iPhone 5, 5C and iPad 4 Users in Serious Trouble

The producer of iPhone 5, iPhone 5c and iPad 4 version –Apple, has confirmed that the users of the particular brand will be in trouble soon following planned introduction of a new operating system which would render the named phones useless. 
Recall the latest Apple OS is on the way and it's called iOS 11. While it's a good news for majority of Apple fans, it will be a heartbreak for users of old iOS devices.

According to Apple, iOS 11 will make iPhone 5, 5c and iPad 4 obsolete in terms of Apple ecosystem.
The software update (iOS 11) will run only on devices with a 64-bit processor, meaning it won’t be compatible with the guts of the iPhone 5 or iPhone 5c and iPad 4 that feature 32 bit processors. 

However, the phone will still work, but users won’t be able to download the latest apps or security upgrades to protect against hackers and vulnerabilities. In other words, if you are still using and loving your iPhone 5, iPhone 5c or iPad 4 generation, it is time to ditch it out to your younger one or exchange it for a brand new iPhone 6 or 7.

This is a heartsick news to Apple device users with 32 bit processors, but in the world of technology, upgrading is essential.

This is shocking! Following the failure of Etisalat Nigeria to pay up its loan amounting N541 billion, a bunch of banks, led by Access Bank PLC and other Nigerian and foreign banks  have taken over the management of Etisalat NG effective from June 15th 2017.

Etisalat obtained the loans from 13 banks in 2013 which are; Guaranty Trust Bank, Access Bank, FCMB, Ecobank, Union bank, Stanbic IBTC Bank, Zenith Bank, UBA, Fidelity Bank, First Bank and other banks, to refinance its previous debt of $650 million in order to continue its network roll-out across the country.

Premium Times reported that, Etisalat didn’t meet up with the deadline given to them hence the effort of Emerging Markets Telecommunications Services, EMTS falls on deaf hears since they couldn’t reach precise agreement.

EMTS Holding BV, has up to June 23 to complete the transfer of 100 percent of the company’s shares in Etisalat to the United Capital Trustees Limited, the legal representative of the consortium of banks.

Etisalat Group, the parent company of Etisalat Nigeria has already announced the takeover  on Tuesday in a filing to the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange in Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirate.

Etisalat has been under pressure since the beginning of 2016 following the demand notice for the recovery of a $1.72 billion (about N541.8 billion) loan facility it obtained from a consortium of banks in 2015.

The current economy recession lastly nailed down the Etisalat NG, my most concern now is about their staffs… This is not good news at all!

Smartphones have become a major part of everyone's lifestyle. During the rainy season, a lot of people damage their smartphones as the rain drops sometimes find its way into smartphones through the open ports. The rain/water can be seen as a threat towards keeping your phone in a perfect condition.

Water and moisture are the killer of electronics. So we must use our smartphone very cautiously during the rainy season. Because, if water gets inside and you continue to use your phone then it will result in a permanent damage to its internal circuitry whose repair might burn in a hole in your pocket.

If you are not using a water resistant smartphone, it is very important to know how to protect your smartphone during the rainy season. Take a look at the 10 tips that we have compiled to help you protect your smartphone from water damage.

1. Get a Waterproof Case
A waterproof cover provides the ultimate protection so you can use your phone without any worries. While looking for new covers, look for a waterproof cover that encloses the ports as well.

It can be as cheap as $3 and if you’re in Nigeria, you can get it for as low as N1,500, available on Jumia Nigeria and Konga.

2. Use Zip Lock Pouches
If you haven't purchased a waterproof case for your smartphone, and you need to save your phone from the rain, you can use a zip lock pouch or bag. This is an ideal way to save your phone from getting damaged due to water, but ensure to lock the pouch carefully.

3. A Plastic Bag is a Life Saver
If you don't find a case or zip lock pouch, you can wrap your phone in a plastic bag that is lying around. It is better to keep a plastic bag handy in your bag all the time.


4. You Can Make a Balloon Case Too
You can buy a balloon from a nearby shop and use it a case to protect your phone from the rain water. Inflate the balloon and put your smartphone in it with the screen facing down and deflate it. That's it!

5. Don’t Use The Phone Unnecessarily
Most smartphone users are in constant habit of checking their smartphones after every few minutes for no reason at all. This increases the risk of getting your phone wet or even dropping in the flood.

6. Use A Headset
Touching your phone with wet hands is always an issue. If you must use receive a call on your smartphone, use a Bluetooth/Wireless Headsets to keep your smartphone protected from rain drops.

7. Always Carry a Hand Towel with You
If your smartphone gets wet accidentally, you can use the hand towel to wipe the water. Alternatively, you can also wrap the phone in the hand towel and put it in your bag to reduce the risk of water damage.

