The deadly blue whale game is still taking young kids and teens live. It has spread a panic among the people worldwide. The game is based on the 50-day countdown that includes tasks such as player has to watch the horror movie and so on until the last task. The most horrific part of the game is the last task to commit suicide, usually via live stream. It is also stated that players are manipulating to participate in the game through a game master that dealing with the players online. This social media deadly trend occurs exclusively online. Therefore we are lacking with to connect it to specific cases.

A Short Introduction to New Social Media Trend

It is an online media game that bucks up people to do some tasks and when a player starts doing it and at the end encourages players to do suicide. On Instagram, there are dozens of posts are presently related this deadly and dangerous game. According to information, we have accumulated; the online game admin provides players almost 50 tasks that a player has to complete each task at each day. There are certain kinds of tasks such as self-harming, to view the scary movies and walking around midnight and the last one is to commit suicide. After assigning a number of back to back tasks, admin starts providing hard tasks till the task of suicide. According to the reports, the NSPCC young kids and teens should don’t bother to follow their peer’s footsteps that lead them into real danger.

“Young kids may get themselves in real danger while completing the Blue Whale game tasks”, an official stated that. So, therefore they should avoid that sort of games rather than compromise their lives. On another hand, “parents should teach their kids and teens that don’t put themselves in any activity in the online world or real world that can harm them badly”, he further said that. Teach young kids and teens don’t bother with the words that translate them as cowards, just say no to the activities which are less protective. Parents also teach their kids how to make affirm decisions rather than getting into the challenges such as “Blue Whale Challenges”.

On another hand, Gonzalez’s parents, who come to know that their young child commits suicide in his closet, and parents know that it happened due to the Blue Whale Game challenge.

A victim’s father Jorge Gonzales has found that a death of his son was broadcasting the whole incident. Later on, he further found that his son Isaiah has sent a number of photos of already completed tasks of Blue Whale Challenge to their friends. “All the stuff was related to satanic and stuff like that and my son was never into it, Gonzales stated to a local Texas news station.

CNN has reported another case of suicide due to the deadly Blue Whale; a young 16-years old girl took her life. The internet game has destroyed the piece of the number of families over the year, according to the reports.

If we consider the both of the incidents Georgia and Texas interconnected to the Blue whale game, then it would be the first to Americans deaths has taken by the deadly Blue Whale Challenge.

There are people in the majority who think that it is not more than just a rumor or a story of millennial urban legend story to scare the parents. Anyhow, a high school in Alabama don’t take the news and stories of Blue Whale Challenge at lighter note and tell the parents that they should keep their kids and teens safe and tell them to avoid Blue Whale Game, the same kind of warnings has been made by the police department of Florida, Miami and even in the United Kingdom. On another hand, law enforcement agencies also pay their attention positively and tell the parents to monitor their child’s online presence by using the cell phone or PCs monitoring app to the fullest.

What Should Parents Do?

Parents should use the cell phone and windows monitoring app in order to track all the activities of young kids and teens. It enables parents to view the social media activities of kids and teens by using the IM’s social media of the monitoring software. The user will be able to view the IM’s logs, IM’s conversations, shared media files such as photos and videos. Parents will be able to get the screenshots of the activities remotely and they will be able to do the live screen recording of the cell phone or PC they are using at the moment. Parents can view browsing histories that enable them to know what sort of websites and apps their kids are visiting.

Conclusion:

Blue Whale Challenge is the direct victimization of young kids and teens, parents should monitor kid’s online presence by using the cell phone tracking software.

4 COMMON ITEL (ANDROID) PHONE PROBLEMS; HOW TO FIX THEM AND OPTIMIZE YOURS FOR BETTER PERFORMANCE

I’m dedicating this to those who want to enjoy and explore the Android experience but are not buoyant enough to exit entry level smartphones. Itel now has models running on Mediatek and Spreadtrum so you can tag along if you have any Mediatek (MTK) or Spreadtrum (SPD) entry level smartphone you wish to optimize for a better experience.

1. STORAGE SPACE RUNNING OUT

Messaging might not send or receive messages until more space is available on your device. Some system functions may not work. This is one of the first hurdles you’ll encounter once you’ve started installing apps.

What is this error and why am I getting it?

Your phone has an internal storage where apps and their data are installed to / saved. The problem here is that its a partition which is allocated a limited space so you could have a lot of space on your external SD card and Phone storage but still encounter this error. The root of this error is that you’ve used up the allotted space for apps and their data either due to that space being too small or you having installed too many apps.

