Protecting your eyes while using your mobile phone




Most of us have sensitive eyes when they are hit by a strong source of lights.
You may feel a little ache and sometimes the head starts to ache too.
To prevent this instance happens while you are using your phone, you should adjust
its brightness level depending on the lightning you have on your surroundings.

In daylight, setting the brightness level of your phone screen to the lowest level will
give you a blind visions on your phone. At this time, the brightness level of the screen
must be 80-100%.

In mid-light surrounding like you are inside a house where there is a little light coming from the outside, you can set the brightness level to 30-50%.

At night or where the place where there is no source of light but your phone, make sure to set the brightness level at its minimum or 0%. For me, zero percent of brightness setting on my phone during this time still brights for me. If only I could adjust it to -10% I will do so but this feature is not available on my phone.

To easily adjust the brightness level of your phone screen, you can create a shortcut of it on your home screen. If you are using an android phone, from the start screen
  • Tap the menu key
  • Add
  • Shortcuts
  • Scroll down until you see the Settings
  • Then choose the Display settings
The shortcut will then goes to your home screen.
And there is no more reason not to adjust the brightness level from time to time as it needed.

The zombies are coming… back. It’s about time! The sequel to the hit action-strategy adventure brings the fun to tablets and touchscreens.

Safe mode in Samsung Phones




I've noticed that the Safe mode mark on the bottom left part of my phone screen appears after my phone felt on the ground from the height of approximately one yard.

My phone always felt on the ground but this is the first time that I've encountered this case. The device may already reach the highest impact resistance that's why the Safe mode comes out.

Don't panic about this thing, all you have to do is to restart your phone by turning it off, wait some seconds then turn it on again. The Safe mode shall not display at this time.

Facebook Contacts Sync




When you login to facebook using their mobile application, you will see an option asking you to select among these choices.

Sync all (Sync data about all friends to Contacts)
- this would update and add contacts from your facebook friends contacts to your phone book contacts

Sync with existing contacts (Sync data only about friends already in Contacts)
- this would only update contacts from your facebook friends contacts to your phone book contacts

Don't Sync (Use information about friends only in Facebook)
- this won't do anything at all.

After you have chosen your choice, tap the Sync button at the upper right corner.

How to make your Samsung Phone works faster?





The first question would be, why does my samsung phone got more log or behave so slow than before?
Your phone will get slower the more you installed applications on it.
It is like your desktop or laptop computer that when it is new or recently formatted, it is faster than the one that got a lot of software installed on it.

Reformatting your samsung phone would definitly not a good idea.
Instead, you can remove some applications that won't matter to you anymore.

You can also delete some files on your internal and external SD Card.
But these have a small effect on how to achieve a log free mobile phone.
Removing some installed applications will really do the help.
