Different rumors that had been doing these since late 2012 on the respective releases of different mobile phones are being effective in a gradual way, in they came to mention the first quarter of 2013 as the period in which the different manufacturing firms finally would show each of its flagships.

Within the first quarter have already been hearing from a few news releases for other terminals , with for example the Sony Xperia Z , the same that would officially present this coming February 21.

2013-02-19T22:23:00.000+01:00

If all the news and rumors that have been mentioned recently about the presence of HTC M7 come true, then in a few hours and maybe we can have a precise definition of what we would be offering this great Android team.

In that time he had shown to a mobile phone in white, having some promotional images with a tinge indicating its official launch this February 19, ie, in a few hours.

All this suggests thatThe official launch will be held on the same date and in the two citiesabove, which amounts to a bi-continental event. Now we just have to wait until that date arrives and finally officially know everything we want to mention signing the much awaited HTC M7.

Google Play Fix Tool DPI

2013-02-05T18:30:00.000+01:00

On occasion lagoon alter users decide dots per inch that are displayed by using third-party modifications. This is to seize the opportunity offered by the panel in the best way possible and not affect the operation of the terminal. But all of them are in for a surprise when you go to the shop Google Play, and proving that the amount of available applications is less about compatibility issues.

But there are some possibilities to prevent this from happening, such as the installation of a modified online store. This, to be effective, can be somewhat complicated and tedious for users. For this reason, a member of XDA Developers called hamsteyr offers a solution to stop this from happening and to be a fairly simple process: Google Play Fix Tool DPI .

To use this setting that lets you vary the dots per inch on the screen, you must connect the device to a computer with the operating system Windows and running the appropriate application, all you have to do is specify the desired amount and apply.

Once this is done, no problem when searching on Google Play programs as "masks" the information and, therefore, all shown without compatibility problems appearing in the amount of dots per inch that have been established . Thus, the APK is taken directly from the device itself and, thus, the information that comes to the online store is adequate to avoid problems.

The support offered by the various devices is very high, since from Android 2.3 or higher is prefect. And besides, options and JRE ADB when the terminal facilities and possible updates are not affected. In this link you have all the files needed to use Google Play Fix Tool DPI.

The new MySpace is here

2013-02-04T23:49:00.000+01:00

As well as read, MySpace is back and it is not that he is gone, but the social network returns in place completely renovated for thus trying to offer a new attraction to the users.

After being one of the most popular networks, MySpace began to lose users who went to newest like Twitter, Facebook and Google Plus networks. One of the reasons for the decline of MySpace is that they were not occupied in maintaining this aspect of innovation and change that began to show its main competitor, Facebook. However, the network kept to an acceptable level of users which were maintained mainly by the musical aspect that developed the network.

Then in 2011 MySpace was acquired by Justin Timberlake and other partners, network focused on offering a site extremely devoted to music, also began to design a new concept which seems to be that finally we finished from new.myspace.com.

In particular, MySpace offers a new design which we can know from the sample page where you can view the News and explore new areas of the site:
-Discover other users, music, mixes and music Videoscatalogo - access to biography of artists, songs, albums, videos and eventosCrear a mix - you can create a mixture using photos, videos or Musicaradio - similar to Spotify and others, radio service that can tune a station according to our taste in music
On the other hand the interface is intended to be extremely minimalist and intuitive, this single menus appear or will be expanded when necessary. The player will also offer more possibilities and general change turns out to be good for the eyes because everything looks in order, and is easier to use. But all of this shall ye give you another opportunity to MySpace?

The Samsung Galaxy Q will be the first dual-screen foldable AMOLED

2013-02-04T20:00:00.000+01:00

Not long ago, a matter of days, we talked about the six upcoming releases that the South Korean company was waiting for over the first half of 2013. Among them was one who did not fit far the GT-B9150. Now we know more about it, as that will be the Samsung Galaxy Q and that it is the first smartphone with a dual screen foldable AMOLED HD. Its launch would be set for the Mobile World Congress 2013.

Often we live event in Barcelona. At this rate they will have more devices than can fit in this blog. The Samsung Galaxy Q seems to be the last name that points to a growing list that smacks more successful and that would put the city of Barcelona as the center of the world of mobile technology. And, actually, it is. Shown left after this there is hope that the first terminal with a dual screen with AMOLED HD technology, and it is also foldable.

