The Top 5 Mobile Applications recommend for you


Mobile apps were originally intended for productivity: email, calendar and contact databases, but public demand caused rapid expansion into other areas, such as mobile games, factory automation, GPS and location-based services, banking, order-tracking, and ticket purchases. There are huge amount of apps on the internet, what apps will you install? Here are 5 apps I think everyone should have.

1. Money Transfer: This refers to people sending money via SMS messages. Like mobile payments, this service has more appeal in developing markets for now.

2. Location-Based Services: There are still far too many services to choose from when it comes to location-based social networking, fragmenting the market. Your friends on Loopt are often different than those on Brightkite and that list is different than those on Foursquare. But LBS extends to more than social networks - it includes any application that taps into your phone's GPS capabilities to offer up location-based services of any kind, whether that's local business reviews or directions to the nearest Starbucks. Gartner says this will be one of the most disruptive technologies in the future, with a user base growing from 96 million in 2009 to 526 million in 2012.

3. Mobile Health Monitoring: Another technology whose impact will be felt more heavily in developing markets, mobile health monitoring is still at an early stage of maturity and implementation says Gartner. Project rollouts have been limited to pilot projects for now, but in the coming years the industry will begin to monetize these efforts by offering mobile healthcare monitoring products, services, and solutions to various care delivery organizations.

4.Mobile Browsing: Saying that mobile browsing technologies will be heavily used in the future sounds a little bit like stating the obvious. That's also good news for web developers who can build mobile web applications to cater to this bunch as opposed to focusing all their efforts into building apps for the numerous mobile platforms like the iPhone, Android, RIM, and others.

5.Mobile Music: Sure, you have the iPhone, but what about your other options? What about mobile music services - especially those for non-iPhone devices? We're still waiting on Spotify in the U.S., for example, and their competition too. Gartner says that we're beginning to see new innovative models in this area that will include both device (think "Comes with Music") and service bundles.

HTC One S Android 4.0 smartphone review


The HTC One S is the second in command in HTC's new One series rankings, one rung down on the size and power ladder from the HTC One X. That's no bad thing because the giant scale and quad-core power of the One X won't be for everyone.

This smartphone's 4.3-inch Super AMOLED screen from Samsung is above average when it comes to imaging quality. The One S has a 540 x 960 pixel resolution, which offers a 256-ppi pixel density on this display size.

Features
The One S runs on Android 4.0 (Ice Cream Sandwich) and the latest version of its Sense UI.

You'll get the same 8-megapixel BSI camera with ImageSense technology on the One S that my colleague Aloysius Low raved about in his review of the One X. The One S also has a dedicated imaging chip, and overall camera performance was brisk. The camera was able to focus in less than a second, capture continuous shots in machine gun succession and snap crisp photos while recording video. It may not have a 41-megapixel sensor like the Nokia 808 PureView, but the BSI sensor captured clear photos in low lighting, and the smart LED flash could fill a scene with enough light.

As with all smartphones in its One series, HTC has integrated Beats Audio sound enhancing software in its music player app.

The difference between using the bundled Beats Solo headset and non-Beats branded headphones is audible. With the Beats Solo headset, music seems to have more presence, punchier bass and clearer vocals. Other headsets we tried also showed some improvement with the sound enhancer turned on. Do note that the sound enhancer only works with headphones or external speakers that are plugged in to the phone and you can't tweak the settings--only turn it on or off.

The HTC One S is not the fastest smartphone on the market, but it is one of the fastest. It does not offer the best screen, but its display is one of the best. Finally, it is definitely not the best smartphone at the moment, but it is one of the best available.

Take a review of Nokia Lumia 900


Nokia is gradually making something of a comeback with its most recent phones, such as the Nokia Lumia 710 and the newer Nokia Lumia 610. The 900 is the latest in an increasingly strong lineup of Windows Phone 7 phones that includes the HTC Titan.

Nokia Lumia 900: Features
Nokia has a long history of cameraphones and this 8-megapixel snapper is quick and efficient. Like most phones, it can struggle in low light, though at least there’s a dual-LED flash. Unlike the Nokia Lumia 800, this one has a front-facing camera, too, so you can make video calls.
Nokia’s extras include handy apps like Nokia Drive, with free downloadable maps and no need to connect to data in order to use it as a satnav. Nokia Music is a series of tracks you can stream for free. Of course, there’s the thousands of other Windows Phone apps but there’s still a dearth compared to Android or iOS. Mind you, the ones it does have look spectacular.

