How do I use Google Drive backup and restore my whats app data ?

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Tue, 12 Jan 2016 15:26:00 +0000

You can back up your messages and media to Google Drive so that if you lose your phone or switch to another Android phone, your chats are safe. We recommend connecting your phone to Wi-Fi prior to backing up your chats via Google Drive, as backup files may vary in size and may consume mobile data, causing additional charges. Learn more about Google Drive backup:

Minimum requirements

In order to use Google Drive backup, you need to have:

A Google account activated on your phone.
Google Play services installed from Google Play in your phone. Note: Google Play services are only available for Android 2.3.4 and higher.
Enough free Google Drive space for your WhatsApp chats and media, including photos, videos, Voice Messages, and audio files.
Enough free space on your phone to create the backup.

Creating a Google Drive backup

How to create a Google Drive backup:

Open WhatsApp.
Go to Menu Button > Settings > Chats and calls > Chat backup.
Tap on Back up to Google Drive and set up the backup frequency to your liking.
You will be prompted to select a Google account that you will back up your chat history to. If you do not have a Google account, tap Add account when prompted. Please remember the Google account you are using for the backup.
Tap on Back up over to choose the network you wish to use for backup. Please note that backing up over cellular may result in additional data charges.

You can also manually back up your chats to Google Drive at any time:

Open WhatsApp.
Go to Menu Button > Settings > Chats and calls > Chat backup.
Tap on Back up to Google Drive and select a backup frequency other than Never.
Tap on Back Up to begin your Google Drive backup. This process may take a few minutes.

Note: Depending on the size of the chat, the first complete backup could take a while. We recommend that you connect your phone to a power source. However, subsequent backups are incremental, thus not requiring a completely new backup of all your data every time.

Restoring from a Google Drive backup

In order to successfully restore a Google Drive backup, you need to use the same phone number and Google account used to create the back up. Then, follow these steps to restore your backup:

Make sure the same Google account that was used to perform the backup has been added to your phone.
Uninstall and reinstall WhatsApp.
After verifying your number, you will be prompted to restore your messages and media from Google Drive.
After the restoration process is complete, tap on Next and your chats will be displayed once initialization is complete.
After restoring your chats, WhatsApp will begin restoring your media files.

Note: If you are installing WhatsApp without any prior backups from Google Drive, WhatsApp will automatically restore from your locally stored backup files. Learn more here.

Configuring your Google Drive backup settings

To change the frequency of your Google Drive backup:

Open WhatsApp.
Go to Menu Button > Settings > Chats and calls > Chat backup.
Tap on Back up to Google Drive.
Set the backup frequency to your liking.

To change to which account you want to back up your chat history:

Open WhatsApp.
Go to Menu Button > Settings > Chats and calls > Chat backup.
Tap on Account and select the account you wish to back up your chat history to.

Note: If you change your Google account, you will not be able to access your backups that are linked to a different Google account.
To change the connection you wish to use for backup:

Open WhatsApp.
Go to Menu Button > Settings > Chats and calls > Chat backup.
Tap on Back up over and select the network you wish to use for backup.

Deleting your backup file from your Google account

You can remove WhatsApp data from your Google Drive. To do so:

Go to Google Drive (https://drive.google.com) and log in to your Google account. If you are accessing the link from your phone, you have to tap on the Menu Button in the top left corner and then choose to use Desktop Version.
Click on the Gear icon in the top right > Settings > Manage Apps.
Scroll until you find WhatsApp in the list. Please note it may take several minutes for WhatsApp to appear on the list.
After you see WhatsApp, wait until “Hidden app data” size comes up. This may also take several minutes.
Click on Options > Delete hidden app data.

Google Drive backup troubleshooting steps

If you are unable to create a Google Drive backup, please try the following:

Verify that you have a Google account added to your phone.
Verify that you have enough available space in your Google Drive account to create a backup. You can see how much space is available on your Google Drive at the bottom left of your screen.
Verify that you have Google Play services installed on your phone. Note: Google Play services are only available on Android 2.3.4 and higher.
If you are attempting to back up on a cellular data network, make sure that you have data for both WhatsApp and Google Play services. Contact your provider if you are unsure.
Attempt to do a backup on a different network (for example, try connecting to Wi-Fi if you are unable to back up on a cellular network).

If you are unable to restore a Google Drive backup, please try the following:

Verify that you are attempting to restore data from the same phone number and Google account that the backup was created on.
Verify that there is enough room on your phone to restore the backup.
Verify that you have Google Play services installed in your phone. Note: Google Play services is only available on Android 2.3.4 and higher.
Make sure your battery is fully charged or your phone is plugged in to a power source.
Make sure your phone is connected to a strong and stable network. If restoring using cellular network does not work, please try Wi-Fi.

