WHATSAPP VOICE CALLING FEATURE UNVEILED! What you need to know about its Activation




Whatsapp articles have frequented my articles in my latest posts and i guess most of you have noticed how magnanimous I act towards Whatsapp when it comes to showcasing its unveilings. ( I have a feeling these people, "Whatsapp" should just make me a shareholder already, just for my indefatigable effort to act the herald!).
 That having been said here goes the main news feed ... Whatsapp has now included a voice calling feature in the popular IM application,  to keep its users even more thrilled and coerce them if not baby-rock them, to remain loyal guys, putting the radicalization  exhibited in sabotaging  the  Moded Whatsapp plus into an oblivion. Read:


Well I applaud Whatsapp for its undying love to its users by employing quite a fascinating yet tantalizing feature in a bid to counter the ban of Whatsapp plus. Damage control is always relevant in times of such uproars and dissatisfaction I agree.
Now that the calling feature is here let’s get onto how to activate this "bomb" of a voice call:


Activating voice calls on Whatsapp



  • First make sure you have updated your Whatsapp to at least the latest version. I am currently using v.2.11.556 and its working just fine. Nevertheless for optimum outcome download v.2.11.561 on the official Whatsapp website and will have your paraphernalia set for the magic!
This is the message you should expect if you don't update your whatsapp



  • After the download from the official site you can now install the .apk making sure you have allowed the installation from “Unknown Sources” in you phone.The path to enabling this feature in android is in most cases setting/security/unknown source


  •  Consequently you will be needed to outsource the key to its activation which is simply done by asking someone with the Whatsapp voice calling feature enabled to call you.


  •  After you have been called and you receive the call you will notice the subtle truth coming into play, three tabs will appear on the home screen of your Whatsapp application. Just like that!(yes this is the point you get to agree with me that magic is indeed tangible if not real!)



Now that will be a reality check that you have finally qualified to dine on the table of  Whatsapp subscribers with a complete buffet of features on you phone! (Ooh! excuse my courtesy.. you're welcome again, however late)
Now you can directly call your contacts via Whatsapp void of its affiliation to the custom phone dialer.
Regards to my team who facilitated its success


Tell us what you think about this new feature. Will it be your daily cup of tea? or would you rather keep to coffee like me?

SAMSUNG GALAXY S6 WILL BE ON YOUR HANDS WITH A FEEL OF APPLE COUNTENANCE!

 High end phones are fast approaching and the thrill they tag along seems inevitable! It is with this same sophistication that companies are taking their game in the tech industry to a whole new echelon to remain relevant in the market.
Giant company Samsung is being given a run for its money by the superior  company Apple and they are not just about to remain inferior. Here is where the counter comes in...
Samsung is just about to deliver their latest S-series which will be the Samsung Galaxy S6. Speculations will always be there and this is where i get to be entitled to my opinion, however conservative and loyal you might be to Samsung  it must  face a little critisism at least from me. (No offense but i just love Apple ...the fruit!..and the gadgets  also hit me with a sporadic attack of goosebumps...but still i remain loyal to Android!)
Seemingly Samsung wants to  be Apple "when it grows up" so to speak .


The design they have employed on the S6 is quite a deliberate attempt to make users have a short-lived dream that they  are actually using Apple. Well i call that quite a mischievous sneak-peak to the fruity side of life! Apple is the fruit here and and Samsung wants to have a bite of the very fruit they should render forbidden! but again its true what they say.. if you cant beat them"clone" them...ooh i mean join them! (Now you can guess who won.)
Samsung galaxy s6 nevertheless has loads to offer this time round and believe me you, they have  just dropped a bomb! more like a thunderous tornado in a smooth clean sweep operation! yeah  some things have just been swept off. Here's the breakdown on this powerful device!

SAMSUNG GALAXY S6 REVIEW AND SPECIFICATION

  •       DESIGN 

 

Samsung are doing away with the previous plastic casing and using metal in its place to bring out  a metal, glass and a transparent finish.




Now this where i throw in the bombshell Samsung really did borrow a page or two from apple...no wait! its more than two! . The similarities exhibited are; Sim tray which is in the i-phone style, Display bazel, i-phone style too, Antenna bands and the side buttons!

 And there you have it.. a crunchy bite off that Apple!

The phone comes in four shades, white pearl, black sapphire, gold platinum, blue topaz
The screen is quite good with a QHD resolution, 577ppi , 2560x1440 density pixel,  and a 5.1 inch display with SuperAmoled Technology that has a brightness boost of upto 600cd/m2. This means there will be no problem having a better view even in the Sahara desert where the sun seems closer to the earth than the rest of the world!

