The reason why the BlackBerry Messenger was adopted to Android

noreply@blogger.com (iipz) — Thu, 6 Oct 2011 12:22:00 +0700

Techradar posting the pictures and they also claim there is one of the employees who remain anonymous RIM says no mistaking the BlackBerry Messenger apps will run on Android. Similarly, as quoted by TG Daily on Thursday October 6, 2011.

As we known BlackBerry Messenger apps for Android or who is known as a fuel, is the instant messaging platform that is devoted to the BlackBerry alone.

But now, there are rumors that RIM will bring the fuel to other mobile operating systems, namely Android for the first time. This is another step in the acceptance of RIM who could no longer endure holding the instant messenger application exclusively on his own platform.

Nokia also suffered a similar fate with RIM. Where's the Symbian operating system which only owned Nokia quickly eroded after the iPhone and Android smartphones entering the market? It seemed like a huge failure, making it difficult to act to keep up with environmental change and now customers have trouble finding Nokia mobile phones in every store in the United States.

As we all know Nokia decided its partnership with Microsoft to bring Windows 7 Phone handset as the future.

Apparently, RIM should make cooperation with partners that are currently being loved in the smartphone market in order not to experience something similar to Nokia. Partners are most likely in cooperation with RIM is that Google and Android.

Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 review

noreply@blogger.com (iipz) — Wed, 22 Jun 2011 13:20:00 +0700

Android phone reviews: The Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1, much like its Limited Edition sibling that we reviewed last month, is ever so slightly thinner than the Apple iPad 2, a slate that most sane individuals and competitors, for that matter would confess is the android market leader today.

Galaxy Tab Performance and battery life
While the internals remain the same here as on the Limited Edition build 1GHz Tegra 2, 1280x800 resolution display, front- and rear-facing cameras, something's changed with Android 3.1 operating system. Google claimed that the newest build of Honeycomb would perform even faster than 3.0, and in practice, things did seem to operate at a subtly brisker pace. The Galaxy Tab 10.1 Limited Edition which shipped with an admittedly wonky version of Android 3.0) managed to hit an average of 1,970 within Quadrant benchmark a standard benching tool that was also used in our G-Slate and Xoom. After running the same test five times on the Tab 10.1, we hit an average score of 1,540. The upside is that Android 3.1 doesn't seem to have a negative impact on battery life; the downside is that Android 3.1 doesn't seem to be any more power efficient than Android 3.0.

Galaxy Tab Hardware and design
The consumer model is a spitting image of the LE variant, save for the motif on the rear; the one you'll pick up this month has a glossy white plastic rear, while the LE model had a glossy white plastic rear with an Android army adorning it.

Reduce screen brightness level. Mobile phone screen is bright indeed make a clearer. But beyond that, the higher the level of screen brightness, the greater the power output your cell phone battery.
Use one feature alone to tell if there are new messages. If there is email, instant messages, short messages (SMS), or call into the Android phone, it does not need the phone rang too loudly and vibrate. Just use one of the two earlier features, sound or vibrate so that the battery is more efficient.
Enabling an important email only. If you have five email accounts and everything is active, you should choose which email is the most frequently used and will be activated throughout the day. The reason, more and more applications, such as email, live streaming, radio, or an active social media at the same time, the greater the battery power is needed.
Always keep a spare battery. When the battery charge, you are advised not to pull out if its capacity has not reached half. Because, if the battery has not reached 50 percent occupied and has been used again, the stored energy will be easily drained because it's still small.
