We can do nothing if your phone is run out of battery, and most of smartphones fail in giving a long battery life, so I put the tips about how to extend the battery life in the first place. There are several tips that you can do to extend the battery life of your Phone.

For me, the Easy Battery Saver app is the best app that can help you prolong the battery life of your smartphone as it manages everything from the active applications, to the background, to the web browser. Make sure download one Power Saving app on your phone.

2. Video multi-tasking 

Both of the Galaxy S3 and Note 2 allow you to watch a video while multitasking on the phone at the same time, called Pop Up Play. However, both of the phones does not support all file formats, so just download a media player like MX Player to help you.

Turn on Pop Up Video Pop Up Video

• Touch Apps > Video Player, Select a local video file to begin playback.
• Touch Pop up video. If the control menu is hidden, simply touch the video to unhide the menu.

3. S Beam

With this function, you can quickly transfer content to other NFC Android devices with a tap. To turn this on, go into Settings, more Settings and then tap S Beam.

• Touch the devices together, back to back.
• On the device you are sending the content from, the screen will show Touch to beam. Touch the content on the screen to begin the beaming process. When prompted, separate the two devices and the content will begin to transfer.

4. S Voice
Both of the super phones have S Voice built in, an intelligent voice recognition service that can act as your personal assistant. Everything will be easier with its help, like check the weather, compose an e-mail, and even launch other apps or more. Like if you shout "shoot" at your phone and it'll take the photo.

The Direct Call feature will automatically call a contact if their log, contact, or message details are on the screen and you move the handset to your ear. Direct Call can be switched on and off in the Motion section of the settings menu.

6. Smart stay
Personally, this is my favorite special feature. Smart stay uses its front-facing camera to see if your eyes are still looking at the screen. If it finds them, it’ll keep the screen t active, rather than let it sleep. You can activate the feature from within the Display submenu of the full Settings menu.

7. S Pen (stylus)

The S Pen makes it simple to take a screenshot of your smartphone's full screen by holding the side button in and holding the pen to the screen until the edge of the screen flashes white, signaling a screenshot has been taken.

Christmas gift Guide: Top 6 Christmas gifts idea for Christmas 2012

It won’t be that long before Christmas is upon us, and it is the best time of a year to show your love to family and friends. While many hoping to find a new high-end smartphone in their Christmas stocking, others like considering a tablet as a gift for their loved one this Christmas, so have you chosen the proper Christmas gift? If you are the one who have been in trouble to find a proper gift for yourself or send friends, I am sure the information below will offer some help to you. Just check the top 5 Christmas gifts for Christmas 2012 this holiday season.

Smartphone: Samsung galaxy S3
Once mentioned about which smartphone to buy during the Christmas, most people will think of iPhone, Samsung Galaxy, Nokia Lumia, HTC windows phone. So which one is the best that worth buying? I would say: Samsung galaxy s3, the best-selling phone during the third quarter of 2012.

The Galaxy S3 have a spec of quad-core 1.5 GHz Snapdragon S4 Processor, 8-megapixel camera, 4G LTE or HSPA+ support, and also Samsung’s unique PIP function (Pop Up Play) that let you watch the video, while checking the mail or doing other things. That is all the reason that I put it in the first place.

Tablets: iPad Mini
Poll from Thomson Reuters finds that 42% of prospective tablet buyers were interested in an iPad mini, and personally I like the iPad mini very much, so for tablets, I take the iPad Mini as the winner.

With a new 7.9-inch screen, the iPad Mini is lighter, slimmer and of course easier for people to carry. So you will find it is more convenient than before when you try to use the tablets like play games, watch videos, and so on.

Game App: 100 Christmas Gifts
It's the perfect holiday game for the whole family during the Christmas holiday.
It is one game that let you help Santa solve the puzzles and advance to the next room of the house. Funny Puzzles and amazing artwork are full of the app.
It is one of my favorite games during the holiday season.

If you find it is some difficulty to solve the puzzle and unlock the current door to get the next level, I have found 100 Christmas Gifts Walkthrough and Guide for you. But I don’t think it is a good idea for you to watch this when you are the first time play this game. Just try your best to solve the puzzle.

Media app:  Christmas deal
Movies play a very important role in our daily life, especially during the Christmas holiday as they bring endless fun while together with our family and friends. We would like to watch high-definition quality movies, YouTube videos and DVD with our portable device, and sometimes we need some media app to help us allows for playback of the movie on devices such as smartphone or tablets, DVD players. And here I have find 50% off Media App discount for Christmas Promotional. It will be wonderful no matter for family use or send as a gift to friends.

Wallpaper app: 3-D Christmas Live Wallpaper
The free app offers you a sparkling tree-shaped graphic as your device’s background image. Among the many festive wallpaper apps in the app store, I like this app most: it gently animates as you switch screens, and from time to time it changes into a glittery countdown clock. Christmas tree scene, Happy New Year scene, Countdown scene, Snow scene, Lanterns scene, or any combinations are provided.

