For the Brazilian market, the update should still take a while, as commonly occurs with each generation of Android. With the obstacles placed by Samsung, it is possible that the update is performed only after the mid 2014 or even in 2015, according to the Tecmundo site.

Comparison Apps: Android, iOS and Windows Phone side by side ... - Tecmundo

hardware of smartphones are increasingly powerful and the number of devices in the options market continues to grow. However, not all users who are concerned with the maximum power of the cell. Many get a smartphone just to use basic applications for communication in everyday life.

For this audience, which is the most suitable mobile operating system? Android, iOS or Windows Phone? Placed side by side versions of some of the most popular apps for you to know the interfaces and draw your own conclusions. Is there much difference between them?

Facebook

(Image Source: Tecmundo)

In general there is not much difference between the versions of Facebook for the three operating systems. In the timeline, access to the messages and mentions menu appears at the top of the Android and Windows Phone, and at the bottom in iOS. On the same screen, the version for iOS displays a search icon that on Android and Windows Phone, are hidden in another menu.

chat, iOS has an option to disable it, something that is not present on other OSes. Moreover, the application is basically the same in any of the operating systems.

Update: Other than that reported, but it is possible to disable chat in Facebook for Android. Simply select the options menu, then “Application Settings” and uncheck the “Facebook Chat” option.

Twitter

(Image Source: Tecmundo)

For those who use Twitter also is not much difference between the versions of the three operating systems. On iOS, the home screen has a “Find Friends” icon option missing in versions of Android and Windows Phone. At the most, the same options can be found in any of the apps, not making much difference the choice of your operating system.

Instagram

(Image Source: Tecmundo)

Released first on iOS, Instagram has exactly the same versions for both Apple OS and for Android. The differences here appear in the version for Windows Phone. Clicking the button to take a photo, Instagram for Microsoft OS directs the user to the first gallery and not for the camera.

is still in Beta version, you can not also send videos, photos only. For anyone who considers the fundamental app, version for Windows Phone is unfortunately not the best choice.

FourSquare

FourSquare is another case in which there are many similarities between the versions of Android and iOS, since the apps are almost identical. By clicking “check-in” on Android, a dialog box listing the overlaps seating options. On iOS this information is displayed on a different screen.

You

Windows Phone, the timeline in which you track the activities of their friends, the photos are not displayed if any of them use this feature when you check-in. The upgrade system is also more intuitive in the other two OSes. On Android and iOS, just slide down the timeline for it to be updated. On Windows Phone, you must click a button and access the “Update” option in a menu.

WhatsApp

(Image Source: Tecmundo)

Also there are few differences between the versions of WhatsApp for Android and iOS. The options for attaching files are arranged more clearly in Android.Além addition, when you send the URL of a video into the app for Android, the thumbnail is displayed to who receives it, something that does not happen in iOS and Windows Phone.

Windows Phone, the style of the application follows strictly the visual identity proposed by Microsoft in its operating system, with backgrounds in solid colors and fonts provide high contrast. Already on Android and iOS, there is a much more visual than standard application of the system itself.

Netflix

(Image Source: Tecmundo)

Another popular app among smartphone users is the Netflix service. Again, between versions of Android and iOS are not many differences. The location of the menu is the same. When starting the app are listed movies “in progress” you were watching, plus the most popular and some choices based on your profile.

You

Windows Phone display the form is different, with posters in place of video thumbnails. The ordering is the same with movies being watched shown by first followed by most popular. This is another typical case where the OS does not matter much, because the operation of the service will be the same in any of the services.

…..

How could you give, in the case of the most common services used in smartphones virtually no difference between them. If you fit this profile, it is likely that both Android, iOS or Windows Phone as they are able to meet their needs.

However, before defining what will be the operating system of your next unit, we recommend you visit the app stores and browse the apps and games you use most. At such times, the number of applications is what matters least. Ideally, the store has those services that will meet their needs in everyday life.

Android leads the way in Europe with almost 70% of the market - TeK.sapo

At the end of last quarter, Android marked presence in 68.6% of mobile devices in the main European markets – UK, Germany, France, Italy and Spain – and iOS at 18.5 %, according to Kantar Worldpanel data.

The representativeness of Windows Phone continues to grow, but the market share of Microsoft’s operating system in Europe remained almost unchanged in the last three months, standing at 10 3%.

The advancement of Android not only felt in Europe, extending to other continents and, specifically, the 12 largest markets in the world. Despite losing to the operating system from Google, iOS continues to show a strong presence in key markets such as the United States (43.9%), UK (29.9%) and China (19%).

Windows Phone has grown to two digits in Europe, but unfortunately for Nokia to increase the European market for smartphones in the last quarter of 2013 was only 3%.

