Splitscreen for Your Android Device

There was a time I read about a Samsung device having a feature called "Split Screen" A feature that allows user do some things, say :Browsing and watching movie at the same time: Then, I was like, damn, Thats cool, yeah! So now, even tho I use a SGT2. I still havnt seen that feature. But now, I think, almost EVERY ANDROID DEVICE can have that feature. Yes! But how?
...
There are these two apps from the same Developer - GPC
Gplayer & Floating Browser.

These two apps can perform their funtion while floating on the screen of your device. You can resize them, move them to a particular place, do some other stuffs while they just do their work.

So visit the Playstore and get the following apps.
Gplayer - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gpc.myweb.hinet.net.PopupVideo&hl=en

Floating app - https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gpc.myweb.hinet.net.PopupWeb&hl=nl

With these two apps, you can watch movies while still surfing the web.

See a screenshot of these apps in action.

The windows can also be resized to anysize to quickly perform another task..

New Android User? Read This!!! (Part 1)

"Congratulations on your new Android device" That was how a friend greeted me when i also got my first android phone. So i'm saying same to you if you fall in the New Android User category.

The device is a smartphone, so you the holder gotta be smart too (lol.) Nevermind!
Would like to let you know the device you're having is a very high level of potential in serving.

What do you expect from the Big G.???

Would like to share with you some essential settings and apps you should be having on your device to get you smart on the go.

You would like to the device you have is a power and data hungry beast! Yes, the simple formular is 

Android + Power + Data = Genuis
Android - Power - Date = Toy

Even HTC would state in their manual that you need an unlimited data plan to enjoy their device.

So, you got the phone, data is ready, power is on standby. Lets kick off

Log in your Play store and ready to pimp your smartphone.

Would like to suggest some neccessary setups. (Just an opinion) as you need to save battery life.

1. Brightness : Looking at the "battery use" in android devices, "Screen" seems to have the longest usage bar. Yes, Display, so to save more battery, lets set up some display settings to ease the lynching of the battery life. Leaving the screen backlight at the lowest would be perfect but if your the type that use the phone anywhere (like in the daylight outside) you can set to auto so the sensor can switch between levels in indoor and outdoor situations. Also, untick the "Auto-rotate screen"

2. Sync : Set the sync time intervals to longer time as short sync time can be draining battery real good. You can also choose to sync manually.

3. GPS ; If you're not the type that uses Map all the time, You can de-activate the gps.

4. WiFi : Leaving the wifi on can also hinder long-lasting battery-life. Activate only when needed. There are apps that can manage wifi. Apps can help you switch off the wifi when its not in use.

5. Data : Also, setting the data connection type at lower eg 2G would also do great in saving more battery juice

Ok! For settings, thats a lil you can try out to optimize your device battery life.

Later, i would be sharing tips on how to enhance the BatteryLife/Device with some applications. Stay tuned. Always check here for more tips. (Part 2)

If you enjoyed the tips, pls share with others, like, and comment.
Also, should you have any additional tip and suggestion for us, we'll be very greatful. Kindly use the form on the right hand pane to reach us.

How to Auto-Hide Your Taskbar on Windows 7/Vista

How to autohide your taskbar on windows 7

We’ll be looking at auto-hiding the taskbar on windows 7 (also works on the Vista )

This is a very simple task to a lot of people but for the sake of few who can’t, because it took me a while too to get it. Since then, I prefer that auto-hide gesture.

So here are the steps:

I’ ll assume you’ve booted up your pc to the desktop.

Now look at the task bar on the base of your monitor

Right click on any blank space on the task bar (where theres no icon)

                               A menu list pops out, select “Properties”

A setting dialogue window opens

Just tick the "Auto-hide the task bar" click on apply!

There you go!!! Taskbar Hidden.

To see the taskbar, simply move the mouse-arrow the taskbar location and it should pop out and back in when you remove the mouse-arrow.

Please, comment or share if this helped you.

Battery Consumption Illustration by Snapdragon (Video)

I was just cruising this cool afternoon when when i saw this video on Youtube by Snapdragon; a giant CPU manufacturer. So i decided to share with my readers.

The video was illustrated to show how Chipset works and how much power they consume which leaves effects on the battery life of our smartphones. A device (dont know which device) having the Dual-Core Snapdragon Chipset on was compared with a competitor having a Quad-Core chipset. Both were connected to a power monitor.

The smartphone batteries were bypassed. That way, both phones are fed the same voltage (3.7 volts). The boxes are also able to measure the current passing through the phones. A call was then placed to each phone so you can see how much current is being used during the phones calls. With the displays on and off, the Qualcomm Snapdragon smartphone is the least power-hungry in the modem department compare to its competitor. 

Watch the video and see the results for yourself.

How to Hard Reset the Blackberry Playbook.

The Blackberry Playbook is a tablet by RIM. Its has got some cool features and specs. Since Blackberry smartphones and gadgets are prone to getting stuck and others resulting to Hard Reseting them, lets see how the action can be performed on the above device. On the blackberry smartphones, just a Battery Pull would do but since the BlackBerry PlayBook does not have a removable battery it makes it impossible to perform a true hard reset of pulling the battery like you can on BlackBerry smartphones. The device has got a Power Button, Volume Up, Play/Pause Button and the Volume Down button. Some of these keys combination will perform a hardware reboot instead of a software reset on the BlackBerry PlayBook. 

To perform a hard reset on the BlackBerry PlayBook:

 Hold down the volume up key, volume down key, and power button at the same time and hold it for about 15 seconds. TIP: Its easier if you hit the volume up key then the volume down key and then the power key.

There you go!
