Xiaomi Mi4 Specs ,Features ,Release Date and Price

The Xiaomi company is expecting more sales from the newest Xiaomi Mi4 than Xiaomi Mi3. Because Xiaomi Mi4 phone is anticipated as the huge hit in the china phone industry, after Hugo Barra who was the top Android person in Google, joined Xiaomi as the vice president.

The Xiaomi Mi 4 comes as budget handset makers in China are competing more aggressively on price and generous features, with even high-end manufacturers feeling the pressure.Xiaomi launched its flagship Mi 4 smartphone at a glitzy event in Beijing, where the Chinese budget handset maker's chief executive sought to challenge larger U.S. rival Apple.

The Xiaomi Mi3 flagship model which is in the market currently was able to attract a lot of customers. 10,000 handsets of this model which is the predecessor of Xiaomi Mi4, got sold within few minutes of its launch. You can check out Xiaomi Mi3 Pricein US and Asian countries.  (Philippines)

Xiaomi had so far reached only the markets of China, Hong Kong and Singapore. But Apple co-founder, Steve Wozinak predicts that Xiaomi will reach the US markets as well with the new Xiaomi Mi4 smartphone.

Xiaomi Mi4 Specs, Release Date and Price Rumors Review Xiaomi Mi4 Specs details for an upcoming smartphone from fast growing Chinese phone maker, Xiaomi recently surfaced on the Antutu benchmark website. The Xiaomi Mi4 flagship phone features some top of the line hardware, making it a major contender on the Android device market.

Xiaomi Mi4 Specs and Features
With the features of Xiaomi Mi4, it can be predicted that the handset will be the best deal in the mobile phone industry in China.

According to recent rumors and news reports, the Xiaomi Mi4 smartphone will have a Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 SoC processor which will work at a clock speed of 2.46 GHz. Because of this, it can be said to be a powerful handset than the flagship mobile phones available in the market.

But the chipset of this new device will be same as the Samsung Galaxy S5 and the HTC One 2014. The Xiaomi Mi4 will have a screen of 5.5 inch which will have the resolution of 1920x1980 as as PhoneArena reports.

This device will have a RAM of 3 GB with the extension support where Samsung Galaxy S5 has only a 2 GB RAM. And also a 16 GB internal memory will be included in this coming handset, which is one of the best features it is going to have.

As AnTuTu benchmarks and online leaks say, the new Xiaomi will have a great chance of having Android 4.3 Jelly Bean in it. A 13MP rear facing camera and a 8MP front facing camera can be expected from this new product.

The Samsung Galaxy S5 Features has 16MP front facing camera and a 2 MP rear facing camera. Therefore the Xiaomi Mi4 can be told as a quite similar version of Samsung Galaxy S5. Moreover the Xiaomi Mi4 will provide 4G LTE connectivity.

The Xiaomi Mi 4 has a metallic frame, which explains its launch tag line of "a journey of a piece of steel metal".

Xiaomi Mi4 mini
The are also rumors about Xiaomi Mi4 Mini which states that say that Xiaomi Mi4 Mini will be almost the Sony Xperia Z1 Compact. Xiaomi Mi4 mini phone will obviously have a smaller screen and lower specs but also a lower price tag.

Xiaomi Mi4 Release Date
The Xiaomi Mi4 Release Date is expected in the mid November 2014.

Xiaomi Mi4 Price
The price of the device will vary from the previously said price and it is said that the selling price will increase. So this new flagship handset is expected to be a new revolution in the mobile phone industry.

Xiaomi launched its first Android based smartphone in 2011 called the Mi-One, followed by the Mi2 in 2012 and the 2013 Mi3. The company expects to sell 40 million smartphones this year, which would be double the amount it sold last year. With models like the Xiaomi Mi4, you can see why the company expects to be so prosperous in 2014.

Xiaomi Mi 3 Available Nationwide

After gauging the Philippine market's interest with two consecutive fire sales that saw a total of 5,000 units of Mi 3s sold in just a few hours SOLD OUT, Xiaomi is now holding an open sale on Lazada. 

The price remains at P10,599, with the option to pay as low as P670 per month for 24 months via BDO credit card.

You're looking at a rule-bender; the handset yields about the same performance as today's leading smartphones while retailing at a fraction of their cost.

Specs Review : 

The Xiaomi Mi 3 rocks an impressive 5-inch 1080p IPS display and a top-shelf Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of non-expandable storage. Its aluminum-magnesium alloy frame holds a 3,050mAh battery. The rear and front cameras are rated at 13 and 2 megapixels, respectively.

