CONTROL YOUR ENTIRE ANDROID PHONE WITH YOUR VOICE....GOOGLE TRICKS

Image
Google has been working on its voice recognition technology ever since the days when you had to call a phone number with a Silicon Valley area code to dictate your query. As you can imagine, things have come a long way in the decade or so that has passed, to the point where we talk to our phones as if they were a person nowaday Google Voice Search—colloquially referred to as "Google Now"—can already be used to toggle system settings on Android, but a brand new beta app from the Mountain View search giant has taken this concept to the next level. Starting today, users can simply install this app, then control every aspect of their devices without even touching the screen. Google's New 'Voice Access' App Explained Google's new app is called "Voice Access," and while it's only just entering its beta testing phases right now, it already works amazingly well. The gist of things is rather simple—with Voice Access enabled, you'll see small nu

How to Hack Wi-Fi: Get Anyone's Wi-Fi Password Without Cracking Using Wifiphisher{miraclestarboy.com}

Do you need to get a Wi-Fi password but don't have the time to crack it ? In previous tutorials, I have shown how to crack WEP , WPA2 , and WPS , but some people have complained that cracking WPA2 takes too long and that not all access points have WPS enabled (even though quite a few do). To help out in these situations, I present to you an almost surefire way to get a Wi-Fi password without cracking— Wifiphisher . Steps in the Wifiphisher Strategy The idea here is to create an evil twin AP , then de-authenticate or DoS the user from their real AP. When they re-authenticate to your fake AP with the same SSID, they will see a legitimate-looking webpage that requests their password because of a "firmware upgrade." When they provide their password, you capture it and then allow them to use the evil twin as their AP, so they don't suspect a thing. Brilliant! To sum up, Wifiphisher takes the following steps: De-authenticate the user from their legitimate

HOW TO TEST FAULTY CHARGERS AND RECOMMEND GOOD ONES FOR YOUR ANDROID PHONE {miraclestarboy.com}

Not all smartphone chargers put out the same amount of current. The adapter in your car probably charges your phone a lot slower than the one plugged in at your bedside, and if you use wireless charging, it may be a bit slower still. Even considering the variance in listed amperage among your chargers, some still degrade with time and take longer to complete a charge. This can be due to a faulty or worn cable, or even a bad AC adapter. Finding the root cause of such issues, however, involves a lot of guesswork and is usually quite difficult. So, developer  Braintrapp  created an Android app that will allow you to see the exact amperage that a given charger is pumping out. With this information, it will be easy to determine which of your chargers or cables is no longer up to the task. Step 1: Install Ampere Braintrapp's app is only compatible with devices running Android Lollipop. If that's you, head to the Google Play Store and search for  Ampere . Alternatively, you c
