The tech which was nearly abandoned after the iPhone came has seen a revival and LG had decided to not stay behind either.<br /> The new G Pro Lite is an Android phone with a 5.5 inch display and a stylus, which sits in its own slot behind.<br /> The phone isn’t exactly on the cutting edge. Sure, it comes with a 5.5 inch large LCD display but it has qHD resolution of 960 x 540 pixels. Under the hood, you get a 1GHz MediaTek MT6577 dual-core processor with 1 GB RAM and 8 GB expandable storage.<br /> The phone will also have a dual-sim version.<br /> For connectivity, it uses Bluetooth 3.0, microUSB 2.0, Wi-Fi and GPS. 3140 mAh battery powers up the device. An 8 mp camera at the back with Full HD video and 1.3mp camera at the front complete the package.<br /> Here are the specs of the G Pro Lite:<br /> <ul> <li>Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean</li> <li>5.5 inch LCD display with qHD resolution</li> <li>161g heavy</li> <li>9.4mm thick</li> <li>1GHz dual-core MediaTek MT6577 processor</li> <li>1 GB RAM and 8 GB expandable storage</li> <li>8 megapixel rear-camera with 1080p Full HD video recording</li> <li>1.3 megapixel front-camera</li> <li>Bluetooth 3.0, microUSB 2.0, Wi-Fi, GPS</li> <li>3140 mAh battery</li> </ul> The phone will be available later this month. Pricing is still unknown but since this phone is looking to be placed in the mid-range sector, it shouldn’t be mind-bogglingly high.</div>

Google Malaysia Gets Hacked by Pakistani Hackers

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> Google’s homepage for its Malaysian ccTLD  (Country-code Top Level Domain), i.e. google.com.my and google.my got hacked today by Pakistani hackers.<br /> The group called MadLeets has accepted the responsibility of this major defacement through a message shown on Google’s home page for Malaysia.<br /> Apparently the hackers DNS poisoned the domains and redirected them to their own web-server. Both the domains were hacked till the filing of this report.<br /> Google hadn’t updated the DNS for the domains till the filing of this report. After DNS updation, domains will still remain inaccessible (or defaced) as name server propagation takes some time (from few minutes to 24 hours).<br /> Both the websites are to remain defaced till the original DNS are propogated across the web, which is likely to take at least 10-12 hours.<br /> It maybe recalled that a Turkish hacker had hacked Google Pakistan and 300 other Pakistani domains using the same technique.<br /> Here is the message left on defaced page:<br /> <blockquote> <div style="text-align: center;"> Google Malaysia STAMPED by PAKISTANI LEETS</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> We are TeaM MADLEETS</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> H4x0r HuSY – KhantastiC HaXor – H4x0rL1f3 – InvectuS – Shadow008 – r00x – Don – MindCracker – Dr.Z0mbie – phpBuGz – MaD GirL<br /> MaDCoDe – Sn!p3r_GS – DeXter – Neo Haxor – Darksnipper – Pain006 – b0x – R3DL0F – Sahrawi – 3thicaln00b – Hmei7 – MakMan – Sniffer – AL.MaX HaCkEr – Ch3rn0by1<br /> =======================<br /> www.MaDLeeTs.com<br /> | LeeTHaXor@Y7mail.com |<br /> =======================</div> <div style="text-align: center;"> Pakistan Zindabad</div> </blockquote> Check below the screenshot of hacked Google Malaysia:<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjT-8GCmAcSXXG1ezJ1UCVh_mmQqwigggGprs5kUM4ayAwcsJ8ACo4Z9EGR3cY_V_tOUF_89E9eo7y8JnRccb47MOUEa6mQIsHztvpLHcNJM4lTcGjfAfismJi0jZIgOu8hyQksIfv7Atg/s1600/Google-Malaysia.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjT-8GCmAcSXXG1ezJ1UCVh_mmQqwigggGprs5kUM4ayAwcsJ8ACo4Z9EGR3cY_V_tOUF_89E9eo7y8JnRccb47MOUEa6mQIsHztvpLHcNJM4lTcGjfAfismJi0jZIgOu8hyQksIfv7Atg/s1600/Google-Malaysia.jpg" /></a></div> </div>

