Nokia C1 Leaks Running ANDROID & Windows 10 Ahead Of Q4 2016 Launch

Nokia's return to the mobile space is happening end of 2016 with Nokia C1


A while back Nokia's CEO Rajeev Suri confirmed that although the firm had sold its smartphone business to Microsoft, the timeout on an agreement between the two companies would be expiring in Q4 2016 - at which point Nokia is free to act on its plans to re-enter the phone market. We've also heard whispers about the handset that will herald this return - the Nokia C1.
But as of April 4 it appears the C1 isn't the only Android device Nokia is working on; we now have details of an alleged mid-range device called the Nokia A1 (scrap that: the A1 was an HILARIOUS April Fool's joke). A render has leaked via Android Authority showing a somewhat similar design to the C1 (pictured further down this article). AA's "trusted insider" said this is a mid-range device and it appears to be running Nokia's Z Launcher over Android - a similar setup to the Nokia N1 Tablet. There's not much else to go on at the moment and we're left to simply ogle the new design and speculate on the specs.
F



Further details have leaked showcasing what we can expect from the Nokia C1. For starters, NokiaPowerUser received a render from a tipster, which is alleged to authentically show what the device will look like. It's not clear if this is a genuine Nokia render, or a render made by someone who has been briefed on (or seen) the device, and NPU encourages readers to take things with a pinch of salt. That said, it certainly looks the business, as we're used to seeing very polished designs from Nokia. It appears to have a very thin metal body and a coloured glass or polycarbonate back panel, however there is something a bit iPhone-like about the design that's sure to generate a few raised eyebrows.



According to the information handed to NPU, the Nokia C1 may come in two different size variants which will broadly share a spec sheet, but will have different camera tech, RAM, and onboard storage.
The display size is quoted at either 5.5in or 5in both with Full HD resolution. The 5in model will have 2GB of RAM with 32GB of storage space and an 8MP camera, while the larger 5.5in has 3GB RAM, a 13MP camera and 64GB onboard storage. Both will feature 5MP front-facing secondary cameras.
As for the software, it's going to be Android-based, although we'd expect it won't get away clean and will likely have Nokia UI stuff put on top. There's also going to be Windows 10 variants in select markets, allegedly.
For posterity, here's the quote from NPU's source:
Display: 5 inches, Full HD / 5.5 inches Full HDPlatform: Android and (Windows 10 in selected markets)Memory: 32 GB, 2 GB RAM or 64 GB, 3GB RAMCamera: 8 MP and 5 MP / 13 MP and 5 MP

How to stop automatic app updates on your Android

Whether we like it or not, our social media apps, games and e-mail tools are always being tinkered with by the people that wrote them. With auto updates, apps can change every day without the phone’s owner even knowing. App updates within the Google Play Store are a fact of life for Android users – but it doesn’t have to be that way. They can easily be turned off at your convenience, and you don’t need any programming skills to know how to stop updates on Android devices.

Why stop automatic app updates on Android phones?

One advantage of manually updating your apps is that you can find out when an app has been updated. That way, you also know when to check out its new features. Sometimes, automatic updates can lead you to miss interesting and useful new tools that could enhance your Android experience. Then there is the question of freedom. For many users, app updates are something that they would like to agree on a case by case basis, instead of allowing external companies to constantly add content to their devices.
If this sounds like you, help is at hand. It’s not hard to disable automatic app updates on any Android device. Just follow a few simple steps and you’ll be in control of your updates in no time.

How to stop updates on Android devices quickly and easily

The easiest way to disable automatic app updates on your device is to use the phone’s software. This should work for both Lollipop and Marshmallow users.

 

1. The first thing to do is to open the “Play Store” app on your device.
2. Now, look for a box containing three parallel lines next to the search field and click it.
3. A menu should now appear. Tap on the “Settings” option and then on the option titled “auto update apps” in the “general” section.
4. Here, you will have a range of options. Simply choose “do not auto update apps” and your phone is yours again.

Many app updates are important to maintain the latest versions and to keep your phone as secure as possible, so few people will want to totally stop updating. Instead, you can choose to receive notifications when new updates are available. Simply click on the “notifications” option on the “settings menu.”

If you have tried the steps described above and you are still experiencing difficulties understanding how to stop updates on Android phones, our technical support forums are the place to go for answers.

