Virus Geinimi

Android was ever claimed to be the operating system that is free from virus.Kini can not say anything when Look out, a developer of security applications has been found that this type of Trojan virus types can infect the usual Android handset users through the process of data transfer when downloading application. Trojan virus is called Geinimi, a unique spread only through the Android-based devices. Once the virus infects users can handshet causes the operating system can not be controlled directly because it has been infected with this virus. Trojans of this type first appeared in China and then spread it so as pop up in the guise of the application form the basis of third-party Android The Android Market. Making it very easy for users to download infected from this Trojan virus.

Viruses can be disguised Geinimi in the application form posted on the game that many online stores in China-based applications. Examples Monkey Jump 2, Sex Positions, President vs. Aliens, City Defense and many more applications that are based in China. Rumors that there has been mention that this virus will corrupt the user's personal data and will automatically open a new application which is actually a Trojan Virus Geinimi. This virus in this application form will then begin collecting personal data data handset. Starting from the coordinates logaksi, data IMEI (handset identification), and the simcard (IMSI). After that, the virus will remotely operating system and internet connection to connect to the site domain site with this kind; www.widifu.com, www.udaore.com, www.frijd.com, www.islpast.com, and www.piajesj. com. If all the above plan is successful then it will automatically transmit the information will Geinimi handset above information (which has been grabbing before) to the server. Once the connection is connected, then the virus in the application form will be a landing users to download and install applications other vague or better. And of course this happens without you realizing it by the user if you have android actually controlled from afar by this virus.

It was awful to see the effect, which obviously this virus is very harmful to users and can certainly drain money from the android who has diterinfeksi penguna by this virus. There are a few tips for you to android users are not infected by this virus. The first tips that you can be selective in the applications contained in the Android Market. Should download the official application only. And if you really want a third-party applications you can see the rating that you can consider to download or not. Be smart user with Android smartphone. May be useful.

Kyobo eReader Android Gadget With Mirasol Technology

Technological developments in the gadget world was getting faster. Here is a gadget that uses the eReader named Kyobo Mirasol display technology. Check out the full review below.

Kyobo eReader books are digital gadgets that were presented Kyobo Book Center bookstore in South Korea. These devices use the base operating system Android 2.3 (Gingerbread) with a special appearance.

Mirasol display technology, which is inspired by butterfly wings, already used in consumer products. Kyobo eReader who became the first device with a screen.

Devices sold in the range of 310 dollars is targeted at users in the education community, as a student. E-paper screen in color is believed to be comfortable to read a text book, because just by reading the paper.

Screen used in the eReader Kyobo measuring 5.7 inches with a resolution of 1024768. He also uses LED lights to light the dark. Although the color, the brightness of the resulting color mirasol display at Kyobo would not be comparable screen iPad or other Android tablet.

Device with a 1GHz Snapdragon processor will be supported 9000's collection of titles from Kyobo. In addition there are educational video content, integration into social networking and entertainment content. Perhaps the most compelling of these devices are battery-efficient. Thanks to e-paper display that can be used to Kyobo said more than three weeks.

Background Understanding Android Data (Data supporting / background data)

An Android app said to be running in the background when the application is not displayed on the screen but the actual application is still running. For example, you press the HOME key result but the application does not shut down (exit), or if you open an Android application and then switch to another application without shutting down the previous application.

This leads to applications that use Internet connection, such as internet browser application can run in the background and still be connected to the internet. When the Android application to access the Internet while running in the background, it is said that application is to connect "background data"

When setting Background Data turned on (ON), means that all applications "were allowed" to send and receive data while the application is running in the background. Background When the data is turned off (OFF), then the data traffic will be automatically suspended if the application is running in the background. Suppose you're downloading (download) songs from the internet using a browser, so if you press the Home button to return to the main screen, or switch to another application, it will cause the browser application running in the background and the background features of the data when turned off, then download the song had also stopped.

Understanding Auto Sync Android (automatic synchronization)

Auto Sync is a feature that set the Android application can synchronize with Google's servers and the server applications that are used. When Auto Sync is on, means that the application "allowed" to perform data synchronization autologin. When the auto sync turned off, you will not receive information in real time, for example will not receive push email, notifications from social networking, syncing phonebook / calendar automatically, etc..

If you feel this feature is not very important or you choose to synchronize manually, then here's how to enable or disable synchronization android phone:

Press the HOME button and then press the MENU
Select "Settings" (Settings)
Select the "Accounts & Sync" (Account & Sync)

To enable synchronization as a whole, you must provide a check in the section "Background data" (Background Data / supporting data) and "Auto Sync" (Auto Sync). If the synchronization feature does not want to run automatically, then the second parameter is not checked.