The battery is non-removable with a capacity of 2550mAh. Yes no more battery removal ..i-phone users can now revert to the removable one so that they can feel lesser cloned! so the joke that comes with i-phone users telling Android users to keep  their phones silent or their batteries be removed  is  a musing  that is officially overdue,archaic and uncalled for!
  •  PROCESSOR AND RAM

This device is fitted with a Quadcore Exynos SoC  processor that clocks at 2.1 GHz and an additional low power 1.5GHz Quadcore  low power CPU  with ARM's big.LITTLE  architecture.
The processor has a 14nm  fabrication  process that will ensure smooth operation and less power consumption
64-bit  chip that will give it a conducive environment to work with android lollipop
 see also;
 3GB RAM of LPDDR4 will also be therein
  •  CAMERA

 

The camera will be  16 megapixel back and 5mp front with a lens of f/1.9 aperture to allow more light.
Another upgrade is the optical image stabilization to improve low light photography
  • STORAGE 

The s6 will not have an SD memory card slot but will offer an option between 32,64 and 128 GB of their devices and let users choose where their pockets lie. Yeah i smell escalating prices too!
  •  WIRELESS AND SENSORS 

 It has the latest Technologies like the LTE CAT 6 with upto 300 mbps , 802.11  ac wifi with upto 600mbps and a bluetooth 4.1(LE) .
Sensors include 
Accelerometer, Barometer, Gryscope and a Heart-Rate Monitor

  • FINGERPRINT SENSOR AND MOBILE PAYMENT

The fingerprint reader is located on the home button just like the s5
In readiness to upcoming mobile payments the device is already made that very generation branded SamsungPay.




With all that having been said, now you know the honorable thing to do... Go get it, Ship it or just sit there and admire the fuss its all a plus!

WHATSAPP FOR WEB IS HERE... SEND MESSAGES FROM YOUR PC






Technological advancements and updates are being unveiled by the hour and users are also out to embrace them upon their release. Such are the news whatsapp is delivering to PC users who spend most of their time on the web.
 Whatsapp experience has now been brought to the web with PC users being served the taste of that sophistication that always makes whatsapp a popular instant messaging app on mobile phone! Simply this intimacy is now being brought to your desktop too, so you don't have to be caught in a dilemma wondering if you should pick that phone and reply a whatsapp message or continue ogling at this new  damsel you met online and has just sent you her luscious voluptuous  galleries. 
So its problem solved for those that spend too much time on the web and actually trivialize the potential of their phone.
 Whatsapp is making your phone a little less useful and allowing you to actually kill  two birds with one stone! Did someone just say jackpot! just hold up this feature comes with a price tagged onto it so brace yourself for the  demerits .Yes its inadequacies are also part of the news!




REASONS WHY WHATSAPP FOR WEB WILL NOT BE YOUR DAILY CUP OF COFFEE

Only works concurrently with your phone app.

 

The whatsapp web version works contemporaneously with  your phones version of whatsapp. This means that you will only get the messages to your web whatsapp when your phone data is turned on.Only messages received on your smartphone will be forwarded to your browser. This therefore confirm that the web version is not a standalone app and therefore directly affiliated to your smartphone! Yes the struggle continues no independence yet!


 Only works with Google chrome!

Chrome is a google browser  that is being offered the full and only rights to run the web whatsapp! You probably even don't use chrome however good and hybrid a broswer  but these guys are contemptuously telling you to dump those dubious browsers you are using now... the likes of firefox, safari, internet explorers and your other "side chicks" and embrace chrome! What could be a better way to dupe web users and swindle them to their side .. the chrome side of life!

Does not work with iOS 

 

Regardless of  iOS superiority and popularity, it has been deprived of the whatsapp web feature which has only been left for android user. Tales of incompatibility in push notifications and multitasking have been used by the company for a coverup! Its a humble decline ..no web whatsapp for i-phone users



The short coming do not end there... your phone battery juice is exhausted with the same thirst that the mobile data or wifi consumes it!

From an overall perspective  the shortcomings seem to be superfluous  rendering this invention quite limited! We look forward to a scintillating  experience in its future releases!

WHY YOUR WHATSAPP PLUS COULD BE SHUT ANY TIME SOON!



















Whatsapp being a renowned IM  in the social messaging platform has its consumption and number users incrementing by the day! This is good news to the whatsapp  developers community but other developers wouldn't mind sharing the glory that comes therein. Since the inception of whatsapp and with its continued success,with over 700 million users, other developers have been catapulting their programming skills to a whole new echelon in a bid to modify Whatsapp and add into it more appealing nitty-grittys that may render it finger-licking...i mean with all those modified emojis and a galore of customizations in whatsapp PLUS a message sent to you could sumptuously  look edible!.

















