How Fast Does Your Smartphone Boot?

Samsung Galaxy S2 GSM - 21 seconds Motorola Photon 4G - nearly a minute Blackberry Bold 9650 - 11 minutes -
Instagram is an app for taking pictures, adding filters to make them look cool (see the pic Hetal ji posted), and then for sharing them with sites like Twitter and Facebook. And second, it's a simple social network of other people's photos. You can "like" or comment on the photos, and see what's new. It's easy and doesn't take much time or effort to master. This is one of the reasons it has become so popular so quickly

SIM Cards bought with Duplicate IDs, Sold without papers
Karthik R replied to Honest's topic in Indian Telecom / General News
True! BSNL should be given a clean chit in this regard. They don't care about numbers. New operators are more guilty, involved in this matter as they widely indulge in such practices to ramp up sufficient numbers to present a rosy picture of state of affairs. Incumbent operators who have amassed subscribers over time, are not under much pressure to resort to these measures. -
Flyte - Digital Music Store Gets Launched By Flipcart In India
Karthik R replied to sougatadc's topic in The Lounge
Songs from new unreleased movies are priced little high @ Rs.15. The habit of actually paying money and purchasing songs are yet to catch up in India. Hope Flyte changes that. -
Guys check the calendar for today's date (if you have been living under a stone) and keep your defenses up.

I used to own one. To answer your question, how do you intend to use the phone? The features are very basic, as you may have found out by now. It is a feature phone running Samsung's proprietary OS which lacks full outside app support. Mediocre 2MP camera. Sound quality and signal reception is good. You can't take full advantage of its EVDO Rev.0 network support due to phone's hardware limitations (small screen, low internal memory, no multi tasking). IMO, not worth the buck.

Suggestion : It will be more helpful and convenient if the opening post also includes details like best price and distinct features

^ ^ ^ This is a fresh case, I'm yet to receive back my phone. I'll ask them to pinpoint what exactly the "hardware defect" is.

I faced precisely the same signal reception issue described by Ankush on my new Nokia smartphone. It was finally narrowed down to a fault in the hardware.

Aakash - The Cheapset Andriod Tab Only For Students
Karthik R replied to ammar.cma's topic in General Technical Discussion
The world's cheapest tablet project has been allocated about Rs 765 crore in Budget 2012-13, which is likely to trigger the second phase of the project expected to begin in April, even as the first phase is stuck in a deadlock. The allocation for Aakash has been made under the National Mission for Education through ICT of Ministry of Human Resource and Development. ET -
I am glad to learn that lesson, from now on I'll keep away from these 'Made in India' nokia phones, but I wish I didn't have to learn it the hard way

^ ^ ^ The issue was tracked down to a fault in the Nokia E6 I was using :duh: never suspected this as the phone was bought just last month. On inserting the Airtel SIM in my S2 / Photon it shows the full signal strength.

Opting for postpaid connection can solve these unwarranted deduction issues.

Free Apps Drains Battery & Security Threat
Karthik R replied to csmart's topic in General Technical Discussion
Has anyone else noticed that the study was conducted by Microsoft!! See the irony! MS, who is losing sleep over Android / Apple domination of smartphone market, would have an evident reason to be slanted and biased, with a possible touch of over exaggeration. -
Does Quad-Core Really Makes a Difference in Mobile Computing?
Karthik R replied to kundalus's topic in General Technical Discussion
I don't recall anyone picking up a dual-core phone and complaining about how sluggish it is! Quad-core is just an overkill. Android OS and apps are not ready to take advantage of four cores and majority of the apps you regularly use works absolutely fine on a 1Ghz single core CPU. What’s the point of paying for technology that you can’t take advantage of? Bottom line, while a quad-core CPU in your smartphone would give you bragging rights, it wouldn’t offer much more. -
