FIXING SAMSUNG GALAXY PHONE KEYBOARD AUTOCORRECT

I had a problem with my Samsung S4 keyboard some days ago,   I went all crazy about it.

This is what really happened. I was typing in my usual ‘chatting’ language, using all those short words to make things easier for myself, then suddenly I observed that I couldn’t use practically any word not in the English dictionary. So I went ahead to download Swiftkey, unfortunately for me, I did not like the way it was designed and the way it works. So I sat down, racked my brain and I figured out the solution (reasons why I love myself). So I decided to post this on my blog for other Samsung phone users out there because am sure I am not the only one with in this dilemma, though am not in it again *winks*. So this is what you do:

·         Go to your phone settings

·         Then you go to my device, and from there to language and inputs

·         Click on the settings sign beside Samsung keyboard

·         Toggle on Predictive text (it should be actually on if you have the autocorrect problem)

·         Then tap the Predictive text again(not toggling this time around)

·         You would find auto replacement there

·         Uncheck it

·         Come back to thank me

TECNO P5

Hi guys, whats new with you guys. It’s been quite a while. Formality apart, lets take a look at the Tecno P5, this is more like the upgraded version of the Tecno P3. The Tecno P3 is quite an old phone now, about or over a year its been out, and if you do not really know much about the P3, you can just check it out on my blog to see what the phone is about. Now back to the P5, like I mentioned above, it’s been around for a while, since last year actually about October and November, that was when it was released. So let’s take a stroll round the Tecno P5 park, trust me, it’s going to be fun.

Design: P3 has a screen size of about 4.0”. Yeah, it’s quite moderate and it ha all other Tecno physical buttons, which are the volume rocker and power button. It comes in quite a variety of colours, white, black, gray and pink. Might be more than that but those are the ones have seen. And the dimensions, yeah, they are about 124.3*65.5*10.5mm.

Operating System: Since it was released late last year, it comes stocked with the Google Android version 4.2.2 (Jelly Bean). So you won’t be missing out of the fun for latest and coolest applications.

Memory: It comes equipped with 4GB of Ram, but like every other phone out there, don’t be expecting it to be complete because of the applications that have already been installed on it from the factory. But as usual no need to entertain fear because it has an expandable microSD card space which can accommodate up to 32GB of microSD card and also the phone comes with an 8GB microSD card, so let’s just say you’ve got about 8GB of space of your phone.

It has 512Mb Ram.

Processor: It comes with a processor of 1.0GHz dual core Mediatek. So pretty much all the cool games out there would run smoothly, though be expecting your phone to misbehave occasionally because even the high end phones do misbehave. So have great fun with your phone.

Camera: Yeah, the camera, also what some of us really like about a phone. It comes with a dual camera like every other phone, with the rear being equipped with 5.0MP of camera with flash while the front camera is about 2MP. So video calls are one thing we really want to try out on this phone.

Battery Life: Since the screen isn’t that large and does not have all those power consuming features, the phone comes equipped with a battery capacity of 1800mAh. The battery lasts about 8 hours on talktime while 288 hours on standby. Pretty cool for a phone of this kind of specifications.

Price: Like what Tecno has done with every of their other phones, this phone is also of such a reasonable price. Thumbs up to tecno.

RIP SkyDrive. Welcome OneDrive

Microsoft has officially renamed its cloud storage service with some useful new features including collaborative editing and smart video streaming.

This change was because of a legal dispute with TV company BskyB, and on Wednesday the rebrand went global

Everthinng about OneDrive remains the same as SkyDrive expect for several massive improvements. The biggest being people can now simultaneously access and edit files stored in OneDrive. Other additions include an updated android app that will automatically save photos and videos captured on the device to OneDrive.

Apart from that, today Microsoft also lauches a new referral program, it is very reminiscent of Dropbox's referral system. If a friend signs up using your link, you get 500MB of free storage, up to a maximum of 10 friends and doing the maths of that we have a maximum of 5GB to be given out.

With this introduction, i guess the competition between these cloud system, that is, google's Drive, apple's iCloud is going to be more stiff. So watch out and see out each of them edge over the other.

BBM UPDATE FOR ANDROID AND IOS

Guess what guys,

There is going to be a new BBM update out there for Android and IOS users by the end of today. This update is going to include Channels and Voice Support just like in Blackberry 10, Channels lets you chat about hot topics with fellow users, whether or not they’re already friends. Voice, meanwhile, does exactly what it says on the tin: you can make internet based calls to your BBM friends. Apart from those two major update, it also comes with Dropbox file sharing integration, Glympse location sharing and expanded BBM Groups.

So all BBM users grab your phones and wait patiently for the update to be released.

TECNO S5

TECNO S5

Hi guys, whats happening with you all. It’s been long since I posted. That is basically because I was writing my exams. Am done with that so am back here. So today we would be looking at the Tecno s5. Another of Tecno Superb phones out there. Yeah this tecno guys have released quite a lot of phones and trust me, we’ve all not seen enough of them. Like it is usually said, probably what we’ve just seen is just the tip of the iceberg. Would be expecting a lot from them this year. So back to the S5. Not really sure when it was launched but I guess it was sometime in December last year. So it aint so stale cause I would be writing some reviews on some stale phones and when I say stale, I really mean stale and am also thinking of a situation where I would not just be based on tecno phones alone but also tech news so be expecting quite a lot from me in the next few weeks. Time to take a dive into the Tecno S5, so get your swimming trunks ready and dive along with me.

