Backup and Other Important Tips

Done with the USB drivers? Perfect. The tutorial is on the next page, but first, please take a look at the following tips and important points you need to take care of. These are important, as we don’t want anyone losing their personal data or apps:

Always backup your important data that you might need after you install a new custom ROM, an official software update or anything else. Make a backup for just in case, you never know when anything might go wrong. See below for some tips on how to backup data:
Samsung users can also back up data using Samsung KIES. If you backup data manually, you get more options what to choose from and it is very easy to move data across Android devices from different manufacturers, i.e moving Samsung Galaxy Note backup data to HTC One X.
If you already have a custom recovery (ClockworkMod, TWRP etc.) installed on your phone, we strongly recommend a backup using that as it creates a complete image of your existing phone set up.

A few more optional tips that you should remember:

1. Having problems connecting your Android phone to the computer? You need to enable USB debugging mode. See here: How to Enable USB Debugging — for Gingerbread, Ice Cream Sandwich, Jelly Bean and KitKat.
2. Make sure your Android device is charged up to 80-85% battery level. This might help you: How to Check Battery Percentage. Why? Because, if your phone goes off suddenly while installing a custom ROM, flashing an official firmware update or installing mods etc. — your phone might get bricked or go dead permanently. No one wants that, right?
4. Most of the tutorials and how-to guides on Team Android are for factory unlocked Android phones and tablets. We recommend NOT to try our guides if your phone is locked to a carrier, unless we have specified the carrier name or device model.

If you find the above tips useful and they were helpful to you, please consider giving us a +1 or LIKE to thank us!
All set and ready? Good. Now, let’s proceed with the tutorial on the next page and update T-Mobile Galaxy S5 G900T with ClockworkMod Recovery 6.

How to Create a Blog with Jekyll – A Beginner’s Guide

WordPress, which humbly started as a blogging platform, has now transformed into a full-fledged and a very popular CMS. With WordPress, you can build (almost) any kind of website, from a portfolio to an e-Commerce website.

But what if you only concern about blogging, and you do not need jam-packed features in WordPress like custom taxonomy, user management, comment moderation, and a nice media uploader?

In short, you just want to be focusing on writing and publishing your content. If that is something you have in mind, let’s meet Jekyll, a static blogging engine.

Recommended ReadingHow To Create A Github Page For Your Project

About Jekyll

Jekyll comes with the idea of creating a static (same old HTML) blog, one which is easily maintainable. In comparison to a dynamic blogging tool, like WordPress that is built with a server-side language like PHP, a static website has 2 key advantages.

First, it serves and perform faster. Second, it consumes less web resources namely memory and database I/O. Additionally, if you use Jekyll, you can host your blog in Github Pages for free.

Install Jekyll

First, let’s install Jekyll in our system. Launch Terminal and type the following command line:

sudo gem install jekyll

Once installed, run this command to ensure that jekyll command is functioning.

jekyll -v

The command should show the Jekyll version, like so:

Create a Jekyll Site

To create a new blog with Jekyll, type jekyll followed by new and the name of the site in Terminal. For example:

jekyll new jekyll-blog

In this example, it created a new directory as specified, jekyll-blog, as well as the following stuff within:

Type this command below to activate Jekyll server.

jekyll serve

You can also run the the server using the --watch flag; that way it will automatically update the blog everytime we made a change.

Go to the browser and type http://localhost:4000, or as shown in the Terminal screen to open the blog.

The Document Structure

Jekyll applies a specific document structure that we have to follow, so the blog could function properly. Let’s take a look at what we have in our blog directory below:

|-- _config.yml|-- _layouts|-- _posts|-- _site|-- css`-- index.html

First, we have _config.yml; it is the the blog’s configuration file written in Yaml. In this file we can specify the blog name, the permalink format, host, Port number, and etc.

_layouts is where we put customized layout for page or post.

