 Above this galaxy Note 2 will be equipped with quad-core processor which will increase the processing speed for better performance and will be helpful while multi-tasking it will be loaded with the latest Android Operating System form Google known Jellybean v4.1. Accordingly unbreakable plane (UBP) display technology may not be included in Galaxy note 2 and we may see this technology in some other next upgraded models.

What is CYDIA?

If you are an Apple iPhone, iPod touch or iPad user then you are already acquainted with this name CYDIA and what are its uses but for those who are not Familiar with this name let me tell you it is a third party application installer for your jailbroken iphone, ipod touch and iPad and it's almost similar to Apple’s app store. Jay Freeman (Saurik) is the developer of this application which open the door to install tons of apps, utilities and tweaks on idevices which are not possible with Apple App Store. So if you jailbreak your device with help of jail breaking tool it will install cydia. So what is the use of cydia? To over come this Question i will try to explain it with simple example.

You would have probably seen guys with smartphone other then from Apple use to change their themes and customize their phones to achieve different look and UI, but if you are an iDevice owner and have never jailbroken your phone and installed Cydia then it is not possible to install theme or other apps which are not approved by app store on your iDevice because Apple dose't provide this ability, But if you have jailbroken iPhone and installed Cydia then it is possible to install theme on your idevice simply from Cydia install Winterboard and it will allow you to install themes on your idevices. Some usefull applications such as BTstack Keyboard which allow us to use Bluetooth keyboard to interact with idevices, Wi-Fi sync enable syncing with iTunes in wireless mode no need of USB cable.

So now we can say that cydia allow us to install an applications and customizing tweaks which are developed by developers and programmers which are not available or approved in app store.

So now you can enjoy lots of apps and tweaks on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch.

Update HTC One X to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean [ Unofficially ] ROM

In the last week of June a new version of android has been announced know as Android 4.1 Jelly Bean at Google I/O 2012 conference and was distributed to participants. Initially this version of android will be the stock version on the new batches of the galaxy Nexus phones and tablets.Devices from other manufacturers may receive this update much latter. but here is a good news for HTC One X owners who are interested in checking out the new features of Jelly Bean’s on their HTC One X. This port of Android 4.1 Jelly Bean for the One X was release by senior member of xda tgascoigne as this rom was released by the developer very Quickly say within few days after the distribution of preloaded jelly bean nexus devices at Google I/O 2012 conference so because of short development period and lack of resources this rom can not be considered as a stable rom but according to dev. " probably expect to see some kind of Alpha release fairly soon." so you can expect a stable version of this rom for HTC X One from the developer soon.

   As for now Core system is working well with little to no crashes the things that do not work are Camera, Wi-Fi, radio, Audio, and probably many more so at present we cannot consider this Rom is Suitable for Daily uses. So we can say that this ROM is meant only for flashaholic, so if you are a daily user it is better to wait for HTC’s official update for the One X to Jelly Bean which will probably come in few months.
