Microsoft Lumia 535 smartphone leaked online

NEW DELHI: Just a couple of days after Microsoft teased its first smartphone without Nokia branding, an upcoming Lumia model has been leaked online.



The leak comes courtesy China's Baidu.com and shows the dummy version of the upcoming Lumia 535, an upgrade to Lumia 530 smartphone.

Lumia 530 will reportedly have a 5-inch screen with 540x960p resolution and run on a 1.2GHz dual-core processor with 1GB RAM. This Windows Phone 8.1 device has a 5MP rear camera and VGA front camera.

Microsoft Lumia 535 is said to have 8GB internal storage, 1,900mAh battery and dual sim functionality. It is rumoured that only one sim will support 3G on this handset.

Interestingly, the dummy model of Lumia 535 shown in the leaked images has curved corners. The image teased by Microsoft recently also showed a phone with curved corners, so it is likely that the company will launch Lumia 535 on November 11.

KL Rahul earns maiden call-up, Raina back in India Test squad

Suresh Raina last featured in a Test match more than two years ago against New Zealand.

KL Rahul and Karn Sharma were the two new faces in India's Test squad, while Suresh Raina and Umesh Yadav were recalled as the selectors named a 19-member squad for the tour of Australia next month. There was no place for Stuart Binny, Gautam Gambhir, Pankaj Singh and Ishwar Pandey, who were part of the tour of England in July-August.

Following the failed experiment with Gautam Gambhir in England this past summer, the selectors decided to lock in Karnataka batsman Rahul, 22, as the third opener after a prolific season with the bat, exemplified by his twin centuries for South Zone in the Duleep Trophy final played at the Feroz Shah Kotla recently. There was a case for a surprise call-up for Virender Sehwag in some closed circles, as well as Rahul's Karnataka's teammate Robin Uthappa, but the selectors chose to go with the younger option.

Rahul's excellent form has continued from last year's Ranji Trophy season, where he finished as the second-highest run-getter with 1033 runs at an average of 68.86, and was also a part of India A's tour of Australia earlier this year, where he performed reasonably well.

India's other concern during their 1-3 Test series defeat in England was the uncertainty of the No. 6 spot, where Rohit Sharma and Binny were both tried. While Binny was left out of the squad, Raina, who last played a Test match more than two years ago, was recalled following his superb run of form in the shorter formats, and his vast experience of having played in overseas conditions. Rohit, who played a solitary Test during the tour of England, was retained after recovering from a shoulder injury.

With the BCCI confirming that captain MS Dhoni would miss the first Test at Brisbane starting on December 4 owing to an injury in his right thumb, the selectors named two wicketkeeper-batsmen as back-up options, while announcing Virat Kohli as stand-in captain. Wriddhiman Saha and Naman Ojha, who were both part of the England touring party - the latter was flown in after Saha injured himself - were named in the squad. Ojha's selection follows his sizzling form for India A on the tour of Australia, where he had scored a double hundred and two centuries, and followed it up with a double century for Central Zone in the Duleep Trophy semi-final.

In the bowling department, Umesh Yadav returned to the squad after showing impressive form in the ongoing ODI series against Sri Lanka, making up a five-member pace bowling attack, but there was no place for England returnees Pankaj Singh and Ishwar Pandey. Pandey was part of the India's last two Test tours to England as well as New Zealand, but was excluded without earning a Test cap. Pankaj was left out after cutting a poor figure in the two Tests he played against England, and was ignored despite performing well in the Duleep Trophy final.

The selectors also decided to pick a third spinner - legspinner Karn Sharma - to add variety to India's bowling attack. Railways spinner Sharma, 26, impressed during India's warm-up game against the touring Sri Lankans, and was named ahead of the likes of Amit Mishra and Pragyan Ojha.

India squad for Australia tour: MS Dhoni (capt/wk), Virat Kohli, Shikhar Dhawan, Murali Vijay, KL Rahul, Cheteshwar Pujara, Ajinkya Rahane, Rohit Sharma, Suresh Raina, Wriddhiman Saha (wk), Naman Ojha (wk), Ravichandran Ashwin, Karn Sharma, Ravindra Jadeja, Bhuvneshwar Kumar, Mohammed Shami, Ishant Sharma, Umesh Yadav, Varun Aaron

Rahul reaps the reward for consistency

© PTI

For his ability to score heavily on the big stage, KL Rahul has been rewarded with a maiden India call-up.

