Reasons Why You Should Choose Samsung Galaxy S3 Over iPhone 5

To the dismay of Apple fans, the much expected iPhone 5 came out with little or nothing to offer. There were countless rumors before the actual release, lots of leaked photos were seen and the anticipation was just rather too much. The hype died the very day iPhone 5 was released and lots of iOS users were disappointed. Though statistics shows that the device sold millions in the first day, that shouldn’t be enough reason to go for it. Samsung Galaxy S3, which is seen as a close competitor, is a much better alternative. If you’re wondering if you should still go for iPhone 5 or Samsung Galaxy S3, these points below should convince you.


1. A much bigger screen

Samsung Galaxy S3 comes with a 4.8 inch screen and this makes doing certain things on mobile much more easy. With a wide screen, watching movies is much more enjoyable and everything looks so realistic. iPhone 5 comes with a tiny 4-inch screen with a resolution of 1,136×640 while Samsung Galaxy S3 has a generous 4.8-inch screen with 1,280×720 pixels resolution.

Run Java Apps On Android Devices

There are numerous people who have decided to stick permanently with their J2ME phones. This is simply because they do not want to lose their favourite Java apps. An old friend I hooked up with yesterday has a similar experience. He had to stop a particular activity because he couldn’t get the Android version of the J2ME application.

By default, Android devices cannot run Java apps(.jar or .jad). Many of you might as well be looking for a way to run your favourite Java apps on your Android phones. There are two “personally tried” methods you can apply to get this done:

NetMite

Netmite is an online service that helps you convert your .jar/.jad apps to the .apk file extension which is recognized by Android.
This is the first service I tried and it worked perfectly for me.

Follow the following instructions to enjoy Netmite:
-Visit Netmite for android’s website here
-You need to first of all download the Java app runner for Android to your device. Without this installed, no java app will run on your device even after you’ve converted it to .apk. So, Download it now. Then install it normally on your Android device.
-Get the .jar/.jad of your Java app on your computer and upload here. Or just copy the URL of your .jar/.jad file and paste it in the space provided on Netmite’s Conversion page.
-Your .jar/.jad app should now be uploaded and converted to .apk. Upon completion, your .apk extension will download.
-You can then install your converted app to your Android device normally.

Jbed 1.20 for Android

Jbed 1.20 is an Android app which allows you to install and run Java apps. This approach is easier, preferred and recommended, at least from my experience with the two. JBed 1.20 can run on Android 1.5 – 2.3 devices with each version having it’s Jbed 1.20 version. Select the download link of your Android device below to download Jbed.

CheckPoints is available for Android users as well as Apple devices such as iPhone and iPodTouch. Once this app is downloaded you can view a list of products in your local area businesses. Your job is to find these products at the business listed, scan the bar code with your phone and CheckPoints gives you points in exchange for your work. You can also earn points just for ‘checking in’ when you are at affiliated locations. These points can be turned into cash rewards or gift certificates. Many people enjoy the hunt of finding the products and find the earnings to be an added bonus.

Android : How (and when) to clear app cache or data


Apps sometimes can misbehave. Before you go reaching for that task killer (don't do it!) here's something else to try. Above is the screen you'll see if you go to Settings>Applications>Manage appliations and tap on an app. You've got a bunch of buttons and numbers. The top buttons are pretty self-explanatory -- force stop makes an app quit. Uninstall either uninstalls an app -- or if it's permanently loaded onto the phone (like the Android Market should be), you'll have the option to uninstall updates.

Android Won't Download Apps (Android Market Stuck at Downloading)

Various solutions have been discovered, and these are listed below. As you can see from the responses I've had, every one of them has some chance of solving the problem. The simplest (and most convenient) solutions come first, so I recommend working through them from top to bottom. Please tell me if any of these solutions work for you - your information will be useful to the many other people experiencing this problem.

First, check your available space (Settings -> SD Card & phone storage). If space is low, solutions (d) or (i) will probably work for you. The problem may re-occur if your space runs out again though - consider investing in a better memory card!

a) Restart your phone.[17 people told me this worked]
Restart your phone by switching it off and switching it back on again (not just the screen - you need to shut it down!).

b) Make sure your phone is not on a Wi-Fi network.[20 people told me this worked]
Some Wi-Fi networks may block port 5228, used by the Android Market. If your phone is connecting to the Market via a Wi-Fi network, turn it off (Settings -> Wireless & networks -> Turn off Wi-Fi) and

It's 2012 already and the impact Android had on the overall mobile eco system in the year 2011 was nothing short of spectacular.

Remove Internet Security 2012 Malware (Uninstall Guide)

Internet Security 2012 is a fake antivirus program that pretends to scan your computer for malicious software and asks you to pay for said software in order for it to be able to remove spyware, Trojan horses and other high-threat nasties. Some end users came across this obnoxious virus a while ago. Turns out they were searching for a way to download popular movies. Visiting shady and infected websites is one of the most common ways to get infected with scareware or ever worse, password stealing Trojans and adware.

