GOOGLE-INTRODUCES-ANDROID-11-HERE-

Loading videoGoogle has released the first developer preview for Android 11, the next version of its mobile operating system. It’s the earliest Google has ever done a preview like this, so the updates here aren’t that front-facing, but Google’s making some big promises, like improved support for 5G, better privacy features, and new messaging interfaces.
Also: this is really, really a preview meant for developers only — it’s just for the Pixel 2, 3, 3A, or 4, and it can only be installed with a full flash that will wipe all your data. In other words, you shouldn’t install this on your main device, unless you like using a busted phone.
Fortunately, we’ve got a spare Pixel around and dug up some neat features in the early beta. Here’s what’s new so far:

Bubbles — Reminiscent of Facebook’s chat heads, the “bubbles” feature was originally meant to be part of Android 10 last year. It’s a new UI for messaging apps that lets you keep several conversations easily accessible anywhere through a floating bubble. Right now, it seems that just Google’s own messaging app has support, but the idea is that any app — like WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, or Signal — could take advantage of the feature.

Conversations — To go along with the bubbles there is a new conversations section of the notification shade that breaks out new messages into their own area ahead of all your emails, Instagram likes, and app updates. The idea is to make the communication parts of your phone more accessible because, well, it’s a phone, and that’s what it does — help you talk to people.

Better app permissions — Taking a page out of iOS’s book, Android 11 is adding the option to just give apps temporary permission to your camera, microphone, and location data. It’s a simple addition, but one that makes Android a lot more secure.

Screen recording — Google already had a version of this in Android 10’s betas that didn’t make its way to the final version. But screen recording is back and has a whole fancy UI this time, which means that the feature may finally be shipping in Android 11. It basically does what it says on the can: records your screen.


Smaller tweaks and changes:
  • Automated dark mode toggles
  • A new Motion Sense gesture for the Pixel 4 to play or pause music
  • An “increased touch sensitivity” setting for the Pixel 4, meant for use with screen savers
  • The option to pin apps to the top of the share sheet is back from the Android 10 beta.
  • Turning on airplane mode no longer disconnects Bluetooth audio connections.
  • XDA Developers reports that there’s also a hidden new screenshot UI, but it’s not enabled by default (or fully functional yet).

There are also plenty more changes that are simply under the hood, like better support for folding, waterfall, and pinhole displays, 5G integration, scoped storage, improved privacy and security, and more. We’ll continue to update this post as more hidden features in Android 11 are discovered in the coming days.

But remember: the current Android 11 developer beta is a very early version of what we’ll be getting later this year, so don’t get your hopes up for any major new features or big redesigns just yet — expect Google to have plenty more to say on that front when Google I/O rolls around in May.

Scientists Identify a New Kind of Human Brain Cell

Scientists Identify a New Kind of Human Brain Cell

One of the most intriguing questions about the human brain is also one of the most difficult for neuroscientists to answer: What sets our brains apart from those of other animals?

“We really don’t understand what makes the human brain special,” said Ed Lein, Ph.D., Investigator at the Allen Institute for Brain Science. “Studying the differences at the level of cells and circuits is a good place to start, and now we have new tools to do just that.”

In a new study published today in the journal Nature Neuroscience, Lein and his colleagues reveal one possible answer to that difficult question. The research team, co-led by Lein and Gábor Tamás, Ph.D., a neuroscientist at the University of Szeged in Szeged, Hungary, has uncovered a new type of human brain cell that has never been seen in mice and other well-studied laboratory animals.

Tamás and University of Szeged doctoral student Eszter Boldog dubbed these new cells “rosehip neurons” — to them, the dense bundle each brain cell’s axon forms around the cell’s center looks just like a rose after it has shed its petals, he said. The newly discovered cells belong to a class of neurons known as inhibitory neurons, which put the brakes on the activity of other neurons in the brain. 

The study hasn’t proven that this special brain cell is unique to humans. But the fact that the special neuron doesn’t exist in rodents is intriguing, adding these cells to a very short list of specialized neurons that may exist only in humans or only in primate brains.

The researchers don’t yet understand what these cells might be doing in the human brain, but their absence in the mouse points to how difficult it is to model human brain diseases in laboratory animals, Tamás said. One of his laboratory team’s immediate next steps is to look for rosehip neurons in postmortem brain samples from people with neuropsychiatric disorders to see if these specialized cells might be altered in human disease.

