Improved MTN Night Plan Now 2GB for N200 daily

Improved MTN Night Plan Now 2GB for N200 daily

15:14 Add Comment

If you are a fan of MTN night plan or any other nightlife bundles then the 2GB for N200 is good news for you.

MTN has improved the Nightlife bundles, formally the fair usage policy was limited to 500MB/day which means you can only use 500MB per subscriber every day, now 2GB/day. And now this runs from 11 AM-6 PM as opposed to its initial 12 AM-4 AM interval.

Airtel too has a night plan that offers 250MB for N25 and fair usage policy of 1.25Gb/day. This plan runs from 12 AM-5 AM.

Now, what does this means for MTN users? It means that since the nightlife bundle has only 2 options 250MB for N25 and 500MB for N50, you can now subscribe the 250MB for N25 8 times per day and 500MB for N50 4 times per day. Isn't this good news?

  • Tap the menu button next to the microphone icon at the top of the app
  • Tap settings
  • Tap Blocked Numbers
  • Tap Add a number
  • Enter the phone number you wish to block

This option is quite easy to get done.
Create a folder just like we did in the previous method. 
Choose any name of your choice,
Move files into it.
Then right-click on the folder, click on properties,
Change it's "Attributes" to hidden,

On a Windows 10 PC open the windows explorer,
Click on the View tab and check Hidden items box
Remember to revert this after viewing your files.

Then you will need to install the App recommended below to be to record video gameplay on your PC and be sure to set the recording quality to minimum or close to a minimum to avoid a decrease in the gaming experience.

Guide to Delete Your Amazon Account in 2mins

Guide to Delete Your Amazon Account in 2mins

If you are finding it difficult on how to delete your Amazon account then you are at the right place as we are going to show you how to delete your Amazon account in this guide.

A lot of companies make it quite difficult to delete their account and Amazon is among them. 

What you need to know before you delete your Amazon account

There are some things that you need to know before deleting your account, your Amazon account is shared across Amazon’s websites so if you delete it, you will lose access to Amazon.com which is also applicable to international stores like Amazon.co.uk and Amazon-owned sites like Audible.com. And you can’t sign into any website you use your Amazon account for.

Your Amazon Payments account will be shut down as well.
Basically, you are going to lose access to everything. All of your open orders will be canceled, subscriptions like Amazon Prime will end immediately and you will lose any Amazon gift card balance in your account.

You will not be eligible to return purchased items for a refund or replacement. The Digital content you purchased will be gone and you won’t have access to redownload Kindle eBooks, Amazon videos, music, digital software and games, and whatever other digital content you might own.

Your account purchase history and customer data will also be deleted by Amazon, so any reviews, discussion posts, and photos you have uploaded to Amazon’s website will also be erased.

The only way to remove your Amazon purchase history is by closing your account and creating a new one but you can archive some of your orders to make them less visible in the list of previous purchases.

You do not have to close your account if you just want to cancel Amazon Prime, change your email address or remove a payment method. You can do every one of these without closing an account but if you really think you have to, then this is what you need to do.

However, Amazon does not give you a straightforward option to delete your account on their website. Instead, you will have to contact their customer service and ask them to do it for you.

Google sued for illegally collecting user data

Google sued for illegally collecting user data

14:58 Add Comment

Some groups of lawyers have filed a lawsuit against Google for illegally gathering users’ information during an incognito browsing session. That simply means google has been spying on you while you are surfing secretly using that mode, they are watching and gathering information about what you do.

The complaint, which has been filed to the US District Court for the Northern District of California by a partner at the Boies Schiller Flexner law firm, states that it has taken action because of “Google’s unlawful and intentional interception and collection” of confidential communications without users’ consent.

This took place, the complaint continues, “even when those individuals expressly follow Google’s recommendations to prevent the tracking or collection of their personal information and communications.” Whenever you launch a new Incognito window in Google Chrome, the software displays a message that this mode is designed to allow you to “browse privately”. It says other people who use the device will not be able to access your browsing history.

Google is very clear that downloads and bookmarks in Incognito Mode will still be saved – exactly like when browsing in a non-private mode. The search giant states browsing history, cookies, site data, and data inputted into forms will not.

The class-action lawsuit argues that Google does “track and collect consumer browsing history,” as well as other online activity regardless of whether or not someone is using the Incognito Mode built into Chrome, or not.