At the risk of critiquéis we talk again for a folding screen, we must, as all information suggests that it will be a smartphone, in effect, has a double panel, which folds on itself. Already we tallied his name, GT-B9150. It was the letter "B" that could not relate to other models. Now it is clear why.

There are no confirmed anything officially, but the filtered data are quite interesting. Take a double screen Super AMOLED HD, as we have said, with a resolution of 1920 by 1080 pixels, quite remarkable. Contrasts sharply with the processor, which does not become quad-core, dual core being well, with a clock frequency of 1.7 GHz, accompanied, of course, a not inconsiderable drive 2 GB RAM.

In the photographic section we find a main chamber with an eight-megapixel sensor, which is in the high-average line today, and it shall be supplemented by a secondary camera on the front of two megapixels. Its battery 3500 mAh to go, a very high figure, but logic and normal watching the big screen that the device would have, it would be dual and foldable. Finally, Jelly Bean Android 4.2.1 operating system that would be installed would.

The Samsung Galaxy Q could be presented at the Mobile World Congress 2013 in Barcelona, so we would see it in just a few weeks. We'll see if new data are appearing this curious smartphone.

The Asus Memo Pad 10 appears in photo and specs

2013-02-04T17:31:00.000+01:00

The hours are still going to the Mobile World Congress 2013. All teams have been spent preparing the launch of a device can relax, and let rise to marketing teams and promotion. One of the devices that you will have a good role in the whole arrangement is Asus Memo Pad 10 , which we know how to be on the outside and inside. From now, no more secrets on this tablet.

It aims to be the older brother of Asus Memo Pad 7 , and will be with his ten inch big screen. Asus has a great reputation in the market for tablets, and this has been recognized through Google, addressing them to make their first tablet, the Nexus 7. For all these things, we expect a great device, with a good price / quality ratio and excellent performance. For now, though, we must be content with the theoretical data, as pilots will not come until we have the tablet in hands.

The 10.1 inch screen has a resolution of 1280 by 800 pixels, so it will be high definition, but not Full HD. Within your heart keep a chip Nvidia Tegra 3 quad-core, which reminds us to Nexus 7. This processor will be accompanied by 1GB RAM and an internal memory of 16 GB, but will also include the possibility of being extended by an external microSD card. The main rear camera of five megapixels will take decent photographs, but not exceptional. The front will have a 1.2-megapixel camera for video calling. Something that will appeal to all and sundry is that will feature HDMI output, ideal for those looking to enjoy your HD content on an external display which, although not enough, there are many. All this without forgetting its wireless features, such as WiFi or Bluetooth, present in the tablet.

The Asus Memo Pad 10 come with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean as commander in chief of the device. Little is known about its price, but is said to be in the same range as the iPad Mini. This would mean that the tablet would be left in a difficult position, as has so ably. Hopefully they can lower the price a bit, otherwise it will difficult to compete with Samsung too familiar with the almighty Apple and with Google's Nexus.

Android App: Floating Stickies available in Play Store

2013-02-04T16:51:00.001+01:00

With the increasing availability of smartphones today, manufacturers are offering the ability to have multiple windows open, thus emulating the desktop. The idea of floating notes arises from this new trend, so that it is not necessary to access the home screen to see the note you want. Since you can always have floating the note and close it when you are interested.

Floating Stickies application gives us the opportunity to open a floating window where you can write a quick note. The note may be floating on the screen, on any item that is open and minimized well be on the left side of the screen. You can open as many notes and therefore floating windows as you want and with different colors. The text of a note can be copied to another. The only drawback is that it does not save the contents of the note, so when you close the application content itself disappears.

More data confirming that the Samsung Galaxy S4 work with 8 core Exynos 5

2013-02-04T16:24:00.002+01:00

The Samsung Galaxy S4 is on everyone's lips for months, and this is something we can not remedy since the next flagship of the Korean company promises a lot. And although Samsung has not made any mention of it, according to the latest information the terminal would begin shipping during the month of April, and it seems to be confirmed, little by little, the phone will feature a 5 Octa Exynos processor eight core to 1.8 GHz .

The little that we come to know about the Samsung Galaxy S4, thanks to leaks such as UAProf are presenting data on the device to be held at the Samsung Unpacked event in March, rather than in a large exhibition as the Mobile World Congress. And thanks to the internal documentation of a mobile shop in New Zealand, began broadcasting certain rumors that the Samsung Galaxy S4 begin to be sold during the month of April. documents portrayed a drawing conditions among employees company whose prize was nothing less than the next flagship Koreans.

