Patience is sacrosanct. Tstv Africa is gradually telling us that they are putting everything in the right proportion including the channels that will glue us to our TV set. We heard the rumor that the first set of TStv Decoders were sold in Abuja at yesterday 6th of October. Just like they promised bein sport is live and direct from Qatar, the picture quality is gorgeous and I can’t wait to lay my hands on TStv Decoder (flat type).

I know you will like to understand what I mean by the word "flat type". There are two types of TStv decoder, the first one is the box type (the one that looks like a cooler with 3G service) and the second one is the flat type (it comes with a camera and 4.5g service).

Windows Phone is Dead as Microsoft Ends support

Bad news for Windows Phone users, in case the lack of new phones or software updates didn’t already clue you in, Microsoft has shut down any efforts to keep Windows Mobile 10 alive.


Vice President of Operating Systems Joe Belfiore revealed the company is no longer developing new features or hardware for Windows 10 Mobile.

Belfoire broke the news in a series of tweets. Said that Microsoft will keep supporting the OS with bug fixes, but new features or hardwares will not be introduced for its users.



In the following tweet, Joe Belfiore explained the decision. He says that developers never really backed up the platform and Microsoft could not find partners to work with. Along with the low number of users and this makes them not to invest on the platform.

For those who still using Windows Mobile 10, Belfiore said Microsoft will continue to support those customers with regular bug fixes and security updates. But don’t expect anything more than that.

The company has now concentrated on improving the link between the phone and the PC. The edge browser is another project that is making its way to Android and iOS with its rival (Android and iOS) hence the failure.

If you’re still using a phone powered by Windows Phone 8.1 then you now belong in the same camp as those people persevering with the also-dead Windows XP.

There are two ways to enjoy an online live streaming these days with your smartphone. One is to pay for services like Netflix, Holo, HBO Now etc. And the second one is to look for Apps. Mobdro App is one of the recommended apps which most of us have been enjoy for long without paying anything.

Mobdro is a tool that constantly looks for free video streams available on the web and makes them accessible on your mobile device. If you are in love to enjoy the videos anytime and anywhere, Mobdro is the best app for you enjoy on your smartphone.

I downloaded the Mobdro V2.0.48 through the Mobdro official website, when testing the app, I noticed the app is completely free of ads. It seems the company forgot to insert the ads inside the app during the updating, because another version, which is Mobdro Version 2.0.52 was just released and that came with ads. 

Mobdro V2.0.48 is no more available for downloading on the Mobdro official website, but I have the APK version of it for you guys to download and feel the premium features of Mobdro without paying a dime.

In terms of specifications, the flagship smartphone might feature a 6-inches display, 4GB/6GB RAM, 64GB ROM, fingerprint scanner, and Android 7.1 Nougat. According to image renders, it looks like the phone will feature dual rear camera setup of 21 megapixels.

The recent device of the Flagship family Phantom 6 Plus has remained a Beast and it is hoped that the New Phantom 8 will be a super Beast. Meanwhile, if you want to enjoy major goodies that follow a smartphone like privilege to upgrade to any latest Android OS earlier, always buy flagships.

Every year, there is an addition to that smartphone be it hardware to software to make it more efficient and useful. One such addition is the fingerprint scanner. Top Smartphone manufacturers are now more aware than ever of what their customers want and understanding that security is one of the top-most concerns as all personal data is in the smartphone, they have started offering a fingerprint sensor in some of their Smartphones. You typically use it to unlock your phone but did you know that it can be configured for other functions as well?

Unlocking isn't the only thing a fingerprint sensor can do. It is made to use for different purpose, including sliding notifications, taking pictures and other functionalities. Today, we are going to see on how to capture a picture using the fingerprint scanner. 
 
To Take Selfie/Photos Using Fingerprint scanner on Android smartphone
1. You will have to install an app dubbed Dactyl – Fingerprint Camera from the Play Store. The app is available in a free trial, which offers 10 usages, after which you will have to buy the full version (560.00 NGN or 1.99 USD) of the app.
2. Once you have installed the app on your device, you can open it and the app will welcome you with different slides informing you about the app.

3. The main page of the app shows you the various camera apps it supports along with a button to “Open Settings Page” to give it accessibility permissions.