The Duleep Trophy final played at the Feroz Shah Kotla couple of weeks earlier was a proving ground for several players to get themselves noticed for the India selection. While all eyes were on Robin Uthappa, who had scored a brilliant 120 during the Duleep Trophy semi-final at Lahli, and Naman Ojha, who had hit two double hundreds and two centuries in his last four first-class games, it was KL Rahul who stole the limelight.

Playing in his first Duleep Trophy game on the back of a stellar Ranji season where he finished as the second-highest run-getter with 1033 at an average of 68.86, Rahul became only the eleventh player in the tournament's history to score a century in each innings of the final.

The buzz at the time was about selection and the close fight for the third opener's slot for the Australia tour had many tongues wagging. With Gautam Gambhir's failure in England, it was certain that selectors had their eyes set on the younger lot. Virender Sehwag's name sprung up quite a few times, but the young guns where clear favourites and eventually, Rahul made the cut rather emphatically.

Rahul, 22, has a knack of scoring big when it matters the most and the twin hundreds in the final (185 and 130) against Central Zone exemplified the big match temperament he possesses. And to add further, he had hit a century in last season's Ranji Trophy final and had contributed a match-winning 93 against Pakistan in the Under-23 ACC Emerging Team Cup final in Singapore.

An elegant batsman, Rahul probably played the best two knocks of his career at the Kotla in presence of the national selectors. Going up against the likes of Pankaj Singh and Ishwar Pandey, both of whom were part of India's Test squad in England, it was a fantastic statement to make.

The knock of 185, on a batting friendly day, was sublime at its best. He was free flowing and seldom was he troubled by the pacers. He took on the spinners with ease and more importantly did not lose focus after reaching the triple-figure mark, setting his eyes on the double. The 130-run knock in the second innings, on a wicket that became a bit tough to bat on, Rahul displayed his gritty temperament and toughed it out in the middle before dominating the bowling once again. The common strand in both the innings was his aggression that did not allow the bowlers to get on top of him and his ability to absorb the pressure.

In Australia, Rahul will be an understudy to both Shikhar Dhawan and Murali Vijay and the conditions there will pose a very different challenge to him. By his own admission, he has the skill set and it will be about adapting and handling the pressure of playing cricket at the highest level that will determine his success. He has already toured Australia earlier this year with India A, scoring 101 runs from two first-class games.

The other notable inclusion in the squad is legspinner Karn Sharma who has already played a Twenty20 International for India in England. An average performer in the longer format of the game, the 27-year-old has taken 66 wickets at an average of 28.87 in 37 first-class matches and even though it will be very unlikely that he will get a game Down Under, his selection hints at the fact that the selectors are willing to experiment. A wrist-spinner is always a better wicket-taking option than a finger spinner and who knows, a good practice game against Cricket Australia's Invitational XI might even prompt the management to try him out.

Selectors look to the future with India's Test squad

© Getty Images

As far as the reserve opening batsman's slot goes, in blooding the talented KL Rahul the selectors are looking at the future.

They don't speak much in public and only a terse media release lists those picked by the Board of Control for Cricket in India's selection committee.

On Monday, the BCCI release on the team chosen to tour Australia for the Test series next month went a step ahead and spoke about the skipper Mahendra Singh Dhoni, recovering from a thumb injury, being rested for the first Test as a 'prophylactic' (meaning preventive or precautionary) measure to ensure optimum recovery.

But seeing an unusual complement of three wicketkeeper-batsmen in the touring party - Wriddhiman Saha and Naman Ojha are the others - is indicative that there are no guarantees about Dhoni's fitness being close to Test level during the series. It also suggests that the think tank may be unwilling to risk aggravating his injury ahead of the World Cup.

Clearly, unlike on the England trip, the tour selectors have been given a good choice of pacemen to pick from among Umesh Yadav, Varun Aaron, Ishant Sharma and Mohammed Shami to play alongside swing bowler Bhuvneshwar Kumar. The combination they choose will determine how quickly India's bowlers can claim 20 wickets in each Test.