As for its features, pointing to rumors came that the Samsung Galaxy S4 present a 4.99-inch screen with full HD resolution, an 8-core processor, 13-megapixel camera, system operating Android 4.2 Jelly Bean and winding possible Wireless.

Noting that Samsung used this last fair in Las Vegas CES 2013, we see an evolution of the screens that Samsung has incorporated their phones in recent years, including the new designed for 2013, which as shown, coincides with a 4.99 inch screen in full HD. From this data we know the screen that the Korean company Samsung Galaxy dressing the S4.

And finally, we get a result of a data-test AnTuTu Benchmark, for a device GT-I9500 (Samsung Galaxy S4), confirming the rumors about the processor. The picture presented below confirm again that the Samsung Galaxy S4 work with a central processor that will run at a frequency of 1.8 GHz, which experts say could correspond to an 8-core chip as the Exynos 5 Octa. We also shows that the phone's operating system is Android 4.2.1.

Of course, as happened with the Galaxy S3, there is no doubt that the Samsung Galaxy S4 will be marketed internationally and with great success in sales. We continue with our eyes wide open to all the innovations that come to light about the awaited Galaxy S4.

Does mega worth? The hidden face of Mega

2013-02-03T15:15:00.000+01:00

The launch of Mega on Saturday (Sunday New Zealand local time) has generated a myriad of opinions, some in favour but many others disagree. As you said in the news of his release, does not add much to what we already know in respect of Cyberlockers. The good thing about the service are its 50 Gb capacity, albeit with an exaggerated security, which has been said is poorly implemented.

We will not now discuss the morality of Kim Dotcom, which to this day has not given a penny for Megaupload premium accounts, since in defense of Dotcom can say that it is impossible to know by name who have paid premium accounts and who has used free accounts. We will analyze if Mega worth or not by the user and if he had felt so much expectation raised by the service.

Clear that 50 Gb capacity is a significant figure for a free account. But come on, if you lose the password, you lose everything, because there is no way to recover it. The security imposed in Mega is so high that we will not even have that possibility. Although one of the co-founders of Mega has announced they are studying to be able to retrieve or change passwords in the future, yet nothing is assured. In addition, according to the latest views of security experts, none of them is recommended to use Mega for storing confidential documents.

But most disturbing arrives when reading the terms of use of the service, where the user is the only one who lost to loss of data, failure of service or legal in each account interventions, since Mega is not responsible for anything. I.e., Mega seems to be made for people safety, but not the user's, but that of Dotcom and company. Mega is a millionaire income to Dotcom, who shall not be liable for any loss of data or the guilt of piracy of the user, and which will be legally covered if dropped a complaint about any file stored there.

Meanwhile, Mega could be defined as a service in which may store files of little importance (Dotcom promises until an integrated Office suite), some pictures and little else. Do not trust mega, Mega is Megaupload where at least things were already a little more transparent than the fate of the service was the same fate that the user ran, as it has been seen with its closure. When Dotcom went to prison, many users have lost files. With Mega, if you lose files or there is a legal problem, Dotcom is not responsible for anything and remains untouchable for justice.

The patch patch is released for IE6, 7 and 8

2013-02-02T12:10:00.000+01:00

At the end of December we learned a vulnerability through Flash in previous versions of Microsoft browsers. The vulnerability was present in the version 6, 7 and 8 of IE Explorer, so Microsoft threw a Fix-it to fix it during the final days of last year.

Today the company from Redmond has released a new patch (that well could be called "the patch patch") in which attempts to give definitive to the problem solution. This patch is recommended by Microsoft as "very important" and should be installed as soon as possible.

The vulnerability is a remote code execution in the way that Internet Explorer accesses an object in memory that has been deleted or has not properly allocated. The vulnerability may corrupt memory in such a way that could allow an attacker to execute arbitrary code in the context of the current Internet Explorer user. An attacker could host a web site designed to exploit this vulnerability through Internet Explorer and then convince a user to visit the web site.

The download and installation of the patch is automatic, thanks to Windows Update. Microsoft recommends that you uninstall the previous patch before you install the new patch.

If you are still using previous versions of IE, it is recommended that you download the latest version. Versions 8-10 has not been affected by this vulnerability.