_posts is the directory where we save all our posts. All the posts should be written either with Markdown or Textile. They will be compiled and save the output in _site directory; this is the directory where Jekyll will serve the posts in the Browser.

Lastly, we have css and index.html.

For now, we will leave them as they are, with no custom configuration. Let’s start writing our first post.

Writing a New Post

As mentioned above, in Jekyll, we either write the post in Markdown or Textile. We have covered in the previous on how to write with Markdown; you may want to check that link first before going any further.

Naming Convention

To create a post, we also create a new file that must follow this naming convention year-month-date-{post-slug}.{file-extension}, for example: 2014-03-11-hello-world.md. Save the file in _posts directory.

Post Front-matter

Before we begin writing the body content of our post, we must first define the post front-matter namely the title and the post layout. We can also define the post categories and the tags, but these are optional. The most important thing is that the front-matter must be set within triple-dashed line. Here is an example:

---layout: posttitle: Hello World!---

Then we can write the content:

Hello world! Welcome to Jekyll. This is your first post.

Save the file. We will see the psot generated, and appear on our blog. Nice!

Wrap up

In this post, we have shown you how to install Jekyll and write your new post, which are the basic things that I think you ought to get to know before going further with Jekyll. There are a lot more things to explore in Jekyll, and we will discuss them in future posts. Stay tuned.

Galaxy S5 roundup: purchaser's information 2014

Galaxy S5 roundup: purchaser's information 2014

Putting down roots in Berlin after six years of touring is a serious step for Kris Carlon,

who has spent more time living out of a tent lately than sitting at a desk. Kris comes to the AndroidPIT Editorial Team via a lengthy period spent writing on art and culture in Australia and other places he has lived. He joined the Android community while resurfacing in civilization back in 2010 and has never looked back, using technology to replace his actual presence in other people's lives ever since.

The official launch date of the Samsung Galaxy S5 is tomorrow and there's no doubt that there will be plenty of people flocking to the shops to pick one up. Despite the harsh reception the S5 has received in the tech press, I'm actually a bit of a fan. Sure it could be better, but it's actually not all that bad at all. If you're on the fence and need a little help deciding if it's worth a look-see, here's our roundup of everything you need to know about whether or not to buy the Galaxy S5 tomorrow.

The Galaxy S5 has left a lot of buyers on the fence. / © Samsung

Galaxy S5 hands-on review

We got an early preview of the Galaxy S5 and did a quick hands-on video with Samsung's new flagship. If you want to get a better idea of the look and feel of the Galaxy S5 in action, then check out the following video.

Link to the video

Galaxy S5 software tour

We also went head to head with some of the major Galaxy S5 features. Including the Galaxy S5's S Health application, heart rate monitor, finger scanner, 4K video, selective focus and super-fast auto focus, download booster and new UI features, you can see the new TouchWiz in pictures or in the following video walkthrough of the S5 software.

Link to Video

Galaxy S5 power saving mode

We put both the Galaxy S5's and HTC One M8's power saving modes head to head in a quick comparison. We haven't had enough time to fully compare the actual battery life extension they provide yet, but I've pegged the S5's power saving mode as an early winner.

Galaxy S5 vs Galaxy S3

This is, for me, the real upgrade question. Many Samsung fans skipped the Galaxy S4 due to its similarity to the Galaxy S3. So making the jump to the S5 is the real choice for many. The S4 may be much like the S3 and the S5 may be much like the S4, but the S5 is a huge improvement on the S3.

Galaxy S4 vs Galaxy S5

If you upgraded to the Galaxy S4 and are now stuck with the same riddle about whether or not it's worth it to go for the Galaxy S5, here's a quick comparison between the S4 and S5 to help lay your questions to rest. Sure, the improvement may not be huge, but there are enough differences to make it worth serious consideration.

There's not all that much to distinguish between the S5 and S4 physically. / © Samsung Mobile/AndroidPIT

Galaxy S5 vs everything else.

