Samsung Galaxy Tab 3 10.1

Posted: 30 Jul 2013 01:19 PM PDT

 

 

Samsung confounded us last year when it released the Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 as a virtual reissue of the original, bumping up the Android version, removing the LED rear camera flash and rearranging the dual speaker placement. So what's new in the Galaxy Tab 3? Nothing much, it turns out. You've got the same 1,280 x 800 display, 1GB of RAM, 16GB of internal storage and IR blaster as on the last-gen model, although the processor has been swapped for a dual-core 1.6GHz Intel Z2560 running Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean.

Who is the best Batman yet?

Posted: 30 Jul 2013 01:16 PM PDT

The recent movies have almost been degrading to the great comic character Batman is. The best one I can remember was the one which had Michael Keaton as Batman in the year 1989. Then we had everyone from George Clooney (Batman & Robin 1997) to Val Kilmer (Batman Forever 1995). The latest movie is to release in the summer of 2005 and stars Christian Bale as Bruce Wayne aka Batman. The trailers are out at Apple QuickTime Site and the website shows some of the shots.

X Men: Days of Future Past

Posted: 30 Jul 2013 01:15 PM PDT

Deadline reports that Fox made quick work of replacing their vacant director's chair and will likely be able to keep their July 18th, 2014 release date as a result. Fans should be familiar with Singer's work as he wrote and directed both 2000′s X-Men and 2003′s follow-up, X2. He also turned in the script for Vaughn's X-Men: First Class along with an ensemble of other writers, including Vaughn. We also got confirmation of the title from Singer recently. It follows the 1980s' comic storyline written by Chris Claremont that alternates between a present day battle against the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, and a future timeline where an assassination of a government official has led to Sentinels roaming the land and mutants held prisoner in internment camps.
The cast from the original film is expected to return, including Jennifer Lawrence, Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy.

lenovo s870 fiasco

Posted: 30 Jul 2013 12:48 PM PDT

So my first android turns out o be lenovo s870.The piece is got is actually made for china telecom a CDMA operator in China.

 

Initially i had my eyes set on P770e but thanks to my boner for CDMA i got this one.

 

I got the piece in my hands today.The whole theme and setup looks very unandroid with msot of the preloaded apps are in mandarin.

 

They claim it has Andy 4.0.There is no google play app store.Once I did restore factory default settings which made chinese as its default language.Somehow i changed it to english again.

 

I need tonnes of help from you guys to figure out the system and performance of the phone and i also want to put some real english language supporting Andy into it.

 

I doubt CM has custom ROMS for this piece,so that goes out of picture.But i want the pleasure of Andy,no matter what :(

Beam Fiber: are you throttling Youtube

Posted: 30 Jul 2013 12:47 PM PDT

As soon as you rolled out the new plans this month, i have found Youtube buffering an annoying issue.

 

It was pretty good last month but when my speed increased to 25 Mbps (rs.1660 plan), Youtube has has become noticeably slower.

 

Although I love the speeds, the download speed is near perfect, the problem is only Youtube (I have to buffer a video on 360p on my 4Mbps fallback speed -this is not right).

 

Considering that 50% of all the browsing I do is on Youtube, this is be quite a big problem for me and I hope to hear your answer to this.

 

Has anybody else notice this problem

Wired Broadband in Millennium Tower, Sector 9, Sanpada, Navi Mumbai

Posted: 30 Jul 2013 10:18 AM PDT

Hi everyone,

 

 

We are living in a rented apartment in Millennium Tower, Sector 9, Sanpada, Navi Mumbai. Our requirement is high speed wired broadband (Total of 8 mbps atleast) and low ping. We are even willing to take upto 3 different broadband connections and even from different ISPs. This is because the flat has two floors and sharing a single net connection via wifi would be difficult as well as adversely impact the ping for the guys who are playing online games. Also, different isp means having backups is one net suffers downtime.

 

Till now only Airtel has confirmed their presence in my building but their FUP limit is ridiculous. We are willing to pay upto Rs 3000 p.m.

 

We have contacted a local cable operator by the name of "Om star" has told us that their connection is not available in our area.

 

I have also contacted Reliance about their presence in my area but they haven't reverted anything till now. Also, I am bit doubtful about their service after reading about user experiences, complaining about high ping and frequent disconnection.

 

Please suggest a broadband connection/ISP provided which operate in this area as I am new to this city/area.

 

Thanks in advance

Regards

MTNL VDSL2 experience

Posted: 30 Jul 2013 10:14 AM PDT

I wanted to start a new experience thread simply to discuss MTNL VDSL.

Some things to consider before/after taking a new VDSL connection

 

SNR margins (SNRM)
Below 9 dB : Poor experience with lots of HEC and CRC errors. Line will disconnect frequently.
9   - 11  dB : Ok but not ideal. Disconnections will be there if some unexpected variance is introduced by rains, humidity in the wire.
12 - 16  dB : Ideal and realistic value. Expect almost no disconnections as the line has more wiggle room for tolerating variances.
17 dB and up : God Mode. Lucky few get this on VDSL synced at 30 mbps and up. So far I have seen various stats and no one has reported this SNRM (That is because VDSL sync rates are always higher)

 

Higher you sync rate, lower the SNRM will be. Lower the SNRM, lower the connection reliability. Lower reliability means frequent disconnections. Hence ISP's have a setting in DSLAM to artificially increase SNRM value for a particular phone line. Hence you sync at lower rate and line automagically becomes stable.

 

Attenuation may not be that important after all. It reduces sync speeds over a distance but is not an indicator of connection reliability. (You can roughly calculate your line length from it. Do it here)

Apply for VDSL connection only if you are within half km. Otherwise you will get ADSL like sync rates.

I will update this entry with some of our findings. Since VDSL is somewhat new to India, this thread can help some early adopters.

 

Currently the speeds are decent for fast servers. But single streams are slow due to a bottleneck somewhere.

No ports available!

Posted: 30 Jul 2013 09:41 AM PDT

I've been a broadband customer with Airtel for more than 5 years now. Recently I had to shift my house and now I am unable to get my broadband shifted due to unavailable ports.

So they're willing to forgo a valuable customer just because of some ports shenanigans?

Is there a nodal officers number or mail id to which I can escalate this? And is there any option out of this Internet less mess?