Christmas gift cards
All above gift list are tech gifts. So what about some traditional gifts? Of course a well designed Christmas gift card is somewhat the most popular Christmas gift for family and friend. Though this idea is quite traditional, it is really useful. With a little thought and effort, you can make the Christmas gift card more personal with DIY work. This would make the Christmas more meaningful.

Working with multiple classes

So what do you think about the ad, Apple and other Smartphone maker wouldn’t have made one like this for its representative product this Christmas, right? Will you update to the iPhone 5 or Samsung?

For those who have planned to buy Samsung smartphone this holiday, you can read this full review about Galaxy Note 2 from CNET.

Conditional Operator (? :)

Syntax for conditional operator available in java is given bellow.

variable  = (condition) ? expression-1 : expression-2; 
Example:
  result  = (s=='+') ? (a + b) : (a - b);

The condition is a Boolean statement. If the condition is found to be true, then expression-1 executes and assigned to the variable and if the condition is false then expression-2 executes and assigned to variable. It is very useful, because it perform the action corresponding to true and false condition in a single statement. 

In the example if the value of character variable s is +, then a + b is calculated and assign the result to the variable result. And if the value of s is other than +, then a - b is calculated and assign the result to the variable result. Consider the following full example for getting more details about it.

import java.io.*;
class ConditionalOperatorDemo
{
public static void main(String args[]) throws IOException
{
char s;
int a,b,result;
result = 0;
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
System.out.println("Enter first number :");
a =Integer.parseInt( br.readLine());
System.out.println("Enter second number :");
b =Integer.parseInt( br.readLine());
System.out.println("Enter a choice +/-  :");
s = (char)br.read();
result  = (s=='+') ? (a + b) : (a - b);
System.out.println("Result =  "+result);

}

}

Output:

D:\>javac ConditionalOperatorDemo.java
D:\>java  ConditionalOperatorDemo
Enter first number :
7
Enter second number :
2
Enter a choice +/-  :
+
Result =  9
D:\>java  ConditionalOperatorDemo
Enter first number :
6
Enter second number :
1
Enter a choice +/-  :

_

Result =  5

switch case statement

The switch case is also same as the if else if loop. It also checks multiple conditions for  a single variable or statement.
Syntax:
switch(statement/variable)
{
case 1:
statements;
break;
case 2:
statements;
break;
....................
....................
case n:
statements;
break;
default:
statements;
}

The statement or variable is compared to each of the cases for equality. The checking is done in a sequential manner.  If any of the case satisfy the statement/variable then the statement associated with that case only executes. The break statement is important.

If break statement is missing then the loop performs unwanted checking and generates unwanted output.

For more details consider the following example.

import java.io.*;
class SwitchDemo
{
public static void main(String args[])throws IOException
{
char ch;
BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
System.out.println("Enter an alphabet:");
ch  =  (char)br.read();
switch(ch)
{
case 'a':
System.out.println(ch+"  is a vowel");
break;
case 'A':
System.out.println(ch+"  is a vowel");
break;
case 'e':
System.out.println(ch+"  is a vowel");
break;
case 'E':
System.out.println(ch+"  is a vowel");
break;
case 'i':
System.out.println(ch+"  is a vowel");
break;
case 'I':
System.out.println(ch+"  is a vowel");
break;
case 'o':
System.out.println(ch+"  is a vowel");
break;
case 'O':
System.out.println(ch+"  is a vowel");
break;
case 'u':
System.out.println(ch+"  is a vowel");
break;
case 'U':
System.out.println(ch+"  is a vowel");
break;
default:
System.out.println(ch+"  is not a vowel");
}
}
}

I am sure that many of you may know NBA Game time, a mobile application that gets revamped and re-released each year that allows us to keep up with all the latest scores, highlights and news from our favorite teams. So here I put this app in the first place.

Note: You should upgrade the free app via NBA League Pass Mobile in order to watch live regular-season games, NBA League Pass Mobile lets you watch live NBA action from your iPhone or Android device for $39.99. It essentially the same deal as NBA League Pass Broadband but for your phone. Be sure you understand the blackout rules before purchasing because you won’t get local teams or any games broadcast nationally on ESPN, TNT, ABC, etc.

The app is also fit for iPhone, iPad.

Some Official Websites for NBA Games:

This website is provided by Cable network TNT; yet, this time you can watch NBA streaming without cable subscription, only broadband connection is required.
This online streaming NBA differs from TV as the games are broadcasted on an interactive 4-screen interface, with each of the 4 providing a different camera angle.

It's updated official website for NBA Games of regular season, playoffs and the finals. And of course, you can watch NBA game live on this website.

This could be another option for NBA games. If you are a YouTube lover, I think the website is your choice. You can also download your favorite NBA video to enjoy.
