Updated Settings for MTN Musicplus + SimpleServer (If your BIS Refuses to Work On your PC, Android or iPhones)

We don't see any of these Telecoms doing their subscribers any good by blocking out the Simple server with BBLite tweaks people had been using... or managing rather, for a long while.

Truth remains that Data bundles in NG are still not as cheap as it's meant to be, instead of 1MB for less than 1 Naira, they prefer to reap people off which not everyone can afford or won't happily keep paying for, any ways, I didn't come here to vent.
If your Simple server had stopped working with your BBLited or BIS subscriptions which we shared in latest browsing tweaks 2016 sometime time ago, then we have an update that you can use to keep moving on, the updated Settings for MTN Musicplus with SimpleServer for both PC and Android.


TO ACTIVATE THE LATEST METHOD FOR YOUR SIMPLE SERVER + MTN MUSICPLUS FOR PC and ANDROID

With this, you'll get 150mb for 15Naira, and you can always do it as many times as you want.

Use the set up below:
1. Text C to 5900
2. Reply YES when you see a msg

3. Open your Simpleserver config file replace this "web.blackberry.com"
Replace that with >>>  musicplus. mtnonline.com /touch/index. html#index-page (WITHOUT SPACE)

Now save it and launch the simple server program, connect to internet and browse with your Mozilla or Chrome using Local Host (127.0.0.1) Port :8080 As usual.

If you exhaust it, text  CANCEL7C TO 5900 And reactivate using Step 1.

 

How to Use the MTN Musicplus tweak on iPhone/iPad


How to Use the MTN Musicplus tweak on your Android

You can simply Install and Use this With Simple Android Server Or Psiphon you can get here
Use your normal music plus settings on Netify or ProNet, Sypon Shield, OR follow the below settings -
  • Tick Remove Port
  • Proxy type: Real Host
  • Proxy Server: musicplus.mtnonline.com/touch/index.html#index-page
  • Real Proxy Type: Inject
> Select save and click on “tunnel whole device”.
> Click on the options tab

Region: All servers are working with it, but we advice you pick United states to avoid strange languages when browsing.

Select more option, And check “Connect through an HTTP” then select “Use the following settings:” then configure as.
Host address: 10.199.212.2
Port: 8080
Hit Back and hit Connect. (Thumbs up to Shelaf for sharing this)

As we earlier said, If you exhaust the allocated data, just text  CANCEL7C TO 5900 And reactivate using Step 1.

We understand that the process is a bit of stress but we have to keep it going till we find a stable tweak or till the former BBlited plans start working again.

GateKeeper Reviews and Handson - Automatically Lock & Unlock Your PC and Track Your Valuables

Hi everyone! The great guys at Untethered Labs LLC (GKchain), a startup based in the US and UK sent me a cute gadget which I'll be unboxing and giving you a hands-on review of the pretty small, yet powerful device known as GateKeeper.

So, What is GateKeeper?

Gatekeeper is portable smart electronic device used for locking and unlocking your PC (Windows and Mac) and tracking our valuables, I'll explain everything.



Initially, the usual way we lock and unlock our PC is done by typing in the passwords right? GateKeeper does way better and faster than that, once activated you don't have to press anything. It notices your Presence and automatically unlocks your PC. Wanna see how it looks? Let's quickly unbox the Gatekeeper pack.



Unboxing Gatekeeper contents:

- The Gatekeeper Remote
- a USB dongle (a wireless connector for the remote)
- Button Lithium Battery (for the remote)
- User Manual
- Holder's Strap



Getting Started - Setting up Gatekeeper for your PC (Windows/Mac)

Setting up Gatekeeper for your PC is done with only 8 SIMPLE STEPS, for Mac, Windows 7, 8 or 10.

