key combination is the undo command (Ctrl + Z).

Now here is how it all happened; just yesterday, I was working on an official and extremely important document that has taken a complete week to put the contents together and contains about 4000 words in length.


The error came in as I wanted to increase the fonts of the entire document, as usual, one will have to select the entire document either by highlighting with mouse from down to bottom or simply by using the shortcut keyboard command of Ctrl + A before changing the font, and which I did by applying the shortcut method. The next thing that happened was just in a split of semi-second and oblivious to me, I must have tapped a button on the keyboard unknowingly after the highlighting, and when I raised my eyes on the screen, the whole document was gone and I was left facing blank white screen.

Recommended: Root all your android devices now


Now since I couldn’t really figure out what happened, the only thought in my mind at that moment was to press Ctrl + Z, which I did and the whole document appeared again like magic, I then smiled to myself, nodded my head left-right and asked myself “What if there was no undo command (Ctrl + Z) in modern day computing?”….obviously it will be hell or disaster.


One thing about the shortcut Ctrl + Z command that I want point out to you here is that; Do you know that out of the 26 letters from A-Z on a conventional computer keyboard, that Ctrl + Z is the shortest key combination distance when holding down Ctrl + any other letter?

Over to you, how do you envisage modern day computing without that that simple undo command (Ctrl +Z)

Is the MTN 7.5GB Free Data Still Working?


Well, I don’t know if  MTN machines are faulty or something similar to that, all I know is that folks have been enjoying themselves online these few days with different free MTN data package and the most pronounced was the 7.5GB plan.


Apart from sending 101 in a text message with a new SIM to 131 to get the7.5GB, some also got 2GB by sending SPB to 131. check out: Latest and Cheapest Glo Call Tariff Plan, Glo Gbam + (Plus) for 11K/sec to All Networks


The whole thing was like if you just type and send anything to 131, some free and working gigs of data will be allotted to your SIM, and am even sure that even if you decide to type your name Chinedu or Ronke and send to 131, MTN will weigh the name and give you a suitable amount of gigs.
is-mtn-75gb-free-data-still-working.


Funny enough all the gigs were working fine on all devices and some have downloaded heaven and earth already with it.

But at a point I was shocked that people used the MTN data mercilessly as if they have forgotten how MTN work; that they give you with right hand and collect it back with left hand in a stylish way.


And I was even more in shock, especially when somebody told me that because of the MTN free gigs that there was scarcity of new MTN SIM cards in his location.

But one thing is certain here that whatever has beginning must surely have an end, and it has all started, as MTN have started wiping out those 7.5GB data in their usual way.


If yours have not been wiped, just find something of humongous size to download with it, because they are wiping it turn by turn and do not go thinking that yours is a magic SIM that is why they have not wiped it, because they will surely come for you.

Then back to the topic of the day, for those of you still nursing the ambition of getting a new MTN SIM and to send 101 to 131 to get 7.5GB again, I want to tell you at this point that you should just drop that ambition and find something else to buy with that N100 that you budgeted for the SIM.


And even if you buy new SIM now and even go ahead to use SMS bomber to bomb 101 to 131, all that you will be getting is that “You have insufficient credit to purchase the data bundle”.


So in plainer words, the free 7.5GB MTN data plan no longer work.

How to Carry Out Antutu Benchmark on Your Android


First of all, what is Antutu Benchmark?

At the hearing of Antutu Benchmark for the first time, some took it to be bombastic words that are very difficult to understand, and little wonder somebody once said that he will never understand this Antutu Benchmark that he has been hearing for ages now.


But I want to tell you now that Antutu Benchmark is very easy to understand and it is very far from being some sort of bombastic words as you might have taken it to be to something that you will finally cherish after reading this.
how-to-carry-out-antutu-benchmark-on-your-andriod.


Antutu Benchmark is just the most popular Android benchmarking app out there.


In other words it is android app that test and access android devices full firmware and hardware components performance like RAM, User Experience, CPU, GPU, input-output performance etc.

It critically accesses them and presents standard score after the test that is uploaded on Antutu scoreboard and used to compare other android devices.

As Alexa is to benchmarking of all webpages after taken to cognisance certain parameters so is Antutu Benchmark is to android devices.


Now here is how to carry out Antutu Benchmark of that your android device in order to see the Antutu ratings of your device as compared with other android devices; follow the simple steps below;

= => Head straight away to PlayStore with your Android and search for and download Antutu Benchmark

= => After installation, launch the Antutu Benchmark app

It will take few minutes for the test to complete, after which it will list your device and present a flickering digits score as the outcome of the test.

