Here's what a VPN can't protect you from (but you need to use it)

By Administrator
The abbreviation " VPN " has slowly become established among average Internet users, which is certainly good, but the problem is that people have started to see VPN as the ultimate solution to all problems.

[Unofficial] Android KitKat 4.4 for Galaxy S2

By Administrator
[Unofficial] Android KitKat 4.4 for Galaxy S2

As Android 4.4 has not officially come out for the Galaxy S2 we have to rely on the famous  CyanogenMod - thank you Google for Android OpenSource! I found one ROM based on CM11 that is really stable and incredibly fast. Below I write what a ROM is, its characteristics, and how to install it.

POUND ROM is his name and comes to us from Korea from developer lion0738. It is Korea, but of course, ROM has all the languages, including Serbian. Only during the installation, something is written in their language, but that doesn't matter, English is what we need.

Key features:

  • Cyanogenmod 11 (4.4.2 KOT49H)
  • Aroma Installer (during installation you can choose what you want to install additionally and whatnot)
  • Gapps included (Gapps is already inserted so you don't have to install it separately)
  • It is very stable
  • STweaks (has a custom Kernel and you can adjust the voltage, CPU, I/O, etc. - for more advanced users)
  • AOKP systematic animations (settings > interface > AOKP animations)
  • Appbar
  • Odexed framework and apps
  • Normal and LINARO version! Linaro is a much faster version and it is something new you can see how effective Linaro really is on Youtube
  • And best of all - everything works!

How to install Pound ROM:

(Classic custom ROM installation method)

Before you start: you must have a ROOT device. This means you lose your warranty if you take your phone with a mobile operator. The disclaimer is at the bottom.

  1. Download the Pound ROM and insert the .zip file into the phone. Back up your data (phonebook, call history, messages…), your pictures from the camera and everything from the SD card and Internal memory are NOT deleted!
  2. Install CM 10.2 Kernel via CWM (flash method) - LINK
  3. Restart the phone. If it doesn't work, just re-enter CWM, you'll definitely have to
  4. Wipe Data (factory reset), Wipe Cache, Wipe System, Wipe Dalvik cache
  5. Install Pound ROM with the classic FLASH method: Install zip > path/to/file/cm-11-2013xxxx > Install
  6. Aroma installer will launch, everything works by touch and you can choose whether you want some applications or not. Next is not written in English but you will know that it is next because of the arrow to the right.
  7. When it's all over (very quickly), tap "Restart" and wait. The first time it will rise maybe a little longer so don’t panic.
  8. You have Android KitKat 4.4 on your Galaxy S2! Enjoy.

I disclaim any responsibility for this tutorial because I am not the author of the software used in this tutorial. In the meantime, it is possible to change the way of rooting or other critical activities on the mobile phone or to update the tools used here.

Everything you do with the phone you do at your own risk!

The Galaxy Note was ridiculed when it appeared, and now…

By Administrator
Did you know that the first Samsung Galaxy Note was ridiculed by users and the media? Everyone laughed at his "huge" case and said that it would fall apart immediately after it appeared. They said that it was too big and that such a phone would never be used every day.

The difference between Sleep, Hibernate and Hybrid sleep options

By Administrator
What is the difference between regular Sleep mode and Hybrid sleep mode? And what is Hibernate ? I will try to explain in the simplest way possible so that everyone understands nicely. 1. Sleep When you select Sleep mode , all components of the computer except RAM are shut down to store data. So, if you do something on the computer and press Sleep, the computer shuts down and everything you did (left open windows, documents, etc.) is stored in RAM.

To click on the post or not?

By Administrator
Recently, Facebook has been flooded with " click bait " posts, and sometimes you don't know if there is something really useful behind that post or if it's just collecting clicks. There is a plugin that can partially reveal this to you. Nothing special, it's a Chrome extension called " Photo Zoom ". What does he actually do? Enlarges the image you hover over by loading the source address of the image . How can it help? Clickbait posts often "trick" users into clicking with an image (in addition to terrible headlines). They place those pictures so that only a part of them is visible on the Facebook wall and just enough to interest your potential. If you want to see the whole thing, you have to click on the link, which is their goal.

What is GLONASS?

By Administrator
If you've looked at the detailed specification of an Android or GPS device, you may have seen another term next to the GPS tag and didn't know exactly what it represents. Well,  GLONASS is a global navigation system that was started by the USSR in 1976, so this project could be taken over by Russia after the collapse of the Soviet Union.
