TIPS & TRICKS WITH SMS FUN

As, many of the regular readers of this blog might know, I am not a very at all happy with what Microsoft have turned Windows 8 into. I am still firm with my opinion that Windows 8 could have been a refined version of Windows 7 with many performance improvements, new Ribbon UI in Explorer, improved Task Manager, decreased boot-up and shutdown times etc.., but Microsoft decided to shoot them in the foot by stitching the ugly looking Metro Garbage into it and replace the beautiful Aero Glass with classic white color scheme.  One of the biggest complain I hear from Windows 8 users is, about how ugly Metro UI looks and is almost unusable with Windows 8. I've been running the Windows 8 Release Preview for quite some time and although I'm okay with no  Start Orb visible but I hate how I get to see   Metro see the new ugly interface by default every time I boot and  I have no desire to see a full-screen Start Menu when I log into my PC.   Unlike ...

Metro UI on Windows Phone 7 and Windows 8 is very unique, but if you are on Android tablet you cannot experience it. But its release for Android tablets has made it possible, ' BroBot175 ' from XDA developers has designed and released Metro UI for Android tablets giving them the Metro tiled look of Windows 8. The theme is flashable to your device using ClockworkMod recovery. It’s worth noting that the theme is in beta, but there is a website with instructions for installing the mod. Apparently, the mod will work on the Asus Transformer and Galaxy Tab 10.1 tablets right now. The beta release supports tablets running Android 4.0 and there are widgets under development just for the mod. If you don’t own either of the two tablets specified for support right now, another theme is coming that will support more tablets. The Metro UI theme will change your your homescreen and notifications panel. This release is a work in progress and many other things like Music widgets, bug...

Android Phones have a great calendar app built in that can pull from your Google Calendar, Exchange, PC Sync, Facebook and more. I love having all my events from different calendar's combined into my phone's calendar, but if when you combine Facebook's calendar, then your phone gets flooded with birthdays, especially if you have many friends on Facebook you don't even know. Nearly every day in my calendar was flooded because of the birthdays and unable to distinguish my important events. If you are frustrated like me with these then, there's a way to fix this and it's actually fairly simple, just a couple of steps:- Go to Settings -> Accounts & sync Uncheck Facebook calendar (in my case it was Facebook inside Xperia). Then Open you Calendar app and go to Options -> More -> My Calendars Select synced, not visible Press Ok and all that junk is gone. Note:- You might need to delete all events in some Android Phones to delete...

Mark Shuttleworth founder of Canonical, the company behind Ubuntu Linux reports in his blog that a new Head-Up Display, or HUD computer menu system, will be implemented into the Ubuntu 12.04 LTS release scheduled to go live in April. The new HUD feature will replace current menus in Unity applications, providing a faster way to access menus in applications. Instead of clicking through menus, users simply type the command they require in a search box. According to Shuttleworth, the new HUD can actually learn the actions a user most often requests and prioritize options for commands based on past use. HUD also covers system functionality, meaning users can play and pause music, or even change their IM status or go offline without having to access Skype directly, as an example. "It’s a way for you to express your intent and have the application respond appropriately," he writes. "We think of it as 'beyond interface,' it’s the 'intenterface.' This co...

In past few months, Linux Mint is on a road to surpass Ubuntu as the most popular Linux operating. According to an open source ranking website DistroWatch, Linux Mint has already topped Ubuntu as the top Linux distro. Why, ? The reason is because the Mint is giving users a choice between old and new interfaces. According to Clem(Maintainer of Linux Mint) Mint is one of the last distro to support Gnome 2.32 which has been abandoned by major top distros like Ubuntu, Fedora etc.. The new interfaces on those systems have mostly focused on mobile metaphor instead of the traditional desktop metaphor. The Ubuntu's answer is controversial Unity which has been rejected by most users as is the Gnome Shell which is used by other distros. Linux Mint here took a very unique turn, they have rejected implementing Unity and have focused on Gnome Shell and MATE. The Gnome Shell is modified by Mint developers with MGSE(Mint Gnome Shell Extensions) to make Gnome Shell lo...

This is what you can do Restrict PC Shutdown * Type gpedit.msc in run dialog box [ WIN KEY + R ] * This will open Group Policy Editor. Now there are two things in it, Computer Configuration and User Configuration * Click on User Configuration > Administrative Templates > Start Menu and Task Bar * Now look for “remove and prevent access to shutdown command” * Double Click and Enable it. * Exit the group policy editor.
