RIM Will Reward BB10 Devs with $100 Per Android App Ported


121226-bb



One of the reasons why the BlackBerry platform has waned in recent years is the lack of apps. While iOS and Android continue to grow their selection, BlackBerry has fallen behind. RIM doesn’t want a repeat performance of that with their upcoming BlackBerry 10 platform and that’s why they promised it would launch with at least 70,000 apps. So, how are they going to get there?

Research in Motion has announced a virtual event called Android Port-A-Thon. The idea here is to get developers to port their Android apps over to BlackBerry 10 and RIM is willing to pay you to do it. For every paid app that is successfully ported and approved, RIM will pay you a cool sum of $100. That’s per app, up to a maximum of 20 apps per vendor.

Furthermore, if you port at least five apps, you’ll be entered into a drawing to win a BlackBerry 10 Dev Alpha Device. They have 100 of those to give away. Every eligible app that you submit over that minimum of five will net you one extra entry in this draw. So, if you hit that maximum of 20 apps above, you’ll earn yourself $2,000 and 16 entries into the Dev Alpha Device draw.

The BlackBerry Developer Blog has more details, including how you can go about with the app porting process from Android. There are links to guides and tools and such. Android Port-A-Thon starts on January 11, 2013 at 12pm EST and runs for 36 hours. You must log in and port during that time to net the rewards.

MobiPixie Review: Photography goes Social

As smartphones get increasingly advanced, we have become more dependent on our mobile phone cameras for clicking pictures and capturing memorable moments.

Photo-sharing apps are great, not just at an individual level, but are great tools that small businesses can leverage as well. It’s a superb way for businesses to connect with their consumers and keep them updated about the latest products being launched. Businesses can use mobipixie to create to connect and engage with their customers.

406012_236910086429268_1690247721_n (1)

A Tool For Small Businesses

Small businesses can benefit by using photo-sharing apps to create personalized e-cards for their customers and build a better rapport with their top clients.

With Mobipixie they can also build their brand value by incorporating product pictures or behind the scenes pictures in their e-cards.

The app makes creating attractive e-cards and sharing them with customers cost-effective and easy.

How Does MobiPixie Work?

The mobile app, MobiPixie, takes this a step further, letting users share the photos they click with their social networks and even design custom greeting cards with these photos. With this app, users can now share with their social networks pictures they click almost instantaneously, letting their world know what all they see and experience.


What’s So Great About The App?

It’s a cloud-based solution that lets users manage their photos more conveniently through their phones, and share them with social groups that they can create. The best thing about these social groups is that users have complete control over which users in their networks get to view their photos.

It’s also a social network in itself, where users can find their friends or invite friends to join, and even search for photos uploaded by their friends.

The app also comes with an inbuilt Flash-based tool that lets users design their own greeting cards using the photos they click. Users can edit the images while creating the greeting cards and even add their own personalized messages to the cards.

These cards can be shared directly with other users as e-cards or printed out to be used as regular greeting cards. One of the best features about the app is the integration with Facebook so that users can directly post these greeting cards onto their friends’ walls.

The Downside

The only downside we could find in the app is the limitation in terms of enhancing the images clicked. In the age of Instagram where users can apply automatic filters and effects to bring out the best in their images, we only wish MobiPixie could also let users magically enhance their images in a similar manner. Hopefully, that’s something the developers’ team is working on and we can find auto-effects in the upcoming versions of this app.

MobiPixie is also available as a web application, and although originally designed as an Android app, has recently been made available to iPhone users as well. The development team has also announced that BlackBerry users will soon get this app as well.

BlackBerry 10 news page updated, provides glimpse at BB10 device

image.axd
The maker of BlackBerry Smartphone’s, Research in Motion (RIM), has today renewed the BlackBerry 10 information page. The Company has included couple of videos which focus on and explain what BlackBerry Hub is all about. Before the formal launch on January 30th, 2013, users can leave their Email Ids and RIM will send users all the latest news and more updates on the BlackBerry 10 OS.

The most interesting thing at the information page is that RIM has teased possibly the full-touch L-Series BlackBerry 10 Smartphone. While majority of the phone is in shadow, the rear facing camera and the flash of the Smartphone are visible.

Another interesting thing that we can notice is the back cover of the L-Series is display with texture. While many leaks have only showed us that the rear cover is simple, the image used on the page hints that the final design might give the L-Series BB10 Smartphone a splendid feel. The new tagline for BlackBerry 10 is “Re-designed. Re-engineered. Re-invented”.

Gundotra stated," Google+ also will be adding a new feature called "Communities," which makes the "hangouts" feature of the social network into permanent locations".