That score that blinks is the Atutu Benchmark rating/score of your device, and you can navigate to Ranking at the right of the Test menu to see the position of your devices amongst some other standard devices that have been tested and already uploaded in the Antutu Scoreboard.

You should note at this point that every time you repeat the test, you might always get slightly different results because in as much the score is mainly determined by the hardware configurations of your device, it could be influenced by some other elements such as the number of running apps, temperature etc. any time you decide to carry out the test.

I Want to Buy Phone, But Don’t Know Which Phone to Buy, Come in Now for Help


Well, we are going to be as general as possible in order to be able to narrow down the wide and best criteria to follow in picking that particular phone best suitable for you and the purpose it will serve.

Since we perceived that at this point, you are quite confused on which phone to buy, we will be going straight away in helping you make informed decision on the kind of phone that you most properly need.

Now, do you want Nokia Torch (general way of categorising non-smartphones including monochromes) that you can use for making calls and text messages only or you need a smartphone for wider and full computer like purposes?
i-want-to-buy-phone-but-dont-know-which-phone-to-buy.


If you have a very low budget and it is Nokia Torch that you need, then just keep like $10 to $20 (2k to 5K); there are lots of them, ranging from different brands as Nokia, Samsung, Tecno etc.


Must Read:
Do I Need to Root my Android Phone before I Can Tweak/Change IMEI?


So you can just go for Nokia 105 or Samsung Keystone 2 E1205 or Tecno T342; there batteries are very strong and you can use them to make calls and send SMS for almost the whole day before charging.


Now is it a smartphone that you need to buy?
There are different categories and brands of smartphones commonly available, and the most common and the ones I will advise you to go for are Android Phones, Apple Phones, Windows Phones and/or Blackberry Phones.


Amongst these 4 major categories mentioned; which platform and which particular phones in any of the categories will you suggest and that will suit you?


Well, among the 4, no doubt that Android and Apple are currently leading the race in smartphones demand and sales but Windows and Blackberries are equally good but their demands are in decline as result of being outclassed by those other 2.

If you will want to go for android which is not a bad idea, we have covered you up fully on the Best guide to buying an android phone.


Then for Apple phones, you should know that if you are using Apple Phones outside America, especially in many African countries, you will not be able to enjoy the full potential of owning an Apple smartphone; other than that Apple phones are wonderful pieces of devices with masterpiece design, built and functionalities.


If you are loaded in cash, the best Apple phone currently available is iPhone 6 Plus and it will cost you about $900 to $1000 (1800K to 200K) to obtain one. iPhone 6 is equally good as the iPhone 6 Plus and with little reduced prices, and you can keep about $700 to $800 (150K to 160K) for it.


Or you can consider going for the lower versions in iPhone 5 and iPhone 5 S that can save you huge cost and still serve a good purpose for you.

Then coming down to Windows phones; Windows phones are not really doing great in the market currently and demand for them are quite low.


Everybody is waiting and hoping that Windows 10 Phones that is on the way will drastically turn the tide around and shoot them back to full limelight.


But for now if you like Windows and you are to go for a Window phone then, there are varieties for you to pick from, now under the Microsoft Lumia name; if you have a low budget, average budget or high budget, I guarantee you will see the Window Lumia phone that will serve you well.

For low budget Lumia phones that will cost you about $100 to $120 (20K to 25K), you can go for Microsoft Lumia 520, Lumia 625 or Lumia 820, they are value for money device in that range; then if you have slightly increased budget for Windows phone, then go for Microsoft Lumia 730 or Lumia 830, these are you best bargain in this categories and will cost you about $250 to $300 (50K to 60K).


But for highest end Lumia devices you should budget about $380 to $420 (75K to 90K) for Lumia 1020 and Lumia 930; those are for your windows phones


Finally we have the Blackberry; currently, they are really not doing well too in the market and even in all the effort they are putting in their recent Blackberry 10 devices to remain relevant, their devices are still seen declining in demand, no wonder Blackberry even want to port to Android.

Though security wise, Blackberry still boast and pose as company with the most secured devices and OS and they have whole lots of recent devices you can still consider to buy.


For the highest end blackberry device you can go for the Blackberry Passport which will cost you nothing less than $500 to $550 (100k to 115K), followed byBlackberry Classic which is also a good device that you can get for about$350 (72K).


Then if your budget for blackberry devices is not very high you can consider getting for yourself the Blackberry Q5 or Q10 that will cost you about $152(35K) for the Q5 and $200 (40K) for the Q10.

The blackberry devices listed above all come with QWERTY keyboardcombined with touchscreen, but if you will prefer full touchscreen without any form of physical keyboard, then consider Blackberry Z3 and Blackberry Z30with average budget.

