Purchased a PC monitor to replace the ageing Samsung 17" CRT. Make: Dell ... 3yr onsite warranty Size: 18.5" Display Type: LED backlit LCD Resolution: 1366 x 768 Performance: Works as expected. I think there's not much to write about performance in these LCD montiors unless they are full HD. All look the same (they come in same resolution).

Hardware Purchase Suggestion Requests
amtrag replied to hiteshkkk1's topic in General Technical Discussion
Hi, I have to upgrade my PC monitor from tube to LCD (LED). It will be a 19" montior. But confused between Samsung, Viewsonic, Dell, Benq etc. Which is better in terms of performance, long term hassle-free usage and least price? Any particular model that some body can suggest? -

I doubt the assumption. IMHO, LPG, even without subsidy, will continue to be much much cheaper than electricity. Sent from my XT800 using Tapatalk 2 I second this. The unit rate for electricity increases for higher slabs. In my city, the second slab starts at >300 units per month. So while comparing the costs, consider the rate for the slab the projected consumption will fall into, and not the rate at which that you are currently paying.- 6,376 replies

Feel sorry for you Fevin. You lost so much money without anybodies mistake. Kids are kids, we cannot blame them Same thing happened with me. My 4 year old kid purchased some addons in Angry birds. Fortunately, the two purchases were only of $2 & $3 each. Now I have also enabled "use pin for purchase". Also as a safety precaution, now I disable data before handing over the phone to the kids.

True. If Jobs were there, this map-gate would not have happened in the first place. So even his arrogance was not without justification. Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk

Another issue people are reporting is "no sim" message. The sim is recognised after restarting the phone, but same error returns after some time. Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk

SANDISK 16 GB - 430 http://www.shopclues...e-en.html though the link name (clone??) makes me a little suspicious The website is genuine. I had ordered 16GB transcend Micro SD and received within 3 days. And it was a genuine product. And many FMs have a good experience.- 6,376 replies

Must Have Android Apps For Your Smartphone - Part II
amtrag replied to rajanmehta's topic in Android
Of late, I have observed that the app updates from G Play, downloading on the phone are very small. Yesterday I updated FB app on Tab2, which showed size of appx 11MB but update completed after downloading 1 or 2 MBs only. Has google started pushing incremental updates now? If so, its a very good thing.- 1,081 replies

Must Have Android Apps For Your Smartphone - Part II
amtrag replied to rajanmehta's topic in Android
I, for one, always keep the GPS radio off unless using any map for navigation, ie. finding the way from point A to B. GPS consumes a lot of battery. And DOT sensors are out of question in India in the foreseeable future. I don't feel traffic info would be having minimum accuracy needed to take decisions based on it. Though I expect the accuracy to improve in the future.- 1,081 replies

This will benefit Samsung in the long run. 1. It will be forced to develop (read innovate instead of copying). So that people will buy samsung devices not because they are "as good as Apple" but because they will be actually different. 2. All OS or software based infringements are valid for all Android phones. Hence, other smaller android players like HTC, LG etc will also suffer and Samsung will benefit because of its deep pockets. 3. These lawsuits have given Samsung lots of publicity and put Samsung on a pedestal equal to Apple. 4. Most of the devices which were named are already released and now Samsung would already have started working on newer ones that either do not infringe a patent or they will pay royalty to Apple. Both ways, customer will benefit too.

Apple has discontinued Youtube on iOS as a preloaded app. Earlier, it had also stopped using Google maps. Its a divorce and now Apple wants alimony from Google

Its resolution is just 480x800. Try playing an HD video and you will know the true worth (rather worthlessness) of the display. Sent from my ADR6300 using Tapatalk- 6,376 replies

Upgrading Firmware For HTC Droid Incredible to 2.3 Gingerbread
amtrag replied to jewrajka's topic in HTC
If you handset is rooted & S-off, you wont be able to install the OTA. -
Well done Sujit. More than the materiality of the punishment, it is the act of setting an example by transferring the erring officer that will act as a deterrent. Hope it sends a strong message to all such railway personal that this kind of behaviour will not be tolerated anymore.
-
I dont understand this. Does pressing #09 or #90 lets the handset transmit all necessary details like IMEI etc and the other party is able to collect these for cloning. Hence I doubt whether there is substance in this TOI article. Still I would better be safe than sorry.

Upgrading Firmware For HTC Droid Incredible to 2.3 Gingerbread
amtrag replied to jewrajka's topic in HTC
Any noticeable change post updating? I am already on ICS, so no official updates for my dinc. can u post a detailed guide for updating dinc to ics. with pros and cons thanx @cavarun, I too am a noob as far as ROM flashing thingy is considered and am still learning. I would suggest to head straight to xda-forums development section, link given below. Important prerequisite: Phone should be rooted and s-off. http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=638 I found the "Unofficial CM9" ROM to be most stable although I have tried AOKP and currently on Abduction 2.1 Pros are that your phone is up to date with latest Android version. Con is that FM radio is not available, video recording only works with a 3rd party app and occassional freezes and random reboots. And battery life is somewhat lower than GB. -
USB audio out means using external usb DAC with an android device would soon be a reality. Wow.