Unique to Mi devices—including the Mi 3, of course—is MIUI, the company's heavily modified Android-based user interface. The Mi 3 variant sold in the Philippines uses the latest iteration of MIUI on top of Android 4.4.2 KitKat.

Earlier this month, Xiaomi said that its smartphone shipment almost quadrupled in the first half of this year, even surpassing the total number of devices the company shipped in 2013. Through six months, the four-year-old company sold 26 million handsets (33 billion yuan in sales), up by 149 percent from the first half of 2013's 7 million units (13.3 billion yuan in sales).

Research-firm Canalys ranked Xiaomi as the sixth-largest phone maker globally and the third-largest in its native China, where Mi devices outsold Apple's iPhones.

With the Mi 3's open sale in the Philippines, we're probably only a few weeks away from seeing the rest of the Mi lineup on Lazada, the company's local online retail partner. When we interviewed Xiaomi global VP Hugo Barra a month ago, we learned that the availability of the Redmi and the Redmi Note will come after the Mi 3's break-in period.

The Up coming Mi 4:

But the chipset of this new device will be same as the Samsung Galaxy S5 and the HTC One 2014. The Xiaomi Mi4 will have a screen of 5.5 inch which will have the resolution of 1920x1980 as as PhoneArena reports. There are also reports of another upcoming model, the Mi 3S which will be announced before the Mi 4. The Mi 3S was previously said to be unveiled on May 15, but Xiaomi introduced several new devices which include the 7.9-inch Mi Pad and the 49-inch 4K Mi TV 2.

Apple iPhone 6 clone hit the Chinese market

Two months before the Apple iPhone 6 is expected to be announced, working clones of the phone have already hit the Chinese market. The knockoffs are based on the rumored schematic and specifications that have made the rounds on the Web as of late. There's one difference, though: Instead of running iOS, the iPhone 6 clones are said to be using "a skinned version of Android with a custom launcher." 

 In case you didn't know, the Play Store is teeming with launchers that make your Android device look as though it's running Apple's mobile operating system. The OS 8 Launcher is just one example which NWE uploaded on its site.

The real thing is expected to be announced by Apple in September, featuring larger 4.7 and 5.5 inch displays.

Germany : Typewriters a low-tech solution for NSA Mass Surveillance

Germany says the only solution to guard against surveillance is - Stop using Computers

No, it does not mean that they are going to completely throw out all of their computer systems, but rather they would use it preposterous.

Every individual and offering encrypted communication by every company is the only solution to Mass Surveillance conducted by the government and law enforcement authorities.

A year ago, when it came to light that German Chancellor Angela Merkel’s own personal mobile phone had been spied by the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA) for years, Surveillance has become a big issue for Germany. Such a big that prominent politicians are seriously considering using manual typewriters for sensitive documents instead of computers.

 

 

The head of the Germany's NSA Inquiry Committee, Patrick Sensburg said in an interview with the Morgenmagazin TV show on Monday night, that the government is seriously considering a low-tech solution to the ongoing espionage problem and to keep American eyes off of sensitive documents.

 

According to the Guardians translation of the German interview:

Interviewer: Are you considering typewriters?

Sensburg: As a matter of fact, we have - and not electronic models either.

Surprised interviewer: Really?

Sensburg: Yes, no joke.

Sensburg is heading up the Bundestag’s parliamentary inquiry into the NSA’s activities on German soil and is the one who know about the serious concerns caused by foreign states surveillance programs.

Germany's NSA Inquiry Committee was established in March to investigate allegations by NSA whistle blower and former contractor Edward Snowden that the United States government has been eavesdropping Germans and even bugged Chancellor Angela Merkel’s personal cell phone, an issue that has strained relationships and raised trust issues between old allies, Berlin and Washington.

The relations between the two became even more worse when earlier this month, Germany arrested a German intelligence officer who worked as a double agent and passed information to the CIA about the parliament’s NSA investigation. According to Sensburg, US snooping is ongoing.

After Edward Snowden released his first document about the U.S. government's surveillance activities, even Russia also thought to revert again to the old-school forms of communication, and bought 20 electric typewriters last year to keep inside communications more private, according to the Moscow Times.

Free and Public DNS Servers (Updated July 2014)

Most of the time, your ISP automatically assigns a primary and secondary DNS server when your router or computer requests network information via DHCP. But what if those ISP-provided DNS servers aren't reliable or you're troubleshooting an issue and you suspect that DNS might not be working properly?

Primary DNS servers are sometimes called preferred DNS servers and secondary DNS servers are sometimes called alternate DNS servers. Primary and secondary DNS servers can be "mixed and matched" to provide another layer of redundancy.