1. Insert the Battery in the Gatekeeper key




2. Go to GateKeeper.com and Click "Download" from the Site Menu
3. Install GateKeeper Retail for your PC (Mac, Windows 7 and up)
4. Plug the connector (USB dongle)

5. Register Your GateKeeper Key
Registering your Key will give you access to all locking modes on GateKeeper.

After installing the program, it will prompt you to register, to do, place the Gatekeeper key close to the USB dongle as seen in our photo shot below:



It should tell you "GateKeeper is now connected"

6. Enter your PC credentials: Note that When choosing a password, I used same Password on Gatekeeper as the password on my PC to avoid any mix up.
Enter your PIN incase you forget your unlock password, then click OK.

8. The last stage of the set up is setting up the Distance Range you would like your GateKeeper to Work with.
Gatekeeper - Automatically Lock & Unlock Your PC

When you switch it to "Near" Gatekeeper will lock your PC when you walk few inches away with the key
"Far" Gatekeeper will lock your PC when you walk far away with the key.
If you would like to lock and unlock your PC automatically, Tick - Login automatically using GateKeeper.
Gatekeeper should come in very handy for those of us who work in an open office where you share table with colleagues.

FAQs

What happens when you walk away with your Gatekeeper Key then somebody unplugs the Bluetooth dongle from your Laptop?
Nope. GateKeeper is smart, it will Automatically Lock your PC and It will remain locked till you are there to open it with the key or your password.


Tracking Your Valuables & Items with GateKeeper:

As said earlier, GateKeeper does beyond Securing your PC from intruders, you can also use your GateKeeper to track your items and valuables.



Use the setup below:
Before doing this, disconnect the USB dongle from your PC.

  • Install the GateKeeper Tracking app from PlayStore
  • Launch the App, Click on ADD Key. Press and Hold the Button at the side of your Gatekeeper Key, it will connect with Alarm sound.

  • You can also set the App to alert you when your Key is out of range from your phone, incase they steal and want to get away with it, your gatekeeper will raise alarm.




GateKeeper sells for around $49 to $50 (₦10,000) and you can BUY IT DIRECTLY FROM THE WEBSITE.

This should be useful especially for important things we carry about, like our bags and Keys or another phone. All you have to do is clip your Gatekeeper key to that valuable.
Hope you like it.

MediaTek COO Just Unleashed Specs Of Upcoming Helio X30 Processor

In as much as the Apple iPhone, BlackBerry and Samsung released incredible processors for their latest flagships, Chinese OEM smartphone processor manufacturer MediaTek’s COO is not backing down.


MediaTek has come out and said the upcoming Helio X30 SoC could stand and even beat off the top chips from its rivals, Qualcomm and Samsung. According to them, the specification of the The Helio X30 will be another 10-core SoC, with two 1.0Ghz Cortex A53 cores,
two 1.5Ghz A53 cores,
two 2Ghz A72 cores
and four 2.5Ghz A72 cores.

Although we are not yet clear if it will be on a 20nm chip or 16nm.

This should be a thing of joy for Infinix, Tecno, Innjoo and other Users of MTK phones.
We had last year; seen the latest Helio X10 appear in the Infinix Zero 3 which indeed made the smartphone outstanding and smooth in terms of speed and multi-tasking. And we know Other smarptohnes, including Tecno, Innjoo, Xiaomi and many other popular devices use MediaTek (MTK)
Looking at the what they are about to release in the X30 processor, it's definite the chipset company is carrying all its chinese OEM devices along.

Android N: Newly Added Feature Will Make Sharing Easier & Faster

It's really nice how Android made sharing seamless across its operating system over the years. We know on previous Android OS versions, (around 4.2 Jellybean to the recent Marshmallow 6.0), we always had been seeing the same ways of sharing Files or data, the standard "share" command and its collection of APIs allows for easily getting content sent from one app to another.

A practical example is using my Android Kitkat device when I want to Share a file, you Tap the "Share" icon and see a list of Apps you can use to share it.

Looking at my screenshot below, my device (running Android Kitkat), there are quite too many Apps on the list using that Share function, I am sure only few are relevant to me when sharing stuff.


Android N has a little feature that makes that interaction much more user-friendly now: Share apps can now be pinned to the top of the cross-app menu.
With this, even if you have installed plenty apps that have Share function, you don't have to scroll too much to find the App you want to Share to.