Solution

1. Adoptable Storage: This enables you use your external SD card as an extension of your internal storage
2. Clear app data: The phone needs to first be rooted then the internal storage analyzed for apps (and their data) consuming a lot of space using Link2SD. I once recovered 3.72 GB from clearing just one app’s data
3. Delete media and uninstall unneeded apps: Delete heavy media files saved to phone / internal storage or move them to external SD card. Also uninstall all unneeded apps under Settings > Apps
4. Factory Reset: First, backup your important stuff. Go to Settings > Accounts and delete your Google account to avoid Factory Reset Protection (FRP) . Go to Settings > Backup & reset to wipe the phone or boot into recovery mode and do a factory reset

2. LAGGING / HANGING

Slight lagging is something to expect with use but its particularly terrible on low RAM phones. This could result in frequent restarts or unfortunately **** has stopped errors.

Why is my Itel phone lagging / hanging seriously?

Well, first off, Itel isn’t exactly notorious for being generous with RAM on their models. Apart from the Itel S11 Plus , Itel Wish A41 Plus , Itel S41, and maybe a model or two I forgot to mention (which I kind of doubt), Itel phones traditionally feature either 512 MB or 1GB of RAM. Now, the problem isn’t only the low RAM but also the system apps (Bloatware) which the phone is bombarded with from factory.

Solution

1. Debloat: First, you need to root your Itel phone then uninstall unneeded system apps using an app like Link2SD. I strongly recommend that you either have a compatible packet (pac) file / stock rom / firmware for your Itel phone or do a backup in custom recovery first so you can easily rollback incase the debloating exercise goes South
2. Create a ROM Zero: To create a stock flashable zip (ROM Zero), all you need is a custom recovery, stock boot.img and system.img . If you have the Mediatek firmware then you’ll find boot and system in the zip or rar file. For Spreadtrum pac files, you can extract the content of the pac file using Research or Upgrade Download tool.
3. Close apps not in use: Other than apps that have push notifications (e.g Email, Whatsapp, Hovatek app etc), ensure to exit apps currently not in use

3. OVERHEATING / QUICK BATTERY DRAIN

Unless you’re using an Itel phone with 5,000 mAh, you’re likely to encounter a relatively short battery time. This is often facilitated by or coupled with overheating. Someone exaggerated that he could cook beans with his Itel phone ? .

Why is my Itel phone overheating and battery draining so quickly

Low end / entry level phones don’t handle duress too well and overheating is one way they voice out. Its quite normal to notice your Itel phone warming up slightly while charging or using but if it gets really hot then there’s likely a hardware issue lurking in the dark. Low end phones with crappy hardware will overheat regardless of what you do but Itel isn’t exactly crappy.

Solution

1. Turn off radios not in use: If you’re not actively using your Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, Hotspot or 4G then turn them off
2. Watch the apps you run: Entry level phones aren’t for gaming so don’t push them. You should also reduce the number of apps you run at a time and check to be sure your phone isn’t infected with malware
3. Reduce screen brightness: Unless you’re a Mole, your screen doesn’t have to be so bright all the time
4. Pay attention to your Charger: If a particular charger makes your phone heat up significantly when charging then you should stay away from it

4. USB CONNECTION ISSUES

When it comes to USB connection, Spreadtrum (and by extension Itel phones) are another kettle of fish. Some of these issues also surface on Mediatek smartphones though.

What are the USB connection issues I might encounter on my Itel Android phone and how do I resolve them?

1. ADB detection issues: Getting ADB to detect your Spreadtrum phone requires an additional step which is to include your Spreadtrum Vendor ID in the adb_usb.ini file
2. MTP issues: An MTP issue could result in your PC being unable to detect your Phone storage and external SD card. Fixing this requires that you update your phone’s MTP drivers
3. Flashing tool detection issues: Before you attempt flashing a Mediatek or Spreadtrum device, you need to install the Mediatek VCOM or Spreadtrum Sciu2S drivers respectively. Unfortunately, that’s sometime not enough as you might still get errors which point at a detection (driver) error. In such a case, you’ll need to update the Mediatek or Spreadtrum phone’s drivers under Device Manager

Itel has made notable improvement and I believe they hold promise. I’m watching this brand keenly and only time will prove me right or right.

