Whatsapp, WeChat and BBM for Android




BBM is now on Android!! OMG isn't that amazing? I am so excited I must go download it now!

But  wait.. who do I know who has a blackberry? They dont even have Touchscreens!?

Well, they kinda do I suppose... And a few buttons... Got to love those...

Can you Play any decent games on it or compare them to a Android or a iPhone? Not a chance.

Why do you even need BBM when everyone started using Whatsapp on their Blackberry's about two years ago, to be able to speak to the rest of the world with a iPhone or any other model.

Now that Blackberry is failing there is a huge online marketing campaign going on and everyone is excited for the release.

Just a few months ago WeChat was released and started marketing the fact that you can do "video calls" and speak over it, where in reality its nothing like the Skype you would expect.

Also another company trying to take the market away from Whatsapp!?
Do you really need two chat applications people to speak to you on when the whole world already uses Whatsapp?

Now the media is one thing, seeing it on google and other places.

But for the play store to be flooded with useless spam applications, Trending and in the millions of downloads, not being removed, because Blackberry cant just get their official app online.

Just think twice before getting excited about new chat services, you do not need more than one, and why use something that just makes other peoples lives more complicated.

Leave your phone at home, go outside.

How to Screencast on Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 (blackscreen fix)

Screencast
Screen Capture
Screen Recording


Ever wanted to record what you are doing on the screen of your tablet, without recording your hands on the screen?

Well here is how to do it :)

Firstly you will need to have rooted your tablet, here is a very good video on youtube on how to do this.
Video can be found here

Once you have rooted your tablet, the rest is very easy you will need one of the following applications.

Z Screen Recorder ***

Screencast Video Recorder *****

Screencast ***
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kerby.screencast

I personally use screencast video recorder on my tablet, with a shortcut on my homescreen.

Once you have gotten this far, you will see that it's still not working? All you get is a black screen 0kb file, maybe with audio, but you cannot record in app video?

:D :D There is a setting you neet to turn on in developer options :D :D

Once done, all you need to do is hit record and your video should be in your storage/sdcard0/screencast

Enjoy !
Here is the steps in Developer options :D

Since I got my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 I have allways wanted to be able to record my screen while I am busy playing a game.

I kept getting a 0 kb file and a black screen, and this happend with every screencast, screen record  and screen capture app.
ALL HAD THE EXACT SAME ISSUE.

After looking everywhere for a answer, I could not find one.

But I found the solution :)