Uncover More In Stock versus Custom ROM

Android open-source systems are free to make it more tampered with by anyone. And karea also, custom Android ROMs available on the internet for customizing many Android devices. For those of you who still lay with the things about Android ROM, in the post previous articles I've revealed the sense ROM, or just want to have Android and mengoprek and customization even further, would have tried googling and found the term stock ROM and / or custom ROM and type ROM.

And before you start mengoprek Android ROM, you should first know the advantages and disadvantages of stock and custom ROM ROM ROM to decide which one is best for the character of the use of your smartphone

Advantages and disadvantages Stock ROMStock Android ROM is the result of much research and testing efforts by the developers of the OS vendors, handset vendors and mobile operators. Therefore, it brings several advantages, including:

Fairly stable since the first release.
Almost all the bugs have been resolved at this stage of beta testing before release.
Bring the official content of OS developers.
Update easily available and even installed automatically.

In addition to excess, stock ROM is also not free of shortcomings:

Updates that occur less frequently, because the development is generally done by the company will follow a scheduled release cycle.
Feedback provided by users to the developers, which in this case is a corporation, if there is a problem in Android ROM, usually going through a long process and takes time, even do not be surprised if your feedback is not ignored by them.
Similarly, to get help for problems that users experience, the length and time-consuming process of going back there.
If the mobile phone vendors and developers of the OS are two different companies, this is what happened to Android, the release of OS updates by the developer will pass through the stages of editing by phone vendor or cellular operator before the update is really up to the user. Examples you can find the Android device Samsung could have got the first update than the HTC Android device.
And this is the most annoying thing for us Android users in Indonesia, frequent updates to first release in the United States and let the others wait, especially in Indonesia we often have to wait for a very long time to get the official update Asia region.
And worst of all, when the mobile phone vendor decided to not release Android ROM update for the old, they only provide for their latest devices only, so users will be stuck on the old OS or having to upgrade an older version of the device.
Android OS developers, vendors or mobile phone operators in general will add restrictions ranging from the lock can only use only one operator, so the lock can only be used on a particular region.

Advantages and disadvantages Custom ROMCustom Android ROMs typically created by independent developers to correct deficiencies in the stock ROM. The advantages of custom ROM is as follows

Many options to customize the user desires. There are thousands of custom Android ROMs out there, and for a wide range of devices. Each offers different features that you will not find on a stock ROM.
This often happens on the Android ROM, so update the release of the OS developer, the developer will be working independently for the update can be used in a variety of devices. And therefore the custom ROM will be faster than the stock ROM update release which must first pass through stages of edit phone vendors and / or mobile operator.
Feedback to the developers of custom ROM as easy as sending a message on an online community forum and produce a more efficient way in dealing with reports of the bug.
Similarly, to get help if users experience problems. Questions or complaints submitted to a user's online community forum will immediately get a response from developers and from other users.
Existing restrictions on the stock ROM disappeared.
Overclocking performance optimization to be found in many custom ROM, so that your device can be faster than when using the stock ROM.
Undervolting options can be found in some custom ROM, this option can increase battery life Android.
Generally, custom ROM already includes rooting, and therefore the old or the Android device that has a small internal memory capacity can utilize external SDcard place to install the application.

So, with the advantages possessed by a custom ROM, there is no reason to keep using the stock ROM is not it? Not necessarily, like all things in the world, custom ROM also has a shortage of them:

Unlike the stock ROM that has gone through some research and tests, many custom ROM that has lots of bugs when the first release, and install a custom ROM with this condition may result in your Android device lost files or corrupted critical files to the death total.
Some custom ROMs that in some cases taken from other Android devices ROM, can lead to a feature not functioning properly. Example: I've tried custom Gingerbread ROM, which is taken from the European version of Android, and find a compass, maps and GPS can not work properly.
Installing a custom ROM can be fairly easy, many tutorials are available on the internet. But if there was a slight error in the installation process, can lead to your Android device totally dead.

Making a choiceChoose between stock and custom ROM ROM depending on your needs. If the stock ROM you are able to do all the things you need and do not feel slow, you do not have to bother with custom ROM through the installation process.

However, if you wish your Android device has the ability to have more as I explain in excess custom ROM, and not objected to the lack of which has, to install the custom ROM will give satisfaction to you. Choose Wisely!

Choosing the right Custom ROMIf you decide to try a custom ROM, the next problem is to choose the best one of the thousands of custom ROMs available. The easiest solution that I offer for this using a custom ROM is the most popular, widely used and safe. Two custom ROM names that met these criteria, is CyanogenMOD and MIUI. Both of these custom ROM would be a good start for you to start it and customization oprek your Android device.

Be careful using Android Task Killer

Android task killer is one of the most downloaded apps (downloaded) by users of the Android mobile phone. This application has a function to shut down other applications either currently active application or applications running in the background.