 I will give regards to the whatsapp plus developers since they really brought on board features that were quite blissful rendering the experience quite euphoric! Read Tips andTricks in Whatsapp Plus for a sneak-peak of what whatapp plus had put on the table and that which whatsapp couldn’t offer at the time.


WHY YOUR WHATSAPP PLUS COULD BE SHUT DOWN OR HAS ALREADY BEEN SHUT DOWN



Whatsapp has since denounced whatapp plus and branded it an unscrupulous and dubious application that they do not approve of. Below is a reply  to a FAQ that was posted to them.

Whatapp plus has now been branded an outcast, a spoilt kid that  must be apprehended if not grounded! .Whatsapp community is actually telling you to throw your whatsapp plus in the bin, and not in a recycle bin  this time because they will need you to let it be a bygone for good! Yes like those two colossal mammary glands you always suckled ferociously oblivious that milk could actually be bought in the dairies.
So whatsapp is telling you to play the loyal damsel and stick to their official whatspp which is found in the playstore or their official website.  Whatsapp is doing this to deliberately fasten the leash on unauthorized use of whatsapp source code and thereby validating the security measures provided in the whatsapp user rights. Encryption is consequently upheld and private information kept safe.
Speculatively this could also be a move to maximize on the future advertising revenue. This is after a successful end to end encryption on its services.


  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

  PUNISHMENT

 Now here comes the interesting part which some of you might consider comically absurd  ....you don't have a choice you either have to use the official whatsapp application or don’t use your phone! It’s that simple! I think some people render their phone useless without whatsapp. If you act the insubordinate kid who doesn’t want to use the official version those guys will actually trigger a time-bomb of some kind on your whatspp. You will be banned from using whatspp for the specified period! 

















So the next time you see the above interface on your whatsapp , the whip has actually been cracked on you and that will serve as a punishment for your misplaced loyalty!
Speculations will always be there but lets face it Whatsapp calls the shots here so bow down or your derriere will get smacked with a periodic ban from whatsapp.
Dont you worry guys even whatapp knows these girls ain't loyal! so let whatsapp inculcate that loyalty in them!

OBVIOUS INDICATIONS YOU HAVE BEEN BLOCKED ON WHATSAPP















Now let’s face it you can’t please everyone, but that thought seems a bitter drug for some to swallow. This is why some breed of homo sapien sapien will incessantly indulge and engage in instant messaging platforms that might render them insolent to the other party. In most cases the most affected party is usually the male gender.
 This virile species which still draws its zeal from the hypothesis that "it’s a patriarchal world" will play the harp and expect all the damsels and vixens to dance to the tune regardless of whether the music is pugnaciously irksome! Some fellows are too engrossed in pursuing others with the ultimate goal of being the instant socialite  . These people will continuously bombard you with messages to the point of inducing you with migraines. They will not let you breathe subsequently serving you with an ultimatum, its either you entertain them or breath in oxygen... for me? Fill in my cup with that oxygen regardless!
Everyone should learn that you cannot always have your way! If someone decides to ignore you accept the fact that you are impertinent and divert your relevance to something more useful, like online dating... those lonely love-deficient fellows might actually entertain you provided you are online! You actually deserve better move on.

That said I come to the topic of the day... If you think you possess the quality of being a cocky and impudent fellow on whatsapp, then its time you either check or have an affirmation that you have been blocked or have being told…. "Your judgment is now rendered impaired you can now start talking to yourself "... in a rather civilized manner!





 

 

 

 

 HOW TO KNOW YOU HAVE BEEN BLOCKED ON WHATSAPP

 
There are three indications that will actually raise the red flag that you have been blocked.

  1.The last seen date time stamp.

In this case if the last seen time stamp remains the same for an elongated period of time then it might be an indication you have been shut. However this might not be an absolute indication of you being blocked since the introduction of the "hide last seen" feature allows for this camouflage.


 

 

 

 2.The double check marks

 These two ticks that show that a message has been sent and received respectively are another emergency signal! If you send a message and only one check mark shows periodically.., then maybe you are close to affirming that you have been blocked.


 

 

 

 

 

3.Changes to the profile picture and the profile

 If the profile picture remains the same for weeks or even months which is not usually the case considering the other party changes the picture every time they take bath, then the probability that you’ve been blocked   just moved to a higher echelon   Consider checking their profile and if the status does not change then you probably are in for the dooms day.


4. All these revelations might however not be convincing till you try this final step! Use your friends phone to check if indeed the above profile has changed yet your phone gives you the same view.
That will definitely drill the last nail on your coffin and you will know beyond reasonable doubt you have been given a BOOT! Try not being pugnacious next time play the good kid and technology will be merciful to you!

And they still say to themselves "why do bad things happen to good people?" well it might be Karma!