How To: Restore deleted iOS apps

From the beginning, I had my reservations about Apple products; no, it wasn’t because of the price(maybe a little, but that’s a rant for another time), but mainly it was because of things like this. Why would you have to re-purchase an app you already paid for just because you lost it(or uninstalled it)? At least that’s what you had to do until not-so-long ago when Apple finally let users restore deleted iOS apps directly from the App Store.

Here’s how:

On devices running iOS 11

• Launch the App Store
• Click on the prrofile icon at the top right corner.
• Tap on Purchased > My Purchases
• Choose Not on this iPhone.
• Select the app you wish to restore and hit the cloud icon.

On older versions of iOS

• Launch the App Store
• Tap on Updates-Purchased at the bottom menu.
• Select Not on this iPhone.
• Search for the app you want to restore and then tap on the coud icon.

Of course, you could always use the iTunes method

• Connect your iDevice to your PC or Mac then launch iTunes.
• Click on the device icon(should be somewhere in the sidebar), then select Apps > Install for the apps you need.
• Select Automatically Install New Apps if you want your apps on iTunes to sync with your iPhone whenever you connect.

And there you go! You don’t have to pay for an app twice(or more; depending on how frequently your apps get missing or uninstalled)!

Chinese scientists make breakthrough in replacing WiFi with LiFi

Chinese scientists have made a breakthrough in creating full-color emissive carbon dots (F-CDs), which brings them one step closer to developing a faster wireless communication channel that could be available in just six years.

According to  Wikipedia , Li-Fi is a bidirectional, high-speed and fully networked wireless communication technology similar to Wi-Fi.

Light Fidelity, known as LiFi, uses visible light from LED bulbs to transfer data much faster than radio wave-based WiFi.

While most current research uses rare earth materials to provide the light for LiFi to transmit data, a team of Chinese scientists have created an alternative — F-CDs, a fluorescent carbon nanomaterial that proves to be safer and faster.

“Many researchers around the world are still working on this. We were the first to successfully create it using cost-effective raw materials such as urea with simple processing,” said Qu Songnan, an associate researcher at Changchun Institute of Optics, Fine Mechanics and Physics, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, which leads the research.

Qu said rare earth has a long lifespan which reduces the speed of LiFi transmission. However, F-CDs enjoy the advantage of faster data transmission speeds.

In previous studies, carbon dots were limited to the emission of lights such as blue and green. The new nanomaterial that Qu’s team has developed can emit all light visible to the human eye, which is a breakthrough in the field of fluorescent carbon nanomaterial.

Qu said this is significant for the development of LiFi, which he expects to enter the market in just six years.

A 2015 test by a Chinese government ministry showed that LiFi can reach speeds of 50 gigabytes per second, at which a movie download can be completed in just 0.3 seconds.

Galaxy Note8 undergoes scratch, burn, and bend test

Now that Samsung’s Galaxy Note8 is starting to ship to eager customers who’ve pre-ordered it, it’s time for the JerryRigEverything YouTube channel to give us the results of its traditional scratch, burn and bend test. The Note8 is the latest device to fall victim to this torture test, and the full ordeal is embedded below for your viewing pleasure.

In case you can’t watch that, here’s a short summary. The Note8 comes off as sturdy. The glass scratches at exactly the hardness level you’d expect it to, and the handset is impossible to bend when normal levels of force are applied.

The screen flame test does result in permanent damage after around ten seconds (since unlike LCDs the AMOLED panel doesn’t recover), and the fingerprint scanner can be scratched. It does however still work even after that. Since the frame is metal, it means it can be scraped.

5 Ways To Enjoy Long Flights With Smartphones

Here are five ways your most dependable gadget – the smartphone -can help you kill time, even if you are not connected to Wi-Fi while on a long flight.

INSTALL AN E-READER APP

Surviving a long-haul flight using smartphone is all about preparation; so you need to make sure you are all set in advance.

Bookworms should make use of the many free e-reader apps out there – from Kindle to Kobo – that can give you access to as much literature as you want without the hassle of an extra device (or a suitable full of paperbacks).

These apps of course give you access to e-books you can buy but there are also plenty out-of-copyright classics available to download for your flight: The Great Gatsby, 1984, Les Miserables (watch out, it’s long) and Pride and Prejudice, to name just four. Whether or not you own an actual physical e-reader, you can while away some time reading.

CACHE YOUR MEDIA FOR OFFLINE USE

Your music tracks and movies aren’t much use if they’re stuck up in the virtual cloud while you’re flying through the actual clouds: so make sure you’ve got plenty of playlists and content cached ahead of time. Most of the streaming music apps let you do this, including Spotify and Radio.

