Microphone Notification Explained The notification you're seeing about your external microphone isn't a cause for alarm. It's a gentle alert about some minor, blocked features, put in place for your privacy. Think of it like a helpful reminder – the system is blocking certain advanced microphone features (things like background noise reduction or echo cancellation) to prevent unauthorized access. It's a safety precaution, like locking a door. These features, while useful for things like video calls, could potentially be misused. So, the system blocks them until you give the okay. It's a bit like a security gate; a little inconvenient to unlock, but it keeps things safe. How to Adjust Settings To stop the notification and use all your microphone's features, you'll need to adjust your settings: Turning a feature OFF in this case actually unblocks it. You're telling the system you understand and choose not to use that sp...

My Apple Watch Says My Heart Rate is 42 BPM - Is This Normal? My Apple Watch Says My Heart Rate is 42 BPM - Is This Normal? So, my Apple Watch recently recorded my heart rate at 42 beats per minute (bpm). Naturally, I freaked out a little. Is this something I should be worried about? I took to the internet for some advice and received a mixed bag of responses, which I wanted to share with you all. Some people reported similar experiences, particularly during sleep or periods of rest. Apparently, a low resting heart rate can sometimes be a sign of good cardiovascular fitness, especially for athletes. This was slightly reassuring, but I'm no marathon runner. Others were more cautious, recommending a visit to a cardiologist. Their point was that peace of mind is priceless, especially if you're not in peak physical shape. This definitely made me think. Then there was the technical side of things. Some suggested the read...

Xiaomi 14/14 Ultra Camera Lens Fogging Issue Note: Possible Fixes Compiled A few people have encountered a moisture issue with the Xiaomi 14 and Xiaomi 14 Ultra. The camera lens fogs up, especially in cold and damp weather. As an early tester of the Xiaomi 14, I encountered this issue myself. It recurred for a few weeks, but I can now say mine is resolved thanks to the fixes below. I will continue to monitor in case the issue returns. Moisture Issue / Condensation / Foggy Lens This is what my Xiaomi 14 looked like when I first opened it; the main lens was completely covered in fog. The next day, the moisture issue recurred, but I noticed it was much less. Over the next few days, the fog lessened but didn't completely go away. Very few Xiaomi 14 Ultra users are encountering this issue, but when it occurs, usually, multiple lenses fog up. Photo Quality You will notice some haze and glows in photos if you are experiencing this issue. Probab...

 After updating to HyperOS I am unable to install SA-MP mobile. Below are two methods which we can follow to install the app. Method 1: Using an ADB command (no root required): Download and extract “Android SDK Platform Tools” on your computer. The downloaded file can be extracted anywhere you’d like, I extracted it to the C drive. Enable USB debugging on your phone. This is done in “Settings,” click on “About Phone,” then tap on the “Build number” seven times. This will display a message that you are now a developer. Go back to “System,” and you will see an option for “Developer options,” click it, then enable “USB debugging.” On your phone, you may see a prompt to allow USB debugging, select “OK.” Connect the phone to your computer with a USB cable. Open a command prompt window within the “Platform Tools” folder from step one. Transfer the APK file to the “Platform Tools” folder. For ease, rename the file to a shorter name (app.apk). Type in the following command replacing “app.a...

Smartphone Showdown: realme 12x 5G vs Vivo T3x 5G vs Samsung Galaxy F15 5G realme 12x 5G I recently picked up this phone and overall, I'm pretty happy with it. For the price, it's a great deal. While it doesn't have all the fancy bells and whistles, like air gestures (maybe in a future update?), it gets the job done.

However, I was impressed by the performance – it's smooth and handles multitasking like a champ! Pros & Cons Pros Cons Great value for money: You get a lot of phone for the price. Missing some features: Air gestures would be a nice addition. Smooth Performance: No lag, even with multiple apps running. Camera is just okay: Not bad, but not amazing either.

 I was searching for a phone for my personal use, which has following features: Wireless Charging 5G Indian Bands Gorilla Glass Why Wireless Charging? I dropped my previous phone in water, and it entered the charging port. Now, the charging through wire is un-reliable. It works intermittently. Luckily my phone had wireless charging, I bought a wireless charger for Rs.700 from Amazon and spent my days. Though it was slow, at least my phone was usable. I don't want to repair my phone just to change the charging port, because I had bad experience replacing charging port for previous phone. To change the charging port, repair shop dude will rip open the phone, which creates entry for dust.  This makes wireless charging a viable option to keep your phone charged in case of emergency. Why 5G? With current 5G networks only available in Metro cities, we can live without this feature. But, paying 40K I expect my phone to last 3 years. Anything can happen in 3 years. 5G adoption may inc...

I have been using iPhone X for almost 4 months. I switched to iOS from stock Android variants like Nexus which I used as my daily driver. I watched too many reviews about iOS before buying this phone. One thing which I noticed is that it has very good app optimization, apps won't hang these are the few reasons which made me to switch to iOS. One video which compared iPhone X with Pixel 2 to see how long the phone takes to open the app. At every test iPhone X won easily against all Android phone. I got convinced and I bought this for almost 90000 rupees. Why I decided to sell this phone? First thing is notch. In the reviews people said that we will be used to the notch. However in my case I watched lot of movies and TV series in phone and you can never miss the black patch that is left for notch. Because of this notch I feel the user experience is not so great. I felt I could have gone for MI Mix 2 which has edge to edge display. The next thing which I hate in iPhone X is f...

People usually come by this question "which laptop to buy under 50000 rupees"? I would always suggest to go for Macbook Air which you can buy from the price range of 42000 rupees to 50000 rupees. Usually MacBook Air will be charged above 50000 but if you wait for offers you can definitely get for 42000 rupees. However, if you have no plans like which software you are going to use and if you use to open some documents daily internet browsing etc Macbook is the best. If you are going to buy laptop for a specific need for example to run Tally software, electronics software like NI Multisim these software won't run in Mac. Before going to buy Mac check whether the software will support MacOS. If it doesn't support, I suggest you to go for a Windows laptop. Why MacBook? First reason is Apple's hardware performance is phenomenal. I have a 3 year old MacBook Air which still looks new. It worth every penny you pay for. The laptop is very lightweight and you can ...

I bought Fitbit Alta HR from Flipkart 3 months back. It costed me 17500 rupees at that time and now it cost 15000 rupees. I can see your listing with 17000 rupees in Flipkart. Currently there are few offers in for the same band and it cost about 12500 rupees. The word HR means heart rate so it has heart rate sensor. What I noticed first in Fitbit Alta HR? First thing I saw in this band is it has a traditional railroad style strap. It is a attractive device and people will mistake it for bracelet. It is a basic fitness tracker watch which will count the number of steps taken and the distance travelled and the calories burnt. After using for 2 days you will notice that it also tracks your sleep. The touchscreen doesn't work like traditional way, you just need to tap on the device to see various options. Typing is the only way you will be interacting with the device. Fitbit app The device itself gives very less information. To get more detail we have to install a app in y...