Will Simple Server APK Work on Devices Like Samsung, hTC, LG, Sony and Other Non-MTK Devices?


Owning to the increasing relevance of the android Simple Simple in powering up browsers for seamless surfing of the internet with simple tweaks, many folks have seek answer to the above question.

Some already know that Simple Server APK works well on MTK and Spreadtrum devices and are already using it on their devices, but to know if it will power up browsers on devices like Samsung, hTC, LG, Sony and other non-MTK devices is what they actually can tell.


And again somebody also asked me the other time in addition to whether Simple Server can work on those devices, he went further and demanded to know if his Samsung device needs rooting before he can install and use Simple Server on it. read: 4 Notable giant tech companies of our time that have been swallowed by others -

Well, since we are going on marathon sensitization in order to clear up most misinformed assumptions and guesses by certain folks out there on issues relating to rooting, IMEI tweaking and analysis, autoproxy, proxydroid andSimple Server, we are also going to take our time to handle the above question in the most professional way.

Simple Server APK is an ingenuously designed app for all android devices, regardless of whether they are MTK, Spreadtrum, Qualcomm, Exynos etc. It will work on your Samsung devices, hTC, Sony, LG, Motorola, all MTK and Spreadtrum devices and it does not discriminate any categories of android devices.


And the good thing is that it does not even require any rooting on any of those devices, but only just the required and current working tweaks on the settings and then you are good to go browsing.


But note that it powers only the browsers in all those devices and some apps that runs on background will not work with Simple Server alone, and hence the need to augment it with apps like Autoproxy or Proxydroid which in turn requires rooting before it can power up all other background apps on those devices.


Those are all you need to know for now about using Simple Server APK on non-MTK devices.

Phones that Re-defined Tecno, Infinix, Innjoo and Itel Brand


Tecno,
Infinix, Innjoo and Itel brands of smartphones are undoubtedly the most common MTK android devices in most emergent market for android smartphones, with exception of Itel in the list of MTK devices because Itel devices are mainly Spreadtrum.


For quite a long period of time now, the Chinese OEM of these brands of devices have being on board with constant and continuous production and releases of different models of the devices into those markets.


Definitely those OEM all started from somewhere and at the beginning when their earlier devices were almost nothing to write home about as compared to the sophistication of their present devices.

phones-that-re-defined-tecno-infinix-Innjoo-and-Itel-Brand.


But at certain point of production and the release of these devices, there are particular devices from these OEM that truly re-defined(turning Point) their brands from low end specs smartphones to high end specs, and even to the extent that some of the devices were able to redeem the image of the company from near oblivion back to limelight.

Little wonder the saying “those that do not embrace their past has no future”, and some will put it like this “that it is often proper to give Caesar what belongs to Caesar” or still “let honour always be given to those that deserve honour”.


In similar vein, we want to point out that particular device that that changed the faces of each of Tecno, Infinixn, Innjoo and Itel brands of smartphones.


Without further ado, here are the devices that changed the faces of those brands;
For Tecno Mobile


This appear to be the oldest brands amongst others in the emergent market, and the device that truly changed the face of the brand to the height that the company has attained today is no other than Tecno Phantom A+ AKA Tecno F7.


The device no doubt bridged the gap between Tecno’s devices with low end specs and that now with high end features.


Recommended: check out the Samsung VS Apple, Smartwatches VS Smartphones


For Infinix Mobility

The Infinx brand is almost as old as Tecno in the emergent market. In fact, it was Tecno greatest rival at the onset, but then, Tecno later overshadowed them and almost left them in oblivion when the likes of Infinix devices like Infinix Race Max, Infinx Eagle etc. could not withstand Tecno’s force.


But the phone that did the magic for them and catapulted them back to limelight is undoubtedly the Infinx Zero –X507 AKA Infinix Hero


For Innjoo

Though quite a new brand as compared to that other 2, they came into the market almost with full force and stand the advantage of seeing and correcting the mistakes made by those other brands in the production of their earlier low-end devices.


The Innjoo phone that defined the brand was the Innjoo i2S. Some of you might be tempted to say that it is the Innjoo Note, but the true device that did it for them was the i2S.


Don’t Miss: check out Boom J7! the Latest Tecno Boom J7 with Awesome Specs


For Itel Mobile
This brand of android devices have also being in the market for quite some times now and they differ from those other brands as earlier mentioned from being spreadtrum devices while those other ones above are MTK devices.


They are well known for their single and dual core processor devices, not until the device that re-defined itel brand was made in Itel it1502.


I believe that at this juncture, we have been able to give credits to the device from those brands that truly deserved credits, though we all know that most of their recent models of devices have overtaken those other ones mentioned that re-defined their brands.

