Nokia Lumia 95 Features and Specifications

2011 gonna end with a surprise gift from Nokia, the Lumia 95, concept phone with a 20MP camera!

Nokia Lumia 95 is believed to be the revival of old, but much popular Nokia phone, Nokia N95.

Nokia Lumia 95 is a phone which runs Windows 8 with a 4GB of RAM and a 1.8GHz Core 2 Duo mobile processor, made by Intel with x86 architecture.Being a Windows 8 phone, Lumia 95 is capable of running windows executable files(.exe), and the gaming experience is believed to be at its peak. A Graphic Card from AMD, AMD Radeon HD Mobile will further enhance the gaming experience of Lumia 95.

The camera unit, as mentioned earlier, is composed of a great 20.3 Mega Pixel Carl Zeiss optics with LED and Xenon Flash, capable of recording 1080p videos better than any existing mobile device. Also, there is a front facing camera dedicated for video calling. The Lumia 95 also give us a message that, you no longer carry a cam-coder at any cost!

Nokia Lumia 95 design consist of a sliding keyboard, just as in N900 or N97, and the screen size is expected to be larger than 4 inch. Lumia 95 is powered with Nokia Clear BlackDisplay, with HD resolution. I personally think that the ClearBlack technology is even better than Super AMOLED, which is used by Galaxy S2. The former Lumia 800's display is much brighter than Galaxy S2.

Nokia Lumia 95 Price

For the time being there is no information about the price of Nokia Lumia 95. You should wait, at least, till 2013 in order to get a clear picture about Lumia 95.

WiFi Tethering - Turn your phone into WiFi Hotspot [Android-iOS-Symbian]

2011-12-15T07:36:00.000-08:00

What is WiFi ?
WiFi (Wireless Fidelity) is a technology which allow connecting electronics devices such as PC, Smart Phone, Tablets etc wirelessly within a specific range.The most common use of WiFi is to connect WiFi enabled devices to internet via WiFi Hotspot(Access point).That means a WiFi enabled devices such as a laptop or a smartphone can connect to internet, if it is within the range of a WiFi hotspot.

To be more specific about Smartphones, most of the modern mobile phones comes with inbuilt WiFi unit. Such phones can connect to internet without the need of any mobile carrier, for example from a public WiFi hotspot in the airport or shopping mall.The WiFi unit in a smartphone will do the two most basic functions, one of which is receiving WiFi signals and the other, transmitting a WiFi signal.

What is WiFi Tethering or How to turn your phone into portable WiFi Hotspot?

As we said earlier, a smartphone can both transmit and receive WiFi signals.If we can get connect to internet via another WiFi device (hotspot), logically the converse should also be possible.

Yes it is possible, your phone can serve as a WiFi hotspot, which provide high speed internet to the devices surrounds it, and is portable too, because of its mobility.Once you setup WiFi hotspot on your phone, all other devices including Laptops, PC, Tablets and other Smartphones can connect to internet through it.

All you need is a 2G, 3G or a 4G mobile data plan, and a WiFi tether enabled smartphone.

WiFi tethering is possible in almost all platforms such as Android, iOS, and Symbian, with a few modifications in its network settings.Below is the description of tethering settings of each platform.
Remember, if you turned on WiFi tethering in a public place, every people including strangers will have access to your phones hotspot. I suggest you to password protect your hotspot (this option is available in "Advanced Settings"), so that no strangers can access your hotspot.

1. WiFi Tether for Android

Android devices with WiFi, can enable WiFi tethering very easily.But it should be noted that in some android devices the Network (such as AT&T) may hide tethering settings, in such phones you may need to root your android to re-enable them. The new Samsung galaxy S2 is a good example, since some of it doesn't support tethering until you root it. So i suggest you to root your phone (only if it is legal in your region) first if the settings described just below is not visible.

Steps to Enable WiFi Tether for Android (Taking Android 2.3 as example):

Go to the "Settings" from menu
Choose "Wireless and Networks" -> "Tethering and Portable hotspot"
Two Options will appear - "USB Tethering" and "Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot Settings", from which we select the second one.
Press "OK".Then check "Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot". Change the Configuration settings if you like so.
That's all.Now your android is a portable WiFi hotspot!

2. WiFi Tethering in iOS

iOS is Apples's operating system which is used in Apple products such as iPhone, iPad, iPod etc.
Beginning from iOS 4.3, it officially support WiFi tethering. It is as simple as we enable it in android.
Steps to Enable WiFi Tether for iOS

Open "Settings" from menu.
Go to "General"->"Network"->"Personal Hotspot" and switch it on.
Now you can connect any other devices to your hotspot.The default password for connection is abcdefgh

3. In Symbian

Unfortunately there is no official support for WiFi tethering in Symbian yet. So you need to install third party apps to enable WiFi tethering.