As soon as the specs were known we put up a comparison between the Galaxy S5 and its major competitors. Then recently we posted another specs comparison between some new devices on the horizon and the best from Samsung. Don't forget the ''perfect smartphone'' OnePlus one is coming later this month and there's still no word on the final specs of the LG G3, but it's good to know your options.

How does the Galaxy S5 stack up against its compeittion? / © AndroidPIT

Included bonuses

There's a pretty good chance you'll be able to pick up the Galaxy S5 with an included Gear 2 or Gear Fit when you sign up for a two-year contract, and there's plenty of trade-in offers for the S5 too. But US carriers are also bundling a ton of premium app subscriptions with the Galaxy S5 to further sweeten the deal. There's also a few cool things about the S5 you may not have know before.

With a little bit of work you can set your S4 up like an S5. / © AndroidPIT

Get the Galaxy S5 look on your S4

If you're just not sold on the S5, don't forget that we also showed you some clever ways to unlock the Galaxy S5 look on your S4. From quick settings and new icons to wallpapers, settings menus and apps, it's all there and it won't cost you a thing!

Are you excited about making the improve? Or will you attempt one other manufacturer or simply stick together with your current handset?

World Travel Guide by Triposo: the world in your pocket!

Features & Use

The World Travel Guide by Triposo is basically an app framework into which the various downloadable city and country guides fit, rather than having a smattering of different apps for each place. If you're a frequent traveler, or just like to explore the world from the comfort of your smartphone, this is the app you want. When you first download the World Travel Guide, which is only 22 MB in size, you will be shown the familiar Triposo splash screen and prompted to download a city or country guide to get started. You can also browse the available guides.

The familiar Triposo splash screen and available travel guides. / © AndroidPIT/Triposo

Once you've downloaded a guide the file will unpack and you will have access to either the compact city guide or the more encyclopaedic country guide which contains all of the smaller city guides within it. This time around I went for the country guide to all of Russia, which came in at a reasonable 120 MB, compared to just Moscow which was almost 50 MB alone. All of your downloaded guides are now available in the one app and are easy to switch between.

You can browse areas and download either city or country-based travel guides. / © AndroidPIT/Triposo

When you launch the app you will always be brought to the splash screen and asked to search for a new destination or to browse guides, both those you have downloaded already and other guides available. So you're never far away from having what you want. There's also a map that has all of the travel guide locations pinned to it, if that's more your thing. Each travel guide entry has a brief description, a nice image and file size data along with the download button. The countries or cities that you've downloaded already will appear at the top of the list in the My Guides section for quick access. There's also a drop-down menu for additional info like a map, your travel log and account information.

If you download a country guide, you have access to all the major cities as well. / © AndroidPIT/Triposo

When you launch one of the downloaded guides you'll be brought to the same starting screen you'd know from other Triposo guides if you've used them before. There's quick highlight suggestions if you're in a rush, a ''what's around me'' for location-based recommendations, popular destinations list, a healthy background on the area or country that includes a phrasebook, a quick reference ''practicalities'' section on money, transport, health and basic geographical information. You'll also get local weather, currency conversion and a useful phrase to get you started. And that's all on the starting page!

My favorite section is the background (left), and all the available destinations (right). / © AndroidPIT/Triposo

At the bottom of the start page there's a search function, quick shortcut to your travel log, world map, bookmarks and feedback option. The travel log, while not really my thing, is a super useful tool for keeping tabs on your destinations and thoughts whilst on the road. You can sign in with Facebook, add images, text and location information and share it all to your Facebook profile. But for me, the Travel log is a handy bonus on what is the core of the Travel Guide franchise: comprehensive touristic options in a foreign destination, combined with reviews and booking ability, all in one place.

The Travel Log lets you post memories of your trip to your Facebook page. / © AndroidPIT/Triposo

I opted to focus on Moscow for this review, and have weighed up Triposo's recommendations against those made to me by local Muscovites. While I didn't have any reason to use the St. Petersburg or Sochi sections of the Russia Travel guide, having them handy did mean I browsed them casually, which was a nice addition to an otherwise single-city travel guide. Getting a feel for an entire country is made much easier when you can casually compare the highlights of one city or region to another in the one app. Triposo's illustrated entries make visual comparisons that much easier too.