4. You can scroll down to see the camera apps that are supported by Dactyl and you can even tap on the “Unsupported Apps” button to see the apps not supported by the fingerprint camera app. You can also request the developer to support your favorite camera app through the “Request New App” button.

5. After you have given the app permissions, you can open the camera app on your device and you should see a message saying “Dactyl service running“.

6. Then, you can just rest your finger on the fingerprint sensor, like you do to unlock your phone, to capture a photo.

Video calling is about as easy as it can possibly get these days. You can do it on computers, mobile devices, and even tablets. It’s popular and widespread enough that you even have options. There are plenty of options available for those looking to video chat with their friends or family. Or even strangers if you want.

Duo and allo sound nice. But most of my friends don't use them. WhatsApp seems to be the one of the most popular messaging apps ever. It's one of only a few that can boast over one billion active users.

I can't even remember the last day I used my Google Duo video calling app, because I'm already okay with the Whatsapp's integrated voice calling, video calling, and tons of other features. Now, Google wants to play smart, they want to present you with something more simpler without opening any app, something you’ll love.


Google is rolling out simpler video calling on mobile for Android users. Those wanting to make a video call will be able do so straight from the Phone, Contacts, and Android Messages apps. The integration is as tight as you’d expect with the option to start video presented in the same list of options where you’d call or text a contact. 

Google says it will add a function later that allows you to upgrade an ongoing voice call to video with a single tap.

Google also revealed that users will be directed to ViLTE video calls if both the parties are using a carrier that supports the feature. Primarily, Google's video calling app Duo will be the main app that will make video calls to anyone with the app installed.

Requirements
Google clears that users will have to run the latest versions of the Phone (v13.0), Contacts (v2.1), and Android Messages (v2.6) app to support the feature. The new video call feature will be currently visible to users running Android 7.0 Nougat and above

The integrated video calling feature is already rolling out to Pixel, Pixel 2, Android One, and Nexus phones. Google is working with carriers to make the feature available on other Android devices, but the company hasn’t given a specific timeline.

Samsung Unveils its First Ever Triple-lens Camera Smartphone – Galaxy A7

The Korean electronics giant has unveiled its just done smartphone, it is known as Galaxy A7, a midrange smartphone with a rear triple camera that features a trio of settings.

Samsung Galaxy A7 boasts a triple-lens setup that features a 24MP primary camera with a F/1.7 aperture, an 8-megapixel shooter with a 120-degree ultra-wide field of view, and a 5MP “depth” module used for bokeh effects. There’s also a 24MP front-facing cam with an LED flash and "Selfie Focus" effect for adding bokeh. But being a mid-range device, there’s a noticeable absence of a telephoto lens.

One high-end feature the A7 does have is Intelligent Scene Optimizer, which debuted on the Galaxy S9. This automatically recognizes what you’re pointing the camera at and adjusts the camera settings to produce the best image quality.

Aside of Cameras, Galaxy A7 features a 6-inch Super AMOLED display with 1080 x 2220 pixel resolution and no notch. The phone uses an octa-core 2.2 GHz CPU paired on an unnamed chipset and comes in three different memory configurations – 4GB/64GB, 4GB/128GB or 6GB/128GB.
NFC for Samsung Pay, and a 3300mAh battery. There’s even a fingerprint sensor on the side, Dolby Atmos support, and Bixby—though there’s no dedicated button for the AI, which some may see as a plus point. All in all, some pretty impressive specs for a mid-range handset.

Key Features of Galaxy A7
  • Display            6-inch (1,080 x 2,220) AMOLED
  • Processor         Octa-core 2.2GHz

Airtel 4G Band Frequency
One thing that limits the use of Glo 4G in Nigeria was because it was launched on band 28 which isn’t supported by most 4G enabled devices in Nigeria. Though some Infinix and Tecno phones that are recently launched to support the band frequency.

On the other hand, MTN and 9Mobile launched their 4G service on Band 20 and 3 which are supported by most 4G enabled phones in Nigeria.

I'm glad to let you know that the recently launched Airtel 4G LTE has been on Band 3, Frequency 1800MHz which is supported by virtually all Tecno, Infinix, Gionee, itel, Nokia and Xiaomi 4G enabled phones.
