Track Lost Android Phone and Tablet

By
1. Use the IMEI Number


Every Android phone carries a unique IMEI number. It will be printed at the back of your device. If you are unable to find the number, you have to launch your phone app and dial the number *#06#. This will give you the IMEI number of your phone. Store this number in a safe place so that it helps you in locating your phone when it is lost


2 Android Device Manager

Google has recently released a new locator feature for Android gadgets called Android Device Manager, which helps its users locate their lost or stolen phones and tablets. It functions in the same way as Lookout and Samsung’s “Find My Mobile”. Here’s how to use Android Device Manager.

Go to the Google Settings app, then select Android device manager. By default, the locator feature is activated but to activate remote data wipe, select the box next to “Allow remote factory reset”, then select “activate”.

To use this feature, open the site https://www.google.com/android/devicemanager and sign in to your Google account. You may be prompted for permission to allow Android Device Manager to use location data. Select the Accept tab to continue.
Now you will be provided with a map that shows the location of your device along with other details such as the name of the place, when it was last used and more. The location data doesn’t help you if your phone is misplaced somewhere in your home. Instead of making a call to your phone using other’s phone, you can call your phone directly from Android Device Manager. This will make your device to ring with high volume for 5 minutes, even if it’s in silent or vibrate mode.

QWERTY-keyboard when this idean came

By
QWERTY QWERTY   / ˈ k w Éœr t i /  is the most common modern-day  keyboard layout . The name comes from the first six  keys  appearing on the top left letter row of the keyboard and read from left to right: Q-W-E-R-T-Y. The QWERTY design is based on a layout created for the  Sholes and Glidden typewriter  and sold to  Remington  in 1873. It became popular with the success of the Remington No. 2 of 1878, and remains in use on electronic keyboards due to the  network effect  of a standard layout and a belief that  alternatives  fail to provide very significant advantages. [ 1 ]  The use and adoption of the QWERTY keyboard is often viewed as one of the most important case studies in  open standards  because of the widespread, collective adoption and use of the product. [ 2 ] History and purposes [ edit ] Keys are arranged on diagonal columns, to give space for the levers. Main article:  Sh...

what is LOREM ipsum and why do designers use it

By
What is Lorem Ipsum? Lorem Ipsum  is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum. Why do we use it? It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now...

Access Your Facebook Account with 3 Passwords

By
Did you know that you can login to your Facebook account using 3 different passwords? Seems interesting isn’t it? Yep! Unlike any other online account which has only one password to access, Facebook lets you log in using 3 different variants of your password. Only a few Facebook users are aware of this fact, but for many others, this might seem a bit surprising. Facebook accepts the following forms of your password: 1. Your Original Password Let me explain this to you with the following example. Assume that your default Facebook password that you created during the sign-up process is: 2. Password with the Case Toggled In the above password the letters ‘F’ and ‘P’ are in uppercase and the remaining are in the lowercase. If you TOGGLE the case where all the UPPERCASE characters are converted into the lowercase and vice versa, your default password “myFacebookPass” would become: Now if you log in using the above toggled password, your Facebook will accept it and welcomes yo...

how-to-tell-what-version-of-ubuntu-you-are-running

By
Telling what version of Ubuntu you are running is extremely easy. You would commonly use this command to figure out if you are running Edgy after you upgraded from Dapper. cat /etc/issue Ubuntu edgy (development branch) Note that the version numbers might change over time. I’m running the beta version so that’s what shows up when I run that command. Either way, it should be clear that you are running Edgy.