Main disadvantages
Won't get WP 8
No USB mass storage (Zune only file management and sync)
No native video calls
Non-user-replaceable battery
No memory card slot (and no 64GB version like the N9)
microSIM card slot
No native DivX/XviD support, videos have to be transcoded by Zune

Pros
AMOLED display one of the best ever
LTE speeds - 20Mbps down 7Mbps up
Distinct premium design
25GB cloud storage
Elegant & speedy OS
Nokia Drive offline/online GPS nav
Voice search & voice launch apps
Zune Pass/Xbox/MS Office
2-day battery life
Cons
Power button placement
Can't change volume when screen is off
Only 85,000-100,000 apps at launch
Needs a notifications section
No expandable memory
Some older games lack fast resume
Summary
You cannot find a better deal than the Nokia Lumia 900. I've never owned a Nokia before but after getting my Lumia 900 I might be a customer for life. This phone is made of a material I have never seen or felt before. It feels very solid, smooth and high quality. The cyan color is absolutely beautiful and is definitely the color to get as it really stands out as a special phone. Everything else just looks plain and boring next to this phone.

Which will be your choice iPhone 4 vs Samsung Galaxy s2


The S3 has gone huge on innovation, with a lot of new attributes the speculation hadn't dreamed of. But the 1st issue you notice may be the size. Samsung has shown it may make a good results of huge screens with all the 5.3in display on the Samsung Galaxy Note.

The Samsung Galaxy s2 as well as the iPhone 4 are two mobile phones which have generated plenty of discussion, and lots of people are comparing the two mobiles with a single yet another. Each the iPhone 4 as well as the Samsung Galaxy s2 are actually well-known, and also even though the Samsung Galaxy s2 is newer, the iPhone 4 and its successor the iPhone 4s are nevertheless flourishing inside the industry - so which mobile phone is far better?

Construct & Design
When it comes to design, I say the iPhone 4S takes the prize. It's small, it's sexy, and everyone knows exactly what kind of telephone you have when you pull it out. The Galaxy S II devices aren't exactly ugly, but they aren't exactly head-turners either, suffering from a "me too" design sensibility of all-black devices without any real flair.
Each the Apple as well as the Samsung handsets are dominated by large displays that cover the front of the device. They also have the same basic button and port layout, even though the buttons on the iPhone 4S are slightly larger and easier to operate.

Screen and Display
iPhone 4S
Screen size: 3.5 inches
Screen techonology: IPS LCD
Screen resolution: 960x640
Samsung Galaxy S2
Screen size: 4.3 inches
Screen technology: Super AMOLED Plus
Screen resolution: 800x480

camera
The Samsung Galaxy S2 has a cool 8MP camera with auto-focus and LED flash that takes 3264 x 2448 photos and 1080p videos at 30fps. If you remember, the original iPhone 4S had a 5MP sensor, and several geeks thought it was a huge shortcoming, despite the fact that the number of megapixels doesn't actually matter. Anyway, now those geeks have received what they wanted-the new iPhone 4S has an 8MP camera able to take 3264 x 2448 pictures just like the Galaxy S2 and several other modern smartphones. Plus it has a CMOS illuminated sensor, which is 73 percent more effective and about 30 percent faster than before. And of course, it shoots 1080p HD videos, too.

What should you do if the phone drop into water


Have you ever dropped your cell phone in the sink, or even worse... the toilet? Did you ever leave it in your pocket and run it through the washer? Did you ever swim with your cell phone in your pocket? Ever have it fall into the pet's water bowl? Getting your cell phone wet usually means you have to replace it, but sometimes if you're fast enough, you might be able to save the phone!

So what should you do if your expensive mobile phone gets wet in the rain or your drop it in a wash basin?
The first step you need to take is the immediate shutting off your mobile once it is recovered, although in most cases you will not have to do that as they itself get off automatically. Patience pays off - do not dare to experiment anything new and test the phone whether it is working or not until the phone is absolutely dry which takes around 2-4 days generally.

Then you need to remove all its vital parts that include a battery, phone covers, faceplates, SIM card and others. Remove all other peripherals and covers that can be removed. Remove any covers and external connectors to open up as many gaps, slots, and crevices in the phone as possible.