After you have followed all the rumors about this tablet for weeks, finally we can give now all data on its launch in Europe, which has already been communicated officially by Asus. We have been told today, the Memo Pad 7 will begin marketing in our country in February will arrive in 3 colors and will be priced at 169 euros.

While a lower price we expected by the data given for sale in the United States, it seems that eventually there will be so lucky. The price of $150 that had spoken to North America, let us some hope that in Europe we could see him by around 120 euros. According to the statement from Asus, however, the price for which the can acquire it in Europe will be 169 euros.

The truth is that the price is high enough that some tablets with similar specs as the Acer A1-B71, or other low-cost traditional, such as bq or Ainolmanufacturers. However, Asus still has confidence that awakens your brand in your favor and, in any case, is still cheaper than the Nexus 7alternative. It is clear that compete with sponsorship from Google, it is a complicated task.

We have also known that new Asus tablet will be available in three colours: white, dark grey and, for the more adventurous, Fuchsia. With respect to the technical specifications, however, there is no outstanding novelties. The Memo Pad 7 will count with an 7 inch with a resolution of 1024 x 600, 1 GHz processor, 1 GB of RAM, 8 or 16 GB of storage (depending on model) extensible via micro-SD cards, and 4270 mAhbattery. The operating system will be Jelly Bean (Android 4.1).

In what refers to his brother elder, the Asus Memo Pad 10, remain pending new data about your marketing, while we have already seen an unboxing of the tablet.

Extension leads options default to send in one hour, two or within one day, for example, although always you can indicate the date and exact in that time we want to make shipment. This functionality can be useful if we know what is the best time to ensure that our recipient receives our mail.

Not replied mail reminder functionality allows us to keep track of emails that need to be answered but have not received it. To send the mail we will establish the maximum period in which we need to receive a response, and if we do not get it, Boomerang will let us know.

In terms of the reminder emails is intended for situations in which we received an email but it is not the time to treat it (is not 'actionable' at that moment that they say in management tasks as GTD systems). In that case we can say to Boomerang that tell us when the time comes and removes it us our Inbox so that it does not distract us or we have to think about that email for that at the moment we can do nothing.

As I commented earlier, Boomerang is not free but it has three versions: free, personal and professional. The three discussed options are available in the free version but with limitation to the management of 10 messages. Paid versions do not have these limitations and also include some functionality such as notes associated with reminders and a mobile version that only is available in the more advanced version that costs 14.99 dollars a month.

In the video below is given an Overview of the functioning of Boomerang as well as some situations in which it could be used:

Facebook presents the Graph Search, new search engine chart

2013-01-30T22:34:00.000+01:00

It has revealed the announcement that Facebook was going to do and that most in the world of the network was talking about. Finally, it has been a new feature called Graph Search (search graphic), which will be the third column on which Facebook clinches, in the words of their leader, Mark Zuckerberg.

The new search engine will be engine part of Facebook, which will use its Time Line and its Newswire, next Graph Search, as the most important Facebook basis. It is not an index of the web, but it is a search engine within the same Facebook that will integrate searches conducted using natural expressions. For example, the search asking something may be done as well as: "people who like cycling and are from my city of residence" or "friends of friends singles in San Francisco".

Such depth of Facebook with respect to these new searches leads us to ask us to where the social network to gather information bypassing the privacy of each of its membershas arrived. To be exact, the questions that the new search engine can not respond, will be answered by Bing. As you can see everything is related, all Facebook data are public with anyone who wants to Facebook.

The new feature can be seen as a test beta via the link below. Its implementation will take still a lot of time, since according to Zuckerberg "it will take years" index the complete map for the operation of the new search engine.

Firefox 18.0.1 coming soon

2013-01-29T18:58:00.000+01:00

Since Mozilla decided that Firefox updates should come out every 6 weeks things have been somewhat complicated, especially in the first days of launch already in most of the times the browser is not yet ready or simply a bug in last hour that delayed the departure and that at certain times ago that you required an extra update is detected.

But with the recent arrival of Firefox not step 18 nothing weird, the Mozilla development team is already currently working on the preparation process of what will be Firefox 18.0.1, minor update which will arrive in the coming days. But why launch this fast version? After the jump we'll talk a bit more than this.

Since Bugzilla we can find the answer that there we have a sample of eleven patches available for your web browser. However, three of the eleven errors have been catalogued with a critical severity level, that is why the Mozilla team is trying to fix this in the update to be released very soon.

