Battery drain after updating to 4.3 (nexus 7 wifi 2012)

Posted: 02 Sep 2013 10:52 AM PDT

Yesterday I updated my  nexus 7 wifi to 4.3 and did a full tablet reset. But now the battery drains much faster and It took just 2 hours to go from 100% to 10% after heavy usage. 

 

Even when not used, It drains around 5% in half an hour. Earlier I used to get much better backup but now It got worse. Seems like display is using around 77% battery even when the brightness is set to least possible setting and and with daydream turned off.

Hi,

    I am using airtel 8mbps plan. I need to share it with 2 pc's (wireline connection via ethernet) via a beetle 220bx modem. I want the dialer mode (bridge mode) and not PPPOE mode. Is it possible to use beetle 220bx modem and use the ethernet line for one pc and USB cable for other pc?.

Accused of sexual misconduct, Asaram Bapu is being allowed to violate every rule in the book to save his skin

Posted: 02 Sep 2013 08:55 AM PDT

Instead of chasing Asaram Bapu down and questioning him thoroughly, the Jodhpur police gave him time till August 30 to appear before them, failing which he would be arrested. Meanwhile, Asaram Bapu has gone to Madhya Pradesh and has started 'Operation Fightback'. On Thursday, he accused Congress president Sonia Gandhi and her son and party vice-president Rahul Gandhi of orchestrating false accusations against him. Unsurprisingly, now with his back to the wall, he and his cohorts are also going all out to defame the minor girl. His son has alleged that the girl is mentally ill, while Asaram Bapu has offered to give Rs. 5 lakh to anyone who can prove him guilty. The godman seems to have forgotten that we have a functioning legal system and it has the wherewithal to decide whether the godman is guilty or not.

MNP: How It Works!!

Posted: 02 Sep 2013 05:49 AM PDT

Brief description of existing MNP process:

In the existing framework for porting of a mobile number:
Subscriber desirous of porting his number approaches Recipient Operator (new operator to whom the subscriber wish to move).

Before filling up of Port-in form, he goes through eligibility & other conditions and after completing the required verification process, submits Customer Application Form (CAF) to the Recipient Operator.

Subscriber generates Unique Porting Code by sending a SMS to the no. „1900‟ and fill it in the porting form. In case of J&K LSA, subscriber has to call „1900‟.

The Recipient Operator forwards the porting request of the subscriber with certain key details (Mobile number, Unique Porting Code, date of receipt of porting request) to the respective MNP service provider. The MNP service provider in turn forwards this request to the Donor Operator for clearance.

The Donor Operator verifies the porting request with respect to eligibility conditions and grounds for rejections, permitted under the MNP regulations and clears or rejects the porting request within the time stipulated in the regulations under intimation to the MNP service provider.

In case the porting request has been cleared by the Donor Operator, the MNP service provider co-ordinates switchover by informing the date/time of switchover to both Donor and Recipient Operators and facilitates disconnection and connection of the number at the time of porting.

At the predefined time of porting, the Donor Operator disconnect the number and inform to MNPSP. Similarly the
Recipient Operator activates the number and informs the same to the MNPSP.

The MNPSP then broadcasts new Location Routing Number (LRN) to all the operators for the purpose of routing of all the future calls from the ported number.

Routing of calls in MNP scenario:

It may be noted that after implementation of MNP, routing of calls is carried out based on the Location Routing Number (which uniquely identifies a service provider‟s network) prefixed to the 10 digit mobile number. In the pre-MNP scenario routing of calls used to take place based on Mobile switching Codes.

When a call is to be made to a ported number, the calling party network first queries its number portability database to find the current LRN of the called party mobile number i.e in whose network the subscriber is presently available. Accordingly, on 6 the basis of LRN information, call is routed to the concerned service provider‟s network.

Movies OK - Another Hindi Movie channel from STAR Group?

Posted: 02 Sep 2013 05:37 AM PDT

Star to launch 'Movies OK'

I wonder why they want to launch this new movie channel when they have STAR Gold.

I guess it will add up for broadcasting old movies (low cost), and generate some revenue by getting few advertisers onboard.

Kovy stays top at Silverstone

Wednesday, 25 June 2008 17:26

Heikki Kovalainen completed an encouraging second day of testing for McLaren at Silverstone by remaining on top of the times at the end of Wednesday's session.

The Finn, who finished second and 0.3s behind Ferrari rival Felipe Massa on Tuesday, completed 72 laps in the MP4-23 with his best time from the morning session of 1m20.015s remaining unbeaten during the rest of the day.

It was also an impressive day for Toyota, whose strong form from Magny-Cours continues at Silverstone with Jarno Trulli setting the second fastest lap, almost 0.4s back on Kovalainen.