Seam bowlers Pankaj Singh and Ishwar Pandey, who were on the tour of England, may find hard done by but that is the nature of the selection beast, especially when the belief appears to be backing the faster Umesh Yadav. Then again, this may well be a tacit admission by the selectors that they erred in their choice of seam and swing bowlers on that tour.

Karn Sharma's pace and bounce could be excitingly handy in Australia but whether the tour selectors will look to displace left-arm spinner Ravindra Jadeja and, for that matter, offspinner R Ashwin to include the Railways legspinner remains to be seen. He could be an exciting option, a bowler who the Australians have not played before, notwithstanding their stint in the IPL.

As far as the reserve opening batsman's slot goes, in blooding the talented KL Rahul the selectors are looking at the future but by recalling left-handed Suresh Raina to the Test squad they are looking for some kind of experience when it comes to the reserve middle-order batsman.

There was some talk about recalling Virender Sehwag in place of Gautam Gambhir, whose footwork in England was vertical rather than rooted to the ground. But the selectors have done well to give the talented, consistent and deserving Rahul the task of learning the job in one of the most competitive environments in world cricket.

Raina's return was a foregone conclusion after Team Director Ravi Shastri spoke openly about wanting to see the left-hander in the Test squad. Even if he does not immediately push for a slot in the middle-order where Cheteshwar Pujara, Virat Kohli, Ajinkya Rahane and Rohit Sharma are the preferred options, his being in Australia can help him in the World Cup.

But, purely from the four-Test series point of view, the selectors have done well to pick a squad of 19 from which the tour management will have to choose the best XI for each Test. That and the performances of the chosen XI will determine how combative India are in the Test matches in Australia.

Samsung Galaxy S5, S5-LTE get price cuts in India

Samsung Galaxy S5 is now listed at Rs 34,900, marking a drop of Rs 2,600; Galaxy S5-LTE now costs Rs 36,900, down from Rs 40,300.

NEW DELHI: Samsung has cut the prices of its Galaxy S5 and S5-LTE smartphones in India yet again.



The Galaxy S5 smartphone, which was launched in April this year at Rs 51,500, is now listed at Rs 34,900, marking a drop of Rs 2,600. In October this year, the smartphone's price had been reduced from Rs 43,250 to Rs 37,500.

The smartphone features a 5.1-inch Super AMOLED display with Full HD resolution and runs on Android 4.4 with TouchWiz UI. It is powered by the 2.3GHz quad-core Snapdragon 801 processor with 2GB RAM and sports a 16MP rear camera on the back. It was the first Samsung smartphone to feature the fingerprint scanner and heart rate monitor.



Samsung Galaxy S5-LTE, which features support for faster 4G data downloads than Galaxy S5, now costs Rs 36,900. This marks a reduction of Rs 3,400 from its previous price tag of Rs 40,300. The South Korean manufacturer had given a price cut to Galaxy S5-LTE in October as well.


The two smartphones face increasingly tough competition in the market, not just from rivals like HTC One (M8) and Sony Xperia Z2 but also from their own siblings like Galaxy Alpha and Note III.

Samsung is the leader in the Indian smartphone market, but companies like Micromax, Motorola and Xiaomi continue to cut its lead at a fast clip, market data suggests.

Major smartphone makers usually launch a mini version of their top smartphones, for example Sony Xperia Z1 Compact and HTC One mini 2 being the smaller versions of Xperia Z1 and One (M8), respectively.

But Samsung has taken this trend a step further by launching as many as seven variants of Galaxy S5. And we are not even counting the rumoured Galaxy S5 Prime and Galaxy S5 Neo.

Here’s a look at the seven variants of Samsung Galaxy S5 available in the market today:

Cognizant Q3 net up 11.2%; raises 2014 revenue forecast

Cognizant said its net profit has grown 11.2% to $355.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2014.

NEW YORK: IT services major Cognizant Technology Solutions Corporation said its net profit has grown 11.2% to $355.6 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2014, on the back of growth in financial services and emerging countries.

This is against a net profit of $319.6 million in the corresponding quarter last year, Cognizant said in a statement.

The US-based firm saw its revenues rising 12% to $2.58 billion in the quarter under review from $2.3 billion in the same period last year.

Cognizant expects its revenues in the October-December 2014 quarter to be between $2.61 billion and $2.64 billion.