Pinning Share Apps: To pin share apps is also easy, simply open the Share Menu from any App (like when you're sending a file), the list of apps will come up, just press and Hold any of the apps and select "Pin".
After you Pick and Pin any app, it will stick at the Top for you to quickly use it when sharing content. To Unpin any app, long-press the app to have it removed.

The Easy Guide to Unlock Bootloader and Root HTC (One) E8

Unlocking bootloader and rooting HTC One E8 is really simple after following the steps we personally used and will show you below. Before we proceed; let's quickly introduce us to HTC One E8.

HTC E8 is a plastic chassis version of the HTC One M8, we all know M8 is a popular flagship made of metal but E8's body-make is the only obvious difference, a plastic chassis, so apart from body-build, HTC One E8 and M8 sports almost the same specs hence HTC One E8 also runs Android Kitkat 4.4.2 out of the box that we'll be rooting.



To Unlock the bootloader and root the device, Here're Requirements

1. Your HTC One E8 device running Android 4.4.2 Kitkat
2. Download and install HTC Sync Manager - It will Back up your Contacts, Gallery and Messages
3. Working USB Cable - For data transfer

4. Download SuperSU Root (UPDATE-SuperSU-v2.02.zip) for the HTC One (E8) to your computer. Connect your smartphone to your computer via USB cable.
Copy and paste the UPDATE-SuperSU-v.02.zip file to your SD card, making sure the file goes to the root folder of your SD card and not to another folder.

  • Ensure to Enable USB Debugging, To do this, go to Settings >> Developer options, scroll down till you see USB debugging.
  • Also make sure you activate developer mode on the phone. Go to About Phone, scroll down to Build Number and tap it 7 times.

 

How To Unlock the Bootloader and Root HTC E8

Unlocking Bootloaders on any HTC device is the first step to take before eventually rooting or installing TWRP or any recovery into it.

To Unlock bootloader on HTC E8, You have two options:
i. Use the HTC Dev website, Login, pick your device and use their steps to unlock the boot loader
or
ii. Use Adb Command prompts.
To do this, Download this file. Unzip it and choose your C:\ drive when installing.

1. Now plug your HTC, it should Sync with the HTC Sync manager we downloaded Earlier. Once it says connected, minimise the software from your PC.

2. On your Windows start menu search command prompt, Or use Shortcut > Press "Windows Menu key + R." then inside it type CMD and hit enter.

3. Your device should still be connected at this point.
Now this is where the full action (with root) takes place, type the following command prompts, hit enter on each prompt:

adb devices
 
adb shell

su (if needed to get a # prompt)

echo -ne "HTCU" | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p2 bs=1 seek=33796
(I strongly advice you to be careful here, type exactly as I've written, no mistakes in spaces or letters)

exit
(exit a second time if you need to get back to a normal > prompt)

adb reboot bootloader

If done correctly your prompt results should like mine below which starts from C:\Users\EDI>adb devices



4. The last prompt will switch your device off and go to the Boot Menu, (if this doesn't happen, switch of the HTC then Press and Hold Power button + Volume Down)
you'll see the Bootloader mode displaying "UNLOCKED"
Use volume down button to scroll down, use Power button to choose - FASTBOOT.


Your device will switch On. Install Root Checker and Confirm by granting Access to Super SU.
Congrats you successfully Rooted your HTC One (E8).
Let us know if you face any issues.

6+1 Best Productivity Android Apps in 2020 You Really Need To Try Out

When you launch the Google PlayStore and check for "the best Productivity Apps" you will find a wide selection, in fact hundreds of them this 2020: Adobe, Google Drive, Dropbox, PDF viewers, etc, these apps are everywhere but there are still some unique ones you'll see and feel "If only I knew this app a long time before now".

We'll recommend such Apps for you today, the aim of the Apps remain to help everyone increase their productivity or carry out daily tasks in very easy unique ways.
I have personally tried most of them, they work great.
In descending order, here are 6 +1 Productivity Apps You may Not know but You Really Need To Try Out.