[1] The DNS servers listed above as Level3 will automatically route to the nearest DNS server operated by Level3 Communications, the company that provides most of the ISPs in the US their access to the Internet backbone.

[2] Google also offers IPv6 public DNS servers: 2001:4860:4860::8888 and 2001:4860:4860::8844.

[3] OpenDNS also offers DNS servers that block adult content, called OpenDNS FamilyShield. Those DNS servers are 208.67.222.123 and 208.67.220.123. A premium DNS offering is also available, called OpenDNS Home VIP.

[4] The Norton ConnectSafe DNS servers listed above block sites hosting malware, phishing schemes, and scams, and is called Policy 1. Use Policy 2 (199.85.126.20 and 199.85.127.20) to block those sites plus those with pornographic content. Use Policy 3 (199.85.126.30 and 199.85.127.30) to block all previously mentioned site categories plus those Norton deems "non-family friendly." Be sure to check out the list of things blocked in Policy 3 - there are several controversial topics in there that you may find perfectly acceptable.

[5] GreenTeamDNS "blocks 18 categories which include malware, botnets, dangerous websites, adult related content, aggressive/violent sites as well as advertisements and drug-related websites" according to their FAQ page. Premium accounts have more control.

[6] Register here with SafeDNS for content filtering options in several areas.

[7] The DNS servers listed here for OpenNIC are just two of many in the US and across the globe. Instead of using the OpenNIC DNS servers listed above, see their complete list of public DNS servers here and use two that are close to you or, better yet, let them tell you that automatically here. OpenNIC also offers some IPv6 public DNS servers.

[8] These Public-Root DNS servers are the only two currently operating in the United States but if you're located ouside the US, see their complete list here and choose the best servers based on your location.

[9] The censurfridns.dk DNS servers are uncensored, operated by a privately funded individual, and are physically located in Denmark. You can read more about them here. IPv6 DNS servers are also available at 2002:d596:2a92:1:71:53:: and 2002:5968:c28e::53

[10] Hurricane Electric also has an IPv6 public DNS server available: 2001:470:20::2.

[11] puntCAT is physically located near Barcelona, Spain. The IPv6 version of their DNS server is 2a00:1508:0:4::9.

You can put DNS on your Router  or  on your PC

Your Handset and laptops may soon be Powered by Water

WASHINGTON: Imagine if the humidity in the air could power your smartphone or laptop. It may soon become a reality!

Water droplets jumping from a highly repelling surface can be harnessed to produce electricity that could be used to power electronic devices, MIT scientists have found.

Last year, researchers discovered that when water droplets spontaneously jump away from superhydrophobic surfaces during condensation, they can gain electric charge in the process.

Now, the same team has demonstrated that this process can generate small amounts of electricity that might be used to power electronic devices.

The approach developed by Nenad Miljkovic, Evelyn Wang from Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and colleagues could lead to devices to charge cell phones or other electronics using just the humidity in the air. As a side benefit, the system could also produce clean water.

 Japanese Girl selling Aqua Power Battery

The device itself could be simple, Miljkovic said, consisting of a series of interleaved flat metal plates.

Although his initial tests involved copper plates, he said any conductive metal would do, including cheaper aluminium.

In initial testing, the amount of power produced was vanishingly small — just 15 picowatts, or trillionths of a watt, per square centimetre of metal plate.

But Miljkovic said the process could easily be tuned to achieve at least 1 microwatt, or millionth of a watt, per square centimetre.

Such output would be comparable to that of other systems that have been proposed for harvesting waste heat, vibrations, or other sources of ambient energy, and represents an amount that could be sufficient to provide useful power for electronic devices in some remote locations.

For example, Miljkovic has calculated that at 1 microwatt per square centimetre, a cube measuring about 50 centimetre on a side — about the size of a typical camping cooler — could be sufficient to fully charge a cell phone in about 12 hours. 

There are some constraints: Because the process relies on condensation, it requires a humid environment, as well as a source of temperatures colder than the surrounding air, such as a cave or river.

In a practical device, two arrays of metal plates, like fins on a radiator, would be interleaved, so that they are very close but not touching. The system would operate passively, with no moving parts.

For powering remote, automated environmental sensors, even a tiny amount of energy might be sufficient; any location where dew forms would be capable of producing power for a few hours in the morning, Miljkovic said.

"Water will condense out from the atmosphere, it happens naturally," he said.

The findings are published in the journal Applied Physics Letters.

Aqua Power System, a Japanese company, invented this already. You can use any water-based liquid to produce a reaction between Aluminium and Magnesium. This also makes the batteries eco-friendly. There are no “bad” elements inside, just some you can usually find in nature and don’t harm the environment. The AA batteries will transmit a small power current able to work in small electronics. That is the reason the batteries name is NoPoPo, which means Non Pollution Power.