Television shows and films are trickier: Netflix has no offline mode but Amazon Video now does. If you’ve bought content from iTunes or from Google Play, then you can have the spare capacity on your handset (in the case of Google, you can choose the download quality).

QUEUE UP YOUR READ-IT-LATER APPS

If you are not tempted by a proper e-book, why not catch up on some of your online reading? Any decent read-it-later app worth its salt (such as Instapaper and Pocket) will let you cache articles for offline reading: so it’s a great opportunity to finally make your way through What is Code?

If you know you’ve got a long flight coming up, then you might want to hunt through your RSS reader or Twitter favorites to find all of these articles you’ve never had chance to get around to reading, or have a scout around for some new long reads that look interesting.

THINK BEYOND YOUR USUAL MUSIC LIBRARY

The best way to speed up time while you’re at 30,000 feet is to forget you’re in an airplane and transport yourself somewhere else using nothing but the power of mind. Rather than listening to music, try drifting away with some ambient sound – Nosili has an offline mode, for example. There are plenty of ambient noise and meditation apps to pick from, though you should check for offline capabilities and invest in a good pair of noise cancelling headphones before you head off for the airport. Alternatively, queue up a few episodes of your favorite podcast, or a few episodes of a new one you want to try.

GET CREATIVE

Maybe being on an airplane isn’t the best way to get the creative juices flowing, but if you are the sort of person who can focus on what’s right in front of you, then working on a project you love can help you speed up the clock a little bit while you’re in the air.

Your options are wide open; install a doodling app, a minimal writing app, or a music composition app. Just make sure there’s something there to help you take your mind off the trip. And if all else fails, you could always fall back on whatever addictive game happens to be storming the app charts at the time of your long-haul flight.

Surfwella to bring free internet access to Nigerian Universities

Internet access in schools is an indispensable tool required for the learning process. This is why most schools provide internet access for their students either for free or through a subscription plan. But the quality of the internet services in these schools is either unstable or too slow for practical use. This is why many other private service providers have tried to improve this; and the latest of this bunch is Surfwella(nice name too tho).

 

  Surfwella comes with a different approach in that their services are supposedly free (i.e no payment, subscription plan etc), but that makes me a little skeptical, I mean c’mon free internet access for Nigerian schools? Surfwella has to be paying for these services somehow. This makes me think there is some kind of catch, ads maybe? But, I may very well be wrong. As Olusola Bankole; Surfwella’s Chief Marketing officer puts it:

It’s our own form of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR). It is all about empowering the students to be globally competitive, and access to free Internet is the best way to empower the budding on-coming Generation-Z.

So, let’s take him at his word and see how this scheme will pan out. Surfwella plans to start out in University of Abuja before moving to Lagos State University (LASU), College of Agric, Lafiaji, and UNILAG.

 

  The awesome thing is that this service isn’t limited to just Nigerian Universities. According to their website, you can browse for free in Lagos if you are a registered user and happen know the location of any of their hotspots(which are not listed BTW). You can sign up for Surfwella here.

What is your take on “free” internet access in Nigerian universities? Let us know in the comments section below.

Uber introduces in-app messaging

While Uber has been around for a while and has made transportation a whole lot easier, you would agree with me that there is still room for improvement; well, it seems Uber also agrees. Have you ever been in a situation where you order an Uber and some strange number calls or texts you asking you for your location? Uber decided to fix this by introducing in-app messaging.

Uber in-app messaging demo
Photo credits:  https://digitaltrends.com

Before then, I believe there is a need for a little back-story. Uber makes use of an anonymizing technology to mask phone numbers when you make calls outside the app. But, unfortunately this isn’t available in emerging markets. Hence, they had to introduce in-app messaging in addition to a few other features which we’ll talk about later on,

Before those, let’s take a look at how this in-app messaging works.

How Uber in-app messaging works

  The driver sends you a message or you send one first; whichever applies, then the driver can reply with a thumbs up emoji just by tapping on the screen(this makes sense because there is a huge chance the Uber driver will be behind the wheels when when the text comes in). In my opinion, this is an awesome feature; why? For a couple of reasons:

• It eliminates the need to exchange numbers
• The Uber driver doesn’t need to park at a location and start honking the horn for several minutes
• They built it with the driver in mind(plus, it’s illegal to text and drive).

