Leaked Photos of Samsung Galaxy S6 Big Review of Android Lollipop

Taking a look back at the week in news across the Android world, this week’s Android Circuit highlights a number of stories including leaks around the Samsung Galaxy S6 flagship. 

 
JK Shin stays in charge at Samsung’s Mobile Division, Lollipop reviewed in-depth as it arrives on the Galaxy S5 in Poland, comparing the ‘mini’ handsets, interviewing the Russian behind the smartphone with two screens, will bloatware arrive over-the-air, Chrome’s hidden reading mode, and the best Google Play Apps and Games.

The big news is that the Galaxy S6 launch will not be for one handset, but for two – the second being the Galaxy S6 Edge. This will take the technology seen in the Note Edge that wraps a portion of the screen around the right-hand edge of the handset to act as a programmable digital spine.


The Galaxy brand has contributed almost two-thirds of Samsung’s profits over the last few years, and without a radical change in direction and strategy that contribution is going to be much lower in 2015.

WordPress Web Plugins Development – A Beginners Guide

WordPress CMS has changed the way in the field of web development providing new, innovative and prosperous ideas to developers. Today WordPress development is used in several ways benefitting all sort of businesses.

Wordpress development

WordPress is among the best platforms to create your own plugin and enhancing the functionality by placing it in your blog. Plugins can be placed anywhere in your blog. This extensibility provides a better growth to your blog in terms of visits and authority.

WordPress delivers special features for developing unique plugins. As a developer, you can get hold on your blog by developing specific plugins of your requirement. Hiring a professional PHP developer to develop WordPress plugin for your blog may cost you a lot more than you have imagined.

You can build your own plugins and sidebar widgets and get more tuned into deeper areas of WordPress CMS development. Its not just limited to WordPress, but you can also have more knowledge about other content management systems too.

An Introduction of WordPress Folder Structure


As shown in the picture, you can see the list of basic app directories. Youll find a wp-content folder, and within the folder, there is plugins directory. This plugins directory is the home for all the plugins.

If you want to create a small plugin with a single .php file, then it can be directly saved within the plugins directory, however if your file is bit complicated or consists of multiple .php files, then its better to create a sub-directory named after your plugin.

Wordpress plugin development

You can also create a readme.txt file, as its important if you are providing your file for downloading. As an author, you can also provide details about several sections of your file.

Lets Begin with Your First PHP File for WordPress Plugin Development


First of all you need to create a simple .php file for a new plugin. You can name anything to .php file, but its a good practice to name it after your plugins official name. The first few lines of your code should be information about that plugin and they must be placed in comments for the parsing engine. You can place your information as shown in picture below.

Wordpress web development

You can see the plugins name within the admin backend panel at the time of activation. Its very similar to the URI placed within the details panel inside the plugins panel.

Best Practices for WordPress Naming Conventions


Its the best practice to create an entire plugin class system to avoid the conflicts between the names of variables and functions, but if you are not familiar with the OOP concepts, then you can write all your code within one sample file.
Now we need few variables to define, which are the key elements to be implemented inside our templates files. Check the example of our file provided below taken from our plugin file with all the core logic code removed.

Wordpress plugin development

Its a better practice to follow all the rules and regulations set by WordPress to avoid collisions. As there are many internal functions within the WordPress file, there are chances of having duplicate functions. Try to make a habit of prefixing a label to all the names of your variables and functions.

Role of Filters & Actions


Filters and Actions play a very important role in developing a WordPress plugin. These two concepts have an in-depth relation in manipulating the plugin data.

Actions and Filters are two standard codes that comes along with WordPress API. The developers can also modify the codes within the Filters and Actions to use it for their new plugin.

Wordpres CMS development

Acknowledging "Add_filter()"


A filter is a piece of data that is passed into WordPress, that allows a developer to easily filter content within your own written code to modify your data as per your needs. For example, you can use the filter to change the content which is availabe in WordPress as a variable set.

Filters provide an easy way to write plugins to customize the look and feel of your website. Filters are generally used for developing sidebar widgets and small functions to modify the looks of you blog post.

Acknowledging "Add_action()"


Actions are much similar to Filters, but instead of using bits of data, they target the pre-defined areas within the template and admin panel. Actions can be applied whenever you edit or change the content of a page. There are some predefined areas where you can target Actions, some of them are listed below.

