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.

Video calls are coming to Messenger Lite

Video calls are coming to Messenger Lite

Messenger Lite is, as you might guess, a "lighter" version of the Messenger app for weaker devices. Facebook has made an effort, so it has improved this Lite version enough that we can use it without any problems instead of the standard application. However, the only option that was missing soon arrived here - video calls.

The lack of video calls in this application was the only obstacle for many users to switch to the Lite version of Messenger. Yes, this version is intended for weaker devices, but the classic Messenger "eats" the battery, memory, and CPU on the Galaxy S7 phone, which is a fairly new model. So I was thinking of switching to Lite as soon as they introduced video calls.

Facebook stated that they are introducing video calls here as well because they are quite popular with users, which is confirmed by the doubling of the number of calls in 2017 compared to 2016 via Messenger.

They also stated that the use of video calling in Lite is the same as in the original application, which means that it is enough to tap the camera icon in the upper right corner of the correspondence window. The user you are inviting must approve the video call and after doing so you can start a video call. You can also switch to video chat with voice by clicking on the camera icon at the bottom of the screen.

But, what they did not clarify is whether the quality of the video will be the same, better, or worse, that is. whether it will have some kind of special compression (it would be good to implement the "PiedPiper" compression algorithm here). This is most important since Lite is intended for those who have weaker devices and who are in areas with a weak mobile signal (slow internet).

How to ROOT a phone in 30 seconds

By Administrator
Recently, an application appeared that ROOTs some Android devices in a few seconds! You don't need Odin or anything else, just that app, and in a few seconds, your phone is rooted. An app called  ExynosAbuse can be found on the XDA forum, downloaded, and installed for free on your phone. After starting, all you have to do is press " Root device " and it will do its job in a few seconds. You don't even have to restart your phone, you will only be notified that the ROOT has passed successfully and you will see the SuperSu icon.

How to change IMEI number on Android phone?

By Administrator
IMEI is an abbreviation of "international mobile equipment identity" and each mobile phone should have a unique IMEI number. You cannot change this number with the operator, but you can temporarily change it on your device. It allows the operator to accurately identify your device and thus enable/disable network services. Also, you can use the possibility of changing the IMEI number, at least for a short time, if you know exactly what you want, but I leave those ideas to you because this is an educational article.

Mobile Browsers

By Administrator
The Internet on mobile devices is becoming more popular and has more and more users. As mobile internet expands, so do mobile browsers. Although the devices themselves already have built-in basic internet browsers, new browsers are constantly appearing. The reason is that each of the programs brings something new and useful. For example, Opera Mini is most popular on older phone models that use Java applications, while on Android platforms Chrome , Firefox ,  Dolphin , and xScope are more represented.