Phonebloks: A Mobile Phone that will Last Forever

<div dir="ltr" style="text-align: left;" trbidi="on"> In a rapidly advancing technology culture, there are more electronic devices and machines than ever before. In fact, around 300 million computers and one billion cell phones are manufactured each year. <br /> People, now a days are lured by the advance technology and features offered by the Mobile Phone corporations in their Cell phones, which ultimately lead them to purchase a brand new mobile, whilst forsaking the former one.<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7jdjypfjqxUgldxAro-xQEGcM0qRfI18tChFWdHuODxtHiSN3uc8E7ZhVm5QK3tiI8tlJb4Sjp3X-UUx9frBBeXaY9qo_pXHceaS2rMnTM6VnKWoqkLZ1sjKDNTe5vlZAVR7neNGSFSw/s1600/1.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi7jdjypfjqxUgldxAro-xQEGcM0qRfI18tChFWdHuODxtHiSN3uc8E7ZhVm5QK3tiI8tlJb4Sjp3X-UUx9frBBeXaY9qo_pXHceaS2rMnTM6VnKWoqkLZ1sjKDNTe5vlZAVR7neNGSFSw/s1600/1.gif" /></a></div> Even Though, the Cell phone could serve for a decade if utilized well, but the way people use, it usually barely lasts a couple of years before it breakdown. <br /> Mostly there are a few specific parts that stops functioning, which compels us to throw away the entire Cell phone or simply put it in an old drawer since the great deal of progression in Mobile Phone technology has made the mobile phone so much affordable that it is perpetually a better approach to buy the new phone, rather than fixing the old one. <br /> Dave Hakkens of Phonebloks.com has come up with an innovative concept that might just revolutionize the way the Cell phones have been used so far. His profound idea would help to retain your old phone with yourself, whilst relishing the latest mobile phone features the same time. <br /> He named it, Phonebloks. <br /> <a href="http://www.phonebloks.com/" target="_blank">Phonebloks</a> is built with detachable bloks. The bloks are connected to the base which locks everything together into a solid phone, allowing the user to build their own mobile depending on individual requirements. If a blok breaks you can simply replace it; if it is becoming stale just upgrade it. <br /> As an example, let’s assume you have this 21MP camera blok but would want to upgrade to the latest 41MP camera – probably just released by some company – then you can simply replace the camera blok only, not the entire cell phone.<br /> <div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"> <a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcGcLrxIcxhiBXZBQSRk9u0X33avdDelex3UHtUWRiFoAAiV7EqChOxBvBW-L9jaqPR_qnGaXXiqlc3T5rtq9nV50LZ568W33l_Kkn98JlbELn5Jh-Kte-aQyB8A1FjEcl1ECOozPAT_I/s1600/2.gif" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgcGcLrxIcxhiBXZBQSRk9u0X33avdDelex3UHtUWRiFoAAiV7EqChOxBvBW-L9jaqPR_qnGaXXiqlc3T5rtq9nV50LZ568W33l_Kkn98JlbELn5Jh-Kte-aQyB8A1FjEcl1ECOozPAT_I/s1600/2.gif" /></a></div> It is just like an app store for hardware. In the store you buy your bloks, read reviews and sell old bloks. Small and large organizations develop and sell their bloks. You can buy a pre-assembled phone or assemble it yourself by picking the brands you want to support. The decision is yours. <br /> <a href="http://www.twitter.com/davehakkens" target="_blank">Dave Hakkens</a> – the brain behind the concept – had teamed up with Thunderclap – a crowd speaking platform that allows a singular cause or message to be shared in mass – to promote the idea, and have over 885,000 supporters already as I write. <br /> According to Dave Hakkens,<br /> <br /> <blockquote> “The market of electronic devices is growing rapidly, but it feels like we are building disposable stuff. Every time we make something new we completely throw away the old one. <br /> Imagine all the good displays, bluetooths and speakers we have thrown away. I love the connected world that we live in and it is time to set up a universal modular platform that companies work on together.”</blockquote> Phoneblok’s message will be blared out on October 29th with the goals of reaching a wide audience, comprising designers and engineers, who will jump on board to build the very first sustainable cell phone.</div>