The firm has also revised its revenues forecast for the year to be between $10.13 billion and $10.16 billion (higher by 14.5-14.9%), excluding any impact from the acquisition of TriZetto.

While announcing its first quarter results, Cognizant had forecast its 2014 revenue to be at least $10.3 billion, higher by 16.5% from 2013. However, at the end of June quarter, it lowered its outlook to at least 14%.

In fiscal 2013, Cognizant's revenue stood at USD 8.843 billion, up 20.4 per cent from 2012.

"Our overall demand environment remains strong and our results this quarter highlight that we are competing, winning and executing transformational engagements for clients in various industry segments globally," Cognizant President Gordon Coburn said.

Cognizant added about 12,300 people during the quarter. "There is a tremendous opportunity in the marketplace as the advent of new digital technologies, global economic pressures, and an evolving regulatory environment force businesses across all industries to change and adapt faster than ever before," Cognizant chief executive officer Francisco D'Souza said.

Cognizant is ideally positioned to help clients worldwide address these competitive challenges with end-to-end solutions that address their dual mandate of improved efficiency and of innovation using the latest social, mobile, analytics, cloud and sensor technologies, he added.

"Our balance sheet remains strong as cash and short-term investments increased during the quarter by almost $500 million to $4.6 billion," Cognizant chief financial officer Karen McLoughlin said.

Later this quarter, Cognizant anticipates utilising $1.7 billion of this cash, in addition to $1 billion of floating rate debt through a syndicated term loan, to fund the previously announced acquisition of TriZetto, McLoughlin added.

Future search engine will enhance your thought process: Google's Amit Singhal

Google search guru Amit Singhal believes the search-engine of the future will be "a perfect personal assistant" — knowing what you want, when you want it.

NEW DELHI: Google search guru Amit Singhal believes the search engine of the future will be "a perfect personal assistant" — knowing what you want, when you want it.

Although people can travel to the moon's surface without leaving their armchairs, search engine developments so far are just "baby steps" to "the holy grail of search", Singhal told AFP in a rare interview.

Singhal, 44, has already brought transformational change to the internet since he took over development of Google's search engine in 2000, when the web was still relatively limited and access achingly slow.

The "Google fellow" — the title the California company bestows on its top thinkers — sees a world of "knowledge on demand" before people even know they want it, as speech recognition, language understanding, touch technology and computer advances combine.

The search engine of the future will be the "perfect personal assistant giving you benefit of all technical knowledge, enhancing your thought processes", he said.

Singhal dismisses criticism by some scientists that having all the information at people's fingertips could create lazy minds, shortening attention spans and reducing capacity to remember information.

"People always worry about change," he said. "We have to teach people to swim with the flow of technology, not swim against it," he said.

"There were worries about the Gutenberg printing press — that it would destroy the beauty of the spoken word, but we're far better off with the knowledge it's brought," he said.

"People worried TV would stop people reading books but that hasn't happened," he noted.

"The internet has made people more productive — removing barriers to getting information," he said.

Search is at the core of Google, which fields millions of questions a day in more than 110 languages.

Singhal's vision has helped make it the most visited search engine globally, as well as one of the planet's most profitable companies.

"These are immensely exciting times" with search technology "going through an exponential period" of change, he said.

"Ultimately I believe this will give mankind healthier, happier lives, not just through wearable technology, but the sum total of information that will be within our reach to improve lives."

When Singhal talks about his technological inspiration and the future of search engines, he smiles and says: "Star Trek."

Singhal watched the popular science-fiction show obsessively growing up in India's Himalayan state of Uttarakhand.

The series — Singhal viewed repeats so often he knew the dialogue by heart — gave him a dream about a future where a computer like the one on the starship Enterprise could provide any information immediately.

And life has given Singhal, a graduate of the prestigious Indian Institute of Technology and Cornell University, the chance to help develop just that kind of technology.

"I imagined a future where a starship computer would be able to answer any question I might ask, instantly."

"We're closer to that dream than I ever thought possible during my working life," said Singhal, adding that he was "blessed to do something I love".

Singhal is in charge of what Google calls its "search algorithms", which decide how best to retrieve information and answer questions.

His team tests thousands of search algorithms every year, adjusting, tweaking and inventing. The key is ranking information, giving the most pertinent answer first.