  • save_post – called when a post/page is created from start or updated
  • trackback_post– called whenever a new trackback is added into a post
  • loop_end – called immediately after the final post has been processed through the WordPress loop
  • wp_head – called when the template is loaded and runs the wp_head() function
  • publish_post– called when a post is published or when status is changed into “published”

Once youll understand the difference between Actions and Filters, then youll be able to create a comprehensive plugin for your blog.

Inputting Our Final Plugin Logic


Now well put our plugin code in the plugin file. The documentation provided to understand API comes in very handy and provides an excellent resource to developers. You may face some difficulties, if youre not comfortable with PHP language.

Add the function as shown in the picture below within your plugins header comment, and this code can also be placed within your themes function. The code provided is for a dynamic content based on limited range of characters.

Wordpress development

Finally Install & Run the Plugin


Once you have completed with the code, you need access to the WordPress administration panel and browse the current plugin file for installation.

Conclusion


Its very important to know the basics to get started with WordPress development. The WordPress plugin development provides a great deal of functionality. You can try practicing these methods on your local installation of WordPress.

When Samsung asked us if we were interested in talking about the design of the Samsung Galaxy S5, we were initially wary: the design of the S5 was received positively by no means everyone, and we also did not want a standard marketing story to influence them. mood Our answer: “yes, but only if we can get a Galaxy S5 apart”. Samsung went there immediately agree and a while back we were also compared Gerben van Walt Meijer, Marketing Manager at Samsung Mobile Phones Benelux.

Dissected Samsung Galaxy S5 was already well apart, because number of components, such as the screen, sit glued. Let this glue at high temperatures and release the S5 was already in the oven made for our meeting.

Hands on Samsung Galaxy Tab Active and Asus Memo Pad 7 – Nutech

Tablets this year were not central to the techbeurs IFA in Berlin. Sony introduces the Xperia Tablet Z3 Compact, but most other companies focused more on smartphones and smart watches.

Nevertheless knew NU.nl to track on the show floor, for a quick two new tablets first test. Our hands-on with the Xperia Tablet Z3 Compact appeared here earlier.



Samsung Galaxy Tab Active

Earlier this year, the Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 of a tablet, which appeared in formats 7, 8 and 10 inches. The middle class excelled devices nor in specifications or in appearance.

However, the Galaxy Tab Active is a very striking variant of the Tab 4 to 8 inches. It has the exact same specifications, but is inserted in a waterproof and shock-resistant housing.

This is the Active Tab is one of the strangest-looking tablets we’ve ever seen. For an 8-inch tablet, he is huge, and stunning you can not call him.

The back is made of ribbed material with four excellent bumpers, near the corners. The corners themselves have excellent lumps under Samsung could cause a fall of 1.2 meters guaranteed yields no damage. The back can be removed so that the battery can be replaced.

Samsung Galaxy Tab Active

<- block! | slideshow end ->

On the front there are three physical buttons, just like on the waterproof Galaxy S5 Active. Again, this is not really beautiful, but functional. Touch control does not work on wet appliances.

Like the Tab 4, the Active Tab screen of 1280 by 800 pixels, quad-core processor at 1.2 GHz and 1.5 GB RAM. The price of the Active Tab is not known, so it is not yet possible to say whether you get value for money.

at the fair

Unfortunately it was not possible to drop or Tab Active immersing in water. I am very curious whether the device is indeed as rough as Samsung claims.

The company is the Galaxy Tab Active on business, and the tablet does not seem too interesting. For the average consumer

Where Sony makes its tablets and smartphones waterproof so you can lie by the pool, on vacation with the Samsung Tab Active clearly not interested in the average holidaymaker. It is still unclear whether the device at all comes to lie in the shops or that he will be sold only. Directly to companies

Asus Memo Pad 7

Asus announced the IFA a new tablet of 7 inches. The Memo Pad 7 (not to be confused with the earlier Memo Pad HD 7) is described by the company spokesman as “the spiritual successor to the Nexus 7″ which was made also by Asus, but this time it seems the company’s designer having left it. device at home

Memo Pad 7 is enveloped in a huge cheap-feeling plastic casing, which apparently must look like a handbag. I do not wish it to be. Many women view it

The back of the tablet is two-tone and is separated by a ridge, causing part of the tablet is a lot thicker than the other part.

<- block! | slideshow end ->

As a whole the tablet be light (269 grams) and fairly thin (8.3 millimeters). To take it so it has a good size.

