Transfer files from Iphone to Android

To answer the million dollar question. Yes you can transfer your pics from the friend who have an iPhone with him.
I used to make fun of my friend about how he can not share his photos with his friends. But now the app instashare has taken away that from me. Thanks but no thanks.
For the Apple guys here is the app instashare to show off your pic transferring capabilities. But sadly for you Apple boys n girls we Android users also need to install it so that we may receive it.
The software is pretty simple download it on both the devices and open it. Then select the pics and drag and drop it. After that accept the file from the other device. Pretty clean and simple.
So for android guys who has iPhone friends this link is for helping them so that they won't feel left out when you are sharing your awesome pics.

Watching Series On Android for Free

Recently I came across an awesome app  seriesdrioid. After searching for almost  a decade.... Kidding you... almost a year, which felt like decades. I came across an awesome app to watch series online on your Android device.
Requirements:
Android mobile or tab
Some nice high speed connection
Download the app from the link on aptoide.
Note: You may require to download the aptoide app first. Then you can install the SeriesDroid app from the aptoide market.
With Adm Downloader or by app built in Downloader you can download the videos. But Adm is faster. And with MX Player you can stream videos online.
You might be wondering why not download from a torrent. Reason torrent are about almost around 400MB per episode. This one is around 200MB per episode. So saves some data. And pretty clear on you 7inch tab.
Or if you want 60MB versions check this out.

Watching Series On Mobile

Best site to download mobile series is fztvseries.  You can download almost all the series on the site. And if you are using Uc Mini browser from Android you can even stream it.

Another option is a site called o2tvseries which has a limited collection but better downloading speeds and faster updates.

All episodes are around 60MB files and have an almost good video and audio clarity for viewing on a mobile.

For another option of 200MB episodes check this out.

Samsung Tab Sound Fix

The Problem...
Recently I bought a brand new galaxy tab 4. Yeah, Yeah you heard it right Samsung Galaxy. "Why not Nexus?" you may ask.Reason...this one had a better battery life which counts when you are using a tab for reading ebooks.
So back to the problem...
When I was watching a Movie suddenly, the volume on my headset went way low. Only on the headset. It worked fine on the speakers. I tried restarting, cleaning the buds and even blowing into the audio jack (praying I won't destroy the jack with my spittle).
At last, I took it to the service centre. The guy said it was a software problem and formatted the whole thing. I became happy. And I lived ever after.
Or I thought so.....but.....
Again after a few days...the same thing happened...I was like what the hell...with the stupid 2G connection in my country downloading apps and updating my mobile again is a sh***y option. So I tried a new solution...pretty simple one...
(sorry for making you all read my rant...)
The Solution...
I went into recovery mode and wiped my cache. That's it. Just wipe the cache, and you are ready to go. All sound is recovered and you don't loose any of your data.
To go to recovery switch off your tab. Switch it on by pressing the power button+volume up+home key together. Until the recovery mode is shown.
In recovery mode use volume buttons to navigate and power button to confirm the action.
WARNING: DONT DO A COMPLETE WIPE OF DATA. ONLY WIPE CACHE.

Dead Internal SD / Boot Loop "FIX" on GalaxyS I9000

Samsung GalaxyS, one of the best devices from Samsung and its flagship device, it is nothing when compared to the new devices on the market, but it still has the quality which won't let you leave the phone yet. However, unfortunately, many of the GalaxyS devices internal SD gets damaged/dead after some time. Most of you might have already given up searching for a fix Online for this problem.

DON'T GIVE UP. You have finally reached the right blog.



Issues I had:

1. 1 day the phone was working perfect..the next day it won't.
2. It would only boot into the boot menu and then keeps on restarting (Boot Loop)
3. Tried flashing different Samsung firmware but no fix.

Before beginning, I cannot promise you this method will work for you, but it is worth a shot is it not?

The only way to fix this is installing the whole OS in you External SD card.

Disclaimer: We are not responsible if anything happens to your phone.Don’t miss any of the steps, firstly read and understand the whole tutorial then go for the actual process.



Prerequisite:

1. External SD - Minimum 8GB (I suggest using class 10 memory card)
2. MiniTool Partition Wizard (just google it)
3. Memory Card Reader
4. Odin. (google it)
5. For drivers ( Download USB drivers or download Samsung Kies (drivers included))
6. XXJ4 Firmware (Link: Download from samsung-updates.com)
7. Root file for XXJW4 (Link: download the root file )




Step by Step Guide:


1. Use MiniTool ( MiniTool did not work if the micro-sd was inserted before it was started. Don't ask me, I do not know!) (AND, MiniTool did not work all the time. It worked like, 2/10 times that I tried it?)

2. Delete/Clear all data in your partitions, wipe partitions (with 0s or 1s)
3. Partition your SD card: it is best to do the FAT32 partition first, make sure that you leave at least 2 GB for the next Ext4 partition and create an Ext4 Partition. (both Primary)
4. After step 4, Insert SD Card into phone and go to Download mode (vol down + home + power)


5. Here, Use JW4 (haven't tried with JW5/JW6 yet) and flash via Odin in PDA (Touch nothing else in Odin)
Link: http://samsung-updates.com/details/17571/Galaxy_S/GT-I9000/XEU/I9000XXJW4.html

Details: http://samsung-updates.com/device/?id=GT-I9000

6. Your phone still may not work (bootloop), If so take out the SD Card, run it through PC again for partition, and re-inserted in your phone.

7. Flashed via Odin (JW4), AGAIN. And now, it booted, successfully!

8. Root using Odin and appropriate cf-root kernel (JW4)

9. Reboot, and voila, your phone should work as advertised.!



Next Step:

1. Install script manager app and mount r/w app from Google Play (market)
2. Use mount r/w to Mount the system partition in r/w mode.
3. Browse using script manager app as root (change setting in config).
4. Go to /system/etc folder and change file permission for vold.fstab to rwxrwxrwx (This means tick all the 9 boxes on the left not the 3 on the right.....such a technical explanation)
5. Then edit the vold.fstab file as text and change the following

Change:

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.0/mmc_host/mmc0

to

dev_mount sdcard /mnt/sdcard auto /devices/platform/s3c-sdhci.2/mmc_host/mmc2

Change:

s3c-sdhci.0

to

s3c-sdhci.2

Change:

mmc0

to

mmc2

Save the file and reboot the phone!