Is Cloud storage the future of storage devices?

Cloud storage is a way of storing digital data off-site in remote databases which is different from your usual data storage that you store data in your internal and external drives.

Wikipedia sees cloud storage as a mode of data storage where digital data are stored in logical pools, in which the physical storage spans across multiple servers operated and hosted by third party hosting companies.

Whichever be the case, both definition are exactly what cloud storage entails.

 cloud


In my personal visualization for cloud storage, I will like you to also picture it in literal manner of storing data in the cloud.

A new and fast growing technology of storing data to your devices that can easily be synchronize in the cloud (remote database) with huge advantage over your external and internal storage devices like your hard disc drive, flash drives, CD and DVD discs etc.,


The data stored in the cloud can be retrieved and manipulated anytime anywhere without having to need the physical presence of the personal devices where the data were stored.

Then also for those that like gathering or accumulating plenty of heavy data to their devices, but always have the fear of where to store these data or maybe fear that their devices will slow down having these numerous data in them, cloud storage is just the answer.


No doubt that cloud storage does have its own shortcomings, like the fear of private data being compromised by disgruntled third party host worker or hackers trying to delve into private data that are stored in the cloud, cloud storage is a modern technology that has come to take its position in the ways data are stored in devices, and will most likely undo the conventional disc storage in the coming future.


As each day passes by, more people tend to embrace cloud computing and storage. Companies are not left out as more companies are also embracing it and providing more cloud storage services.

Companies like Microsoft has its Skydrive and Onedrive cloud storage service, while Google offer Google drive for cloud storage, Apple as iCloud for same purpose and other notable companies that have also embrace the modern cloud storage trend are Dropbox, Amazon Cloud, Box, Mediafire etc.

With all these major companies offering one or more forms of cloud storage, one could only but begin to see the future in cloud computing and storage.

4 Notable giant tech companies of our time that have been swallowed by others

In this era of technological evolution and highly competitive tech market that we all can attest to, I have a single sentence for tech companies “If as a tech company with products and you dare to lag now, you and your products will be swallowed”. Hope the message is clear?

There are many tech companies out there that have once ruled the world with their varieties of products, but because of the stiffness in competition after falling short in some aspects of their technology they get completely swallowed by their rivals.

 notable tech



Although, sometimes it is surprising to see kings turning into servants within a twinkle of an eye; in other words for any tech company (other companies too) that want its products to stand the taste of time, then there should be no avenue for loopholes. If any loophole arises, the company should be rest assured that others will take advantage of that to dominate and leave them reeling behind.

Without wasting any time, the 4 notable tech giants of our time that have been found wanting are;

  1.  MySpace – This can be classified under social media Tech Company. MySpace in the past, founded by Chris Dewolfe and Tom Anderson was a social networking service that enjoyed virtually everything, ranging from fame, monopoly (low competition) and patronage. It grew with millions of subscribers across the globe especially users from the US. But Just as the saying goes ‘no condition is permanent ‘

What then happened to MySpace in this present era?

Exactly what I was saying...just at the sight of Facebook, MySpace went hiding. MySpace could not withstand the force that Facebook came along with into the Social Media World.

You may read: 5 major challenges/Problem and solution facing Internet entrepreneurs/business such as blogging, affiliate marketing, Multi-level marketing, forex trading,


Facebook owned by one of the youngest billionaire of all-time Mark Zuckerberg, came into existence, saw everything (loopholes) that was going on in MySpace and other existing social media networks and then conquered them completely within a short period of time.


Unlike MySpace, with Facebook, we are no longer counting in millions of subscribers but in Billions of Active Subscribers. At this point, I don’t need say much about Facebook because we all know what Facebook is made up of so let’s jump to the next one.


2. 2go – This is a social mobile chat company pioneered out from South-Africa. 5 years ago this mobile chat app went viral especially in the sub-Saharan African regions and the world at large. Its growth took everybody by surprise and it even got to a point that if you are not having this mobile app on your mobile device, it will seem you are out of the world.

You may also read: Android Tablet is just an overrated and oversized piece of tech gadget with no additional value to what is obtainable with smartphones-why?


Even at all that, what happened to 2go at the sight of Whatsapp and BBM?
It was either 2go started lagging in some areas or as results of pressure from those two, they succumbed and paved way. Today Whatsapp dwarfs 2go in all ramification, and I don’t even know if people still use 2go for chatting.


3. Yahoo – Yes Yahoo! What we have known for years as world number one web and e-mail solution Technology Company and that have really stood the taste of time in web dominance but all of a sudden decided to soft-pedal on the long run.

