In
the main office of Samsung often like to show off their pure financial
gain, but do not like to be called officially as mobile devices and
tablet computers the company sold in the United States. Published
documents that were submitted to the Supreme Court during the loud
process of Apple against the South Korean developer Samsung, enable to
these figures, and also quite clear to see why the organization is not
in a hurry to show off in front of the world community.
According
to the above information, the corporation Samsung has shipped a major
cellular operators, which are all of the same territory of the United
States, basically, and are the largest sellers of high-tech products,
exactly twenty-one million tablets and mobile devices. In
particular, three models of tablet devices, which, according to the
head office of the American manufacturer Apple, violate their patent
rights to the so-called intellectual property, sold pretty bad. Numerous retailers have only one and a half million of these tablets.Official delivery flagship mobile smartphone Samsung Galaxy S2 series all-time retail sales amounted to four million copies. It should be recalled that it has officially started selling nearly eleven months ago. But otshumevshy Galaxy Nexus, which was made specifically for the corporation Google, and generally not held to a million. According to official data of all was delivered five hundred twelve thousand pieces.According
to the analytical information provided by Apple, the American
manufacturer since the distant two thousand and seven put eighty-five
million of its flagship mobile devices iPhone, forty-six million players
and iPod Touch series thirty-four million tablets iPad.The
above information also did not assess the actual numbers the
implementation of these devices, and completely ignores the level of the
so-called return of handsets that were not purchased at the time, as
retail sales networks and mobile operators.It
is known, however, that quite a number of customer returns a tablet
product Korean developer, claiming that they are simply confused them
with tablet computer iPad. In the case of a corporation like Apple refunds were not there.

The company "Doctor Web" - a Russian developer of IT security - informs about a new malware infecting mobile Android-device. Android.DDoS.1.origin
Trojan is capable of DDoS-attacks on various internet resources, and
can send SMS messages to team attacks.
When
installed on a mobile Android-device, the Trojan creates
Android.DDoS.1.origin application icon, similar to the icon directory
Google Play. If
the user decides to start deceived this fraud, will open the original
application, which significantly reduces the risk of any suspicion.After
starting the Trojan tries to connect to the remote server and, if
successful, it transmits to the mobile phone number of the victim, and
then waits for further commands that are sent by hackers using SMS. Among the supported directives present attack on the specified server, and sending SMS messages. If
you want to perform from the Trojan attack on a Web resource, the
incoming message against cybercriminals parameter specifies the form
[server: port]. Upon receipt of such a command Android.DDoS.1.origin starts to send to the address information packets. If
a malicious program is required by sending SMS, the command is sent
contains the text of the message and the number to which it should be
sent. Action
can reduce the performance of the Trojan infected handsets
Android-device, and to influence the well-being of its owner, as access
to the Internet and send SMS messages continue to be paid services. In addition, the potential to send messages to premium numbers may further affect the financial position of the victim user.Trojan
propagation mechanism is still not fully elucidated, but the most
probable are social engineering using the image of the official
Android-application from the corporation Google.

One of the big rocks in the garden of Android fragmentation from the competition is the hardware. After
the first news about Windows Phone, Microsoft announced that the
operating system will be a couple of standard hardware solutions and all
your applications will run on any smartphone. However, over time "budget" chassis Windows Phone 7, which did not work all or part of some applications from Store. It seems that with Windows Phone 8 situation is not repeated.
A
few days ago Windows Phone Marketplace added a new cute toy Guns 4 Hire
of four commandos left on the warpath against the roll into the abyss
of madness and aggression in the world. Each character has their own abilities and pumped skills that will help them get out of the most difficult situations. Any
weapon in the game, some of whom are with copies of mass destruction
(eg, flamethrower) also can improve and enhance its killer features. 18 missions, high-quality graphics and effects, story-and-paste video - all in a "big" game.
But
attracted Guns 4 Hire we did that the game does not want to be
installed on smartphones with the amount of RAM is less than 1 GB! At
the moment there is only one device with 512 MB of RAM on board - it's
Windows Phone 8S from HTC, but next month should appear on sale Lumia
620 from Nokia, which promises to be quite popular due to the modest
value, good looks and good performance . So, after a month of non-supported devices will be much larger.To
its credit, Microsoft, information about restrictions to be installed
on your phone appears as a clear message in the form of lack of memory,
and in the web version of the store (but there is only a line «* Not
available for all phones» in small letters). If you look at the game, these requirements still somewhat confused. Yes,
the graphics in the Guns 4 Hire a rather good and texture effects at
high level, but not so much that the game is not enough for 512 MB of
RAM. There is a feeling that this is a temporary PR-move and after a while will update that will remove the restriction.However,
regardless of the reality of the problems with this game in the future
can appear and other titles with the stringent requirements of hardware
hardware on Windows Phone. Is not this fragmentation?

Despite
the rather large official CyanogenMod team guys can not cover all
smartphones - they are trying to produce and maintain the project for
current devices with a large audience of fans, and there are some
license restrictions on drivers that prevent adapt the project. But
the openness of Android and CyanogenMod allows third-party developers
and small teams to create their own versions of firmware and assemblies
to your favorite smartphones. For example, for the once popular HTC Legend.
Distinguished
from XDA developer zeubea took the maximum updating software on the HTC
Legend, that is, transfer to your smartphone freshest Android 4.2 Jelly
Bean. The origin was not naked code AOSP, while simple project developments CyanogenMod. At
the moment, released the third alpha build and it is quite possible to
be called suitable for everyday use, most of the functions of the system
works:- GSM,
- Wi-Fi (very necessary to add the SSID)
- Audio,
- Hardware acceleration
- Multi-touch,
- Rotate the screen
- LEDs
- Sensors,
- Vibration,
- Charging,
- Keys,
- Memory Card,
- Mode USB Mass Storage,
- Adb,
- Root-access,
- Apps Google,
- Shooting video of low quality,
- Bluetooth,
- Camera.However, to a state of stability for CyanogenMod 10.1 Legend far - often even with a seemingly working function problems. From the obvious - incorrectly displays the signal GSM, the problem with a panoramic mode for the camera. It is difficult to say when this will be fixed, given the Christmas long weekend. But
in general, this project shows that even released in 2010 HTC Legend
can without difficulty pull the latest version of Android, and the
official support devices are not carried out because of marketing and
obsolescence.
