How to increase battery life on an Android Device.

Android devices are easy to use, have a nice UI, good perfomance, but battery life can be a major drawback in most devices. but with a few precautions, we can increase battery life,

  • Do not use Live Wallpapers. They're nice, but they drain battery.
  • [for HTC] Do not use Sense UI. That is HTC's home app. It may look good, but it also drains battery.
  • Prefer the back button over the home button. The back button lets apps decide if they want to run in the background. The home screen often leaves apps running when they don't need to.
  • Don't use app killers! There's no need for them if you use the back button, and you'll end up crippling other apps because of non-obvious dependencies between apps.
  • Use WiFi whenever you have access to a network because it uses less battery than 4G. (Shorter distance, lower power.) Turn WiFi off when you don't have access to a network, otherwise it will keep looking for a WiFi network it can use (which drains battery).
  • Reduce the frequency at which apps refresh their content, Like social media clients (Twitter, Facebook, etc.), email, and news or weather apps.
  • Finally, watch your battery usage under Settings -> About Phone -> Battery -> Battery Use. This will show you what has been using the battery since it was last charged. (So it shows nothing while charging!) If anything unexpected is using the battery, consider replacing it with another app or service.

5 Deadly Terminal Commands in Linux

Terminal is powerful than Command Prompt. It won't ask your confirmation if you type a deadly command. Newbie linux users can be easily fooled by these code spreading as trolls via internet. So you must be aware of these code that will destory you computer.

1.  rm-rf / 
this code deletes everything on your computer. This formats everything possible including Hard drives and connected storage devices.
rm - deletes the following files.
-rf - deletes all the files and folders inside a particular folder.
/ - this instructs rm to start from the root where all your files are located.

2. :(){ :|: & };:
this one is a kind of virus that defines a shell function. It has the ability to replicate itself to many copies which may then eats up your cpu time and memory.

3. mkfs.ext4 /dev/sda1
this one is same as formatting C drive in windows. this will format your first partition and replace them with a new file system.

4. mv ~ /dev/null
This code makes your home folder disappear. in other words will move your home folder into a black hole. 
mv - means to move folder or file.
~ - this indicates your home folder as a whole.
/dev/null - Destroys everything.

5. dd if=/dev/random of=/dev/sda
