How to get the SSL Security patched up without Updating to iOS 7.0.6
Apple recently rolled out the update which bought all the devices running iOS 7 to iOS 7.0.6. This was a small update, but perhaps one of the most important ones that Apple has rolled out. No, there were no funky features that were added by it, but instead it patched up a massive gaping hole in the security of the iOS system. It patched up the issue with the SSL that could cause
Karbonn to bring Dual Boot Windows Windows in the Market
In a sea of budget Android device manufacturers, it is a challenge to stand out. While most of the players are playing the game of price being the point of distinction, very few are actually ready to bet on their innovation to be the differentiator in this game. For Karbonn mobile though, it is very much a case of innovation stands out going forward though. After Microsoft had reduced the licensing prices for both it’s Windows 8 and Windows Phone 8 devices, it was done keeping in mind that new OEM and partners would jump on board and Karbonn definitely is on board for the latter.
How to Close all the Tabs in Safari on iOS 7 at once
We are all in a bad habit of having at least 15 tabs open when we work. At least, if you are internet junkie like we are, then there is no greater sight in the world than seeing all the tabs there serving virtually unlimited information. Although it is easy to close all these tabs on a system, by simply quitting the browser program. However, on smartphones, things are not as simple as that,

There have been several leaks about the device, but it has never been really clear what the device will be called. After
How to add Widgets to the Lockscreen on Nexus 5
Jellybean update for Android bought a pretty cool feature which allowed you to add widgets to your lockscreen of the device. This feature obviously carried on when Android 4.4 KitKat update was released but for some reason, you cannot add widgets to the nexus 5 right out of the box. We have no idea what LG or Google was thinking when they decided to disable the feature to start off with on their flagship device. However, it is very easy to enable, just follow the steps below.
Windows Phone 8.1 Update to bring a Siri Like Assistant Called Cortana
Windows Phone 8.1 update is set to hit this Spring at Microsoft’s BUILD Conference if Microsoft’s promises are to go by. This is a major update for the users of Windows Phone as it promises to bring several much requested features. Windows Phone 8.1 would bring the likes of a dedicated Notification center, ability to add a dedicated wallpaper to the start screen and support for onscreen navigation keys. These are the features that have been available on Android for ages, but Windows Phone has lacked them no wonder it is having a tough time packing numbers in despite a resurgence in the last year.
Blackberry is working on an update to bring Photo Sharing to Multi Person Chat in BBM
No matter how badly BlackBerry’s stock is plummeting, one product that continues to save grace, or at least almost is a saving grace has been the BBM. The messenger service which is now cross platform still has a loyal list of followers and has done reasonably well in terms of downloads even if it has not really hit the peaks BlackBerry expected it would. BBM for Android and iOS recently got a massive update which allows them access to
Sony Announces the Xperia E1 and E1 Duo in India

Sony also recently announced the Xperia Z1 Compact in India recently.

How to Shoot the Perfect Selfie with an iPhone using your Earpods
It is a common notion that if you have any good taste in music, there is no way, you would use the earpods that come bundled with the iPhone right out of the box. They have low mids, and certainly bad bass. It is good for casual listening, but no more.
Nokia X Set to be unveiled in India on March 10th for about Rs. 8,500
Nokia has started sending out invites to the media circle today for an event that is to take place on March 10, 2013. The invitation clearly states, “‘Nokia India cordially invites you to Xperience a new beginning’” and the large prominence of X does not take a genius to figure out that it is for indeed the much awaited Nokia Android device that Nokia X is. It would be interesting to see if Nokia will release the other two devices, i.e. Nokia X+ and Nokia XL alongside the Nokia X.
Vertex for iPhone brings futuristic concept to your iPhone running iOS 7
We all love a bit of sneak peek into the future. Jailbreaking a device pretty much allows us to do exactly this, load up features on our mobile devices that otherwise may not be available. While it may be argued that the jailbreaking community is on it’s way down and out, but till the time it is here we should totally enjoy it. Vertex is yet another tweak from the community that does the sort of stuff you would perhaps have wanted Apple to do right out of the box.

Some of the well documented changes are the fixing of white screen of death,
StatusBright allows you to Adjust the brightness on your iPhone from Status Bar
While the iPhone comes with a rather effective ambient sensor to help with auto brightness, most of us like to have brightness controlled manually. This usually means dimming the brightness all the way down in low light like night or raising it all the way up during the day. While, this is easily possible to be done with the new Control Center in iOS 7, if you have a jailbroken iPhone, then things could be even easier. With the help of a Cydia tweak