Focusing on a city brings you detailed information including hotel bookings. / © AndroidPIT/Triposo

The ''suggestions'' section of the Moscow Guide contains fairly obvious things to see, like the Kremlin, Church of Christ the Saviour, Pushkin Museum and St. Basil's Cathedral in Red Square. While these are things that any visitor to Moscow cannot really avoid, it's nice to have a visual along with maps, opening hours, Wikipedia entries, traveler reviews, pricing information and booking options. From browsing to researching to locating and booking, Triposo gives you everything you need to plan your time well. And it can all be done on the fly.

Suggestions are a little obvious, and some images (right) are pixelated. / © AndroidPIT/Triposo

The real value, in my opinion, comes in the smaller sections for events, nightlife, dining, tours and hotels. This is the kind of thing you'd normally need to rely on a website or travel agency for, but Triposo makes it all available in your pocket and offline. Having everything you could possibly need to know about a destination available in one place and offline is truly an impressive feat. Even with my local connections, the bars and restaurants I went to with born and bred Muscovites were covered in Triposo's Moscow guide, something I think is the mark of a well put together travel guide.

Pushing into the details is where Triposo's travel guides really excel. / © AndroidPIT/Triposo

Screen & Controls

The Triposo app is nicely laid out and is easy to use and navigate your way through. Going from the overview sections to sub-menus to specific entries, to background information to pricing and reviews to booking may offer quite a few different ''looks and feels'' but each one, while perhaps visually different to the last, is easy enough to work through. Despite there being several layers of depth in the app, you never feel lost and it's always a simple matter to back up to the previous section. Some sections really need photos added, for example in the Nightlife and Eat and Drink sections, and some images are badly pixelated because a tiny original has been blown up too big. As mentioned below, the app was sometimes stuttery and laggy in scrolling menus. All in all it seems like a good product not perfectly presented.

The wealth of avalable informtion all in one place is really exceptional. / © AndroidPIT/Triposo

Speed & Stability

The World Travel Guide was generally smooth and problem free, but I did experience quite a few issues I didn't find with the individual travel guide apps. For example, I had a crash the first time I launched the Travel Log and the first guide that I unpacked took a very long time (the two subsequent ones were super fast though). I also noticed some laggy behavior while scrolling through some of the lists, like when checking into a location in the Travel Log. In the popup Travel Log window I also lost my map location if I added a picture after a map and was then unable to re-add a location map. Also, the X in the search bar at the top of the travel guide search screen wouldn't delete my search term. So while everything works generally well, it's far from bug-free and polished.

From browsing to researching and booking, Tripsoo has it all. / © AndroidPIT/Triposo

Price/Performance Ratio

For a completely free app Triposo's travel guides really can't be beat, but I was surprised by the amount of buggy behavior I found in the World Travel Guide compared to the individual city guide I had used before. Perhaps it's just the Moscow section of the Russian country guide too, but I noticed a lot more missing photos and occasionally bad photos than I had previously. The sheer volume of the entries and depth of the app are quite impressive though, so if you can handle a little stuttering and the occasional crash, you really can't go past Triposo.  

The phrasebook is super handy (left), but there's quite a few missing pictures (right). / © AndroidPIT/Triposo

Final Verdict

Triposo impressed me with their Barcelona Travel Guide enough to install the World Travel Guide but the experience wasn't quite up to what I was expecting. While the content was just as good as I had hoped for, the unreliable performance of the app let the content down a little and I'm not sure if I'll keep the World Travel Guide for my next trip or just switch back to the individual city guides. As an Android user though, I know content trumps polish, and the occasional crash or lag is all part of the territory. If this were a paid app it might be a different story though. Nevertheless, if a few performance and presentation issues, which will undoubtedly be smoothed out in time, don't bother you then Triposo's World Travel Guide is a great all-in-one travel solution, with every step from browsing to booking handled nicely.

