New Nikon camera runs on Android

Rumor had it been around a while, but now it's finally available: the Nikon Coolpix S800C. The first camera that completely runs on Android and according to Engadget also one that you definitely need to get if you need a camera. The Coolpix S800C is perhaps flat, but still has the familiar look of a camera. The camera has black and white color patterns.

The camera comes with built-in GPS that allows locating pictures with geotagging. Also, the camera has a 10x optical zoom lens, 16 megapixels BSI CMOS sensor, 3.5-inch WVGA OLED touch screen, a 1080p movie capture mode, and Android 2.3. Thanks to the presence of Android it is possible to all known features of Android to use, such as installing and downloading apps (Instagram?!), Tethering with your mobile and much more.

The camera can also have its own network so that the photos can be downloaded directly via another device that can connect to the network. The camera has 4GB of internal memory, which would be more than enough to fill up the camera with photo-sharing apps and photos. The time now is wait and see how Android on a camera works and what it means for the battery.

Android File Transfer

For those who purchase a tablet and computer skills are limited, spend your first video or picture of the tablet can be a complicated operation. The truth is that the Android file transfer, so many times we can do on a PC, not so intuitive on a tablet Android or IOS.

There are several methods for transferring files with Android we can use, depending on the performance of our tablet:

    From a PC or laptop with a USB cable.
    With a microSD card.
    Via Bluetooth.
    Wirelessly from another computer with a special program.
    From the cloud, with services like Dropbox, SugarSync or similar.


With either method we use, we have a file source (a photo, video, document, or whatever), you have to go to the tablet (or vice versa). And where is left?

There are several systems in Android File Transfer

Android is based on Linux and uses the same file system. To be practical (and assuming that we are not root), we are able to access two different spaces:

With the USB cable will have the most intuitive and we'll be more accustomed: when connecting via USB to a computer tablet, will access the storage space is on the PC as if it were an external drive more. We can copy files wherever you want, create folders, etc...

Micro SD cards. Assuming you already have a card with the content you want to move to the tablet, it will access the location / Removable / MicroSD.

Reaching this route depends on the browser we use. I recommend ES File Explorer, which I find the most complete. With him, to access the microSD card click on "Favorites" and will directly access the microSD.

Normally, you can also directly access the contents of the microSD card from the application you wish to use. For example, if we want to open a Word document from the Polaris Office program, just click on "Folders" and leave us a choice SD card or internal storage.

Via Bluetooth. To transfer a file from a computer to a tablet via Bluetooth, we have only to follow the same steps as if we do it with a smartphone, which depend on the source computer. If we want to send from the tablet to any other team, no more than point out the file to send, indicate "Share -> Bluetooth" and choose your destination from the list of teams that we get visible.

Via Wifi. To use this system, we have set up a network in which are contained the source or destination computer and our tablet. Then, we can use the same browser, such as ES Explorer, to order as we would transfer between two computers. Configure the network can be a bit long and confusing, so I'll talk about this issue in another post later.

Through Dropbox or similar service in the cloud. To use this system, which otherwise seems most comfortable, we must have a Dropbox account or similar service, of course, and install the program on the source computer and destination (one of them is supposed to be our tablet). Then install the program on your tablet DropSync or Android smartphone.

Of this system in a previous post we talked.

Dropbox allows you to have a storage space where you get the type of files you want, with the folder structure you want, something like a virtual flash drive. The computers that have Dropbox installed the program (or Dropsync in Android); copy those files you have in the cloud on your computer, keeping all copies synchronized: what you change on your tablet will also change in the cloud and your PC.

So, to send a video to your tablet, you just have to copy it to the Dropbox folder on your PC. When you synchronize everything (need Wifi or 3G), you'll also video on the Dropbox folder on your tablet.

Asus tablet TF300 is updated to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean

About four weeks after the confirmation of the arrival of Android 4.1 ‘Jelly Bean' for the second generation ASUS Transformer tablet seems this weekend has already started with the actual deployment of the update. Almost immediately after the company on his Facebook page posted a teaser, appeared on various forums the first reports of receipt.