He further added, "Google+ has always been a place to crowd around common interests and meet new people. What's been missing, however, are more permanent homes for all the stuff you love: the wonderful, the weird, and yes, even the things that are way out there. With Google+ Communities there's now a gathering place for your passions".
MobiPixie is also mobile platform to send customized Post Cards, Greeting Cards and Mobile media, sharing and social networking platforms for mobile phone user.

What’s Different? Samsung Galaxy Note 2 vs. Galaxy Note


When the first Samsung Galaxy Note was released last year, I had visions of the old Dell Streak and I wondered why on Earth someone would want a smartphone with a display in excess of five inches. Well, it turns out that the original Note has been quite the resounding success and Samsung followed up with the Note II. But what’s different between the two? How much of an upgrade is it?

It starts with the screen. The original Note had a 5.3-inch 800×1280 (285ppi) Sumer AMOLED touchscreen, whereas the new Note II has a larger 5.5-inch 720×1280 display. It’s physically bigger but actually has fewer pixels (267ppi). This is because they’ve changed the aspect ratio, which changes the outward dimensions of the phone too. The new Note II is a little longer than the original (151.1mm vs 146.9mm), but it’s actually narrower (80.5mm vs 83mm) and thinner (9.4mm vs 9.7mm).

The overall design borrows a lot from the Galaxy S III too, so you lose the textured back of the Galaxy Note in favor of a slippery “river rock” like back on the Note II.

The new Note II is more powerful with a quad-core 1.6GHz processor compared to the 1.4GHz dual core in the original, though it retains the same 2GB of RAM. The Note II ships with Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean, whereas the original shipped with Android 2.3.5 Gingerbread, though a Jelly Bean upgrade is available. Naturally, they both use Samsung’s TouchWiz UI too.

The S Pen smart stylus is still here–as will be the case with the entire Note lineup–but it’s gained a few tricks, like Wacom-style “hovering” functionality. The Note II does have some additional features though, like a custom menu for one-handed operation of the dial pad, as well as some features borrowed from the S3, like Smart Stay. The battery is bigger (3100mAh vs 2500mAh) too, helping to improve battery life.

If you already have the original Samsung Galaxy Note, there isn’t as much of a motivation to upgrade to the Note II. However, if you’re looking to enter the phablet arena for the first time, I’d skip the OG Note and head straight to the Galaxy Note II. It’s a beast of a device.

iOS 6 fixes bug that let stolen iPhones receive iMessage texts



A problem with Apple's messaging app has finally be fixed, a source tells The Next Web.

An iMessage security hole discovered earlier this year has reportedly been patched in iOS 6.

Revealed in February, the bug allowed texts through iMessage to continue to appear even after the phone's account information had been wiped, the SIM card deactivated, or the password changed. This meant that a stolen iPhone could still receive text messages intended for the device's owner.

The Next Web reported that a source with knowledge of the matter said that the issue was resolved in iOS 6 after Apple pushed through several new checks for iMessage. One critical tweak requires users who change their Apple account ID to re-enter the password to use iMessage.

Further, people whose iPhones are lost or stolen are now protected against the old bug.

 Inserting the SIM card in a new phone with the same associated number or remotely wiping the phone automatically prevents the iPhone from receiving texts through iMessage, TNW added. Change your Apple ID password, and all of your iOS devices will now ask for the new password before enabling iMessage.

In February, an Apple spokeswoman said the flaw was an "extremely rare situation that occurred when a retail employee did not follow the correct service procedure and used their personal SIM to help a customer who did not have a working SIM."

But apparently the company felt it was enough of a flaw that it needed to be fixed permanently.

CampusA2Z Network to Sell, Purchase , exchange Books and many more



Campusa2z Network is a public website with the purpose of connecting textbook buyers and sellers so that they may purchase or sell their books in person or through the mail. The intended audience is individual college students, though anyone may use the site to buy and/or sell text books.

Campusa2z Network is unique among other book sales websites in that it provides a way for users to find other students within their own school, program of study, and/or geographic area. This allows users the option to complete transactions in person and avoid the hassles and fees involved in shipping and online payment methods. It allows sellers to leave a book available for sale indefinitely (as opposed to a fixed-length auction site). Sellers may also set a desired price and accept or reject offers.

Campusa2z Network is also unique in that it is free to use for both buyers and sellers. A fee is only charged if you use CampusXchange to collect payment on your behalf for the books or items on the site.
Campusa2z Network has two different types of users: Guests (anonymous visitors) and registered users. Registered users may be buyers and/or sellers at any given time. Guest can only browse.

Campusa2z Network’s primary aim is to enable person to person exchange whenever possible within an student community of a University Campus. Buyers and sellers are put in contact with each other through the forms provided on the website and they are prompted to follow a series of steps in order to buy or sell books. All transactions utilize usernames, so the e-mail addresses are concealed until the transaction has successfully completed.