You really shouldn't browse such websites, because they are usually less than legal. Anyway, I'm sure you have seen one of these infections in the past. The problem is that they can look very convincing and hold the system hostage. Internet Security 2012 designed to protect wouldn't allow certain programs to run claiming they are infected, even though this is not the case. The fake AV infection blocks legit anti-virus software and may even hide certain files to make it look like your computer is really messed up.



Once executed, Internet Security displays a bunch of fake security warnings and notifications. The fake warnings has several sings that they are not legitimate. Some of the statements just don't make sense, full of misspellings.

Protect Your Privacy With Wise Folder Hider


If you share a computer with someone else, or you are in an environment in which someone else could access your computer, you’ll be aware of the need to protect your privacy. In the case of shared computers, it is easy enough to set up individual user account for everyone, each of which can be password protected and will effectively keep everyone’s files separate.
Having a folder on your desktop called ‘My super-secret files’ in which you store all of your private documents, financial information, journal entries and personal photographs is almost asking someone with prying eyes to take a peek inside. Wise Folder Hider is a free privacy tool that can be used to conceal private files and folders very quickly and easily.
The thinking behind the program is that by completely hiding files from sight – rather than just encrypting or password protecting them – you remove the element of temptation and you therefore all but eliminate the risk that someone will rifle through your documents.

Downloading and Getting Started

Fire up your web browser and pay a visit to the Wise Folder Hider web site, hover the mouse over the Products link at the top of the page and click the Wise Folder Hider entry.
Click the Free Download button and save the executable to the folder of your choice; weighing in at less than 2MB you won’t have long to wait.
Wise Folder Hider is available for free download

How to Browse the Web Anonymously With Tor Project


The internet is an amazing tool for entertainment, research and so much more, but it is also something of a security problem. Whenever you are online, you leave behind traces of your activity – footprints that can be pieced together to determine a great deal of information about your such as where you are and who you are.
There are endless reasons why you might not want to be identified or traceable online – it is not something that is only going to be of interest to people investigating the darker side of the internet. While all web browsers include options that can be used to hide your web tracks after an online session, most do little if anything to prevent the web sites you visit from gathering information about you and your browsing habits that could be used to identify you – this is where Tor Project is different.

What is Tor?

Tor is a combination of free software and a web traffic routing network that can be used to conceal your identity and location. When you download the bundle you not only get a control panel that can be used to route your web traffic through a series of random nodes online, you also get  customized version of Firefox that features a number of add-ons to further bolster security.
Tor Browser is a web security tool available free of charge

Free Facebook Credits

http://www.4loot.com/?id=358813&src=em www.4loot.com

Have you ever wondered how you can get free facebook Credits?



4loot is a website where you can search the web (based on the yahoo search engine). Every time you use their site to do a search, you have a chance to win 4loot coins. After you earn so many 4loot coins, you can trade them in for Facebook credits. The process of getting 4loot coins is easy and relatively simple. The first thing you need to do is Go here www.4loot.com/ and click “Connect” on the top right hand corner of 4loot’s main page. This will allow you to connect your Facebook account with 4loot.
Once you have linked your Facebook account with 4loot, then you can get free 4loot coins, and turn 4loot coins into Facebook Credits. Every time you search, you have a chance to earn between (0-50) 4loot coins. Most of the time, you’ll earn between 0-2 coins, but there is always a chance to win up to 50 at a time.

Besides searching the web, there are a couple of other ways 4loot allows you to get 4loot coins. Every day, they have something called the “Question of the Day”. They will ask a question through their Facebook page. If you answer their question, you’ll win some 4loot coins. You answer the question by doing a search for the answer. If the question is, “Who is the new boss of The Office”, do a search for “Will Ferrell”. They’ll send the question as a status update from their Facebook page. If you “like” their Facebook page, the question will appear on your news feed. There are a limited number of people each day who will get coins for answering the question, and 4loot will update their status to tell you when the “Question of the Day” contest is over.

Swagbucks 101: How to Earn Free Gift Cards



I've been using point-earning websites for years. I've searched, answered e-mails and participating in offers on various websites to earn points and turn those points into gift cards. In fact, during some of our hardest financial times, I have used those gift cards to pay for birthday and Christmas gifts for nearly my entire family.

While it may seem silly to some, earning points and turning them into cash or gift cards is a huge deal! Out of all of the websites I have used, I have found Swagbucks.com to be the most generous. You can earn points quickly and easily in fact, many of the giveaways on our site come from gift cards I've earned via Swagbucks.

How to get started:

1. Sign up for Swagbucks

2. Install the Swagbucks toolbar and use the search bar just like you would use google or any other search engine. You'll find special codes will appear and those will give you points.

3. Participate in special offers, or search out codes on the Swagbucks blog.

4. Invite your friends! Yep, while they earn points, you'll earn too because they signed up using your referral link.

5. After you've earned points, redeem them in the Swag Store. You can get anything from Travelocity gift cards to Amazon, CVS, Paypal and much more!

Trust me, once you start, you'll be addicted!