4 Ways To Own Bitcoins – A Beginner’s Guide

The days of striking gold with Bitcoin are probably long past, but that doesn’t mean that there’s no reason at all to get into Bitcoin. There’s a growing Bitcoin infrastructure, including regulated and audited exchanges, Bitcoin ATMs and so on; some retailers such as Overstock even take advantage of Bitcoin’s lower fees to offer discounts for Bitcoin purchases. Plus, Bitcoin seems to have weathered the storm triggered by Mt. Gox, showing a surprising maturity that might not have been present in years past. All these things hint that there may indeed be a future where Bitcoin is more than just a speculative plaything.

If you’re excited, or even the very least intrigued, by Bitcoin, you’ve probably thought once or twice about getting your feet wet and delving into the world of Bitcoin. There are a lot of things to be aware of before you take the plunge, but the first and most obvious question is, of course, getting your hands on the Bitcoins themselves.

Here are more Bitcoin-related posts you should also take a look at:

Recommended Reading: 10 Things You Need To Know About Bitcoins

There are four ways to get your Bitcoins, and we’re starting with buying them.

1. Buying Bitcoins

The most common way to buy and sell Bitcoins is on Bitcoin exchanges. This is probably the way most of you will want to get your Bitcoins, since there aren’t any extra costs and, barring a major crash, you’ll probably be able to make your money back if you choose to sell. Also, it’s worth pointing out that you can buy fractions of Bitcoins, so you don’t have to commit $650 or so to buy one Bitcoin.

(Image Source: Bitcoin Rumors)

Buying Bitcoins from exchanges is a straightforward process: make sure you have a Bitcoin wallet and then just create an account on any of the exchanges. Some may also ask for copies of personal documents and even utility bills in order to verify your identity.

There are two types of exchanges, fixed rate and real time exchanges:

1. Fixed rate exchanges: exchange sets the value, and all sales and purchases are conducted according to this fixed value. e.g. Coinbase

2. Real time exchanges: facilitates buying and selling by letting buyers and sellers set the maximum price they want to pay and the minimum price at which they want to sell. e.g. Kraken and Bitstamp

There are a lot of options out there, so here are a few tips on selecting an exchange:

• It’s best to choose an exchange that supports your preferred currency, so as to avoid having to convert your money twice over.
• If you’re patient and diligent, real time exchanges can get you much better deals when buying and selling Bitcoin.
• If speed is an issue then fixed rate exchanges might be preferable.

Bitcoin ATMs And LocalBitcoins

You can also buy and sell Bitcoins at the Bitcoin ATMs that are starting to gain traction in North America. Robocoin, for instance, has a few ATMs scattered across North America, and is expanding into countries such as Singapore, Australia and Italy this month. Lamassu also has a Bitcoin ATM in the works, although it has yet to be deployed.

(Image Source: Vancouver Sun)

If you don’t want to risk having your Bitcoins in an online exchange and there aren’t any Bitcoin ATMs near you, you could try looking on LocalBitcoins to see if there are any individual buyers or sellers based in the same city or country.

2. Mining Bitcoins

An alternative to buying Bitcoins directly to mine Bitcoins yourself. It’s an incredibly competitive endeavour, so you should only consider this path if you’re in it for the long term and are willing to keep upgrading your hardware.

(Image Source: Fotolia)

Mining will also eventually be made redundant by the fact that there will only ever be a maximum of 21 million Bitcoins in existence. This limit won’t be reached for a while yet, but it is something to bear in mind.

Mining Machines

Bitcoin mining is all about dedicated – and expensive – ASIC-based mining machines. There’s a large range of power available for potential purchase, from a relatively-entry level 5 gigahash per second (GH/s) machine such as the Bi•Fury to 2 terahash per second (TH/s) monsters like Cointerra’s TerraMiner IV. The TerraMiner IV, for instance, will mine about 1.8 Bitcoins a week at the current difficulty.

