librankur 39 Report post Posted November 18, 2014 The Grand 2 that i have is facing a problem after automatic software update , it switches on and off every now and then, post the update.Its not even 5 months old. Check about this problem , its all over the internet. I am planning to visit the service centre soon. Week back bought the Knight , cant say much as it was for gifting , i liked its looks though. Bought the Black - Gold one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LeoRahi 31 Report post Posted November 18, 2014 Librankur do check this (just found it on a forum)- I've fixed this issue. 1. There was advice to WIPE CHACE PARTITION, I did that but problem persist. 2. So I follow my own instinct to to FACTORY RESET and the issue solved. WIFI is working again, button are working and its not restarting anymore. Bear in mind, take 2 minutes or so to backup your data, I normally backup my SMS and whatsapp message, that's it, others are all in my Google account. Do factory reset from safemode. while the phone is off, press vol (up) + menu + power, then select the task you desire. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
librankur 39 Report post Posted November 19, 2014 Nexus 6 - Pre launch booking now open Moto G (2nd Edition) rules the segment you are looking at, though i dont like how it looks. A recent study shows the falling Samsung and Apple sales graph in india , a country where the lesser mortals are being appreciated more. Xiomi is ruling the charts .

LeoRahi 31 Report post Posted November 19, 2014 Only problem with the Moto G is that it doesnt have an external memory slot other than that everything is fine Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
driftpunk 0 Report post Posted November 23, 2014 I went to the Apple Store today and bought the iPhone 6. It was a long wait before Apple moved on to a big screen size. Could have got iPhone 6 plus but I guess that is way to big for me. Will post pics soon. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vikky1971 5 Report post Posted November 23, 2014 Congrats! on getting iPhone 6. I see problem with the iPhones is that you cannot transfer any file or pictures to any laptops or MacBooks(white ones). Rest all fine. iPhone 6 is sleek and similar to the cells in vogue. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Simply stay away from Sumsung devices which are lesser than 2 GB RAM and Grand series is most pathetic one in this regard. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
librankur 39 Report post Posted January 17, 2015 Looking for a 10 inch tablet Basically for my mom, minimum usage mostly shopping on websites and daily video chat sessions with me. Recently upgraded the wifi speed at my home and her smart phones smaller screen size is limiting the internet experience for her. The Smart /Web TV is limited to a room and cant be moved around , also its webcam is basically poor . Dont want to burdern her with a full fledged Laptop that may require some getting used to. Wanted some suggestions in 10 inch space Apple iPad Air 2 is up for consideration i also Notion Ink (like its pricing and the added keyboard) Lenovo Yoga 2 your inputs please.

vikky1971 5 Report post Posted January 18, 2015 @librankur look into the Windows Surface Pro 3, this similar to the iPad with a collapsible cover and the cover has a detachable keyboard too and weighs around 800g. It looks really good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LeoRahi 31 Report post Posted January 19, 2015 Look no further than iPad Air 2. It's the best tablet in the market ATM. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
librankur 39 Report post Posted January 19, 2015 @vikky I certainly like the whole idea of adaptable multi mode tablet and laptop experience. Does the surface has that big an impact , I haven't seen it yet but will be more than happy to try it out first. @leorahi No doubt about it that air 2 is the best one around Snapdeal is having a flash gadgets sale starting 9 am tomorrow also we have flipkart trying to trump amazons Republic Day sale Hoping to get something at attractive price there Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vikky1971 5 Report post Posted January 20, 2015 Problem with the apple products is that you can transfer the pictures and files among apple products only. Now white MacBook is excluded from the aforementioned apple products. This I could tell you as I cannot transfer files from my iPhone 5s to my MacBook white. Yes! Windows surface pro3 pad looks great and sophisticated. Have a look at it some nearby mall. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