This Tegra 3 tablet seems to become the first non-Google device that through official channels to update is to Android 4.1. Until now, the update because only available for the Nexus 7 tablet and Galaxy Nexus and Nexus S smartphone, ie, only devices in cooperation with Google and Samsung respectively ASUS has made.

That ASUS is the first manufacturer who Jelly bean updates rolls out, is probably not a coincidence. The group is indeed largely responsible for the production of the Nexus 7 and has thus been possible to gain some experience. The competition is also not quiet because including Samsung and HTC have already announced updates to receive current devices like the Galaxy S3 and One X. Reportedly will not be long in coming.

New Android 4.1 Jelly Bean includes Google Now, a clever service that results from various Google services combine your personalized information to offer. Under the guise of Project Butter is also quite tinkering under the hood, so your phone with Jellybean a significantly faster response to offer and the operating system in general smoother working.

Android App: Block unwanted phone in Android

If you want to block a phone number, you should first consider whether it is locked or normal phone number. If it is a normal phone, it can be the number as a contact and the contact information on the menu button. You'll come to an option menu where you can check the phone number you want to send directly to your voicemail. If you have to stand out, so the caller can not reach you. If you have a voicemail, the caller can still leave voice messages voicemail. With HTC you can run this by long pressing on a contact and then 'block' button.

A locked phone is more difficult to block. Thereby blocking all blocked numbers, sometimes even government agencies or other companies may have. If you still blocked phone number block, it is best to install the free app Easy filter. In EasyFilter you can control who you can call and which phone numbers are blocked.

Lenovo K860 smartphone Quad-Core with Android 4.0.4 ICS

Lenovo LePhone K860: new quad-core Android smartphone. IBM is one of the most important hardware companies that exist in the world. In 2011, the company was ranked number eighteen in size. But IBM is not known for that, but for its ancient golden age, where they developed the IBM PC, the forerunner of today's personal computers that we all have, and the best selling personal computer of all time. Although not all glory is IBM. Their personal computers were the best sellers in the world, by a very attractive stable operating system, recently acquired a student for a small company of a man with glasses: Microsoft. The system chosen was called MS-DOS. Then come the Windows 1.0 graphical environment.

But that's ancient history. Today, IBM owns about 20% of Lenovo, and in turn, Lenovo bought IBM's PC division. Maker Lenovo is brand laptops, tablets and phones among other things, a brand that offers high quality, though not overly affordable prices and that has a history behind the PC's. With this background, Lenovo has a giant phone, the Samsung Galaxy Note type, with a five-inch screen. Specifically, this new handset by the name of Lenovo K860. This terminal as it is about fashion, is a tetra nuclear Smartphone, ie with a quad-core processor, which is specifically the 1.4 GHz Exynos. Accompanying 1 GHz RAM and about the operating system, at least for now we will be talking about Android Ice Cream Sandwich, but we hope that at some point see an update to Jelly Bean.

His other great features, we must take into account the size. While a five-inch phone may seem rather large, we must take into account the thickness of less than 10mm. Moreover, the weight is not very severe: 186 grams. Its five-inch screen has a resolution of 1280 x 720 mega pixels, and the camera is 8 mega pixels, and in the area of the battery will have to take into account this: a 2250 mAh battery, higher than the of many netbook.

The release date today, is a mystery. If you know the place is your home country, China. But no one knows when it will launch or whether more countries, although it is logical to think that it will. Funny how times change, and if needed before moving smaller, the advent of the Internet to these terminals, makes us increasingly the biggest prefer to see on the screen the same as we would see on the screens of our computers more professionals. Soon more terminals arrive as Galaxy Note or this Lenovo, including the new iPhone abandon its three-inch screen and is updated half arriving at 4 inches.

this device is very powerful and even shares some of the specifications of the Samsung Galaxy S3, but what really left me with doubts is that  Music Phone name because my taste is focused on a single topic in multimedia particular, being that Lenovo had mentioned that seeks to expand the applications dedicated to that topic and entertainment.

Said device? Hit the American market? Most likely yes, but as usual, the terminal will initially be available only in China and will be launched officially in September at a price which even today is unknown, but according to estimates could be around $ 800 dollars.