Despite the leadership of Android, also not all good news for Samsung increasingly pressured by competition. The report also indicates that the representativeness of the South Korean manufacturer fell 2.2 percentage points in Europe to 40.3%, while China’s share has remained unchanged in 23.7%.

?The screenshots are not exactly features that save lives, but there are occasions where they can be useful to a user. This is a feature that is available on all smartphones equipped with Android versions 4.0 and higher than that may be included in some devices with earlier versions.

The process, though simple, may vary according to the devices. The alternatives you have at your disposal to make screenshots:

If your version of Android does not come with native support for screenshots have two options at your disposal: either do root to the device in order to install an application that allows you to make screenshots (a process that is different for each smartphone), or install the Android SDK on your computer and configure your smartphone (connected to PC) to be able to make screenshots.

Some smartphones from Samsung, for example, support this feature – but not all. In this case it is recommended to do an online search for your specific model to see if it supports this feature and find out which commands that activate the screen capture (note: try one of the three I’ve listed above first.)

This will need to install it on both your smartphone like on your computer in order to activate this feature.

The APK is saved locally% Windir% CrainingApkConfig AV-cdk.apk.

Once installed, the malware tries to place the apk on any Android device that connects to the computer. When it detects a target, the virus repeats the installation until the infection is confirmed, which requires that the USB debugging mode is enabled on the device.

APK installed is a variation of Android.Fakebank.B and appears as an application from App Store, but your goal is to find Korean banks online applications and prompts users to erase and install in its place malicious versions. Moreover, the Fakebank intercepts SMS messages, sending a copy to a website.

To avoid infection, Symantec recommends that users turn off USB mode debugging Android, avoid connecting it to untrusted computers and install reliable security software.

Analysis: Android Adapter for NewLink TV101 TV [Video] - Tecmundo

streaming applications helped popularize Smart TVs, but not everyone has adopted the new models. Due to the high prices, many people decided to choose alternative gadgets able to bring these features to their televisions.

Video games, Blu-ray and even Chromecast are viable options adopted by many consumers. In this competitive market, NewLink decided to offer a different option that aims to bring the whole system with their Android apps to the TV.

NewLink TV101 is an Android TV adapter that can be easily plugged into an HDMI port (you must use a USB or jack to connect the device) and quickly turn an ordinary TV into a smart device.

It is compact, provides a reasonable hardware has capabilities to connect to WiFi networks and comes with USB and card reader controller. Basically, just plug in a mouse and enjoy the best of Android on the big screen. The idea is good, but will this gadget can supply quality features of a Smart TV?

(Image Source: Tecmundo / Baixaki)” alt = “Analysis com.br/2014/1/materias/14636774520175127-t640.jpg

Approved

Laptop and uncomplicated

There is no denying that the idea of ??this device is more than interesting, after all, is like having an Android can run on almost any TV that has an HDMI port. NewLink The TV101 is portable and very practical.

Just plug it into the HDMI, connect the cable to the USB (or jack) and start using. No need to press any button, and soon you will be on the desktop of Android. This adapter charges the system in just a few seconds.

(Image Source: Press Release / NewLink)” alt = “Analysis com.br/2014/1/materias/1463677452018104-t640.jpg

As there is a remote control or a touch screen (like there is on other Android devices), you need a mouse or a keyboard to navigate. You can use peripherals wired or wireless. In our tests, both types worked.

very recent Android

When we connect the product, we can check that the manufacturer has included a very recent version of Android: Jelly Bean 4.2 system. The main software is lightweight and, as expected, shows compatibility with almost all apps from Google Play.

As we are dealing with a device without physical buttons, the manufacturer put icons in the Taskbar to adjust the volume level, switch between apps, and even to turn off the product. There is a special button that minimizes the bar and ensures the use of the system in full screen mode.

The presence of the card reader allows you to connect the card to your mobile photos and play external videos on your TV screen. If you have a USB OTG (On The Go) adapter you can add one more USB port and expand connectivity.

Enjoying

many apps

NewLink TV101 brings the standard Android apps, but no Chrome or other most requested software. Of course you can install all the apps you want, after all this is a system that Android has a large collection of software.

The great advantage of this device on Blu-ray or Smart TVs is compatibility with many programs that do not exist in more basic platforms. For our tests, we installed the Netflix, Telecine Play, YouTube, Crackle and programs for social networks.

(Image Source: Tecmundo / Baixaki)” alt = “Analysis com.br/2014/1/materias/5617925082117324-t640.jpg

In our tests, the unit ran videos of these services and offered high image quality thanks to 1080p output. The browsing interface of apps is simple, being necessary to perform the same gestures you would on a touchscreen.

Fail

frustrating experience

Android is not a heavy system, but surely it is not so light as to a Smart TV interface. Any tablet or smartphone that works in 1080p resolution just need a good processor and a graphics chip also able to give an account of visual processing.