It is said that by shutting down applications or games using the Android Task Killer Android, Android phone you'll work faster and more efficient batteries. However, if it is true in fact like that? To find out about it, it helps you know how the first Android system. But if you do not have much time to directly to the summary at the bottom

Work systems and misguided Regarding Android Task KillerIf you install Android task killer, as a notable example Advance Task Killer, the application will see a list of currently active applications and applications running in the background (applications are still running but was / is not being used). These applications are also listed on the rest of the RAM memory (available memory) are not used on your phone.

What is a RAM (Android): Random Access Memory is temporary memory used by the CPU (Central Processing Unit) to access information or data necessary to run a "process". The larger the RAM, then the outline would speed up system performance because the CPU can access more information at the same time.

If you disable an application, it will increase available memory. You can turn off the applications one at a time or all at once. You can set it to shut down the application automatically at specified time intervals or when the screen is turned off.

Any application that runs Android will "eat" the RAM memory of your phone. More and more applications are activated, the less free memory (available memory) remaining. It is often misunderstood by the Android mobile phone users. Most of the users think of the less active applications and a growing number of remaining available memory, the faster the performance of mobile phones and batteries will also be more economical. This is not true. On the Android system, each application is not in active use will be stored in the system "memory" phone. Applications are stored in memory or running in the background will be faster for the switch back at any time if necessary. By turning off background applications running on it will make mobile phones more energy released when the application is to be re-enabled, which in turn would make the battery to be extravagant.

During the application is not active or not using the CPU and only use your Android Mobile RAM memory, then the application will not make your phone more extravagant. You also do not have to worry about lack of RAM memory at any time if you want to enable, for example gaming HD (high definition) that require large RAM, because the Android system will automatically shut down the applications that run in the background is not necessary in order to give available memory (RAM) more. That means you do not have to worry about any loss in performance if many mobile phone applications running in the background.

Android working system that automatically shuts down the application when necessary to make some (even many) application developers who create applications that android has no exit button, or at least a bit inconvenient for the exit button on the access.

Note: This condition applies to operating system Android. For other operating systems, in general it will not automatically shut down the application when more RAM is needed, so as to improve performance, users should turn off unused applications.

Risks Using the Task Killer AndroidThe use of task killer at risk. If you do not accidentally turn off the application required by the Android system, the phone will not operate properly. For example, an application accidentally turn off push email and mobile phones running Android you look like normal, but without realizing it you will not receive new mail notifications.

However, this is actually already in anticipation by the makers of Advance Task Killer (ATK) to make arrangements ignore list (list of bother) which you can specify which applications should not be turned off. In addition ATK can help you to choose which application should be included in the ignore list automatically.

Should still Task Killer?I personally still install ATK on the Android phone I have. This is not to shut down applications that are running in the background, but to make it easy to turn off my application running with improper (error). In terms of performance and battery performance, I did not find any difference at first I was actively using ATK with the present moment I rarely use the ATK.

In some cases, the application task manager / task killer is still needed and felt able to accelerate the performance of Android devices. For example, if the RAM memory is owned by the Android mobile phone is too small, while applications that are installed too much. This is because when the application is not turned off by the Task Killer, Android system will be too "busy" shut down other applications running in the background every time you want to enable other applications.

If concluded, install and use the Android Task Killer if:

There are no applications are running properly (application hangs, error, etc.)
If the RAM is owned Android mobile phone or tablet is too small, while too many applications installed. You can shut down some applications using the Task Killer is decreased when the perceived performance indicated a slow transfer between the menu, the screen is not responsive, etc.. However, if the operation of the Android mobile phone is still in normal level, then you should not have to use task killer.

Summary and QuestionsWhat is Android Task Killer?Answer: It is an Android application to shut down other applications either manually or automatically

Is the use of Task Killer Android will accelerate the performance and save battery life Android phone I have?Answer: Yes, yes, may not. (Usually not)Do you need large RAM on Android phone?Answer: Depending on the needs. For example, if an application requires say 300 MB of RAM to run properly, and from the hardware side of the Android phones just pick the RAM of 256 MB, then despite all the applications running in the background was turned off by the Android system, but still it will happen conditions under which the application can not run / walk slow due to lack of RAM.

ConclusionSince this is an old topic of considerable debate in the heat and Android forums give each other much better opinion of their experience and by using the technical data they have. Some say that Android Task Killer is necessary, others say the opposite. I do not recommend and does not forbid you to use Android task killer. If you feel comfortable and feel the benefits of using Task Killer Android, then it is okay to do.

Task killer is needed to turn off applications that run improperly, for example in the case of the kadang2 I experienced, when the application is the Opera browser will not connect to the internet, I turn to first use a task killer, then I switch back to Opera browser and a connection back to normal.

Suggest we do not set the task to automatically shut down the killer app on your Android phone, because there is the possibility of making the Android operating system becomes unstable. However, if you believe that the application will automatically shut off will not bring any impact on your HP, then you can turn off the application.