The more Google keeps users happy, the better it is able to beat competition from Yahoo and other sites, and also draw lucrative advertisement to its pages.

Just as USS Enterprise Captain James Kirk never had to type a question into the spaceship's computer, asking it questions aloud instead, Singhal sees searches heading in the same way with better voice recognition.

Singhal was in New Delhi to announce launch of Google's new Hindi-language content website.

Nearly all of India's 198-million English speakers are already online and Google hopes the local-language website will add 300-million more Internet users.

Singhal said the website in Hindi, India's most widely spoken language, would make the internet "more accessible for people like my mom" who's more comfortable in Hindi than in English.

WhatsApp voice calls round the corner

Set of voice calling icons discovered in WhatsApp APK version 2.11.426.

(Image Courtesy: PhoneArena)

NEW DELHI: It has long been known that WhatsApp will introduce voice calling feature in its app soon, but there is no word on when it will be rolled out. However, it seems that the launch of this feature may be imminent.

Now, tech website PhoneArena has reported that one of its readers has discovered a set of voice calling icons in the app. The icons were discovered in WhatsApp APK version 2.11.426 in a folder named 'drawable-hdpi-v11 & v4'.

The delay in rolling out voice calling feature is due to technical hurdles that WhatsApp developers are facing.

The voice calling feature, which was recently confirmed by CEO Jan Koum, will bring Whatsapp in direct clash with apps like WeChat, Viber and Line that already allow users to make calls and send messages. Whatsapp is the biggest instant messaging app in the world, with 600 million active users in August 2014. In India, it has 70 million active users, according to business head Neeraj Arora.

However, Koum has said WhatsApp's voice calling function will not clash with Facebook Messenger's voice calling feature, as it will be strictly a mobile-only service. On the other hand, Facebook Messenger lets users make calls on iPads and other tablets over Wi-Fi also, not just mobile phones.

Facebook has acquired WhatsApp for $21.8 billion.

13-year-old Indian-origin boy gets Intel funding for low-cost Braille printer

At the age of 12, Shubham Banerjee, closed an early-stage funding round with Intel Capital for his prototype for a low-cost Braille printer.

HUNTINGTON BEACH, CALIFORNIA: If Shubham Banerjee cannot lay claim to being the world's youngest venture capital-backed entrepreneur, he comes very close.

Banerjee was 12 years old when he closed an early-stage funding round with Intel Capital, the company's venture capital arm, last month for his prototype for a low-cost Braille printer. Since then, the San Jose, California middle-schooler has turned 13.

That's young, even by the standards of Silicon Valley, where many venture capitalists unapologetically prefer to fund youth over experience.

Young entrepreneurs usually have reached at least their mid-teens when they hit it big. Nick D'Aloisio, founder of online news aggregator Summly, was 17 when Yahoo bought his company last year for $30 million.

Brothers John and Patrick Collison, behind payments service Stripe, were 16 and 19 when they sold an earlier business to a Canadian company for $5 million.



After reading a fundraising flyer about the blind, Banerjee felt inspired to turn a high-tech version of Legos, the toy building blocks, into a device that could print in Braille. One day, he wants to mass-produce the printers and sell them for about $350, far less than Braille printers cost now.

This past summer, he worked on incorporating an Intel Edison chip, a processor aimed at hobbyists, into the printer. In September, Intel invited him to a conference in India to highlight uses for Edison. There, he got a big surprise.

Intel executive Mike Bell announced from the conference stage that the giant chipmaker would invest in his company, Braigo Labs. Until then, his funding consisted of the $35,000 his parents gave him.

"I turned back to my dad, and said, 'What did he just say?'" Banerjee recalled. "I was all over the place."

Banerjee and a spokesman for Intel Capital declined to disclose the size of the investment. A person familiar with the matter said it was a few hundred thousand dollars. He plans to use it to build a better prototype of the printer and test it with more groups for the blind.


After the announcement, Banerjee had to bone up on unfamiliar terms such as "venture capital."

He also needed to convince adults to co-sign his funding and patent documents. Among the company officials he turned to: Braigo's president, his mom, Malini.

Banerjee says he gets mostly As and Bs as a student at the Champion School in San Jose, California. Teachers have given him time off to attend events like the conference in India and the Intel Global Capital summit this week in Huntington Beach, California. He catches up on school work on weekends, he says.