When personal can also collect payment for any transaction on behalf of the users, if so required.
Why Use Used Books?

The rising cost of higher education means higher financial burden on everyone. Paying for a higher education these days is not easy. In addition to paying today’s steep tuition prices, students are required to invest in prescribed text books. At the end of the term, once you’re done with those books, they’re of no use to you anymore. They are virtually of no use to you. That was until now. Instead of making that money sit in your bookshelves, you could now sell your textbooks to your friends that will take the same course in the next term. It will get you cash that you can use to buy other text books for your new course. This is a win-win situation for everyone. We aim to reduce the cost to successfully complete your studies.

Depending on what you’re going to be majoring in, you may have to take a very broad assortment of classes ? This usually means a fairly high textbook bill! Whether you need a math textbook, chemistry textbook, or an economics textbook, you’ll be able to save a considerable amount of money by recycling them to other students in your departments instead. Used textbooks can save you a little cash, but you’ll save even more money by buying or selling the books that you need locally.

RapidPRotect-- A best family tracking mobile app

Rapidsoftsystems-- A software and Hardware development Company, USA

On paper, buying a used textbook may seem like a wise financial decision. Unfortunately, there are not many avenues to buy and sell it. So campusa2z.com is designed to do just that.
Looking for used textbooks? Look no further. campusa2z Network guarantees quality used textbooks at competitive prices, and we have over 5 Million used and new books.

A Review Of RoadSafe Driver: Technology for Safety on the Roads


According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 369,629 people died on America's roads between 2001 and 2009!  A lot of these accidents could have been avoided had either of the drivers been more careful.
Mobile app developers have taken note of the need for tools that can help drivers stay alert when on the road. The RoadSafe Driver App is the latest entrant in this space.
What’s The RoadSafe Driver App About?
This GPS enabled app is extremely useful for those who love to drive and spend long hours on the road. It can be downloaded on both Android and BlackBerry smartphones, and is aimed at promoting driver safety.
The app can be configured to encourage drivers to concentrate more on the road and drive in a legally permissible manner. Some of the key features of RoadSafe Driver include:
  • Phone lock to block texting capabilities when driving: This lets the driver focus on staying on the road and avoid getting distracted by thumbing SMS replies when behind the wheel.

  • Speed notification: This is an optional inbuilt feature within the app that lets users key in a number into the app where a notification can be sent by the phone in the event of the driver exceeding the pre-set speed limit.

  • Auto Reply: Installing this App on a phone running RoadSafe Driver will help send auto replies to text messages received on the phone during driving. This way, senders of any urgent SMSs will be notified about the driver’s unavailability during the driving period.

  • Driving Control: The Driving Control feature of the app will make the phone’s LED blink in Red when the driver exceeds the set upper speed limit, in addition to sending notification to the specified number registered within the app.  
Advantages of RoadSafe Driver app:
  • This app will help drivers regulate their own driving speed and ensure that they maintain discipline on the roads.

  • The app can even be used to monitor hired drivers and ensure that they follow the pre-set speed limit.

  • It’s an extremely helpful app for parents and schools, to enforce safe driving practices among kids as well as hired school bus and car drivers.
RoadSafe Driver can be installed and used on the following modes:
  1. Driver Mode: In this mode, the phone will automatically get locked when the speed exceeds the preset lower limit. If the upper speed limit is also set, in the Driver Mode, the phone will even generate a notification message about over-speeding.

  1. Non-Driver Mode: This mode can be set by users when traveling as passengers. In this mode, there is no automatic locking down of the phone’s features.
What’s missing in the app?
The Roadsafe Driver app could have had additional monitoring features like an inbuilt GPS tracker that parents could have used to monitor the movements of their teenage children. The GPS feature would have been helpful to even send out alerts in case of any emergency, giving the app a more comprehensive role of ensuring security on the roads.

Windows Phone 8 and Blackberry 10: Which One Are You Rooting For?

Image
Microsoft’s Windows Phone 8 is here, and is actually doing reasonably well during its first few days on the market. That said, there is some very real competition in the mobile market that would love to fight Microsoft for the “3rd place” position in the smartphone market, this includes Mozilla with Firefox OS and RIM with BB10.

Do either of these platforms have a chance against Microsoft? Honestly, Firefox OS is Mozilla’s first attempt at an OS, so it’s reach in the beginning will likely be limited. Firefox OS will appeal primarily to those looking for budget smartphones as their very first switch from a dumbphone.

In contrast, RIM is established and will go after both everyday consumers and those in the enterprise. In fact, Microsoft and RIM arguably have the same core target audience. So which platform is going to be the greater success? All the major carriers will likely support both platforms, but who get attract more consumer interest?

