Taiwan's HTC unveiled a new flagship smartphone in its domestic market Thursday with revamped designs which analysts said may boost the company's sluggish sales against rivals Apple and Samsung.

LG Optimus G Pro: Best of MWC 2013

One of the first things I noticed about the Optimus G Pro was how thin it was. Though this keeps it lightweight and sleek, it also made it slightly cumbersome to hold with one hand and navigate with my fingers. There were a lot of times when I used my thumb to click on something on the far right of the screen only to have the bottom part of my thumb accidentally select and open something on the right. It's still an attractive handset, however, and I think it's a step up from both the LG Intuition and the original Optimus G.

Android Developers: How to Earn Genuinely with Apps

I was wondering if any app developer can earn a good amount of money with his apps. I myself have a lot of apps on Android Platform but all of them are free apps.

We all work hard to develop a app for our users and then we give it for free, what does it give us in return----popularity (may be)---- But what if we give our app as free and also earn some bucks out of it--"think"--.

Yes I am not joking its true we can earn with our free apps not by giving adds. Giving ads take a lot of time to make some decent amount of money. But here is a really great site that pays you just for downloading its sdk and integrating it with your apps. You would be thinking that your privacy and app would be at risk but feel free as this site is a secured site and I have used it and making decent income.

Here is the site http://startapp.com/rfijpur

And you make a good amount of money as your users download your app, Give it a try and tell me your response, If you have any query you can comment.

Choose Your Own Hardware and OS of Your Smartphones

Now Indian buyers can choose the hardware and OS of their Smartphones, weather it may be the Popular Android or the non hackable Ubuntu or popular browser Firefox OS. With the upcoming Android alternatives like Ubuntu Phone OS or Firefox OS, what if you get a chance to choose the hardware and operating system for your smartphone? Sounds fun right? Africa-based Limitless Electronics previously, launched its products in a unique way, where the company allowed the customers to decide what hardware and operating system they would want their tablet to have. We are expecting the company to do a similar launch in India and users may get to choose between operating systems like Ubuntu Phone OS, Android and Firefox OS as well.

While nowadays, companies are not keen on offering multiple options as far as mobile OS is concerned but Limitless interestingly offers users the opportunity to custom-select their OS as well as hardware specs. Limitless Electronics has decided to start taking pre-order for its products from next month.

The company plans to include not just tablets but all types of high-end luxury devices and electronics. Limitless is known for its Re|act and Fleet brand of smartphone, tablet and Smart TVs. Limitless Electronics, run by Cameroonian Tony Smith, has taken hold of the consumer electronics industry in Africa.

The Fleet brand devices are designed for advanced durability to provide long lasting and reliable performance in all types of conditions. Many Fleet devices are outfitted with technology and hardware that offer military-grade protection against exposure to water, wind, dust, shock, and more.

Limitless will be up against the existing line-up of domestic brands like Micromax, Karbonn, Spice and Lava in the country. But it will be interesting to see whether Limitless can compete with the heavyweights as well.

With pre-orders slated to start from next month onwards, Limitless is expected to launch its products officially in March.

Tips and Tricks for your new Smartphones

Did you bought a  new smartphone but wondering what to do with it??

I also had the same question when I got a new Samsung Galaxy Note as a gift from Samsung. I was lucky that I got it just the day before Christmas and so Samsung was like a Santa Claus for me and  my Note came at afternoon and till the next day I was just looking around what to do with this new Smartphone.????

Then I started in a queue, listened music,then called my friend,then messages and finally end up with the most addictive thing GAMES....

But this was not it..I would have done a lot of wonders with this new smartphones, which I did later and discovered some of them, here is a list of 10 Tips and tricks for all of you that you can do with your brand new Android Phone..

1. You are advised to sign in using your Google account when you first turn on your Android phone. It means that you have to use the same details as you use while logging into your Gmail account. After you sync your phone with your Gmail account, you can access your browsing history, calendar, email, etc.

2. You will also get an option of taking a back up of your phone's data to your Google Account. This will help you in cases where you lose or have to reset your phone. You can quickly retrieve your settings with this back up.

3. While downloading a new app from Google Play store, don't miss out on checking the box that says 'Allow automatic updating'. This will allow your apps to be automatically updated to the latest version without asking permission. It will save your time.

4. With Google Map, you can store maps offline. So, with an Android smartphone in hand, you don't need to waste your data plan while navigating. All you have to do is when you are connected to Wi-Fi, simply open Google Maps, select the area you want to store offline, tap the three dots at the bottom right of your screen, and tap 'Make available offline'. This will do the job for you.

5. You can sync your Android phone with popular social networks like Facebook via the settings app, The more networks you add, the easier it will become for you to share stuff like photos.

6. Make the most of widgets available in your Android smartphone. Widgets are the apps that live on your home screen and help in providing real-time information like news and weather. Just tap and drag the widgets on your screen from your phone's Widgets menu and keep yourself updated all the time. Some of the handy widgets that come with your Android phone allow you to control Wi-Fi, brightness, and other basic functions right from your home screen.

7. Though Google's app store is good enough to serve you with great apps, but if you are looking for more, change your security settings and allow your phone to install apps from unknown sources. It means that you can also download apps you find on websites or alternative app stores like Amazon's. But we advise that you should not get carried away with this option in hand. Be careful because you are allowing unknown apps on your phone that can make your device more prone to malware.

8. Your new Android smartphone has a voice-controlled assistant called Google Now which acts like a search tool. You can use your new 'assistant' to remind you of appointments, find sports scores and get you directions.

9. You can manage multiple apps at a time with your Android smartphone. Just tap the key on your phone. It lets you juggle between open apps.

10. Wanna delete an app from your home screen? Just tap and hold the app for a second and drag it to the 'Remove' button.

Android Malware will Increase in 2013

The year 2013 will be predictably with problems for Android OS as the Malware for this OS is expected to increase in 2013. There are already so many issues related to malware in android and according to ESET it is said to increase in the coming year.

This time ESET researchers focused on malware for Android OS, as the market share of Android mobile phones have grown significantly.During the first quarter of 2012, according to IDC statistics, the Google OS saw a year-over-year rise of 145 percent in market share. Furthermore, Juniper in its whitepaper “Banking Anytime Anywhere.” predicts that next year, the number of users accessing banking services from their smartphones will rise to 530 million people. According to the same study, in 2011 there were only 300 million individuals, who accessed banks from their phones.

ESET points out to another trend – spread of malware via removable storage devices is dipping globally in favour of the use of an intermediary in order to attract new victims. Simply speaking, instead of compromising system through infected flash drives and other removable media, bad guys compromise web servers to host malware and then sending out the hyperlinks leading the users to the malware.

Although throughout 2012 all detections related to INF/Autorun malware family, variety of malware using the file autorun.inf on Windows computers as a way of compromising a PC, have been steadily decreasing in India, this threat continues dominating. That means USB flash drives are still an effective way of compromising computers. One of the reasons, according to ESET researchers, is that Indian users are still prone to using pirated software including OS itself along with pirated security software if at all the latter is installed on the system. Moreover, a very basic security practice as scanning removable media with security software is ignored by majority of Indian computer users.

So guys be up to date with your antivirus and keep in touch with the new malwares coming in 2013, you may be one victim of that..Be prepared to avoid any inconvenience.