Joikuspot is one such application which make it possible.A light version of Joikuspot called Joikuspot Light is available free for download on Nokia store.
A premium version which can create secure hotspots with vpn support is also available there.
It is easy to create hotspots with Joikuspot, Just open Joikuspot application, select a working access point and connect!

Cluzee & Vlingo - iPhone Siri Alternative for Android & Symbian

2011-12-05T06:29:00.001-08:00

What is iPhone Siri?

Siri is an innovative application offered by apple iPhone (beginning from iPhone 4S), which lets your phone to do things, by simply telling what to do. If you need to send a text to your friend, just tell it to Siri, it will automatically convert your voice to text and will send it.Siri uses most of the built in apps and let you operate them by voice.You can Search internet, Schedule meetings, Search for location,Directions, Traffic and much more things can be done by using your voice.The most surprising feature of iPhone Siri is that we can talk to it as simple as we would to a person.It not only understand "what you say", but also "what you mean".
Just tell Siri to "Wake me up at 7.00" or "Wake me in 7hrs", Siri will set the alarm for you.
Tell siri to "Find pizza" it will list all pizza places around you, and will suggest the most appropriate one, based on your location and time.
In short Siri is an intelligent partner who understand what you need, what you mean, and do it at the right time.

Cluzee - Siri alternative for Android

So far we have discussed about the features of Siri. Now lets come to the point, is there a Siri alternative for Android? Let me declare the fact that, there is no official Siri alternative for Android available yet!.
For the time being, what we can do is to find the most appropriate app which look alike Siri. Being the most popular mobile operating system with billions of apps downloads in each month, there should be at least one app which satisfy your quest.Yes it is the "Cluzee". Cluzee is the latest android app to fulfill the voice control gap in Android.You may download it for free from the android market. Its clear that Cluzee is not as god as Siri. Because the 'intelligence part' will not work as good as it works in Siri.
What Cluzee have is a list of pre-written commands which it can understand.We have to talk to Cluzee according to the pre-defined format of commands.Though we can do many things with Cluzee such as sending text, reading mail, notes management, personalized deal reports, to track your diet etc.
As a third party app, Cluzee will find it difficult to interact with the Calender and Contacts apps on the phone, though i am sure it will get better over time.So i suggest you, never leave your android simply because of Siri!

Vlingo for Symbian

The Vlingo app is available for most of the operating systems including iOS, Android, Blackberry & Symbian.Though why i place it under Symbian is because, the latest Anna & Belle updates from Nokia has the Vlingo app pre-installed. Just like Cluzee, Vlingo also can understand a set of pre-defined commands.Sending text, reading mail, update social networks, find businesses etc are also possible with Vlingo.You may download Vlingo from their official site.

2011-09-20T08:11:00.001-07:00

According to the sources, “Samsung is planning to reveal the Samsung Galaxy S III (3) at the 2012 Mobile World Congress in Barcelona.Samsung will try to get a
simultaneous worldwide release for the Galaxy S III mid 2012.”

- The specifications for the SGSIII are of course subject to change, but are Samsung developed 2.0GHz quad-core CPU (no codename given), 1.5gb RAM, 32gb internal memory (with sd card slot), and a 4.65 inch screen. A new display called Super AMOLED III is being developed specifically for the phone (SGS had Super AMOLED, SGS II had Super AMOLED Plus, SGS III has Super AMOLED III) with 1280x1024 resolution, giving the phone a ppi of 352, which they emphasized that 352ppi will make it the highest ppi mobile phone.
- The reason for no demo phone was that the screen technology was still in the final stages of design and production of them have notstarted.
- The device is 9mm thick, has a metal and glass body (a really clean, shiny look to it in the pictures), has a 2250mAh battery, 10 megapixel camera and is capable of shooting 1080p video at 60 frames per second.
- The phone will come with an inbuilt NFC chip.
- The phone will have Androids latest Ice Cream Sandwich software and an all new TouchWiz 5 which has been in co-development with Google
during the development of the Galaxy Nexus, so according to the Samsung representatives, it isn’t as “intrusive to Android” as previous TouchWiz versions were. It seems TouchWiz will play a minor role and only have little improvements to ICS. It won’t control the user experience.
- One of the reasons why they’re not going with a full TouchWiz experience is for a few reasons, one being that the ICSexperience is very user friendly already and also it will also Samsung to update software on their phones at a faster rate than they have in the past.
- Price wasn’t revealed, but for all the specs of the phone, I’m guessing it’ll be very expensive!

Installing Java applications / games that require access to an external source, either the phone memory, flash card, Internet or cell, you encounter a problem when the phone require user permission to access the application to do something.

For example if we are downloading a file with unsigned opera mini or ucbrowser it will ask for permission to read or write simultaneously.

But if it is signed there will be no such problems, just like sis app.

Here is a simple legit procedure to sign jar files:

Upload your .jar file to any free file hosting service and copy the direct link.( i recoment http://willhostforfood.com/ )