Immediately Yahoo decided to release their legs from the throttle, thealmighty G accelerated and over-took them without even looking back.

In the past, how many people know of G-Mail?


They only know more of Yahoo Mail and a bit of Hotmail. But with the lagging nature of Yahoo still in recent times, Google who have been playing their cards well have no other choice than to capitalize and turn themselves King of the web in both Search Engine and E-mail services.

Must read: Credit cards VS Debit cards-payment card technology used in bank transactions

It is sad that Yahoo have felt to realize themselves even in this present time. Trying to log into Yahoo account with mobile devices these days have always been thug of war and the qualities of services recently have been dismal, I must confess.


4. Blackberry – This is under the mobile tech company. Please who doesn’t know here that Blackberry once ruled the mobile tech world in smartphones categories? At this point I felt like composing a song titled “Goodbye Blackberry”.

After enjoying much dominance in the smartphone world, blackberry device today is seen as Sinking Ship. The big question here remains;

Why is Blackberry going underground?
I think I know the answer. It was a pity though for blackberry, that as a result of combined forces from Android and Apple and it seemed they both intrigued to push blackberry out of the market.
Recommended:Guide on Jumia Online shopping process.

Although you can never blame Android and Apple for Blackberry woes, they just came into the market with their style, and Blackberry now rat, seeing two big cats…I think they only option blackberry had was to take-off knowing well they are not ready for the combat.

Not only that Blackberry showed Android and Apple their Achilles hill, those other two fired straight in there and succeeded in killing and burying blackberry.

I repeat and leave you with these words “In this modern day, any tech company with products and dare lag then the fate that befell MySpace, 2go, Yahoo and Blackberry most likely is going to befall them too.”


Over to you, I know there are other tech companies facing the same fate today, if you know any and will love to mention, kindly use the comment box below to remind us and also share your opinion on that.

Do I Need to Root my Android Phone before I Can Tweak/Change IMEI?

This question has generated lots of controversies in the android IMEI tweaking world and lots of people have rather guessed than providing a genuine and convincing answer to that.

Some folks will tell you that you need to root your device before you can tweak/change IMEI while some will tell you that you don’t need rooting.

We know that these days because of the demerits of rooting android phones, some that are not technically savvy have always entertain fears in rooting their devices and they prefer not to root but are interested in tweaking IMEI.

If you are new to android IMEI tweaking and still do not understand what is going on here, you can help yourself for better comprehension of IMEI tweaking.

 root andriod phone


Now let’s continue, for those that at least know or understand some level of IMEI tweaking and have been following us here, you should know by now that when we talk about android IMEI tweaking, we are referring mostly to that of MTK devices as the IMEI of other non-MTK devices cannot easily be tweaked.

Most methods you see around that talks about tweaking of non-MTK devices only mask the IMEI buy does not actually change it.

Must Read: How to unroot your Kingroot rooted android device

Although some other categories of non-MTK android devices like the Spreadtrum android devices can also have their IMEI easily tweaked as can be seen in tweaking Itel devices.

Coming down now to the true answer to the above question that has been bothering most of you that really want to tweak android IMEI.

I want to sound it clear here that in most cases, android IMEI tweaking has nothing to do with rooting or no rooting; if you want to tweak IMEI, you can go ahead to tweak regardless of whether your android is rooted or not and you will have your android IMEI tweaked without any hassle.
Those are all you need to know about tweaking android IMEI and/or rooting at the same time.

Root all your android devices now

By now we believe you know the importance of rooting your android devices. As hacking is to Symbian, jail-breaking is to Apple devices, so is rooting to Android devices.


Rooting is just a way of giving your Android devices Super/King or root access for you now to be able to perform wonders with your android devices that you were restricted from before.

Don't miss: Do I Need to Root my Android Phone before I Can Tweak/Change IMEI?

Our aim here is to guide you on how to root that your stubborn android devices with the two best methods of rooting droids.
 root device


The first method that we will be discussing does not require any use of PC, but just with your Android device alone, while the second method will require you to use a PC, and so the choice is totally yours. And if by any means, the first method fails to serve your purpose, then use the second method.

Must read: 3 types of SIM sizes that we have today: the Mini, Micro and Nano SIM cards and their differences

Without even wasting a single time, let’s go straight to the business of the day.

Method 1: The use of Framaroot APK software

Follow the steps below and root your android with Framaroot;

= => You need Framaroot for your smartphone, simply download it here and install on your android device

= => With your android device, go to Settings>>Security>>then tick/check Unknown sources

= => You need to enable USB Debugging on your device, to do so for Android version 4.1 (Ice-cream Sandwich) and below, go to Settings>>Developers Option>>then tick/check USB Debugging. For Android version 4.2.2 (Jelly Bean) and above, the Developer Option is hidden so to enable USB Debugging on those Android versions go to Settings>>About Phone>>then tap on Build Number about 8 to 10 times till the Developer Option comes up and you will then tick/check the USB Debugging.