■ When different techniques converge

In their study, the researchers used tissue samples from postmortem brains of two men in their 50s who had died and donated their bodies to research. They took sections of the top layer of the cortex, the outermost region of the brain that is responsible for human consciousness and many other functions that we think of as unique to our species. It’s much larger, compared to our body size, than in other animals.

“It’s the most complex part of the brain, and generally accepted to be the most complex structure in nature,” Lein said.

Tamás’ research lab in Hungary studies the human brain using a classical approach to neuroscience, conducting detailed examinations of cells’ shapes and electrical properties. At the Allen Institute, Lein leads a team working to uncover the suite of genes that make human brain cells unique from each other and from the brain cells of mice.

Several years ago, Tamás visited the Allen Institute to present his latest research on specialized human brain cell types, and the two research groups quickly saw that they’d hit on the same cell using very different techniques.

“We realized that we were converging on the same cell type from absolutely different points of view,” Tamás said. So they decided to collaborate.

The Allen Institute group, in collaboration with researchers from the J. Craig Venter Institute, found that the rosehip cells turn on a unique set of genes, a genetic signature not seen in any of the mouse brain cell types they’ve studied. The University of Szeged researchers found that the rosehip neurons form synapses with another type of neuron in a different part of the human cortex, known as pyramidal neurons.

This is one of the first studies of the human cortex to combine these different techniques to study cell types, said Rebecca Hodge, Ph.D., Senior Scientist at the Allen Institute for Brain Science and an author on the study.

“Alone, these techniques are all powerful, but they give you an incomplete picture of what the cell might be doing,” Hodge said. “Together, they tell you complementary things about a cell that can potentially tell you how it functions in the brain.” 

How do you study humanity? 

What appears to be unique about rosehip neurons is that they only attach to one specific part of their cellular partner, indicating that they might be controlling information flow in a very specialized way.

If you think of all inhibitory neurons like brakes on a car, the rosehip neurons would let your car stop in very particular spots on your drive, Tamás said. They’d be like brakes that only work at the grocery store, for example, and not all cars (or animal brains) have them.

“This particular cell type — or car type — can stop at places other cell types cannot stop,” Tamás said. “The car or cell types participating in the traffic of a rodent brain cannot stop in these places.”

The researchers’ next step is to look for rosehip neurons in other parts of the brain, and to explore their potential role in brain disorders. Although scientists don’t yet know whether rosehip neurons are truly unique to humans, the fact that they don’t appear to exist in rodents is another strike against the laboratory mouse as a perfect model of human disease — especially for neurological diseases, the researchers said.

“Our brains are not just enlarged mouse brains,” said Trygve Bakken, M.D., Ph.D., Senior Scientist at the Allen Institute for Brain Science and an author on the study. “People have commented on this for many years, but this study gets at the issue from several angles.”

“Many of our organs can be reasonably modeled in an animal model,” Tamás said. “But what sets us apart from the rest of the animal kingdom is the capacity and the output of our brain. That makes us human. So it turns out humanity is very difficult to model in an animal system.”

Download WiFi Kill PRO APK for Android to Penetrate WiFi Networks

Posted: Dec 2016

Recently, I’ve been trying some usefulsoftwares for penetrating WiFi networks and I’ve seen success in most of the tested programs. I was even shocked at the way most of these programs works, at least, having known their penetration pathway and loop holes, I know where and how to protect my WiFi networks against hackers.


If you’re a PC user, you must have heard about Netcut which stops unauthorized persons from using our WiFi, what about mobile? Do you know that you can easily penetrate through your network and disable any other unauthorized users from making use of your network via mobile?

Introducing WiFi kill…

The WiFi Kill pro application is known to be a dangerous tools if on the hands of the wrong person, because same where you use the tools against others, same way the tool can be used against you. But you don’t need to worry, simply read the 3 ways to secure WiFi access on android and you’re safe.

Now, what WiFi kill does is to disable other connected device on same network and consumes the bandwidth to itself (that is, then penetrator consumes the bandwidth) gaining internet speed at max. However, the application also has the ability to show visited websites and traffic from the device disabled with some other info (compromised privacy which isn’t good at all) like network name., etc. The interface of the app is very friendly and with the help of this app, you get to view what people connected on same network surf on the internet and what they download.

App Name: WiFi Kill.apk

Price: Free

Android version: 4.0 and above

Malware scan: Certified              

How to Install WiFi Kill Network Penetrator?