Only

to check the specifications of the product, we had an idea that the modest hardware configuration TV101 could not offer an incredible experience. It turns out that in practice, the results were worse than expected.

browsing interface is very slow. Strolling on the screens of desktop, open settings and switch between open apps is something that requires patience. Explore the catalog of Netflix or surf the web also is not something pleasant.

(Image Source: Tecmundo / Baixaki)” alt = “Analysis com.br/2014/1/materias/561792508211751-t640.jpg

We notice that there are differences when we change the mouse (models with ball and BlueTrack technology work better than conventional optical devices), but despite the little arrow work fine, the general sluggishness continues.

Part of the problem is due to the single core processor, but one must consider that this gadget can not keep many apps open as it has only 512 MB of RAM. After four or five open software, it’s likely that the device freezes during any streaming video or other situations.

not had the courage to test apps benchmark, because such a gadget can not be compared with other tablets or smartphones. It is worth noting that, due to the limitations of interaction, this adapter does not fit with Android running games or apps that require many commands on the screen.

Many

limitations

Internal storage is only 4GB. This is enough to store some apps, but says not want to put too many pictures or videos. If the idea is to watch digital movies, then it is better to install a micro SD card, as sometimes a few clips in high definition now go beyond the limit of internal storage.

TV101 NewLink adapter does not have many connections, which can be a problem if we consider that the product does not have an interaction device and requires external peripherals. With a single USB, you must choose whether to use the mouse or keyboard. The OTG connection to break a twig, but it is difficult to find the adapter for this type of connection.

(Image Source: Tecmundo / Baixaki)” alt = “Analysis com.br/2014/1/materias/5617925082117342-t640.jpg

You can connect a USB hub, but in our tests, the device malfunctioned after a few minutes of use, and the mouse disappears from the screen and keyboard and mouse both stopped responding to commands.

Besides these questions, we must emphasize that the NewLink TV101 does not have the ability to connect via HDMI cable. If your TV has video inputs on the back and it is installed close to the wall, you will not have to use the gadget. We try to use an MHL cable to send the video signal to the TV, but the product is not compatible.

WiFi Adapter faintly

Despite many problems, what bothered us most were network problems. We tested the NewLink TV101 with different routers, networks and Internet connections. In all situations we prepare, we note that the unit can not get a good signal reception, which results in a poor experience for streaming.

Even though only 4 or 5 feet away from the router, the device has a slow connection. After some tests, even the WiFi stopped working, being unable to download or transmit data.

(Image Source: Tecmundo / Baixaki)” alt = “Analysis com.br/2014/1/materias/5617925082117525-t640.jpg

Because of these problems, the adapter could not load very long videos, and it has not been possible to watch a half hour movie on Netflix. In Crackle often the adapter simply refused to store the video buffer and showed only a black screen. A sad story for such a promising gadget.

Worth

If only NewLink TV101 could play videos without gagging until we stress the issue of poor performance and difficulty of use. However, the product has let us in almost every way, it is useful just to run apps offline and since few software are used.

Yes, this unit can run and run some Android apps, but it fails in almost every task. Clearly, besides the bit capable hardware, the WiFi adapter low performance certainly is the problem worse, since you can not take advantage of the main functionality of the gadget.

(Image Source: Tecmundo / Baixaki)” alt = “Analysis com.br/2014/1/materias/5617925082117541-t640.jpg

Even

costing only 250 real, we do not recommend buying this Android TV adapter, because it fails to provide the simplest experience of a Smart TV. If you want to run Netflix and YouTube, surely it is more worthwhile to pay 200 dollars on a Blu-ray player with apps.

Purchase a phone with MHL, opt for a Chromecast buy an Apple TV or even invest your money in a video game are much more sensible ideas, which will certainly offer some apps that work without major difficulties. Who knows if the NewLink release a version with a better quality hardware, we have a good adapter on the Brazilian market.

This product was given for review by NewLink.

(Image Source: Reproduction / Geeky -Gadgets)

Rumors indicate that Samsung is planning to bring Android 4.4 (KitKat) for Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and the Galaxy S4 in January this year, without incurring aside their older products.

The update should not bring much news regarding use interface, and there is the statement that no software feature will be added to old devices. As always, the update should be released in stages, which, for the Brazilians, means the ability to achieve it only through official channels after the half-year or even close to 2015, taking into account the latest way Samsung comes as treating their older devices.

Upcoming versions of Android can prevent programs that require root work. According to an expert programmer, a self titled Chainfire, Android should receive changes to their file systems that block root access in many applications.

According to him, the new code commits to “master tree” of the Android Open Source Project (AOSP) and prevents the superuser execute files located in / data. It is likely that this can be seen already in the next version of the OS.

And what does that mean? That many developers will need to update their applications to circumvent the issue. While there is no definitive solution, Chainfire says it is important that the community is aware of the problem so that they can, together, looking for a way to overcome it.