Kovalainen: We’ve made progress

Wednesday, 25 June 2008 19:09

Heikki Kovalainen believes McLaren has made a definite step forward in competitiveness at this week’s Silverstone test and is confident the Mercedes-powered team will be able to challenge Ferrari at the British Grand Prix.

The Finn topped the times on Wednesday by 0.4s and declared himself satisfied with the way the car handled on both days.

“I think we’ve made a small step forward,” he told reporters at Silverstone.

“Looking at the runs, I was consistently able to set very competitive times; it wasn’t just one run that we did just to get a time. That is quite encouraging.

Reliance - Most horrible service

Posted: 02 Sep 2013 04:11 AM PDT

Do not know where to start. But, by far this is most horrible experience i am having with reliance broadband thunder plan 549. They claim it is 1mbps plan, but when you open gmail and facebook, it take 5 min to load. And if you are running torrent, then forget about opening gmail and facebook.

 

I took the plan on August 1st week and from very beginning i started experiencing a very slow speed and frequent fluctuation in service. Every now and then net was going down. After several complains, this was improved. But, problem with slow internet experience. Even after calling them several times, they are not resolving the issue. Everytime thay will raise a new ticket and reply , "we will get back in 24 hours"

 

Next thing is there front desk support. The way they will talk to you, as if they are paying for you and you are using the service for free. 2 times they close my ticket without even calling me. I was so frustrated with this pathetic service, so gave a termination request on 28th August. They said, their backend team will call me within 48 hours. And i got a call also, but the guy from other side said "welcome to reliance world and this is a welcome call". After 3 weeks of horrible experience, i got a call saying welcome to reliance world. Do not understand how this company runs and how is coordination between their front end and back end.

 

I am still waiting, when their 48 hour will be over and they will deactivate my account. I will never refer anybody to go with reliance broadband.

BSNL ADSL Broadband Becomes Pathetic Between 12 PM ans 6 PM

Posted: 02 Sep 2013 04:03 AM PDT

Is it only me or anyone else is also having this same problem. BSNL broadband performs great at night and morning (and sometimes at also in evening). But it becomes almost pathetically slow (though speedtest.net result show fast speeds always) after noon.

ACT Broadband Bangalore Reviews

Posted: 02 Sep 2013 03:46 AM PDT

Hello Readers,

My name is Vivek Sinha Anurag and i am going to post some "great" work shown by Act Broadband.

I applied for ACT Broadband 5 Mbps plan [its having cap value of 35GB after that speed will reduce to 256 kbps] by calling their customer care on 16th Aug 2011. I was surprised to see their lightening fast response as the representative came to my doorstep the very next day and on 17th Aug 2011 Mr Ashitt O.S. collected the money and documents and told me that withing 5 days i will get my connection and i even got sms confirmation that my request no is 142263.

Now the real story started. Even after 6 days no one ever bothered to check my request so i called customer care [ 080-42840000] to remind them and i was told that i will get it withing next 2 days. I waited for next 2 days and called them again.

I was surprised to learn a new technical term from them that they are "Uploading network" hence its taking time and soon i will get my connection. Since my work was getting affected because of their delay i applied for a BSNL connection too. Now today is 5th September and i am still waiting for the connection and to my surprise i got the BSNL broadband last week.

I tried escalating this matter and asked the customer care for any high level contact and they said that i need to mail helpdesk@acttv.in. I emailed them but i got no response.

Please note some points regarding ACT broadband before applying ACT broadband
1. They dont have nodal officer/appellate authority [against TRAI rules and i have already escalated this matter to TRAI officials with the help of pgportal.gov.in]
2. They have a customer base of 2500 users in bangalore and they are not able to manage even this small number.
3. They DO NOT PROVIDE STATIC IP [even if they claim to do so]
4. Their customer care service is useless. All you will losse is your balance by talking to them
5. They can "Upload network" [You can imagine the understanding capability of their technicians]
6. They are fast in collecting money but lazy in delivering service

Final conclusion: To be on safe side stay away from them else you will suffer like me. Morning shows the day and even before using their service i am suffering. Don't know what will happen when i get the connection and i face any problem that time.

Internet Rates to hike upto 30 %

Using the internet may become up to 30 per cent costlier as the department of telecom on Friday issued corrigendum to the new telecom licences agreement bringing revenue from these services under its cess net. As per the initial version of the unified licence on August 2, DoT had exempted internet services revenue from adjusted gross revenue (AGR) — part of telecom company's earnings on which annual licence fee is levied. It had said that AGR will be calculated after deducting revenue from pure internet (access and content) services, sales tax paid to the government and roaming revenue paid to other operators from the total revenue earned by telecom service providers. However, in the corrigendum on calculation of AGR DoT has said: "Revenue from Pure Internet Service under heading B-Deduct stands deleted."