6. ColorNote




This app's layout should remind you of StickyNote or NotePad on your PC. ColorNote is a simple yet powerful app for drafting your daily write-ups and texts instantly.
Unlike Google Keep (which uses internet/cloud backup to Sync Notes), ColorNote is straight to the point.
With it, I quickly write random stuffs that pops out of my head so I don't forget later. You even can create a Checklist or Texts of unlimited words any time.

5. Sunrise Calendar

Honestly, I find most Pre-installed Calendar Apps boring, it takes me so much time to understand and figure out how to arrange my activities with them, till I found Sunrise calendar, see, I like things "simple" even if they can be sophisticated, and I bet you should too.
MicroSoft innovated the App, it's one of their most useful mobile Apps after Outlook. Sunrise calendar is far easiest and help you Schedule your activities and reminders in one place without tapping your phone's screen too much.

P.S: Microsoft might be killing this app soon. They're integrating it all into Outlook, so if you have the APK (current version) which is better, keep it.




4. Snowball - Smart Notifications

As long as Android is concerned, notifications are always hanging around, Snowball turns your notifications into much more than just an alert. With this app you'll be able to respond to many different types of notifications without having to launch the actual app they're coming from.  It's configured according to your own priorities with the most important notifications at the top. You should get this one if you receive too many notifications.

3. Chromer

Most popular Apps such as that of Facebook, Twitter amongst others usually come with in-built browsers also known as System Webview. Take for example when you click a link from Facebook app, it opens the link and views the page using the Facebook app's system webview right? Many other apps also do this, the big problem with system webviews is that they don't keep any records of your Logins or anything, this means frustration when you have to Log in to such websites over and over again, Chromer has come to change that. I use it to force open external links on Google Chrome from any App, at least I am sure viewing external links with Chrome Browser is way better, instead of System Webview.

2. Milanote

This Milanote review is definitely a needed one, I was impressed with the product and how it improved my work. Initially, for my note taking on PC, I had been using EverNote all these years until I recently discovered Milanote.

Milanote is an advanced coolest version of Notes App, it's a whiteboard app that helps me to gather notes and organise my work better, you can even invite and collaborate with other people or your team to work on a project remotely.
The User experience is so simple yet very useful and has lots of rich tools.

Milanote's easy-to-use drag-and-drop interface lets you collect and organize every part of your creative project in one place—images, notes, links, files, videos and tasks, side-by-side on an infinite virtual canvas.

It's just like working on a wall in a creative studio. You can arrange your inspiration into a beautiful moodboard, add notes explaining your ideas, get feedback from a client or map out tasks on a project—all in one place.
The app is available for use on Mobile and Web or PC

1. Tiny Windows (MultiWindows)

Another simpler way to handle multi-tasking had been provided by this App, this app tiles your running apps in a way stickyNotes do on your Windows PC, with Tiny Windows you can resize, move your small apps, to use and work on them at the same time. It's most effective on devices that have large resolution screens.

Exclusive Photos of the Infinix #PlayHOT launching This March 2016

Although we are yet to confirm the Specs and Price of the Infinix Hot 3 which is launching this month of March 2016. The new smartphone from the Infinix Mobility will use the hash tag #PlayHOT and be a major upgrade for the HOT series.

Now, for the curious ones, we have some really nice Exclusive Photos of the Infinix Hot 3 here for you as seen below, the photos are few of the first pictures of the smartphone 'Not yet released'.
Like we used to do, this is only a sneak peak.
infinix hot 3



The previous HOT series (Infinix Hot X507 and Hot 2 X510) sported a 5 inches display, this might be different, maybe a 5.5 inches display, who knows?.

The photo also depicts that the upper left and right edges of the Hot 3 are very nicely curved and smooth, very catchy look there. Also, from what we had been hearing, the front camera of the Infinix Hot 3 is going to be tremendous, unique and away from its predecessors that sported the little 2MP front cam.
We are having increased number of people taking selfies daily, Hot 3 might be the perfect device for them.

In a week or two, we will share with us more information about the smartphone, including the specifications and precisely the Price too. Till then :)