Dry your phone. If there is even one drop of water left inside, it can ruin your phone by corroding it and making the wrong contact. Obviously you need to remove as much of the water as soon as possible, to prevent it from easing its way into the phone. Use a vacuum cleaner if possible. If you want to try and suck the liquid out of the inner parts of the phone, try using a vacuum cleaner. Remove all residual moisture by drawing it away with a vacuum cleaner held over the affected areas for up to 20 minutes, in each accessible area (take it in turns with a friend). This is the fastest method and can completely dry out your phone and get it working in thirty minutes. However, unless the exposure to water was extremely short, it's not recommended to attempt to turn your phone on this soon. Be careful not to hold the vacuum too close to the phone, as a vacuum can create static electricity, which is even worse for the phone.

Try to completely cover the iPhone in a bowl of rice. Rice being a natural desiccant will help absorb the excess moisture. Let it dry for at least 24 hours and Do not try to charge the device.

The three things for why I love the iphone 4S


The iPhone 4S is the fifth generation of the iPhone and retains the exterior design of its predecessor, the iPhone 4, but is host to a range of improved hardware specifications and software updates. The phone added a voice recognition system known as Siri, for which the S in the products name stands, and a cloud storage service named iCloud. Some of the device's functions may be voice-controlled through Siri.

Siri is Apple's new intelligent software voice-recognition assistant and exclusive to the iPhone 4S. While some users have shown that Siri runs just fine on an iPhone 4, connecting to Apple's servers have proven to be a futile attempt as it only accepts commands from the UID of an iPhone 4S handset.

Some of the cool things Siri can do is type messages as the user dictates it then send it to the recipient, set an alarm, place a reminder, and even do some light researching for you. One user even managed to let Siri start a car, although the setup was pretty complicated.

With iPhone 4S you can capture spectacular 1080p HD video given that with the most recent optics, there is vivid color all the time. Additionally, it is simple to directly edit video and share it on any social media platform with not having to wait to go onto the internet by the use of your computer.

iCloud is ideal for the management of your contacts, photos, mail messages and apps, among other things. iCloud automatically stores all of your content, from music and photos to apps and e-mails, so that it's easily accessible from whichever device you happen to be using. Best of all, it's completely free to get 5GB of effortless storage. And since iCloud doesn't need to be manually synced with your devices, your content is always available, no matter where you are.

Upload video from your mobile phone to YouTube


Posting and sharing video clips online just got a lot more simpler. YouTube, the popular Video sharing site, now lets you upload videos to Youtube servers using email without the web browser based Youtube video uploader.
YouTube has added a new feature to upload video using cell phones, all you need to do is a GPRS or Wi-fi connected mobile phone, a video on your mobile and few settings on YouTube from your computer. If your mobile don't have GPRS or Wi-fi facility then also you can send video via MMS. Standard operator rates are applied. We will use this to upload videos to YouTube by email. The trick is to create a Mobile profile on Youtube and you receive the email address to which you can send the videos. Here's a process to upload video from YouTube.

Step 1. If you don't already have a YouTube account, you need to create one. It's quick and easy to create one. Point your browser to: http://www.youtube.com/ In the upper right hand corner, click "Create an Account."

Step 2. Fill in the necessary information to create an account. Create a username, select your location, provide additional personal information, read the terms of agreement, and then click "I Accept."
TIP! Your username will become your YouTube URL. For example, AYM's username is "youthmovements," so our URL is http://www.youtube.com/youthmovements

Step 3. You will be directed to a new page asking if you already have a Google account. If you do have one, enter you account email and password to add YouTube to your Google account. Don't have a Google account? No worries. Just add a personal email address, create a password, and click "Create New Account and Finish."

Step 4. You will need to check your email and open a confirmation email from YouTube. Click on the link in the email to confirm your YouTube account. You will be re-directed to the YouTube homepage. You are ready to go!

Step 5. Before you can upload videos from your mobile phone, you need to configure your account. Click on your username in the top right-hand corner of any YouTube page. In the drop-down menu, select "Account." You will be directed to the Account Settings page.

Step 6. On the left-hand side, select "Mobile Setup." You will see a blue box that says: "Upload videos from your phone by sending them to:" followed by an email address. This email address is unique to you. Write it down, and add it to your contacts in your mobile phone.

Step 7. Select a video file on your mobile phone, and email it to the email address you were given by YouTube. Videos sent to this address will be added to your YouTube channel!

Step 8. Log into your YouTube account on your computer later to update information about the mobile video you uploaded - add a title, description, and tags, and set your privacy settings.