Fraternity: Companionship and Brotherhood

FRATERNITY - Konsepto mula sa ibang bansa  dinala sa Pinas ng mga iskolar na halos ang member neto noon at mga may potensiyal na maging Leader / Campos leader at walang anuman physical abuse.

Wiki - (Latin frater : "brother") A fraternity (or fraternal/secret organization) is an organized society of men associated together in an environment of companionship and brotherhood; dedicated to the intellectual, physical, moral, religious, and/or social development of its members.

Noong piling pili ang magiging miyembro  kapag na aalis ka sa pagiging iskolar awtomatikong maalis ka sa  FRAT.

Panahon palang ng kastila meron na FRAT a secret society.  Tulad ng MASON (Freemasonry) halos mga bayani natin member dito tulad ni  Rizal , Luna , Aguinaldo , Bonifacio , etc.
at yung Tatak ng MASON makikita sa mga ilalim ng mga Lumang tulay sa Panahon ng Kastila.
Lahat sila namatay para sa bayan.. di sa hizing :v

Nag simula yung mga alumni nag iba  at na highlight ang feeling of belonging to a group. Yung feeling na safe ka pag may group ka ,madalian mag hahanap ng trabaho, Padrinos. (in short influence mutually beneficial purpose) - eto yung maaring dahilan kaya na hikayat ang mga  sasali ng FRAT

Ang mga nakakatandang miyembro mapapansin naka lukluk sa senado :v o
may mataas na katungkulan sa society or may ari ng anuman bigtime na negosyo.
example nalang   (UP Sigma Rho )

• Juan Ponce Enrile '52, former Senate President, also former Secretary/Minister of National Defense as well as Congressman from Cagayan
• Edgardo Angara, '52, former Senate President, Executive Secretary, Secretary of Agriculture, and President, University of the Philippines
• Franklin Drilon '66, current Senate President as well as Executive Secretary, Secretary of Justice, and Secretary of Labor, all under President Corazon Aquino
• Jovito Salonga, '39, former Senate President (resigned bilang member ng Sigma Rho)
• Sonny Angara, '96, former Representative of the Lone District of Aurora

at madarami pang iba   sa Wiki basahin nyo nalang :p

Hizing - initiation nakasanayan na di tiyak anong year para sa neophyte  sa ngalan ng kapatiran gamit ang paddle papaluin ka sa likod ng hita ng more than 50x. at kung may problema ka sa sa dugo mo baka ikamatay mo eto. ang labis pamumuo ng dugo  sa hita nakakatoxin  sa katawan. dilang sa mga University nagaganap eto kahit sa Government Institution tulad ng PMA. walang pinipili babae man or lalaki   ( Sarap or Hirap?)

Paano mo ama ireregulate kung ito ay banned sa University  wala ka saying paano ang regulasyon kung ito ay banned , ngunit may ibang Universidad  nag re recognize ng Frat tulad ng UP . Ang maganda kung eto ay recognize ng School alam kung sinu ang hahabulin dahil naka registered ang FRAT sa  School. At maingat sila  dahil alam nila na bawal ang hizing.

Ang problema sa hustisya ang yung pagiging tapat ng member neto  kaya walang malinaw  kung sino na ang naparusahan.

Bilang Neophyte  alam na nila kung ano ang sinalihan at ano ang manyayari .Na jan ang malawak na media  napapanood at nababalitaan nila yan sa TV about hizing. walang pumilit  at  sariling desisyon at walang bawian atrasan kung sasali ka.

Underground Search Engine "Dark Internet"

Governments are forcing search engines to show wrong results. It's time for search engines to go rogue so they can be right.

In the 1990s and 2000s, the limitation was technical. The so-called "deep web" and "dark Internet/Dark Web" -- which sound shady and mysterious, but simply refer to web sites inaccessible by conventional means -- have always existed.

Many parts of the Internet are hard to index, or are blocked from being indexed by their owners.
Companies like Google have worked hard to surface and bring light to the "deep, dark web" recesses of the global web on a technical level.

But in the past few years, a disturbing trend has emerged where governments -- either through law or technical means or by the control of the companies that provide access -- have forced inaccuracy, omissions and misleading results on the world's major search engines.

The reasons for these requests vary, and often sound reasonable -- national security, law and order, national pride, religious sensitivity, social order, suppression of hate speech, privacy, protection of children -- you name it. But when you add them up and allow them to grow in number over time, the cumulative effect is that increasingly, search results don't reflect the real Internet. 