This is the second Intel investment connected to the Banerjee family. His dad, Neil, works for Kno, an education start-up that Intel bought last year.

While many young entrepreneurs who win venture-capital cash end up ditching their education to focus on their businesses full time, Banerjee says he won't take that path.

"It's an after-school thing," he says.

Samsung Galaxy S6 specifications leaked online

Samsung has been working on the Galaxy S6 under the codename ‘Project Zero’ as it aims to start from scratch in order to make it ‘the best Galaxy S flagship yet’.

NEW DELHI: Samsung usually unveils its flagship Galaxy S device early in the year. With 2014 almost coming to an end, rumours related to the company's next flagship have already surfaced.

According to SamMobile, the South Korean tech giant has been working on the Galaxy S6 under the codename 'Project Zero' as it aims to start from scratch in order to make it 'the best Galaxy S flagship yet'.

Although the screen size was not mentioned among the rumoured specs, the device is expected to feature a Quad HD (2560x1440p) display, just as Note 4. Another similarity between the two devices will be the camera sensor, IMX240, which could be either a 16MP or 20MP lens. The front camera will be upgraded to 5MP in alignment with the recently launched Galaxy A series.

In terms of storage, Samsung Galaxy S6 will come in three variants — 32, 64 and 128GB, doing away with the 16GB model. The report did not mention the amount of RAM that the model will have.

The device is expected to be powered by Exynos 7420 octacore processor, which will include four Cortex A53 and Cortex A57 cores, each. The device is also said to come in a Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 processor variant. Both models will feature 64-bit chipset architecture.

The report also says that Samsung Galaxy S5 will be more battery efficient than other smartphones in the market as it will use a Broadcom chip that puts the GPS as well as other sensors on the same chip, letting the phone process data faster.

Samsung Galaxy S6 is still in the early stages of development and there have been no leaked images of the device yet. The smartphone is likely to be unveiled globally late February or early March next year.

Google Nexus 5 battery woes trouble users

Google Nexus 5 users who are facing battery problems say that their work suffers on a regular basis due to the smartphone’s battery woes, and this erratic battery defeats the purpose of having a smartphone.

NEW DELHI: Though it is nearly a year old, LG-manufactured Google Nexus 5 is still ranked among the best value-for-money smartphones in India. However, a number of those 1.72 lakh in India who have purchased the smartphone since its launch in November 2013 are bitter about Nexus 5 developing serious battery problems within a few months.

One of our colleagues has been using Google's Nexus 5 for over five months now. She often charges her phone by connecting it to her laptop when at work. Over time, the battery life of her smartphone has rapidly degraded. She has to plug in the charger at least thrice in 24 hours.

A few days ago, when she connected her Nexus 5 smartphone to her laptop in order to charge the battery, her phone's charging duct heated up. "When I tried to remove and re-plug my smartphone, I noticed that the USB and charging duct of the phone had become really hot and a strong burning smell was coming out of the charging port," she told us.



"I immediately switched off my smartphone and waited a while for it to cool down. Approximately 30 minutes later, I tried to connect it to a colleague's MacBook Air and the same thing happened — the charging duck heated up again and the burning smell continued."

In order to save her phone from any further damage, she switched it off. When she took it to a nearby LG service center, the person in-charge inspected the phone and told her that there was has been a 'short-circuit' in the charging duct that caused the heating up and the burning smell.

"Since the warranty doesn't cover such 'incidents', I had to pay to get the part replaced," she told us.

Emails sent to LG and its PR agency for their clarification on Nexus 5 battery woes did not even elicit a response.

Her's is just one among the many battery problems faced by Nexus 5 users we spoke to. Though not all complained of a similar issue, some Nexus 5 buyers complained that within a few months, the battery stopped charging beyond 50-60% even while the phone is plugged in overnight. Yet others said that the battery charge goes down from 100% to 35-40% within a couple of hours.

Mukti Lamba, an actuarial analyst, told us, "My Nexus 5 takes a lot of time to get fully charged... what's worse is that it gets discharged within a couple of hours of being fully charged. Charging via USB is very slow... In short, it has to remain on charger for around 16 hours a day."



