Dum dum DUMM! Real name of Android O just leaked! Probably

Most of the time we heard that Orea will be the next Android’s name. Wrong! According to this leak, Android O will in fact be called Oatmeal Cookie. There are at least two bits of evidence for that. First is a phrase ”oc-dev” that repeats through the phone’s system code multiple times; second is a picture taken from the Google I/O presentation, where a phrase ”R.drawable.oatmeal_cookie” appears in one of the code lines.I must admit that this is some legitimate proof. Unless it was an elaborate prank that Android played on us all, it can be said with an ...

Contraband-delivering drones are still a nuisance

While ago I wrote about an old phenomenon that is prison contraband and a new way of committing it, namely by drones. Lets say there is a convict who wants some XXX material to read, a cellphone for calling his dearest grandmother and a few grams of cocaine to make his stay in prison a bit more tolerable. Using his contacts, he (or she – lets be fair) orders a delivery. The order is being collected by someone ”on the outside”. That outside person then buys a drone worth one hundred bucks (reasonable price, seeing how it can be used multiple times and how much said person ...

Nokia promises two years of updates for Nokia 3, 5 and 6

Nokia 3, 5 and 6 have been recently introduced to South African customers. During the release conference, though, another important thing has been announced. CEO of HMD Global, Arto Nummela, has officialy stated that those three Nokia devices will be receiving Android updates for at least next two years. Hooray! Even Nokia 3, which is ran by MediaTek chipset (and MediaTek does not support latest Android 7.1.1 Nougat OS) will be getting regular updates. Arto Nummela also reconfirmed that all three devices will be getting monthly security updates.So, all in all, thanks, Nokia. You have ...

Chinese phone case that changes colour with temperature

This Chinese phone case has a cool little effect to it – it changes its colour when affected by high temperature. Normally, the case is red, but when touched by something of around 35 Celcius degrees it temporarily changes to yellow. The above picture, well, pictures this very well – holding the phone in your hand leaves cool, yellow marks on the case, making it look like some kind of postmodernistic painting worth at least 500 thousand dollars. Hot summer is probably the best time to play around with it.For a Chinese gadget, case is pretty well made – it is said to be ...