In terms of specifications, indeed does not the Memo Pad 7 under for the Nexus 7, with a full HD resolution and a 64-bit Intel Moorefield chip 1 8 GHz. The screen is beautiful and at first glance seemed to be the performance of the Intel chip quickly.

The price of 199 euros is also reasonable for a tablet with these specs, but for me, Asus had also the design closer to the Nexus 7 may continue

Microsoft Surface Pro3 Release Date 2015


Microsoft Surface Pro3 Review: The Best Surface yet is More Than A Tablet, Less Than A Laptop




Microsoft Surface Pro3 Release Date 2015-Tablets are an excellent option for consuming entertainment in addition to media, while laptops and other full PCs must actually create those works, or to ensure the conventional wisdom should go. Some substitute this charged word "productivity" for creation, but the pitch will be the same. You need one device for the, B, and H, and another for X, Y, in addition to Z.


Microsoft Surface Pro3 Release Date 2015

Microsoft Surface Pro3 Release Date



That means could possibly sizable group of people out there spending at least perhaps the time lugging around a laptop plus a tablet simultaneously. Appears guilty of that, usually packing any 13-inch ultrabook or MacBook Air in addition to an iPad in my carry-on tote for airline travel arrangements.


With the modern Surface Pro 3 coming from Microsoft, the software powerhouse (and sometimes computer hardware maker) says it finally contains the single grand unified device that could satisfy both this creation and ingestion instincts equally. Youll feel just like at home seeing a movie or reading a book since you will editing video footage or writing the novel. Of program, thats largely a similar pitch we got for that Surface Pro in addition to Surface Pro only two tablets, which points towards difficulty in translating the entire Windows 8. 1 encounter freely between any laptop and capsule. Dozens of each of our hands-on reviews of devices between 8-inch slates to 13-inch two-in-one hybrids again this up, as does this mixed reception towards first two generations in the Surface Pro. Both of those devices, as well since the Surface Pro 3, at the least begin with the correct idea and well lean toward this laptop side in the tablet spectrum, including Intel Key i-series CPUs in addition to keyboard covers created to feel more such as laptop keyboards. Surface Pro 3 has an Intel Core i3 CPU plus a 64GB SSD, you can see the imagining at Microsoft start to lean even far more toward the mobile computer side, with a new kickstand and contact cover that assist you to work at any angle.


The new Surface Pro is usually thinner than their predecessors, with a more substantial, higher-resolution screen. About that mark by yourself, it outshines this Pro and Master 2. The internal specifications and performance are largely like the Pro 2, but actually its still just like fast as just about any current-gen premium mobile computer. With the generation-over-generation tweaks towards design, especially this hinge and keyboard, you can visit a dedicated push towards advancing the reason for practical usability. It isnt really entirely there however, and its still a leap to say this is a true laptop replacement for most people, but the Area Pro 3 will be the first Surface device I find myself confident in saying I could get away with using like a primary PC product.

Design and Characteristics


Despite the talk on this being the thinnest Intel Key i-series device currently, it still isnt going to feel quite while thin and ethereal while, for example, this iPad Air. Although its thinner entire body, coupled with a more substantial 12-inch screen, give it a more upscale feel in comparison with either the Master or Pro only two, which were criticized for the certain boxiness.


Both in the previous Surface Master models had 10. 6-inch screens and were 13mm thick, with a impact of 10. 8 ins by 6. 8 ins. This new 12-inch type is 11. 5 ins by 7. 9 ins, but its thickness drops for an impressive 9. 1mm. The Pro 3 is additionally a tad light than its predecessor: 800 grams as opposed to 900. Again, if you think the larger monitor, thats a suitable achievement.


With a wink plus a nod, Microsoft states this new Area Pro design isnt really exactly fanless, but it may as well be. Thats since the new system internals, designed in partnership with Intel, allow the system run run not just ultra-low-voltage Core i3 or i5 CPUs, and also Core i7 ones, with a slim, quiet fan shifting air as needed, allegedly without that telltale whirring audio, or a supporter exhaust blowing on your hands. Our Area Pro 3, a midrange model with the Intel Core i5 COMPUTER, certainly felt trendy during our hands-on assessment, but an audible fan also kicked in on occasion. To call the experience fanless-like would not be accurate.