= => Now go and open your installed Framaroot, it should prompt you to installSuberUser, tap the button to install it and a box will come up with three other options of Install SuberUser, Install SU and Unroot to choose from.


= => Choose the Install SU option and you will see something like boromirpops up, just tap on it and wait for some seconds, after which you will get a reply to reboot your device.


= => Reboot your device as requested and you should see SuperUser installed on your device signifying that you have successfully rooted that your android device.


You should note that from the above process above, if by any means the Install SU option fails, then repeat the process and choose the other Install SuberUser option and you should see something like agorir pops up which you should tap on to continue the rooting process and you should be prompted too to reboot your device if all goes well.

That is all for the Framaroot method of rooting your droid, now over to the second method.

Method 2: Rooting your Android devices with Rootgenius

As we have said before that here you will need a PC, so follow the steps below to root your droid with Rootgenius;

= => You need Rootgenius, so simply download it here and install it on your PC

= => You have to enable USB Debugging on your Android device as described in the 1st method above, so go up and lookup the how to do so

= => Now launch the Rootgenius app on your PC

= => Connect your Android device (with USD Debugging enabled) to your PC with a USB chord

= => Once your Android device is successfully connected to your PC, Rootgenius will automatically detect it.

= => You should see the Root Now button on the open Rootgenius app on your PC, click on it to commence the rooting process.

= => Wait as Rootgenius perform its task of rooting your android device, and within some time the rooting will be completed and you should now haveKingUser app automatically installed on your Andorid device.


Don’t miss: Android Tablet is just an overrated and oversized piece of tech gadget with no additional value to what is obtainable with smartphones-why?


Now check to see if KingUser has been installed on your Android, and you can restart your phone after the process. If you see KingUser app, it means your android device has been successfully rooted.

The two methods of rooting android devices explained above are capable of rooting almost all the Android devices that you know. And it is important to note that rooting voids the warranty of your device.


Finally, the whole processes are easily reversible, if by any means you decide that you no longer want your phone rooted, you can unroot it by opening KingUser on your device and removing root permission.

Android Tablet is just an overrated and oversized piece of tech gadget with no additional value to what is obtainable with smartphones-why?


Tablet PC came as results of most smartphone manufacturers wanting to offer something quite different especially in screen size to the teeming numbers of tech geeks out there.

Many people today are of the opinion that acquisition of tablet in addition to your android smartphone is absolutely unnecessary, while some sees it as a typical waste of resources and ostentatious display of wealth.


And again to some, Android Tablet is just an overrated and oversized piece of tech gadget with no additional value to what is obtainable with smartphones. check out the Infinix Zero vs Tecno L7

But one thing is certain here, that everybody is entitled with his/her opinion and contrary to the saying that what is good for the goose is also good for the gander, your take about tablet PC and that of others might differ completely.


Another question or form of argument concerning tablet PC and smartphones might arise as regards to their popularity.


From my personal point of view, when talking about the popularity of Tablets and Smartphones, it is quite clear that tablet is no way near that of smartphone and smartphones are more widely spread and more adorned than tablet PC.


Now, going by the saying that one man’s meat could well turn out to be another’s poison, what is your own take about tablet PCs from smartphone perspective?

Recommended: where are the blackberry users, Do People Still Use Blackberry?


Do you ever think or want to see a situation whereby the production of tablet PC be abolished?

Does tablet serve out your personal need beyond what smartphones can or do offer you?

Or are you of the same opinion that tablets PC are just some form of bogus and overrated tech device of even lesser important to a smartphone?

3 types of SIM sizes that we have today: the Mini, Micro and Nano SIM cards and their differences


Up till this very moment, many are yet to come to terms with the differences between Mini SIM, Micro SIM and Nano SIM cards.

If you are one of them, I bet you that you are not alone on that, because recently, I have received series of request from different folks asking me to help them differentiate the 3 set of SIM.

Some said they thought the Micro SIM is the same as the Nano SIM, while others ask for the difference between standard SIM and Mini SIM. So you can see the level of confusion constantly arising from the 3 types of SIM sizes that we have today.

 3 types of sims


This was why I decided to use this opportunity to exactly differentiate the 3 sized of SIM in order to end the confusion that constantly arises.