That may seem like a good deal, but be warned, Bitcoin mining difficulty is constantly increasing, and machines will mine less and less Bitcoins as time goes on.

Mining Costs

When mining Bitcoins, extra costs such as electricity have to be taken into account. The TerraMiner IV consumes roughly 2,100 Watts of power. Add that to the initial $5,999 cost of the TerraMiner IV and that 1.8 Bitcoins a week doesn’t seem like that much anymore, does it?

The biggest danger, though, is simply the risk of machines not getting delivered at all. The Bitcoin mining hardware marketplace is rife with scams and undelivered promises; if you’re adamant on buying mining hardware then you will definitely have to research all the available choices thoroughly before making a decision.

Here’s a quick introduction to mining, if you want to go down this particular path.

Cloud Mining

There’s another way to mine Bitcoins that doesn’t involve buying and running expensive Bitcoin mining hardware: cloud mining. As of now, the only site offering this service is CEX.IO. Basically, CEX.IO is a market that lets you buy and sell processing power in the form of GH/s.

The GH/s you buy mines for you, and all you need to do is to pay for the upkeep. It’s an interesting solution, and probably worth looking into if you want to avoid exchanges but don’t wan’t to buy your own mining hardware.

3. Exchanging Altcoins For Bitcoins

Option 3: Instead of buying or mining Bitcoins outright, you have the option of mining or buying Scrypt-based altcoins (such as Litecoin) and then trading those altcoins for Bitcoin on an exchange like Cryptsy or Bter. This method does mean you’ll have to keep track of the exchange rates quite dilligently, and act fast when the exchange rates are favorable.

Scrypt-based coins are comparatively much easier to mine than Bitcoin, and can even be mined using off-the-shelf AMD GPUs. They’re also relatively cheaper at the moment.

The current AMD flagship GPU, the R9 290X, costs upwards of $599, and you’re definitely going to need more than one as 1 R9 290X will only mine about 1 Litecoin a week, which at the time of writing, is only worth about a fraction of a Bitcoin (0.028 Bitcoin).

You’ll definitely need more than one card, and an increase in the number of cards comes with an increase in power consumption and heat.

(Image Source: LitecoinTalk)

There’s nothing that says you have to mine Litecoin, although it would probably be optimal to choose one particular altcoin and stick with it if you want to go down this path. At the time of writing, Dogecoin seems to be the altcoin to go for, but as with everything in the cryptocurrency landscape, this can change in the blink of an eye.

If you’re interested, here’s a comprehensive guide on how to mine Litecoin, including building the actual mining rig itself.

4. Free Bitcoins

If you just want to mess about and see what the fuss is about, ideally without having to spend a single cent, then some of the Bitcoin faucets might be of interest. These faucets give away a small number of Satoshis on a set schedule, maybe once a day or once every few hours. Some also encourage you to play games in order to win free Bitcoins. Examples of these Bitcoin faucets include Daily Free Bits, Bitcoiner and FreeBitco.in.

Don’t get overly excited, though; Satoshis are the smallest fraction of a Bitcoin, equivalent to 0.00000001 BTC. Daily Free Bits, for instance, gives out a maximum of 1200 Satoshis on a six-hour schedule. These faucets probably won’t help you buy that cool TV you’ve been eyeing on Overstock, but they’re a good way to get some Bitcoins to play around with, just to see what the fuss is about.

Conclusion

The method you choose will almost entirely depend on how much money you’re willing to spend, and how ready you are to commit to the cryptocurrency. Mining for Bitcoin is strictly the reserve of the dedicated, but Bitcoin exchanges and faucets provide a way for almost anyone to get in on the action. It’s not such a bad idea, really; when someone like Google’s Jared Cohen throws his weight behind the idea of Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies, you know that there’s probably something to all the madness.