HAVING ANDROID BATTERY ISSUES ?? Here's how to calibrate the battery on your android...














Battery problems is a menace that is actually widespread to most smartphone users and  thus this brands it a synonymous problem among android users!
Its an inevitable misgiving but as they say every cloud has a silver lining... the way out of this mishap can be circumnavigated and tamed! Yes! you can rectify the statistics of your battery by simply calibrating the battery  statistics.

 HERE'S A SIMPLE  WAY YOU CAN CALIBRATE YOUR BATTERY...

For those without root access;

 Install the application called "Current Widget:  Battery Monitor











  • This application serves the purpose of showing the the battery  charge in (milliamps) mAh .
  • In that case you should consider first checking your battery capacity b maybe checking the battery on  your phone or checking up the capacity of your of your phone online depending on your manufacturer.
  • Subsequently you can consider charging the phone to the  optimum time until the total amount of of milliampere  indicated on your battery is reached
  • When the required amount of battery is reached , restart your phone and the battery should now be charged to  100% so technically you shouldn't encounter any problems.

With root access the process is even more promising;

 

 

 

 

First method :

If you are lucky to have rooted your phone then you are simply a developer to be and here is where the fruits of your hard earned superuser rights come in .
If you need to root your phone then read CLICK HERE IF ROOTING YOUR NEED ROOT ACCESS   .










If you already have root access then download the application "Battery Calibration"

















  •  First connect your device to charge until the battery reaches 100%
  • Then check the "mV" or the "mAh" statistics and if it continues to rise then continue charging your phone till it gets to to a point the level is not rising anymore
  • At this level you should press the calibration button and this will change the battery statistics on your android  root files! When this is done the you can be sure you have indeed calibrated your battery!

Second method:

This method requires one to   boot the phone into recovery mode; this is essentially interacting with the phone on the kernel level and usually booting the phone into recovery requires one to know the specific buttons to press usually different with different manufactures .
Most manufactures have allowed users to boot into recovery by pressing the 'power button' and the the 'volume up button' concurrently when the phone is off!
On pressing this two buttons the phone will bring up such an interface

 








Navigate to the advance where you will find the option "wipe battery stats " option .
Select it to wipe the  battery statistics .










You can then drain your battery and then charge it while it is off and without interruption to 100%
Turn on your phone while its still plugged and go to your battery calibration application and grant it superuser permissions then click the calibrate button on the application .
If toast message "calibration succeeded" is shown then your battery has been successfully calibrated

STALKING IS THE NEW HOBBY AND WHATSAPP HAS EMBRACED IT WHOLEHEARTEDLY!


Whatsapp is at it again ... its making  your experience even more full of fervour and adventure  as you peruse your chats in a bid to dig if indeed a friend, a loved one or even a stranger who you met just yesterday and happened to give you their number is blatantly ignoring you!


I earlier wrote an article on Why whatsapp has become a stalker app maybe you might consider it a leeway to navigate your whatsapp

If you send a message the only thing that will make that a conversation is a reply.. if she or he doesn't reply, my guy , its time you came to terms with the fact that you have been thrown under the bus and that you are not interesting enough to behoove a reply! hush huh? come on... life continues find another contact and be good enough this time to elicit a reply!

Lets face it  are the times we have been victims of this act of prejudice and many of us have found it quite insolent.  Subconsciously and sometimes deliberately the  vicious circle now becomes viral and this is where a tooth for a tooth comes in. "If you ignored me i will also ignore you" thats the jaundice that will come into play and this will definitely come to an abrupt ending when both swear not to talk to each other ..!



The latest version of whatsapp will out-rightly trigger a time-bomb  on the chats you have and thus letting you know who is ignoring you inexcusably and in broad daylight!
This will be shown with two BLUE TICKS which will actually rubberstamp  the fact the message   has been read. This should detonate the irking moment and create  room for a complaint incase  your message is unreplied and the receiver is online! As devastating as it may be, this is simply the message.."I have ignored your message Openly and i have no reservations !"

In as much as this may sound interesting its annoying in equal measure and is a feature that  has already been unveiled!  These blue ticks are available in the latest version of whatsapp so if  you haven't seen this feature you are downgraded and pretty much need an upgrade to the latest version of whatsapp.     
Just when you thought   the "last seen" wasn't a validated exhibit that you have been ignored ...the devil himself came around to dance on your grave ...the "BLUE TICKS" confirm it! yes! As if thats not enough you will be left damaged by the affirmation that you used your bundles for no apparent reason!



























Well love it or hate it blue ticks are definitely a recipe to suicidal revelations which would even turn out to be scandalous! Its a cruel world huh?!












 Au revoir Relationships!