Bhavna Sharma, Gurgaon-based manager in a content firm, too has been facing similar problems with her Nexus 5. She told us, "I am facing quite a lot of battery issues. The battery discharges very quickly. I have to charge my phone at least 3-4 times a day."

Jai Virk, marketing professional at a Mercedes dealership, said that his Nexus 5 also needs to be recharged at least thrice a day. He also said that apps crash 4-5 times a day on his phone and the phone restarts automatically 10-12 times a day. Since the phone is a gift from his mother, he is reluctant to change it, but said that unless the upcoming Android L update fixes things, he will be compelled to buy a new phone.

Daksh Bahuguna, a Goa-based industrial designer, told us, "My Nexus 5's battery lasts only about 5-6 hours on regular usage. I have even faced the problem of battery draining out completely overnight and me waking up to a switched-off phone. The charging time varies between 45 minutes to 4 hours sometimes. I have to charge my phone at least twice a day, if not three, before hitting the sack."

Google Nexus 5 users who are facing these battery problems say that their work suffers on a regular basis due to the smartphone's battery woes, and this erratic battery defeats the purpose of having a smartphone.

However LG India claims that the number of people coming to service centres regarding Nexus 5 battery issues is "very small".

Google India, on its part, claimed in an emailed comment that the company has "not heard of anyone facing issues with the Nexus 5 battery life".

Notwithstanding the ignorance feigned by Google and LG, the problem does not seem to be limited to the Nexus 5 model sold in India alone. There are many Nexus 5 users who have complained about battery issues on various internet forums.

A Reddit user going by the screen name Wesssy wrote: "I can't figure out why my battery life is so bad, even with using BetterBatteryStats, GSam Battery Monitor, and Wakelock Detector. Today's battery has 46% remaining, with only 56 minutes of screen on time."

On an Android Central forum, another user named PBC said, "Over the past few nights, I've noticed my Nexus 5 has been draining its battery like a sieve. Literally upwards of 30-50% overnight, with the screen off. Last night, I turned off WiFi before I went to bed at around 10 pm and shut down any apps in the multi-task window that were open (not sure if that does anything), battery was at 59%. Woke up around 5, checked the battery, and it was at 17%."

A large-scale Nexus 5 battery problem first cropped up in March this year with the release of Android 4.4.2 update for the phone. After the release, "mm-qcamera-daemon" process drained the battery life by keeping the phone's camera turned on even when it was not in use, thus consuming resources via CPU cycles.

Android 4.4.3 patch for Nexus 5 was meant to fix this issue, but it was reported that some units still suffer from short battery lives. It is now said that Google is readying a final fix for this issue with the Android 5.0 (Lollipop) build that is likely to be released next month.

Google has started the rollout of Android 5.0, Lollipop to select devices. The new OS brings with it a number of visual changes and adds new features. Here’s a look at 10 new features of Android Lollipop.

Microsoft and Dropbox announce surprise partnership for Office integration

Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella's move to join hands with Dropbox shows he is willing to partner with companies instead of compete with them.

Microsoft has cozied up to Dropbox with a new partnership.

Soon you'll be able to easily access, save, share and collaborate on your Office 365 documents stored on Dropbox without leaving Office.

Office 365 is Microsoft's paid cloud version of Microsoft Office.

But wait, there's more. Dropbox will also be available as an option for Microsoft's freebie version of Office in its cloud, known as Office Online.

And this isn't a Windows-only deal. You'll be able to use your Dropbox account inside of Office on your iPhone, iPad or Android tablet.

It's yet another symbol of the kinder, gentler Microsoft under new CEO Satya Nadella. He's willing to partner with companies instead of compete with them, and customers win.

Office 365 comes with its own cloud storage, called OneDrive — and now OneDrive offers an unbeatable deal: the paid version comes with unlimited storage.

But Dropbox is a major go-to cloud storage option for Office documents, particularly those using older, not-cloud versions. Dropbox users have currently stashed away more than 35 billion Office files, which allows them to collaborate on documents with co-workers without buying into Microsoft's cloud version of Office.

So this partnership is super smart on Microsoft's part. It's another on ramp to encourage people to ditch their old version of Office and sign up for the fancy new cloud version, and they can still use Dropbox with their existing files and and work with colleagues just like they are used to doing. And of course, there's now an extra incentive to switch over to OneDrive.

