Protect yourself from Coronavirus (COVID-19)

The best way to prevent the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic illness is by avoiding your exposure to the virus. Clean your hands often, use soap and water for at least 20 seconds or a hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol to clean your hands more frequently.
Avoid touching your eyes, nose and mouth with unwashed hands or after being in the public.
Avoid close contact with people who are sick. Maintain a safe distance between yourself and other people if COVID-19 is spreading in your community.
Stay home if you’re sick and take help from local health authorities and medical professionals.
Make sure to cover your mouth and nose with a tissue or use the inside of your elbow when you cough or sneeze. Properly dispose the used tissues in the trash, and immediately clean your hands with soap and water or a hand sanitizer.
Wear a face mask if you are sick or if you are around other people (e.g., sharing a room or vehicle) and before you enter a healthcare provider’s office. Do not wear a face mask unless you are caring for someone who is sick.

Red LG Google Nexus 5's now live on Google Play



From the last couple of weeks back we have been consistently reporting you with the rumors and leaks of so called upcoming Red LG Google Nexus 5 flagship. The puzzle was then added with some real life photographs of the packages, which seemed to be pouring in from the company's warehouse, again showing it up in blood-red colors.

 Last week, courtesy of the Stateside's carrier Sprint's internal filing, which led us to the dates for today, 4th of February, 2014, and finally with some official press renders for the icing on the cake made our doubts clear about the unannounced Google's 2013 flagship handset in the new paint job, which was reportedly scheduled for a release to the Google Play Stores and Sprint Stores, around United States.



Accordingly, the American search giant has done exactly the same, going official by introducing the first Nexus device in Red color, alongside the Black and White options from the Play Store, moments back. The new phone will remain matching from it's internal specification side sporting the chassis in bloodshot. The newly painted smartphone will cost you $349 for the 16 gigs model and $399 for the 32 gigabytes variant.
But, it's not only United States, the United Kingdom based retailer, Carphone Warehouse has promised us to bring this very new Nexus 5's to the Great Britain country, as early as tomorrow at 6:00 AM in the morning, local. "The Nexus line has always been about doing things differently and consumers who share this philosophy have been our most loyal fans. We’re carrying this thinking over to the red Nexus 5, which we think will catch the eye of consumers who want to make an even bolder statement," said Dr. Jong-seok Park, President and CEO of LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company.

Ubuntu Touch drops support for three Nexus branded devices



One of the latest mailing list form the Canonical Ubuntu-phone comes in with a disappointing news, stating the support pull-down of their operating system Ubuntu Touch for Samsung Galaxy Nexus (maguro), Nexus 10 (manta) and 2012 Edition of ASUS manufactured Google Nexus 7 (grouper).

 The main reason behind this action was to concentrate more on their upcoming release 14.04 for phones and tablets with Android 4.4 KitKat. Also the software engineering costs for developing their free operating system that mattered.

 We also heard that the primary engineering platforms for the coming month will be working on specific emulators based on armhf and x86, that will basically bring the portables and desktops below the similar codes. The support for the latest Google flagship Nexus 5 will be relatively easy once Canonical's people are done with Android's version 4.4 KitKat and meeting up with their financial needs, said Ubuntu's exec, Alexander Sack in the mailing.

 Ubuntu Touch from now will only be officially available for LG made Google Nexus 4 (mako) smartphone and ASUS crafted 2013 Edition of Nexus 7 (razor) tablet. But folks loaded with Ubuntu Touch OS on the unsupported devices, you needn't worry, as it is not going to stop working from the moment, you will just not receive the latest updates or bug-fixes.

LG made Google Nexus 5 receives minor hardware tweaks



This happened previously too, South Korean LG manufactured Google's 2012 flagship Nexus 4 was also a part of this treatment. And now we have the company's latest model too undergoing minor hardware tweaks with their latest shipment.



Junior XDA-Developers forum member made in note that, due to several manufacturing defects, many of the users have chosen to send back their devices to receive a new one in it's place. The defects were basically described as, "Dancers and Noisy Buttons", "SIM card tray protruding" and "Cutting edge display frame".

 As the reports suggests, the new products are hitting the store shelves with better and larger speaker and microphone holes on the bottom and the buttons seems to be more firmly fixed. But according to the newly built screen, the new models come with a more yellowish display and a few green struck pixels. So if any of you have the new updated Google flagship, do let us know, how you feel.

We admit we are just not concentrating on any specific device in here, but as the LG made Google's next flagship Nexus 5's flu is all around, we have more on this South Korean and American collaborated device and this time it is the purported LG Google Nexus 5 retail box packaging.

 The new box from the manufactures looks something like the ones we have seen for the Nokia made Lumia devices, made more brighter with the blue color finish. What else we get to notice? We have already seen the handset show up in black a number of times, but now a new color option for the flagship appears, if we are not wrong on this, the smartphone is now pictured in white on this leaked box you see above.

Upcoming LG Google Nexus 5 shows up in a hands-on video



The ruler of the late rumors and leaks, where we have all we want in our hands, has just showed up yet again in a recent clear 1080p High Definition hands-on video on YouTube, yes, we are talking about the previously rumored and leaked, South Korean manufactured LG Google Nexus 5 D821 and codenamed Hammerhead, who's caught demoed on a video.

 What made a pause on our eyes in this seven minute video hands on with the upcoming LG Google Nexus 5, was the Android version running on the handset, which was KeyLimePie 5.0 and the most talked about Nexus logo on the back of the device was missing too. 

 But accordingly, we hope this to be an earlier prototype device from both the software and from the hardware side. Also the device packed a 'Not for Sale' wording on the back, which makes sure this is not a retail unit to be sold commercially. So apparently, you will need to watch the hands-on video now.

 Next up, the new translucent application drawer, which rearranges apps to a to new level, also seems to replace the old Gallery app to Google Photos.

 From the Settings page, we get to see couple of new add-on's, the 'Tap & pay', and a new updated 'Location mode', which offers 'High accuracy' that uses Global Positioning System (GPS), WiFi and mobile networks signals to estimate the current location. A 'Battery Saving' mode that enables WiFi and mobile networks to estimate the location. Last in the list, 'Device sensors', that only uses GPS to pinpoint the location on the device.

 Finally comes in the new lockscreen, where Google has added a camera icon to the right below corner, something we saw in the latest iOS 7 update for Apple. You can now swipe up the screen to access the camera from the lockscreen, where else swiping to left also exists. We expect to see both these Google creations soon this month.