10 ways to improve your communication

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 04 Aug 2012 19:50:00 +0000

1) Listen others speech and understand it then try to give reply to them .This may help you to improve vocabulary, grammatical knowledge and accent.

2) Record your voice when you speak English. After you are finished recording, play it back and see what you sound like. If you are not clear, then you can simply try again. This is a great way to see how others hear you.

3) Build trust. Don't say what you don't mean. Don't promise what you won't or can't
fulfill. Follow through with any commitments you make.

4) If you hear a new word and you don't know the meaning, write it down and do research on what it means. In your research you'll encounter many more English words for you to ponder over.

5) Listen to you-Pay attention to what you are hearing from yourself. Does your body
tighten up about certain issues? Body language is not something to read only in other people.

6) Go to your library and pick out titles that are written in English. Try to read those titles. Just be mindful of the difficulty level and even practice writing some of the sentences.

7) Online ESL courses help you to learn English language and provide you materials to learn. All of the other steps can be used outside of your courses to make you proficient in the language.

8) You can seek the help of internet to improve your skill. It is packed full of resources, reading materials, sound recordings, and so much more that can help you learn the meaning of the words that you read and speak.

9) Practice with a friend. This friend may not know English, but impress them with your skills.
You may even try to teach what you have learned because you will be less likely to forget by repeating the information to another.

10) Set goals- Decide how many hours you want to study, how many words you want to learn or what score you want to get in a test are all good ways of making sure you do extra study.

Facebook Now Has 800 Million Users

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 24 Sep 2011 04:38:00 +0000

Facebook opened its F8 conference in unconventional fashion on Thursday, with Saturday Night Live actor Andy Samberg parodying Mark Zuckeberg on stage.

His parody did include on very real stat though: Facebook has passed 800 million users (which Facebook measures as users that have logged in during the past 30 days). That means Facebook has added about 50 million users since July. Zuckerberg took the stage a few minutes after Samberg and offered another stat, noting that Facebook had recently seen its first day in which half a billion people logged into the site.

Zuckerberg is expected to reveal a number of major features during today’s keynote, including media sharing and an overhauled user profile. You can follow the latest updates on our live blog.

1. Top Stories

Facebook's new design highlights posts that you'll likely find important, and prioritizes them at the top of your feed when you log in. The top stories are designated by a blue tag in the upper left corner of the post. From what we can see, however, top stories don't regenerate much throughout the day -- especially if you keep Facebook open in your browser like your Twitter ticker.

2. New Posts

Above your top stories you'll find the option to expand more recent posts, much like Twitter's "47 new tweets" real-time notification bar.

3. Recent Stories

However, the new post notification bar doesn't refresh as often, but instead automatically expands new stories much like the older version.

4. Hide Posts

In the drop-down tab on the upper right of every post, you still have the option to hide posts (whether to delete the individual story or to hide that person's updates altogether). In the new version, you also have the option to mark a post as a top story, thus increasing the likelihood that that type of post or friend will appear in your Top Stories feed.

5. Ticker

The new ticker on the upper right of your homepage condenses real-time posts. Hover over any story to expand and view likes and comments.

6. Ticker / Chat

If you expand your chat sidebar (whether or not you're online), the ticker attaches to the top. That way, any page you navigate away from the home feed will still display real-time updates. Adjust chat/ticker proportions by hovering over the gray bar between chat and the ticker.

7. Album Layout

Last but not least, Facebook has made album design a bit more aesthetic. Albums that appear in your newsfeed stack three photos for a more creative viewing experience.

What Do You Think of the Facebook Changes?

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 24 Sep 2011 04:35:00 +0000

Mark Zuckerberg has announced big Facebook changes — now it’s your turn to react. What do you think of the new Timeline, showing all your stories and all your apps? Is it really a new way to express who you are?

How do you like the Open Graph innovations? How about the new integration of music, movie, TV and news apps?

Yahoo Hooks Up With Facebook for Socially Curated News

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 24 Sep 2011 04:34:00 +0000

Yahoo is betting the farm on Facebook with the launch of a completely new and social way to consume news.

The new Yahoo News feature, whose release coincides with the launch of the new Facebook Open Graph, is an attempt to infuse social into the news curation and discovery process.

“Yahoo has always had amazing content and amazing editorial ability,” Yahoo Director of Product Management Jonathan Katzman says. “Now users can discover the content through their friends.”

Once a user opts into the service (via the new Facebook permissions screen), she will be able to see what news stories her friends have read on both Facebook and Yahoo News. This simple two-way stream of information makes it possible to discover news content through your friends.