You can read: How to Detect a Fast and Slow Smartphone Power Charger


Let’s start with the Mini SIM…the Mini SIM card size is the first and most common type of SIM amongst the 3 that you know, also regarded as the Standard SIM card size, it measures about 25mm in length and 15mm wide. The contact network provider chip is positioned in such a manner that when the SIM Card is held upright, with the chip side facing the eyes, the chip appears to be positioned at the lower left hand side of the entire Card.

Then for the Micro SIM….this is a smaller type of the Mini SIM card, almost half in length of the Mini SIM and slightly narrower in width. Here, the network provider chip appears to be centralized with just small extra meat of the card showing at the four side of the chip.

Finally for the Nano SIM….this appears to be the smallest of the 3. In the case of the Nano SIM, there is no extra visible meat apart from the network provider chip which covers the entire surface. In order words the size of the Nano is exactly the size of the chip.

The Standard SIM Card size (Mini SIM) can be trimmed into Micro and Nano SIM card sizes with a pair of scissors or special tool for cutting SIM cards.

On the other hand, the Micro and Nano SIM card sizes can be made to take the size of the Standard SIM Cards by making use of special Standard SIM adapters or by placing them on the clipped out frame (placeholder) from the Standard SIM.

Formally, it was only the Standard SIMs that was normally being used, but as technology advances, manufactures begin to produce devices that make use of the Micro and Nano SIM card sizes.

How to Detect a Fast and Slow Smartphone Power Charger


Most Smartphone users often desire to see their devices charge up faster after the battery must have run down and when plugged into a power outlet.


But sometimes the reverse is the case as some smartphones when plugged takes almost a whole day to charge from flat battery to full, and which often raise the question; why do some phones charge faster than others?

The reason(s) might not be far fetched as some of you already know, and the two major and most common reasons why some phone batteries take very long hours to charge up and others require only minimal time is based on the smartphone inbuilt charging technology and the phone’s power charger (charger head).

 smartphone


The both of them, if put into consideration by smartphone companies on the course of manufacturing their devices, will definitely result in devices that charge up very fast – let’s say 1h 30min to charge fully a fully drained modern smartphone batteries.

How to Easily Un-root Bricked Android After Rooting


But most times, we don’t usually see nor have both pieces of technology come to play, and it is either you have only the phone charger with the fast charge technology while the devices itself is built with conventional charging technology and vice versa; and even on many occasions both the phone charger and the phone itself are built without any fast charging technology.

No doubt that today, phone manufacturers are beginning to embrace the fast charging technologies in an increased rate unlike before, and it is now easier to see smartphones with inbuilt quick charge technologies and quick charge chargers.


Having said all that and back to the major topic of discussion, today we are going to show you how you can easily detect fast and slow charging smartphone chargers.


Remember that we said that it is not only the phone charger that determines the fastness of charging your phone batteries, however with fast phone charger, the faster the charging than when you are charging with slow charger.


Without further ado, here we go; the idea behind the whole thing has not gotten into a rocket science technology as to start saying that it is only the science inclined students will understand how to read the power ratings for smartphone chargers.

It just a little visual practical physics that you will all understand and now to know a fast phone charger or a slow phone charger, this is what to do;


= =>just pick up your phone charger now and look at the output (not the input) power ratings.


And these are what you should expect to know whether your phone charger or other phone chargers are fast chargers or slow chargers;


On a general note and what you see as normal charger is when you look at the charger and you see the power output ratings as 5V ----1A or it can also be written as 5V----1000mA.


The interpretation of that is that the charger is giving out 5volts (voltage) of electricity with 1Amp (Ampere) Current of electricity; in the second case that you might see it written as 5V ----1000mA, it is just the same thing as the interpretation above, the 1000mA is the same as 1A, the small m just stands for milli (one 1000th) which is 1/1000.


Don’t Miss: How to make Innjoo Fire battery charge fully to 100%


Now for a slow phone charger, since most smartphones output voltage is 5V,whenever you look at the phone charger power ratings and see anything lower than 1000mA on the current side, then you should automatically know that you are dealing with a slow charger; you might see it written like this 5V ----750mA– just know that this is a slow charger power rating – anything lower than1000mA is slow charger.


Finally for the Fast phone chargers, When you look at the output power ratings of your phone charger and see something like this 5V --- 2A or it can be written as 5V ----2000mA then you should know that you have a fast phone charger – in other words, anything higher than 1A (1000mA) is considered a faster phone charger; and if you can even see 3000mA (very uncommon) the fastest the charger will be.

So those are the simple ways you can easily tell whether you have a fast, normal or slow phone charger.


Now you can just pick up your phone charger and check (experiment) and tell us below the comment box if your phone charger is a fast charger or a slow one.

