SAMSUNG introducing multitasking: samsung galaxy note 10.1

The advantage of the Computers over phone's and tablets is that in Computer you can be doing tasks at one time and keeping the track of all of them at the same time. One might using facebook in one tab, gmail in other, or doing some editing on photoshop or anthing thing else that one is interested in.

All these are not possible in phone's or tablets as don't have that large screens or the tasks may be running in the background but you can't track them.
So to overcome this restriction Samsung introduces its new multitasking feature with its tab called Samsung GALAXY NOTE 10.1....the device goes on sale this Thursday at the price of $550....

With this multitasking feature one can open more than one applications on the same screen like if one is using facebook and youtube the screen will split into two parts and you could be working with both of the applications.
Samsung Electronics is supplementing Multi-Window with a feature called Pen Window.With it, simply draw a box on the screen with the included stylus, and choose one of seven apps to open in a new window. Do it again and again until you open all seven apps, if you wish. For now, Pen Window on the tablet works with YouTube, the calculator, the alarm clock, your contacts list, the Web browser and two chat apps....

Get All Your Movies and TV Shows Sitting in PC’S, On Ipad and Tablet

Here is the way to get media library from your PC to your tablet/Ipad without actually transferring the files. At least not anymore.



If you have a meticulously arranged collection of movies and TV shows sitting on multiple hard drives, connected to the PC. The question now arises as how to get all of them on your tablet without transferring that whole huge amount of data actually…..So here is solution for Android  and iPad…..

The Plex application bundle……Plex is a media centre application that will aggregate the media in the folder you point it towards.

SETUP PLEX
Plex has two components

SERVER  APP: need to be install on the pc containing all the media that you wish to share on the portable devices.
Once you have installed the app on PC you’ll need to point the server to the folder which contains the media files. The app is capable of updating the change in the content of the folder.
This application is free to download for Windows, Mac and Linux operating system.

CLIENT APP : it is need to be install on your tablets and iPad and can be download from apple and android markets. Even you can get in on windows phone also.

This app is basically meant to access the library and view content, and within that, you get the decent amount of tweaks and settings for pictures and sound quality.

Plex media server can send media to devices running plex client. Both machine need to be connected to the same network. Once you have the server app up and running on the same network, open the client on and device and within few second the library being broadcast by the server will appear on the device.



We have tested the app on both iOS and Android and it is very good. It was able to stream a 1080p video file over wireless network without any stutters...So give it a try,...make it use full

Stream audio to your android via Wi-Fi

Imagine you've install a great home theatre with a large HD display and you want to watch a movie at night without disturbings others you will have to use headphones with long wire... And what if you have a friend..... you will need a pair of earphones with a hardware that can split a single output so to use more than one earphone.




What if you could do all this for free with your android phone???....


All you need is a PC, SEVER SOFTWARE, AND AN ANDROID APP CALLED SOUNDWIRE


SoundWire is a simple app which routes all audio from your PC to android device via local wireless network.


Now we comes to how to setup all this:
First you have to setup a server which is very simple.


#Go http://georgielabs.net from your PC and download the server based on your operating system (window, linux, apple or any other) and install it.



# Open the application it will look as shown below
Server window will show your IP address, the status and number of devices connected.
If you are using any DVD player or external media player you can choose from the list else it can be left as "Default Multimedia Device".


# Now on your phone simple to go the play store and install SoundWire ( the only difference between the paid and free version is that the former allows multiple users to connect to the same server at the same time)



# Once the app is installed all you have to do is enter the IP address of the server (pc) and hit the large SOUNDWIRE icon.


You might get issues with audio delay and the audio and video might not be in sync...... To resolve that we suggest to set the audio bit rate to low number.......

Enjoy make it usefull..!!

HOW TO BOOST YOUR ANDROID PHONES

Here we come up with some easy tips and tricks to achieve the best battery and performance out of your android device.

DELETE UNUSED PRE-LOADED APPS:
If you pick any device from any one sony, nokia, Samsung,moto,LG all of them comes with a bunch of pre loaded apps and often we don’t use that much and stay as it is. Some of these apps stay active in the background and consume your memory. So it’s better uninstall all these pre loaded apps and skin from the path:
Settings>Device>Apps 


UPDATE ON REGULAR BASIS:
It is advise to all the users that you must update your phone on regular basis as the apps we as using somehow have the bugs which the company tries to remove each time with the update. So for a good performance one should update the device regularlily.


FEWER WIDGETS:
One of the best features of android device is that you can customize your home screen with the widgets and live screen wallpapers. The downside to this is that they consume a lot of battery .You would do a lot better if you have fewer widgets and a normal wallpaper.
Widgets and live wallpapers consume not only the battery but the memory of your android device as well. Switching them off means that the device will become smoother.


TRANSFER APPS TO SD CARD:
It is recommended to move all the apps installed on phone memory to transfer it to SD card to provide the space to the device internal system.


BACKGROUND DATA AND CONNECTIVITY OPTIONS:
In android it is very easy to sync your contracts, apps and other information between devices.Unfortunately  the background sync will help you save battery life of the smartphone.It is easy to sync your device with simple click.
on android smartphone we have bunch of  connectivity options like 3G, Wi-fi, Bluetooth and GPS.Sure all  these connectivity options are great but you dont use them all the time, so all these options can be switched off while your are not really using these functions like switch off wifi when you  leave wifi zone, switch to 2G from 3G when your phone is ideal, switch off GPS and location services after you have checked-in or finish using google maps, setting the brightness to auto will help you save the battery  but it is better if you manually control the brightness and set it to as low as possible.


CLEARING MOMERY:
If you have a smartphone that has low ram, you will notice quite a bit of lag, especially if you multitask heavily. There are a bunch of apps on play store such as Clean Master, Memory Cleaner, History eraser and more. These apps help you clear the cache and also help free memory being consumed by apps in the background at any given point of time.



MONITORING APPS:
Apps like Elixire 2, System Tuner, Android Assistant, Greenify and many more... Help you not only to improve the battery life of smartphone but also help in enhancing the performance by managing the apps and memory usage of the device.
