Hi guys i am not an android user, searching for a quick answer here please. My mother bought a samsung galaxy J7, how do i check if it is brand new set? Is there any web site just key in the serial number or something? I can't even find the J7 thread here? I never heard of this phone also, i think she got con to buy this rm1k over phone.

Genuine or not, I'm not sure. But if you said over RM1k, mean your mom bought above RRP.
Samsung Galaxy J5 RRP: 799 (GST inc.)
Samsung Galaxy J7 RRP: 999 (GST inc.)

^ Above are the samples of ads that making annoyed like shite.
It appears when ever it wants, and even when calls are coming in!

I would need to de-select the ads, and only then can I answer calls.
Question is; how do I remove this pesky ads ?

FYI, I am using Android 4.2.2, Lenovo A850+
EDIT : Update : Downloaded StopBadApp, but problem is still unresolved.

This happen when you downloaded a lot of rogue apps.

Try download another apps call "Ad-Network Scanner & Detector" to scanned those push ads apps.

Guys, I have some question on dual sim android and how it works. Would be nice if someone can explain to me what is dual sim standby and dual sim active.

ok, here is the case.

number A - bind with Whatsapp, no data plan
number B - with data plan.

If i put sim A and B into a dual sim phone, even if i turn on number B's data plan, I am still not able to receive whatsapp on number A right? any way to make number A receive Whatsapp while number B's data plan is on?

And another question, can i use number B to surf the web while still able to receive call from number A? This requires a dual active phone right?
*
DSDA (DualSIM DualActive) and DSDS (DualSIM DualStandby) are very self explanatory.

Back to your question. Using SIM B data while trying to received msg from WhatsApp are possible, because it have nothing to do with neither both of your SIM cards. Because msg from WhatsApp are came from data networks or WiFi as long the numbers (SIM A) are binded (activated) with your WhatsApp on your phone, you won't have any problems even thou you swap out the SIM A to somewhere put aside, and put SIM C in your previous SIM A tray. Or in another word, as long your SIM A have been activated on the phone WhatsApp, even you took out both SIM, you still can received msg, as long you don't try to put the SIM A to another 2nd phone to activate with WhatsApp again, or else the server will kick you out from the first phone earlier.

To surf SIM B data, and receive call from SIM A doesn't require DSDA, what DSDA means is, you can use both SIM A and B to make call at the same time or use data at the same time, Honor 7 should have this feature for dual data at same time, but not for dual call at same time, is kinda complicated.

thx bro.

U really cleared up my mind on the Whatsapp part. As long as the Whatsapp is registered under number A, then I can use any data (even from number B) or wifi to receive it.  Since the message comes from data/wifi, not via the sim card A. thumbup.gif

for the 2nd question. Meaning any dual stand-by phone will work? if I surf using Sim B, I can still receive call from Sim A?  hmm.gif
*
Yes, WhatsApps is an apps that run on data/wifi network, not a SMS/MMS Client aka Messengers (SMS/MMS push-service from Telco).

Yes, in short, Yes, DSDS will work. Dual Standby mean, both SIM Card are ready to working. So far I haven't seen any smartphone on 2015 are still using DualSIM SingleStandby lol. laugh.gif

I've been searching for dual sim phones in GSMarena. Most of it juz dual standby, don't see the dual active word much. laugh.gif

Well, I'm not engineer, but from what I'm understanding, it require 2 transceiver inside the phone to do the jobs, hence it will cost the engineer design more and parts price higher, that is why DSDA (DualSIM DualActive) are so less (none at all) we can be see on the market. If I'm not mistaken the latest Huawei Honor 7 are DSDA, but have to hands on to find out.

i love google app but the new google photo app has been quite painfully slow...its like searching for a network each time it is open. even when i oredi off the sync/backup...

why? and how can i improve the loading speed?
*
Because that is search for Internet Cloud Photos, you need check your local photos, you have to swipe out from left and select local drive photos.

If you meant for Cloud Photos loading slow, try reinstall your Photos from PlayStore.

Can i stop it from searching?

even when i search the local drive (from the swipe out left menu) its still slow and sometimes lagging when i browse or delete the photos...

Hmmm... Sounds fishy to me.. Maybe you try to reinstall the whole apps? And what phone you using by the way? Usually it won't delay or lagging.. because those cache thumbnail are store on your device, it should be faster after you first time preview them...

Well, I can't do anything help for you, but if you do need a new phone, SenHeng/SenQ offer to trade in your bricked/broken/used/new/whatever condition of your Note 2.

Slow browsing speed on my phone

My WIFI internet speed test results:

Laptop (i5 4GB ram running Win7, Chrome) - 1.08 mbps download
Asus ZF2  (2.3GHz and 4GB ram, Chrome) - 1.3 mbps download

Even though the ookla speedtest numbers are similar, my laptop is markedly faster in loading actual websites and streaming videos, especially when using multiple tabs.

Actually i find streaming html5 videos relatively slow on my phone especially the initial buffer period. For example, my laptop will start playing a video as soon as I click on it, while a similar video will take at least 40 seconds to start playing on my phone. Worst still, if I seek a different time stamp, it will buffer again wasting my time and annoy the heck out of me.  vmad.gif  cry.gif  vmad.gif  Streaming HD videos, naturally is out of the question.

Is this normal for an android device or is there something wrong with my phone?

3 problem.

1. YouTube Apps sucks
2. Your Internet slow
3. Check your streaming resolution