Exclusive: Hands On and All You Need to Know About the Infinix Hot Note Pro

I have been following closely the obscure reviews by many about the features of the Infinix Hot Note Pro, but I noticed that it is either that those that have been carrying out these reviews have not laid their hands on the device or did not understand some of the features of the phone even if they are truly in possession of it, and therefore could not unravel the key questions posed by intending buyers. where are the blackberry users, Do People Still Use Blackberry?

Even as the Infinix Hot Note Pro is now almost a week old in the market, many of its features still becloud the minds of many.

In that vein and with the Infinx Hot Note pro clearly on hand, we have decided to give an exclusive and unbiased review on every key thing you need to know about this Infinix new baby.


 infinix


We will be kicking off immediately by first clarifying all those key features of the phone that have been confusing many and have been generating lots of controversies and heated arguments about the Infinix Hot Note Pro.
Must Read: The Infinix Hot Note Pro-ANOTHER VARIANT

Now let’s start with the camera; I know lots of mistakes both from Jumia and Infinix the OEM on their platforms concerning the camera pixel of this phone.

Jumia advert video that says back camera is 13MP was made in error, because the true camera pixel of the Infinx Hot Note Pro is 8MP back and 2MP front shutter – hope this part is now clear?

Coming down to whether the device has external expandable memory, I want to state clearly here that Infinix Hot Note Pro has external expandable MicroSD slot to the tune of another 32GB together with its internal memory of 32GB, you can now easily say that it adds up to 64GB for the device, and yes the RAM is 2GB.

Again, I don’t know whether many people still don’t know the difference between Mini SIM, Micro SIM and Nano SIM, and please if you are still confused about these 3 set of SIM, then carefully read Mini, Micro and Nano SIM in order to save yourself from further confusion.

 infiix

After all said, the Infinix Hot Note Pro just like its younger brother the Hot Notecame with 1 Micro SIM slot and 1 Nano SIM slot and both SIM slots can make use of 3G networks which you can easily interchange from the mobile network sub-menu without needing to manually remove back cover to interchange the SIMs.

I have heard lots of people talking about the Inifinix Hot Note Pro on whether it has any form of tampered screen guard, and I kept wondering in the imagination of those saying that the main screen is bared.

I don’t think Infinxi will be that dumb to leave the main screen of the Infinix Hot Note Pro unprotected at all, because almost all modern android phones came with some sort of main screen protection.

Even it might not necessarily be Corning Gorilla Glass, the Infinix Hot Note Pro has a thin film like glass protection that cannot easily be peeled off unlike that of many other phones, but the screen shield is there, unless you are looking forward to adding another making it dual screen protection.

Also Read: Is ARM-Cortex Also a Mobile Processor/System on Chip?


If you cannot see the light skin glass protection of the Infinix Hot Note Pro, then use a microscope or binoculars and you will see it since maybe you are still finding it difficult to notice it.

Then coming down to the 3 soft keys below the screen, just like the way the phone in question has no notification lights, those 3 keys too are not lighted on tapping.

Does the phone support OTA updates and OTG?


Yes it has OTA update and also supports USB OTG

Does the non-removable 4000mAh battery truly charge fast with the phone in-built quick charge technology?


Yes the quick charge technology is highly functional and it takes about two to two and half hours to charge the phone from flat to full i.e. from 0% to 100%.

Don’t Miss: Microsoft Project Spartan Browser is Fully Microsoft Edge


Before I forget, some are claiming that while making call with the Infinix Hot Note Pro, that the speaker is not loud enough, but I want to chip in here that unless those people that are complaining about that have little ear defect or their particular devices are faulty, the call/receive volume/sound of the Infinix Hot Note Pro is loud and clear.



Then talking about music play on the Infinix Hot Note Pro, both when the device is on loudspeaker and earpiece speaker, I can assure you that the device is not the best in sound quality and lack some organized Digital Dolby Surround sounds.

What again do you want to know about the Infinix Hot Note Pro?


Ok, about the 8MP camera image quality?

Yes it is clear and even at night it still tries to capture some good quality images.


And the phone doesn't get hot like Infinix Hot when you play games for long and use 3G network, it only gets warm as any other normal phone does.

Can the phone be rooted and can its IMEI be tweaked?

Yes it is 100% and easily rootable and you can also easily tweak the IMEI; to root, use King Root, and to tweak the IMEI, use Mobile Uncle.

Don’t expect to see Infinix Hot Note Pro written on the pack when you order for this device, as what you will see is only Infinix Hot Note, the same with its immediate younger brother and even their model number is the same, which isX551.
Finally, the Infinix Hot Note Pro is currently selling at Jumia for N27,000 after selling for N26,000 throughout last week that it was launched and we still expect further and slight increase in price in the coming weeks.