Although Google makes it clear that websites will still be able to record your visit and activity – as well as employers, schools, and the broadband companies, the complaint claims that Google “accomplishes its surreptitious tracking,” using methods such as Google Analytics, the Google Ad Manager and the Google Sign-In button for websites.

Here in this post I want to show you how to fix external hard drive not showing. But before we delve into that i will list the reasons why this may happen and then a quick fix for each.

There are many reasons that can cause this.

  • The most common reason that cause external hard drive not showing is Faulty cable or port if you have checked the cable and the port is not faulty go to the next fix.
  •  Another reason that might cause external hard drive not showing is the drive not having a drive letter like Local Disk C: etc. just like in the image below

 

hard drive with no drive letter assigned

  • Just to be sure try inserting your drive into another PC and if it shows up then this fix will most likely work for you.
  • When this is the case you just need to get to the disk management utility and assign a drive a drive letter to the hard drive.
Follow these simple steps to assign drive letter to the hard drive and fix external hard drive not showing
  • Run the Disk Management console,
  • Open the run command, enter diskmgmt.msc,

The hard drive is not initialized

If the hard drive is a new drive then this could definitely be the problem.

  • To fix this go to the disk management console,
  • Look for any drive labelled unallocated(with the size of drive you are looking for)
  • Right-click on the drive and click on New Simple volume

 

 The hard drive is hidden

If the hard drive is hidden by some partition manager, it won’t appear in File Explorer. However, this time you cannot fix this issue by simply add a drive letter to it. You can unhide the partition by using any partition manager tool or MiniTool Partition Wizard.

You can also know if your drive is hidden or not by going to the disk management. Right-click the partition that has no drive letter, and sees whether the feature “Change Drive Letter and Path…” is greyed out.

In the main interface of MiniTool Partition Wizard Free,

Select the hidden partition and choose Unhide Partition from the action panel.
Select a drive letter from the pop-up window and then click OK.
Press Apply at the toolbar.

Unsupported or RAW file system:

If the external hard drive has unsupported files system or hard disk become RAW, the partition bar won’t show up in Windows File Explorer. You can only see the drive icon and drive letter there. If you try to access the drive, Windows requires formatting.

To fix this simply format the drive by clicking on 'restore device defaults' on the device format window. 

Drive not enabled in the BIOS

If the hard drive is not showing up in Disk Management and Device Manager, it may be because it is not enabled in System Setup (BIOS).

Some motherboard manufacturers disable unused ports in the BIOS by default, which is the common reason for the 2nd hard drive not showing up in Windows 10/8/7.

You will need to enter BIOS to verify their current states and make sure all hard drives are enabled.

Note that different computer manufacturers have different methods to enter system BIOS, please check your system documentation for specifics.

Faulty hard drive

If you have completed the above checks and the external hard drive is still not showing on your computer, you should send the hard drive to repair center and check whether it fails. If it is still on the warranty, please proceed to begin a warranty replacement.

That is all on how to fix eternal hard drive not showing up. If you have questions feel free to use the comment box.

Xiaomi Teases 1st Under-display Camera for Smartphones

Xiaomi Teases 1st Under-display Camera for Smartphones

14:37 Add Comment

The Era of under-display camera is here!

@XiaomiNigeria in one of their recent posts gave us a heads-up on their soon to launch under-display Camera smartphones. With devices now featuring notches in a bid to use the full view for display.

The question is, how do you get a full-screen display without the need for a slider,  pop-up or notch camera? 

Xiaomi in their post just like Oppo is exploring the possibility of hiding the front-facing camera under the display. When the selfie camera is activated, the display area over the camera lens becomes transparent in an instant, allowing light to enter. This could be the ultimate solution for a full-screen display coexisting with a front camera.

Another question is how could this be done?

According to Xiaomi, the selfie camera is hidden under the display, with a cleverly designed display-embedded camera combo;  the transparent display doubles as the camera lens. By allowing more light into the lens, the under-display camera is able to produce perfect selfies, clearer and crisper than the pinhole camera solution when the camera is activated.

When the display is turned off, the front camera disappears and results in a black surface that is completely seamless.

This will retire the now trending notch design in smartphones.

What do you think about this under-display camera technology by Xiaomi?