While it is probably too early to pass judgment, let’s talk about a few possible strengths from each platform:

Windows Phone 8

Microsoft is heavily promoting integration with other Microsoft products in Windows Phone 8. This includes heavy Office integration that appeals to the enterprise, as well as integration with Windows 8.
  •     Microsoft has “gamer” appeal with its Xbox Live integration.
  •     Microsoft’s Live Tile approach is different and fresh.
  •     Windows Phone 8 allows all sorts of languages to be used for app creation and porting (unlike WP7) and  therefore might do better when it comes to attracting big name apps.
  •     Microsoft has deep pockets for marketing and is already hitting hard with celebrity endorsements.

RIM Blackberry 10

    There are still Blackberry loyalists out there, though the number is dropping. Many of these folks might have bought new phones from competitors recently simply because Blackberry’s current offerings aren’t cutting it. If BB10 can provide good apps and a lot of the draw that made these users loyal originally— some of them might return to purchasing Blackberry devices again.
  •     The Blackberry keyboard is an important feature for some.
  •     Blackberry originally had a reputation for serious business and an elite vibe that it might be able to use as leverage for gaining new fans or winning back old ones.
  •     Blackberry will bring its Blackberry Flow approach into the picture, which it touts as a way to improve productivity and brags is a more seemless smartphone experience.

Right now, there isn’t much on BB10′s bullet point. This isn’t necessarily because BB10 doesn’t have some killers features– we just don’t know enough yet. As it stands, RIM needs to give us proof that Blackberry 10 can do things BETTER than alternatives like Windows Phone 8, iOS and Android.

As for Windows Phone? It already has a few advantages over iOS and Android that it can use to gain traction. This includes the perception that it is better for business (whether that’s true is probably debatable), and the integration with Office, Xbox and Windows 8.

It is unlikely that either BB10 or Windows Phone 8 can dethrone iOS and/or Android at this point, but if they play their cards right, one of these new operating systems could establish itself as a solid third place contender.

Which new platform are you most interested? Does Windows Phone 8 lure you in or are you more curious about what BB10 can bring to the table? Conversely, do you think that Firefox OS has what it takes to rise to a solid 3rd place position in the market?

Drive safe with SpeedApp

Image
Speed App is developed for GPS enabled Android Phones. Its main aim is to promote driver safety.
Backed by 24 X 7 support by a leading mid-size US company.
BE A SAFE DRIVER BECAUSE IT IS ABOUT YOUR LIFE!
AVOID TEXTING WHEN DRIVING
Distracted driving is single most important cause of auto accidents and the injuries in almost all countries.
CONTROL DRIVING DISTRACTION
It locks your phone and blocks your ability to text while driving so that you can focus on driving instead of attempting to text or answer phones when driving. It can save you from fines in states or countries where there is a ban on texting or talking on phone when driving.
SPEED NOTIFICATION AND DRIVING SPEED MONITORING (OPTIONAL)
It also has optional built in speeding notification to notify at a configured number if the driver exceeds the upper driving speed limit set in the phone. You can use that information to discipline yourself or use this to monitor a driver in commercial situations.
DIFFERENCE WITH "SPEED CONTROL AUTO REPLY APP"
If need an app that does all this, and also auto answers incoming text while driving, try our "Speed Control Auto Reply App for Android". That app is also available for Blackberry.
Note: Our "Speed App" and "Road Safe Driver" are the same app with different skins. So install the skin that you like. Both of them lack "auto answer" mode for the SMS.
BENEFITS OF DRIVING CONTROL APP ON YOUR PHONE:
1. "Speed App" is useful for users because it forces you to be a disciplined driver by disabling your ability to text while driving. No distraction means safe driving. It will lock your phone when driving after you exceed the minimum speed threshold.
2. Driving Control application is useful for parents, employers and individuals, those who want to support the life safety of a driver or have other obligations to ensure safe driving. Install this app on users' phones because you care for their safety and well being.
HOW IT WORKS:
The application works as described below:
1. After installation Road Safe Driver application will automatically start with phone reboot.
2. Road Safe Driver application works in two modes :
a. DRIVER MODE:
i. The application will lock the users phone after user exceeds the preset lower limit. A notification message will be generated if user exceeds the upper speed limit for a set duration.
b. PUBLIC TRANSPORT OR NON-DRIVER MODE:
i. The application will not send pre-configured speeding alert. The assumption here is that you are not a driver but a passenger in a vehicle. Your phone will work normally.
3. Driving Control application will lock the phone, when a user will exceed the specified lower speed limit.
4. Driving Control application will send a SMS to the parent/supervisor phone number configured in application setting, if a user exceeds the specified upper speed limit for a specified time duration. You can ignore it in the self use case.
5. Driving Control Application will blink LED in Red, when user will exceed the specified speed limit.