Specifically the most problematic bugs are:
Errors when you run Firefox 18 in Windows, especially on the first run.Failure in Firebug after running the JavaScript debugger on LinuxEn OS X versions 'Unity' content does not play more, the feature isn't available in Firefox 18.
Other bugs are a little more technical and mostly affecting the use of proxy on OS X are related to occurrences of the page change suggestion box (this appears even when the page is correct).

Assassins Creed III Liberation: the brotherhood falters in PS Vita

2013-01-29T18:48:00.000+01:00

At the end of last year, the popular franchise of Ubisoft Montreal finally saw the light in PS Vita. And did so in a quite remarkable way but being fair, with some black spots that shadowed the final result. Go ahead that Assassin completo Creed III: Liberation is a good game. This new portable spin-off introduces several new features in the saga and is also really good at graphic level. Developers wanted to provide the title of an air something different to that seen so far with the plot of Ezio Auditore and in doing so have added some details that had not been seen in previous installments. During the first time of game, it gives the feeling that we are facing a facelift of the Assassin's Creed franchise, but once tucked into slaughter, it is that in the end not so much...

As happens with "his brother" (the long awaited Assassin completo Creed III that is also now available for Xbox 360, PS3 and PC) in this 'Liberation' the atmosphere has radically changed with respect to the previous installments and now we are in the year 1765, in the prosperous New Orleans. The main novelty is that, for the first time in this popular series of video games, the main character is female. On this occasion, we embody Aveline, a young native girl who, after an unfortunate incident, lost her mother as only a girl and is adopted by a wealthy family in that city.

In his teens, the brotherhood of killers recruits her and indoctrinated to be a lethal assassin. Once adult, she uses her training to free the slaves of the yoke to which they are subjected by unscrupulous people and thirsty for power. But, as always happens with this saga, nothing is what it seems and many secrets are about to be revealed.

In the skin of Aveline, we return to again face the sempiternos enemies of the assassins who, once again, they are up in the soup. And the truth is that, after a somewhat "peculiar" start history manages to hook the player to find out more about this new heroine of the series and the secrets that are hidden in your family. Libération is a game that has each and every one of the ingredients that have made large to this franchise and introduces new elements (some of them very interesting) with the intention to bring some freshness to that seen previously. That Yes, all the mistakes that have always dragged the AC are also present in this exclusive title of PS Vita developed by Ubisoft Sofia.

For starters, has too many bugs (some may even annoy you that seriously affect the game experience) and the popping is present at every step you take. Either we struggled on this occasion of the popular "my character goes through solid objects because Yes" nor of the appellant always "even if I die I stay here twisted and floating in the air"...

While 'Liberation' is very comprehensive in almost all aspects, these technical problems I mention drag the gaming experience too often and left in the player the feeling that the game could have been more polished (the console seems to be capable of much more) and, above all, that either desktop or portable versionin this franchise is going to continue to see the same mistakes in every game that are coming out on this generation.
"If we have to go through an area full of guards, with our weapons of women it will be bread eaten..."

Worst of all is the mania meter with shoehorn actions of all kinds of absurd actions under the guise of game mechanics, as for example: "Focuses the camera towards a light" (and hopefully within two hours you can continue playing if you manage to run) or "drag your fingers by touch panels (front and rear to open a letter". Gross error, gentlemen developers. Once, two also applies. But entering such details or Yes in every mission in the game is unfair and just tiring the player and even bored him. Unfortunately, this which I mention often almost always appear in the first batch of games for consoles with certain features or technical specifications. If you have played to Uncharted: the abyss of gold have suffered also in your meat. In my opinion, is clearly an error that is repeated too often and which, in its attempt to show something new or make a "differentiator", is detrimental to the player rather than encourage him.

But, and this is important to mention it, Liberation is a game that you have positive things too. The plot is pretty good and a graphic level is a very powerful game, at the height of the Lord Nathan Drake on this same console debut. Details such as the possibility to use different costumes in according to moments of the game or be able to seduce the enemy to put it on our part, bring a different and very interesting touch. The use of new weapons such as the whip, the axe and the blowguns also bring a touch of freshness and must be also taken into account. Dubbing into Spanish is correct (without more) and the music is not bad while at certain times maybe it becomes too repetitive. I miss many things missing and lines general I left a flavor somewhat bittersweet after playing to Liberation, but at the same time think that it is the prelude to the good that we see in PS Vita very soon. Without a doubt, the best is yet to come.