One major difference inside new design will be the kickstand, which may be adjusted to almost any angle between 22 degrees in addition to 150 degrees. Thats especially great for tilting the screen long ago, as an artist by using a drafting table might, but as online resources normal-size legs for the 6-foot-tall male, I still had a tough time getting the Area Pro 3 to sit comfortably on my lap. The kickstand both kept the monitor angle too severe to determine clearly while sitting, or else the tip of the kickstand had been sliding off my knees while i tilted the monitor further back.


Taking the kind of cover and stopping in its additional top-edge magnetic joint, raising the back edge in the keyboard to a better angle, helped a bit, as the brought up angle feels additional natural for typing (which is why nearly every COMPUTER keyboard has tiny feet at the back edge). It is a small change, but one that says Microsoft is usually thinking seriously concerning ergonomics.


Of face Modes and Pens

It may require a second to spot, but theres one major change towards Surface design ID on this occasion. The capacitive contact button Windows company logo -- which brings you back to the Windows 8 tile user interface -- has shifted from the bottom long edge in the chassis to one of the shorter edges.


There are two advantages for that, to my own mind. First, the new keyboard covers cover areas where the unique Windows button was located when you use the second tilt-up joint. Second, moving the Microsoft windows logo button towards short edge items users toward while using the device in face mode. Ive found that the majority of Windows tablets and hybrids were created around use within a laptop-like landscape setting, which has this screen lying next to its longest area, while the all-popular Ipad by apple is primarily understood like a device to end up being held upright within portrait mode, just like a book or magazine.


This ties straight into Microsofts strong pitch for that Surface Pro 3 as an educational device for note-taking, annotation, attracting, and sketching. The included battery-powered Wireless bluetooth pen is steel, and more substantial than versions We have tried with some other Windows 8 tablets, such as this 8-inch Asus VivoTab 8. Regarding the Asus, the Wacom stylus was created from thin plastic, but at the least it slid strait into an internal slot inside tablet body. To the Surface Pro 3, you will need to either keep within your pocket or tote, or perhaps glide it behind the ear, unless you then have a sold-separately type cover and its awkward stick-on stylus-holding trap.

Must Have Apps For Blackberry Phones

Though the Blackberry device doesnt have as much apps in the App World compared to Apple App Store and the Google App store, yet there are some great applications that are worthy to be mentioned.
Its so annoying that if not all then most RIM devices do not give you the opportunity to capture screen or take screen shots.

Many smartphones already have that feature embedded in them except of course if one is to call Blackberry phones a semi smartphone; although that is about to change come January 30th.

In other for Blackberry phones users to take something as trivial as screen shots, an app have to be downloaded to make that happen.
One the most popular screen shot app used by a lot of Blackberry users is the Screen Muncher.
I used it once and I didnt like it at all.
I hate the crunching sound it makes and the watermark it places on the image with reduced image quality.
Consequently, I decided to look more into similar apps that are silent, doesnt include watermark and gets the job done excellently. This makes me discover a lot of must have apps for Blackberry users even in the App World.
Have made a list below for you to know them and give them a try.

1. Screen Shot Capture Pro
This little app 78.6kb in size does exactly what its suppose to do. It captures the screen without any irritating sound or watermark. It just captures your screen and save it a folder called Screenshot. The image quality is high and not reduced at all as you can see from the image below.
 
2. Contacts To Excel
This application gives away its function just by its name.
It exports all your contacts to excel format and make a back of them for you. this way you can view and transfer your contacts freely even to another Blackberry device  or smartphone if so please.This is particularly of use to those that dont have Blackberry Protect to help backup their contacts.


3. Social Lock
This should interest a lot of people. Have you ever wished to lock your BBM without locking your phone altogether in other to reduce access to your bbm messages? Then this app is for you. This little app help you create a lock for all your social applications like Twitter, Facebook and of course Blackberry Messenger.
Once installed, your social apps can be configured with a lock code.
Chat Lock: Lock for BBM does the same thing and also very useful.


4. Pattern Lock For Blackberry
I know some of you peeps would have at one time envied the Android device users due to the way they unlock their phones with pattern unlocking methods.

Well, owners of touch screen Blackberry devices can benefit from this kind of unlocking method.
All you have to do is download this application and you are good to go.


5. Fancy Fonts Free
Wish to spice up the way the fonts of your text look a little bit? then this app is for you. It allows you to install fonts into your device text look beautiful and nice.