As I mentioned earlier, Uber has introduced a few other features in their app like: Snapchat filters, calendar integrations, using friends as destination locations amongst others. I believe Uber has other plans; they want their app to go beyond just a ride-hailing app.

 

  Have you used this in-app messaging feature before? How was it? Let us know in the comments section below. Haven’t heard of or used Uber? Download their app here.

iMessage is a very simple service that is provided by Apple. With the help of this service, you can send texts, documents, group messages, contacts and photos. All these messages can be sent with the help of Wifi. This feature is very easy to use unless you are someone who is using an Android phone. For more information, click here.

All the Android users have been seen complaining that they do not receive iMessages on their phone. Because of this, they receive messages that are segmented and most of the time, miss out on important details. On the other hand, iOS users also keep sending messages to their Android friends and they do not get them.

As of now, there is no official way of getting messages on your phone. But, you can always get iMessage on Android
if you follow these steps.

1. Pie Message is a very special project that can be installed by the users on their device.
2. This project is still in its development stage and you should only install this if you are experienced enough and are also ready to take risk.
3. This is a project that was started by GitHub user Eric Chee. If you want to install it, you will need a Mac and an Android phone. 
4. This means that Pie Message needs an OS X client that can help in transferring messages to an Android device. Mac plays a very important role here as it is the one that helps in the transferring of the messages. 
5. The message is sent by the Android to Mac and then Mac sends the message in the form of a notification.
6. If Mac also detects an incoming message, that is also transferred to the Android.

HOW DOES IT WORK?

1. After you have installed Pie Message, it works as follows.
2. It will use an Apple script and will capture iMessages as soon as they arrive on your Mac system.
3. After this, the Java app takes all those messages from Apple script.
4. And then, that message is forwarded by Java app to a custom messaging application on the Android phone.
5. The message will be displayed on the Android phone and then it will respond to those iMessages.

LIMITATIONS OF THE APPLICATION:

1. The Mac has to stay awake always in case it wants to send the message on time.
2. If Mac is turned off, the messages will not be received anymore.
3. As explained above, it works by routing iMessages from Mac to Android phone.
4. As of now, the application does not work with photos, or group messages

How to Solve The Issue Of Phone Not Charging Fast

I could remember when I got my phone newly it takes less than an hour for the battery to show green(full), but as time goes by the duration for full charging kept on increasing, as a tech savvy I decided to find solution to this problem of my phone not charging fast again, which I will share with you today.

As the saying goes nothing last forever, this is also applicable to our desirable gadgets. One thing clear is that usage causes wear and tear of device and cells that stores energy(battery) also experience this far more than any other parts of the mobile phone. 

So, today what are the possible ways we can enjoy the days of fast charging again on our smartphones.

Here I will share 5 different ways you can effectively make your smartphone charge faster.

1. Replace Charging Cable: Do you know your charging cable also wear and tear? Also do you know the shorter the cable length the faster it powers your smartphone? I guess you said yes, OK. The default charger after sometime will reduce power transmission rate and this leads to slower boosting rate for smartphones.

Consider changing your charging cable and enjoy a little faster charging rate. 

2. Stop to Use Your Phone While Charging: I know most of us would have experience phone being hot while charging at the same time browsing, when browsing a lot of applications are turned on which later demand higher energy far more than the input, which tends to make the phone become hot and phone hotness has a negative impact on phone batteries because it weaken the battery cells.

Do this;

• Close/End all the applications that are running
• Turn off WiFi, Bluetooth and GPS

3. Use Airplane Mode: this is also an effective way to charge your phone faster because 3G roaming service itself consume more energy also in airplane mode most applications demanding energy are reduced drastically, the only demerit is that you won’t have access to internet.

4. Avoid Charging From Power bank, Laptop and other devices that allows USB channel– I guess you  that’s weird right? That’s not the right thing to do, there is an expected input rate for smartphone which these USB ports cannot release they’re basically meant for transmitting data not charging, they do not enough current for a device to charge. Hence, slow charging. E.g Output Current of USB

• USB 2.0 can provide up to 500mAH
• USB 3.0 can provide up to 900mAH

If you don’t have a charger nearby and using PC USB port as a last resort. It would be great if you connect your device to a USB 3.0 (blue) port.

5. Finally, Replace Your Battery: If you’ve been using your device for more than 1 year, and it takes more than 3hours to charge and less than 5hours to discharge, then it’s time to look for a replacement.

Note: it’s abnormal for a phone battery to charge for 4hours even though it’s 5000MAH, that shows the battery as already diminished in power in take.