How to Enable Night Shift On Your iPhone

Bright blue-white light blasting in your face at night isn’t so great for your sleep or general health, but don’t worry: iOS now supports color shifting so you can warm up the light of your iPhone for easy nighttime reading.
There is a growing body of research that exposure to artificial light late into the evening, especially blue light like the crisp blue-white glow of our beloved gadgets, is a serious issue that effects our sleep cycles and general health.
A recent iOS update makes it dead simple to adjust the display of your iPhone and other iOS devices–no jailbreaking or extra software required. The new “Night Shift” mode adjusts the color temperature of your iPhone’s screen so that instead of the crisp blue-white light we’re all familiar with, the screen has a more candle-lit tint that’s less stimulating to our brains. It’s almost exactly like f.lux, a popular app available for PC and iOS, but it doesn’t require jailbreaking.
The lead image of this article shows two iPhone 6 units side-by-side with no Night Shift mode filter applied (at left) and the warmest Night Shift mode filter applied (at right). When viewed side-by-side, the difference is stark but we assure you when using a device with Night Shift mode on it feels very natural and comfortable on your eyes.
It’s dead simple to toggle on and off, you can set it to a time-based schedule, and you can even configure it to turn on automatically at sunset and off again at sunrise. Let’s take a look at what you need and how to set it up.

How to Enable Night Shift Mode

To take advantage of the new “Night Shift” feature all you need is an iOS device capable of updating to iOS 9.3 and it must have one of the newer 64-bit processors introduced in Apple’s 2013 product line. This means older devices that are eligible for the update (like the iPhone 4s) can’t take advantage of the feature.
Night Shift won’t work on the following older 9.3 eligible hardware:

• iPad 2, iPad 3rd/4th Gen, as well as the iPad Mini.
• iPhone 4s, 5, and 5c.
• iPod Touch 5G.

Night Shift will work on the following newer 9.3 eligible hardware:

• iPad Air and above, iPad Mini 2 and above, and iPad Pro.
• iPhone 5s and above.
• iPod Touch 6G.

When it doubt look up the hardware specs for your device; any iOS device with an A7 processor and above is capable of running Night Shift.
If your device is not already on iOS 9.3 navigate on your device to Settings > General > Software Update to update to the most current version.
In iOS 9.3, there are two ways to use Night Shift mode. You can toggle it on demand via the iOS control center, or you can set schedules so the screen gradually fades to Night Shift mode as the sun sets.
To toggle Night Shift mode, simply swipe up from the bottom of the screen to open the control center and tap on the new Night Shift icon in the center of shortcut row, as seen in the screenshot below.

A box will pop up with a quick summary of Night Shift mode and two buttons: “Turn On Until 7 AM” and “Schedule Settings…”; you can tap on the “Turn On” entry to immediately see what Night Shift looks like, or you can select “Schedule Settings” to jump into the Night Shift settings.

You can also access the Night Shift settings by opening the Settings app and navigating to Display & Brightness > Night Shift, but given how easy it is to open the control center and tap right into it, we’ll just hop there now. Select “Schedule Settings” to continue.
Here you can select “Scheduled” to pick your schedule or “Manually Enabled” to turn it on manually whenever you want. Like the “Turn On Until…” button we just saw, toggling the “Manually Enabled” option will turn it on for the rest of the day and then turn it off the next morning.  Since that’s self explanatory, let’s look at the scheduling feature. Tap on “Scheduled”.

A pre-populated schedule will pop out. Tap on it to make changes.

Here you can set Night Shift to automatically turn on when the sun sets, and turn off when the sun rises. If that doesn’t work for you, you can set your own schedule based on the time of day.
When you’re done, tap the blue “Night Shift” link in the upper left corner to return the main settings menu.

One final trick to highlight before we’re done. You can adjust the warmth of the screen by using the slider at the bottom of the Night Shift menu. “Less Warm” means you’ll get less of a red tint when Night Shift is on, while “More Warm” means the screen will look redder. If you tap on the Night Shift slider, it will show you what that level of warmth will look like when Night Shift turns on.

---

While we really should just be putting our gadgets down and getting a good night’s sleep, when we don’t (and we never do) features like Apple’s Night Shift are just the ticket for minimizing the impact of late night gadget benders.