 

Design: The S5 comes with a quite moderate sized screen which is about 4.5”. Yeah, that screen size is kind of great for me, it’s not too big and it is neither so small. Also has the normal Tecno buttons round it which are the volume rocker and the power button, both sides. Its dimensions are 135.9*68.8*10.75mm. just looking at the dimensions alone I guess you know it’s kind of small but also big. Not really sure how many colour brands are out there, but am pretty sure it comes in both white and black colours.

Operating System: Like most other Tecno phones released recently, it comes stocked with the Google Android version 4.2.2 which is popularly known as Jelly bean. So BBM, and other high OS demanding applications would run smoothly on this.

Memory: It comes equipped with 4GB of Ram, but like every other phone out there, don’t be expecting it to be complete because of the applications that have already been installed on it from the factory. But as usual no need to entertain fear because it has an expandable microSD card space which can accommodate up to 32GB of microSD card.

It has 512Mb Ram.

Processor: Game lovers always waiting for this part of the phone. Guess what, this phone is not also ready to let you down as it comes with 1.3 GHz Dual core powered by MEDIATEK, yeah like every other Tecno phone out there. It’s quite cool.

Camera: Yeah, the camera, also what some of us really like about a phone. It comes with a dual camera like every other phone, with the rear being equipped with 5.0MP of camera with flash while the front camera is about 1.2MP. So video calls are one thing we really want to try out on this phone.

Battery Life: Since the screen aint that large and does not have all those power consuming features, the phone comes equipped with a battery capacity of 1800mAh. Pretty cool for a phone of this kind of specifications.

Price: Like what Tecno has done with every of their other phones, this phone is also of such a reasonable price. Thumbs up to tecno.

FlappyBird

A lot of us would be wondering why FlappyBird was brought down.
Same down here because I was about downloading it when i found out that it has been removed from the playstore.
The game which has spent close to a year on the stores did not really receive much attention until the beginning of this year. We don't know why but allegations against the owner suggests that he made use of bots to make his game popular. Also it is believed that he was also threatened by Nintendo which mad him pull the game away from the stores because of the pipes in the game look like
So the combination of all this allegations made him pull the game of the store.

those in  their once ever popular 'Super Mario' game pipes, and one more thing, not sure about this though, because i have not played it, it is also said that the creator made the game intentionally hard.

Still would have loved to have it on my phone.

R.I.P FlappyBirds

TECNO PHANTOM A3

Am bringing this to you my readers pretty late because I was not aware of when it came out though I was waiting patiently like a dog for it to be launched so you guys can have this first hand review but as it is I am what they call in my country “LAST-MA”. I guess my apology is accepted, with that done, let’s take a look at the latest Tecno smartphone out there. It’s the new Tecno A3. Also in the league of other tecno flagship phones which are the phantoms. So we simply have another phantom device out and it is set to woo you guys. This is quite a big phone and falls in the league of the phablets, guess you all know which set of phones fall in this category and if you do not, then I guess you would fancy the idea of checking out my review on Infinix Alpha. It comes with a 6” screen size and not really much of changes compared to the Phantom A2 but like the name implies it has got some great features which makes the A2 look petit compared to it. So for those of you who are really fascinated about big screen phones, please use your seat belt because am about to take you on a wild ride into the world of the Tecno Phantom A3.

Design: it’s selling point being its screen size is one to talk about, possessing a terrific 6” says it all. So I guess you all know this is way more like a very big phone and the biggest Tecno has produced and would probably be among the world’s largest screen sized phones rocking dimensions of about 160*82*8.9mm. It’s design is also superb, like every other tecno phones, it comes in a rectangular form and has dimensions of about . it comes in  black and white.

Operating System: Some of us would have expected that a phone released just a month after the lunch of the latest android operating system would be stocked with it, but that is not what Tecno is offering us here. Like the Phantom A, the Phantom A3 comes stocked with the android version 4.2, but not to worry it is among the coolest android operating system in town, though would have loved them to stock the phone with something higher.

Memory: This is another talking point of the A3, it comes with an internal memory of 16GB, cool and guess what, it also has a memory card slot unlike most high end phones being produced now, with such massive internal memory, you are pretty sure not to get a memory card slot to expand your memory capacity.

It also comes with 1 GB of RAM. I was expecting this phone to have something much more than this, like about 1.5GB. I don’t really know why they did not stock this phone with that.

Processor: It does not disappoint at this point, it comes with 1.5GHz Quad core processor. Terrific you screamed right. Yeah, all those cool games have met their match most especially when you look at its GPU, this phone is really cool. And am sure lot of us would be looking out to feed on this phone. We all can’t wait to get our hands on it. 

Camera: For those of us who can’t stop admiring what we look like and what other stuffs really mean, and most especially for those of us who have fun going down the memory lane, the A3 camera is what you want to have your hands on. Back camera is 13MP with an autofocus and also LED flashlight, while the front camera is 8MP, so all those video chatting and taking high standard pictures are all taken care of. So if you want all your memory’s to be as fresh as they happening now then, this is a phone for you.

Battery Life: Have not gotten a full review of the battery strength but it is the same kind of battery that powers the A2 that also powers this device. And looking at the A2’s strength and also the screen size and the rate of consumption due to it screen size, I would say they should have had something a little bit above the regular. All the same like I said have not really gotten a full review on the battery strength so let’s still give it a thumbs up. And for battery suckers like me, this device comes with a power bank like other Tecno A phones.

Price: The Tecno Phantom A3 has a reasonably pocket friendly price considering the top tech specifications.
