[Android] Mobile + WiFi internet = twice as fast file download

Did you know that you can use mobile and WiFi internet at the same time to increase the download speed on your Android device? If you haven’t, now you know you can! How? The answer is: Download Booster

You surf the internet over your phone and come across some larger files you need to download, turn on mobile internet and WiFi and this app will use both networks to increase download speed. Of course, this means that you will be charged for traffic that takes place over the mobile network or downloads megabytes.

This option is not so new, it came with the Galaxy S5 phone, but now anyone who has a ROOT Android device can have it.

Download Booster

However, the application has a few limitations:

  • only HTTP traffic is supported (no torrent and FTP)
  • Lite version is limited to 50MB per file (you can download the full version for free on XDA)
  • requires ROOT (not a limitation, but for some, it may be a problem)

You can download the application from the following links:

The difference between Sleep, Hibernate and Hybrid sleep options

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.

Subtitles for movies and series - COMPLETE instructions!

We often find a movie we like, but in addition to a good movie, we also need subtitles.