The crux of the Yahoo News-Facebook integration is the “facebar,” a row of your friends’ faces that appear above any article you read. Clicking on any of these faces will bring up their recent activity. There is also now a “You on Yahoo News” widget that sits to the right of the content. This widget lets you see a history of what you’ve read and gives you options for removing different stories from your Yahoo News feed and turning the social features off altogether.

This is only the beginning for Yahoo, though. The digital media company is also integrating Facebook withIntoNow, a mobile app that “listens to” and tags TV shows (the company acquired IntoNow earlier this year). “What we’re trying to have happen, and Facebook is trying to do as well, is to be the river of information flowing around your activity,” Katzman says.

Other Yahoo products will roll out with Facebook integration in the next few months, thanks to the additions the social network has made to the Open Graph. Yahoo believes that Facebook integration is good for business as well — it will lead to higher engagement, the struggling Internet giant argues.

The new Facebook integration in Yahoo News is simple, but it’s just the beginning for what the the company has planned. Facebook is about to become a whole lot more prominent on Yahoo.

Prepare Yourselves: Facebook To Be Profoundly Changed

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Sat, 24 Sep 2011 04:33:00 +0000

Facebook is driven by a single, unique goal. Its priority isn’t to gain more users (it already has 750 million of those), nor does it feel compelled to find stupid ways to increase pageviews. Its primary goal right now isn’t to increase revenue, either — that will come later.

No, Facebook’s goal is to become the social layer that supports, powers and connects every single piece of the web, no matter who or what it is or where it lives. On Thursday at its f8 conference in San Francisco, the world’s largest social network will take a giant leap toward accomplishing that goal.

I have seen what Facebook is launching on Thursday, and it’s going to change the world of social media. And while I won’t talk about the mind-boggling things Facebook will be launching, I will say this: The Facebook you know and (don’t) love will be forever transformed. The news that will come out of Facebook during the next few weeks will be the biggest things to come out of the company since the launch of the Facebook Platform.

For Facebook, it all boils down to one problem: emotion. Facebook has hundreds of millions of users and spectacular levels of engagement, but it is a platform that has lost its emotional resonance over the years. More and more people visit Facebook out of necessity rather than desire. It’s a platform people prefer to hate, but won’t leave simply because all their friends are there.

It’s a relationship gone stale. After years of dating, the magic between Facebook and its users has dissipated. It’s a natural evolution in any relationship, but now there is another suitor vying for Facebook’s users. And a lot of people think this suitor is easy on the eyes.

That’s why Facebook launched three recent changes: revamped Friend Lists, a real-time news ticker, and thesubscribe button. Friend Lists lets you share content with just your closest friends (with whom you have the strongest emotional connection), and the ticker lets you have real-time conversations with your friends as soon as they do anything. Subscribe lets you fill your News Feed with people you admire and respect, fostering a different type of emotional connection.

But these changes are just the beginning. The changes Facebook will roll out on Thursday are designed to enhance the emotional connection its users have to each other through Facebook. These changes will make Facebook a place where nearly everything in your life is enhanced by your social graph. These changes will make it so you know your friends better than you ever thought you could.

On Thursday, developers will be elated, users will be shellshocked and the competition will look ancient. On Thursday, Facebook will be reborn. Prepare yourselves for the evolution of social networking.

UPDATE: Facebook has rolled out a number of major changes, including a major overhaul of user profiles, new apps for playing music and watching video on the site, and social news apps. See some of the highlights in the gallery below:

REAL portable computing is coming now | low power requirements vs LEDs | OLEDs (Organic Light Emitting Diode)

noreply@blogger.com (Anonymous) — Thu, 21 Apr 2011 10:30:00 +0000

Form Factor

REAL portable computing is coming now that flexible OLEDs (Organic Light Emitting Diode) are getting ready to enter the marketplace once the bugs are ironed out regarding brightness, reliability, longevity and heat dispersion etc., etc. as they promise to revolutionize every aspect of computing with their thinness, flexibility (obviously) and low power requirements vs LEDs, which are difficult to produce, require beaucoup power and are rigid (glass substrate).

Interesting enough, Red Planet, a pretty decent 2000 sci fi flick (with good special effects) starring Val Kilmer and Carrie-Anne Moss, shows what a device would look like equipped with a flexible display and it's one everyone would want. When OLEDs are combined with capacious solid state memory, fast processor and an interface similar to the iPhone/Minority Report, a smart brick comes to mind because without moving parts, power requirements will drop like a stone, reliability would greatly improve and the devices will be able to handle physical abuse that would kill today's portable systems. When WiMax and open access to RF becomes real (let's hope the FCC doesn't blow it but...), these devices will be everywhere.

Addentum. Sony's entry's not bad either.
