I am actually one of the support administrators for Titanium Track. Yes, the world known most famous backup application for Android!

Shahz — Thu, 16 Jun 2011 05:59:01 +0000

So, last night, the claimed attack by Anonymous took place and shut down a wide number of government websites. More than 40 websites were gang-banged hard enough to take them out at night for hours.

The 1Malaysia e-mail program

Shahz — Tue, 19 Apr 2011 21:02:51 +0000

It is a great initiative for the government to think over the IT literacy and provide e-mails to the rakyat. However, as much as it seems like a good idea, here is what my prediction is about the system. 1. Server loads With approximately 27.5 million population (and ever growing), sending out the e-mails will [...]

3G and MMS settings for Celcom, Digi and Maxis

Shahz — Fri, 04 Mar 2011 04:18:16 +0000

So, today I officially switched to Celcom which makes my Malaysian network cycle complete. I was using Maxis ever since 2001 until mid 2010. Then I switched to Digi until today.

Tablet Study – Case 4 : Connectivity

Shahz — Wed, 02 Mar 2011 11:43:37 +0000

With size, performance and storage in place, we have a final decision to make – connectivity. Connectivity is rather a simple decision to make.

Tablet Study – Case 1 : Size

Shahz — Fri, 25 Feb 2011 16:00:40 +0000

Tablet wars has begun! Motorola Xoom has started “xooming” off their nuclear missles in the air, while Apple has “iLaunched” their iPad2 hype campaign. Being an Android fanatic, I will not be judging on which device delivers better verdicts and so forth because there are way too many of those shrooming on the internet for [...]

Why no Froyo on Garmin Asus A10 doesn’t bother me

Shahz — Wed, 09 Feb 2011 15:19:15 +0000

So we had confirmed sources saying there will be no Froyo on the A10. I wasn’t really surprised when I was told about that and I didn’t have any problems with not having Froyo upgrade. Several reasons that I would like to specify: OS upgrades are never ending When the A10 first came out, it [...]

My Android wish

Shahz — Sun, 06 Feb 2011 06:10:33 +0000

Almost two years ago, the first Android phone came to the scene. I was kinda excited back then because I was already following its verdicts before it was even released.

No Froyo for Garmin Asus A10

Shahz — Fri, 28 Jan 2011 02:00:10 +0000

Many have been waiting, plenty have given up. This is what has happened in the Garmin-Asus community at the moment. As the frustration heats, I have some sad news to share. We might not get Froyo for the A10 at all. I got a verbal word from one of my informers that the Froyo upgrade [...]

Android against Apple in 2011

Android Virus Alert – What does this mean?

Hide files from Android Gallery and public view

Shahz — Mon, 27 Dec 2010 06:44:23 +0000

One thing Android does very well is indexing files and folders. This makes searching for the files not only easy, but very fast too. However, everything is indexed unless a rule is set in the particular folder. Generally, Android assumes files that begin with a period ( . ) as hidden files. But what if [...]

Love me some Gingerbread!

Shahz — Wed, 22 Dec 2010 18:35:44 +0000

When I first bought the Nexus One, my intentions were to get a powerful phone that fulfills all my requirements. 1GHz Snapdragon sounded yummy. And as the features list went on, I already knew I was going to get it before it was even launched – which drove me to the point of buying the [...]

Thanks for Froyo Samsung, but Kies sucks!

Shahz — Sat, 27 Nov 2010 17:30:39 +0000

So today was the day for me to upgrade my mom’s Samsung Galaxy S to Froyo. What was supposed to be a happy upgrade slowly turned into a disaster and made me dislike Samsung products even more. What happened? Lets follow. First of all, I found out that I needed to use the Samsung Kies [...]

Canon EOS 60D joins my gadget family

ShahZ — Mon, 22 Nov 2010 16:00:33 +0000

I have to be honest, I never was a photographer in my younger days. I did own a normal Kodak point-and-shoot camera that was not much of a boastful camera too. I did get to play with my dad’s Chinon SLR camera sometime back which eventually spoiled. After that, mobile photography has pretty much taken [...]

ADB installation and how to logcat

ShahZ — Mon, 22 Nov 2010 08:27:38 +0000

One of the most important tools in Android is the ADB (short for “Android Debugging Bridge”). This tool comes together with the Android SDK. Even more important is its logcat tool. Logcat is very useful when it comes to identifying errors and problems in Android. However, since logcat is an ADB tool, it is loaded [...]

The difference between Froyo A2SD, A2SD and A2SD+

ShahZ — Fri, 22 Oct 2010 16:00:21 +0000

One of the glories of using Android is having an SD card for storage rather than having internal-only memory. Thanks to Android’s Linux blood, you can even harness the power of the SD card beyond its usual file storage capabilities. On Android, your internal memory is precious and you do not want to install games [...]

Many Android users have been looking for an alternative GPS application for their Android devices.

The big problem is, they [...]

Google should..

Shahz — Wed, 28 Jul 2010 18:02:28 +0000

Make sure Android is really fit for tablets before kicking out. This will ensure a real kick in the ass of the iPad!

Google should..

Shahz — Wed, 23 Jun 2010 14:21:08 +0000

NOT consider US residents as “EVERYONE”. There are people living outside of US who are also waiting for the Google Voice impatiently!

Encrypted apps access for froyo

Okay, so some of you guys are getting impatient to download the encrypted apps (such as ExZeus, Homerun Battle 3D, etc) from the market. Personally, Homerun Battle 3D is my favorite game on Android. Com2Us are the big brains behind this awesome game. However, after upgrading to Froyo, I was unable to get the game [...]

Android – What is Root, Superuser & custom software?

ShahZ — Mon, 24 May 2010 19:07:36 +0000

I know Android is still a new thing in our country. Users who bought Android because they are either geeks, Linux gurus, adventurers, and explorers has passed. Now, Android is reaching a state where new users are following rather than doing their researches first. Credit goes to these people from the first group for making [...]

Google sells User Experience – NOT hardware

ShahZ — Mon, 24 May 2010 06:49:44 +0000

When Google announced that it will be closing down its Nexus One store, I was really skeptical about their reasoning of “underperforming sales”. We’re talking about Google here. NOT any puny noobs on the internet market. Now during this time, I bet the iFans were going nuts, partying about the fact that was revealed. Which [...]

Google halts its unlocked selling theory

ShahZ — Sun, 16 May 2010 16:44:45 +0000

Its the spoken word of the week. Google has finally decided to get back to the old-skool strategy with their Nexus One.

Steve Job does think he can change the world. I totally respect the way he has marketed iPhone and made it planted into every human being’s mind. If I’d fallen for iPhone too, that would’ve just mean another “Coca-Cola” strategy to me. However, his recent lengthy written speech about going against Flash has made me [...]

Apple has an app for that but you only get to pick

ShahZ — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 16:00:03 +0000

Yesterday, I posted about how applications should decide our OS and not the other way round. While having a wide variety of applications is an excellent approach in promoting an OS, the OS itself should also be able to accomodate everything that it promises. Apple has reached more than 200K applications for its iPhone to [...]

Which OS should I choose?

This is one of the most common questions asked. In computer’s world, this calls up GNU/Linux, Microsoft Windows and MacOSX generally.