As known, the wifi kill is a download from a third party source (if yours isn’t downloaded from Playstore), so you’ll need to enable “unknown source”. To enable, go to Settings >> Security, scroll down and enable the unknown source option which enables you download apps outside Google playstore.

How to unlock Bootloader, Install TWRP and Root Oneplus 3

Oneplus 3 android has been launched and made available on e-commerce stores. However, we managed to get the official custom recovery file for the device alongside the root file. With this, we can be able to install custom recovery by team win recovery project and then flash the SuperSU root file from recovery mode.


Before we can get to install the recovery and root files, there are protocols that we can’t skip, like unlocking the bootloader of the device. As known, oneplus devices do comes out of the box with a locked bootloader, so we can flash files on it only if we did unlock the bootloader of the device.

Don’t worry, you won’t regret any of this procedures… instead, it will benefit you and will be a big progress after success. As you’ll know the benefits of rooting your device and also the benefits you get from installing custom recovery file on your device. So, if you wish to take full control of your device, tweak dark ends of the device, flash custom roms and get some other tweaks via Xposed modules, then you’re highly advised to install custom recovery and root your device.

Recently, I published an article on how to make use of systemless Xposed on android devices, with that, no more worries on OTA updates and android pay, as it will function on your rooted device, but you’ll need to have installed custom recovery, before you flash the systemless SuperSU provided in the guide.

Today, I’ll quickly walk you through the process on how to unlock bootloader of your Oneplus 3, only then you can install custom recovery and finally root your device from recovery mode.

Warning: Please you’re highly advised to take nandroid backup of your recent rom and also make use of tools for file backup to backup your data, so if you skip any of the below procedure (which may risk your device) you’ll be able to recovery your device to normal state. Guruswizard isn’t responsible for any damages done on device, but I assure you success if all protocols are observed.

Note: You’ll need to first enable USB Debugging mode from the smartphone. To Enable USB debugging mode on OnePlus 3, simply go to settings >> developers option and enable from there. If the developers option isn’t visible, then go to about phone (under settings menu) and locate build number, and tap on it several times, till it notifies that you’re now a developer. This would enable developer’s option and connect your device to your computer.

How to unlock Bootloader on Oneplus 3 Android?

1.       Firstly, setup ADB and Fastboot drivers on your Oneplus 3 device.

2.       After that, open the ADB and fastboot program, launch command windows from the folder, to launch, simply click Shift + Right click and select “Open command windows here” as seen in the image below.


3.       After that, input the below command and hit enter to enter fastboot/bootloader mode, as shown in the image below.


adb reboot bootloader

4.       Next, input the below command to confirm if your device is connected to the computer

fastboot devices

5.       After that, input the below command to unlock bootloader of your Oneplus 3 android

fastboot oem unlock

6.       To verify if your bootloader is unlocked, input the below command and hit enter, if device tampered and device tampared unlock displays true as seen in the image below, then your bootloader is verified unlock.


fastboot oem device-info

That’s it… bootloader of device has been unlocked successfully. The next action on our list is installation of custom recovery and rooting the device. You can close the command windows and reboot your device

How to Install TWRP 3.0.0 Recovery on Oneplus 3

1.       Firstly, download the TWRP Recovery file here, and rename the image file to recovery.img.

2.       After that, move the image file to the ADB and fastboot folder, because we’re going to flash the recovery file using command windows.

3.       Boot your device to fastboot/bootloader mode, simply follow the step 2 &3 of the “unlock bootloader” guide to boot device to fastboot mode.

4.       Next, run the below command to flash recovery file.

fastboot flash recovery recovery.img

5.       Once you’ve flashed the file, simply input the below command to boot to recovery mode, which confirms you’ve flashed the file.

fastboot boot recovery.img

That’s it… getting to recovery mode is a sign of success. Next is rooting the device… you can disconnect your device from the PC now and reboot your device.

How to Root Oneplus 3 on Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow

You can choose to use systemless SuperSU to root, so as to install Systemless Xposed and continue receiving OTA updates and using Android pay, if you still wish to use the normal root method, then install the normal root file using the below procedure.

1.       Firstly, download SuperSU file here and move the file to the root memory of your device (don’t move to a folder, just the root directory).

2.       After that, boot your device to recovery mode using the Volume down + Power buttons together and wait till it boots to recovery mode.

3.       Once you’ve boot your device to recovery mode, simply tap “install” locate for the SuperSU file mode on your device memory, select the file and install.


4.       Once you’re done installing the file… then reboot your device and that’s it.