Until recently, search engine censorship was not on the list of first-world problems. But in the last few years, governments in the United States, Europe and elsewhere in the industrialized world have discovered that, although they're prevented by free-speech laws from actually blocking or banning content where it lives, censoring search engine results is a kind of "loophole" they can get away with. In an increasingly digitized, search-engine discoverable world of content, censoring search results is a way to censor without technically violating free speech protections.

Starting in 2011, companies like Google started reporting a disturbing rise in government requests for search engine results to lie -- to essentially tell users that existing pages and content on the Internet do not exist when in fact they do. Requests for such removals by the U.S. government, for example, rose 718% from the first half of 2011 to the last half. And they've continued to rise since.

And such requests weren't just coming from the U.S., but from "Western democracies not typically associated with censorship," according to the Google policy analyst who reported the trend on behalf of the company and talked about Google's Transparency Report.

Worse, the ruling required search engines to offer a process by which any European could request similar treatment, and ordered Google, Microsoft and other search engine companies to judge whether those requests were valid and to take action on the valid ones.
At last count, Google had received some 70,000 requests for changes to search results under the ruling in the past month. Microsoft only this week launched its process for censoring results.

Useful Underground Web Search Engines

Most Internet users are so familiar with the major search engines that they don't realize there are other options out there. While it might sound silly to say, there are plenty of underground web search engines for you to choose from if the larger ones aren't cutting it for you. Some only deal with a single subject, and others offer more detailed options, but either way they will help you find what you are looking for.

We often talk about Underground communities, illegal websites or black markets, but as they are ‘Underground’ in nature i.e. Hidden websites running under Onion Network, many of us don't know how to reach the one we are searching for and if hopefully found, then its difficult to figure out a trustworthy vendor

Duck Duck Go

On the surface, Duck Duck Go doesn't seem like an underground web search engine. When you actually use it, you'll notice your search results look different. This is because Duck Duck Go augments its searches with information from crowd sourced websites, such as Wikipedia, and does this without collecting private information.

Duck Duck Go

Deep Dyve

While the deep web is often a concept applied to bogus conspiracy theories and science fiction fantasies, it is an actual thing. The deep web is made up of sites and pages that otherwise are unreachable by traditional search engines. Deep Dyve is an underground web search engine that finds information from hundreds of thousands of scholarly and research articles.

Deep Dyve

Prospector

Prospector is an underground web search engine that focuses on finding you free things. It aggregates information from across the Internet about freeware programs, free samples and free offers from businesses in almost every category. While it isn't a place to go for general information, it is a place to go if you need free alternatives to Microsoft Office, or shampoo samples.

Prospector

Torrent Finder

While other sites act as torrent aggregation and search engines, Torrent Finder is considered to be the king of them all. It allows you to search almost every one of the largest torrent sites on the Internet using one search term, and even allows you to pick and choose which sites you want to download from.

Torrent Finder

UFO Seek

If you are looking for underground search engines, it doesn't get much more underground than UFO Seek. This search engine is dedicated entirely to finding information about the paranormal. UFOs, ghosts and bigfoot. As usual, take anything you find with a large grain of salt.

UFO Seek

Grams

Not any More! As the first search engine, ‘Grams’ (http://grams7enufi7jmdl.onion) for online underground Black Markets has been launched in Beta last week, that lets anyone to easily find illegal drugs and other contraband online in an easier way ever and it's pretty fast like Google Search Engine.

 ‘Grams’

While the underground web may not be as titillating as many people wish it to be, using search engines that scrape below the surface help you find the information you need for almost any subject.


Dark Web
The “dark web” is a part of the world wide web that requires special software to access. One these, the most popular is Tor (originally called The Onion Router), partly because it is one of the easiest software packages to use. Tor downloads as a bundle of software that includes a version of Firefox configured specifically to use Tor.

Once inside, web sites and other services can be accessed through a browser in much the same way as the normal web.

However, some sites are effectively “hidden”, in that they have not been indexed by a search engine and can only be accessed if you know the address of the site. Special markets also operate within the dark web called, “darknet markets”, which mainly sell illegal products like drugs and firearms, paid for in the cryptocurrency Bitcoin.

Now Dark Web is not Dark anymore because of FBI and NSA

Dutch govt pays £5.5m for XP support extension

Dutch authorities announced on Friday that the government had signed a multi-million deal with Microsoft to extend support for the discontinued Windows XP operating system, following on from the British who spent AUD$10 million to do the same.

Dutch language publication Webwereld reported that the contract, which is worth millions of euros, will extend support for XP into early next year.

Webwereld reported that a Dutch government spokesperson said the number of PCs running Windows XP is between 34,000 and 40,000, but declined to provide an exact value for the deal.