8. Carry a Spare Handset to Avoid Damage
During the rainy season, you can use an old phone or a basic handset to attend calls with the call forwarding option. This will keep your precious smartphone intact without any damage.

In Case the Phone Gets Wet:

9. Don't Charge the Phone
When you charge a wet phone, it might result in a short-circuit. This will fry the internal circuit and the connections on the main board and it might eventually damage the phone.

10. Use a Bowl of Uncooked Rice
As soon as your phone gets wet, immediately power it off, wipe and drain excess water, remove the battery, SIM/SD card and store it in a bowl or sack of uncooked rice. Leave it in the bowl or sack of rice for a couple of days so as to draw the moisture out completely. The method has been tested several times and confirmed working for the matter of contention.

If you are unsure whether your phone has become completely dry or not, then it would be best if you take it to a qualified engineer or customer-care center for a detailed water-lodgement inspection and making necessary repairs.

Infinix X603 Coming With 6GB Ram, 64GB ROM and 6-Inch HD Display

Infinixmobility is at it again, and as usual, they are coming out with another elegant smartphone. Right now, infinix is jumping straight to 6GB Ram! The device is put in an appearance with a model number of X603 and it’s scheduled to be launched next week.

The device according to the benchmarking tool boasts of huge 6GB of RAM and 64GB of storage. Our guess is, this might turn out to be the Infinix Zero 5 or Zero 5 Plus.

Though the real name of the smartphone wasn't specified yet, we have a clue here; since the current Infinix Zero 4 Plus has a model number of X602, an indication that the listed infinix phone belongs to the Zero series. It suggests that this yet-to-be announced device could be Infinix Zero 5 or Zero 5 Plus.

The tool also listed the Infinix X603 having the MediaTek Helio P25 with a maximum clock speed of  2.3GHz. The MediaTek Helio P25 which is also known as MT6757 is an Octa-core processor equipped with Mali-T880 dual GPU.

The Infinix X603 also boasts a 6-inch screen having a Full HD display and 1920 by 1080 pixels resolution. It is powered by Android 7.0 Nougat with an overlay of XOS Chameleon-Infinix’s custom UI and 4500mAh battery.

According to GFXbench, the device features 12-megapixel sensor with autofocus and face detection support together with a Dual LED flash. While at the front there is a 5MP selfie snapper with 2k Video recording.

Now, it’s important to note that this listing doesn’t confirm that this is indeed the Infinix Zero 5 or zero 5 Plus, but looking at model numbers of the Infinix Zero 4 Plus, it’s possible that this is actually the successor to the Infinix Zero 4 Plus (X602) family. In short, take this with a grain of salt, at least for now.

If the information on  GFXBench turns out to be true, the Infinix X603 will no doubt compete with the high-end devices this year.

What do you guys think of the Specification details of the Infinix X603?

There always comes the time when we, Android users, having problems installing apps. Most of us notice it when downloading the lastest and greatest app. If you got the error message “Can't be installed. Try again”. There are various things that could cause a problem when you try to install apps. Check the information below to see if any of these tips solve the issue and allows you to install apps again.

1. Check your phone has enough space for the app
If you have a lot of other apps, videos or photos on your device, it could be using up most of your available memory. Check the needed size of the app you want to install and whether you have enough space for it.
You can check this by going to Settings, then Storage.

2. Your phone’s cache could be causing the problem
Delete the Google Play Store’s cache and data on your Android device and try installing the app again. To delete the cache go to Settings > Apps or application mamager, and All (swipe to the right to find this list). Then look for Google Play Store and tap on it, then click on Storage. Tap on Clear data. Just below that, you should see Clear cache, which you should also tap.


3. Your Android OS is too old and needs updating
Some apps will only work with later OS updates. Try updating your phone and then attempting to install the app again.
You can update your Android’s operating system by going to Settings >About phone and then Software updates. You should see the new update, then select the update and install.


4. A factory reset of your phone may fix the problem
In some cases, resetting your Android device might solve the problem. Before you do that though, make sure everything important on your phone has been backed up so that you can recover it after the reset.
To reset your phone, go to Settings> Backup & reset, and then press Factory data reset.


5. You’re using a screen dimming app
It’s quite common to use an app to adjust your screen’s brightness or the colour of its light. If you are using an app like this, it may be the reason you aren’t able to install Android apps. If you’re seeing the Install button but can’t click on it, this is most likely the problem you are having.

The reason for this is the way these screen dimming apps work. In order to adjust your screen’s output, the app actually adds an additional graphic element on top of your ordinary display. When your phone detects this, it disables the Install button. This is a security measure designed to protect you from malicious software. If it didn’t do this, malware could use an overlay to trick you into doing anything it wanted.

It is important for you to disable such screen-dimming app. Once you have installed the app you want, you can enable the screen-dimming app again, and enjoy your Android.