Microsoft will make more money on its cloud app over time, since users must pay annually for it. But it's not a bad deal for users, because you get more features for the extra money, such as the ability to install the software on multiple devices.

Dropbox support will be available to Office 365 users in 2015, Microsoft says.

This partnership isn't unique, by the way. Dropbox competitor, Box, has been working with Office 365 since last month.

LG, Google ink 10-year patent deal

LG Electronics said that it had signed a long-term cross-licence deal with Google as the South Korean firm tries to expand its smartphone business.

SEOUL: LG Electronics said that it had signed a long-term cross-licence deal with Google as the South Korean firm tries to expand its smartphone business.

The deal covers patents on a "broad range of products and technologies" that already exist and will be filed in the next 10 years, the two firms said in a joint statement.

Samsung — LG's home rival and the world's top smartphone maker — earlier struck a similar deal with Google in January.

"LG values its relationship with Google, and this agreement underscores both companies' commitment to developing new products and technologies that enhance consumers' lives," said JH Lee, executive vice president and head of the LG's intellectual property centre.

Almost all of LG's popular smartphones, tablet computers and smartwatches are powered by Android software made by the US tech giant.

LG — currently the world's fourth-largest smartphone maker — struggled for years with sluggish sales after making a late entry into the market.

But it recently showed signs of revival with its flagship G3 smartphones, while its bigger rival Samsung saw profits sag.

LG earlier reported an 87% jump in third-quarter net profit as the previously loss-making handset unit saw profits surge in a big turnaround.

13-year-old Indian-origin boy gets Intel funding for low-cost Braille printer

At the age of 12, Shubham Banerjee, closed an early-stage funding round with Intel Capital for his prototype for a low-cost Braille printer.

HUNTINGTON BEACH, CALIFORNIA: If Shubham Banerjee cannot lay claim to being the world's youngest venture capital-backed entrepreneur, he comes very close.

Banerjee was 12 years old when he closed an early-stage funding round with Intel Capital, the company's venture capital arm, last month for his prototype for a low-cost Braille printer. Since then, the San Jose, California middle-schooler has turned 13.

That's young, even by the standards of Silicon Valley, where many venture capitalists unapologetically prefer to fund youth over experience.

Young entrepreneurs usually have reached at least their mid-teens when they hit it big. Nick D'Aloisio, founder of online news aggregator Summly, was 17 when Yahoo bought his company last year for $30 million.

Brothers John and Patrick Collison, behind payments service Stripe, were 16 and 19 when they sold an earlier business to a Canadian company for $5 million.



After reading a fundraising flyer about the blind, Banerjee felt inspired to turn a high-tech version of Legos, the toy building blocks, into a device that could print in Braille. One day, he wants to mass-produce the printers and sell them for about $350, far less than Braille printers cost now.

This past summer, he worked on incorporating an Intel Edison chip, a processor aimed at hobbyists, into the printer. In September, Intel invited him to a conference in India to highlight uses for Edison. There, he got a big surprise.

Intel executive Mike Bell announced from the conference stage that the giant chipmaker would invest in his company, Braigo Labs. Until then, his funding consisted of the $35,000 his parents gave him.

"I turned back to my dad, and said, 'What did he just say?'" Banerjee recalled. "I was all over the place."

Banerjee and a spokesman for Intel Capital declined to disclose the size of the investment. A person familiar with the matter said it was a few hundred thousand dollars. He plans to use it to build a better prototype of the printer and test it with more groups for the blind.



After the announcement, Banerjee had to bone up on unfamiliar terms such as "venture capital."

He also needed to convince adults to co-sign his funding and patent documents. Among the company officials he turned to: Braigo's president, his mom, Malini.

Banerjee says he gets mostly As and Bs as a student at the Champion School in San Jose, California. Teachers have given him time off to attend events like the conference in India and the Intel Global Capital summit this week in Huntington Beach, California. He catches up on school work on weekends, he says.

This is the second Intel investment connected to the Banerjee family. His dad, Neil, works for Kno, an education start-up that Intel bought last year.

While many young entrepreneurs who win venture-capital cash end up ditching their education to focus on their businesses full time, Banerjee says he won't take that path.

"It's an after-school thing," he says.
