The behavior of the installed base of Android operating systems is different from other ecosystems, so much that it is not easy to understand, but has an explanation. Although we have been months with Android Nougat in the market, are still few devices that appear first with this operating system as standard, while others end up receiving an update, later than early. Google, with the arrival of the month of April, has published the installed base of Android operating systems in the market where it highlights the slight growth of Android Nougat that has already reached about 5% of the market, although still far from its predecessor where Android Marshmallow Represents 31.2% of the total installed base. Android operating systems on phones and other devices have a very particular growth needing up to a year to make a version become a trend. Specifically, according to data released by Google, the new Android Nougat represents 4.9% of the current installed base, being the fourth version more widespread as of March 2017. In this way 1 in 20 devices with Android operating system Have Nougat, although still far from Android Lollipop, the most widespread system, with a representation of 32%. It is also interesting to see that Android Kitkat has a 20% installed base despite all the years that have passed since its release. Also mention Android Jelly Bean with a 10.1% presence. This behavior of the Android installed base should be understood because only the high-end companies usually end up upgrading to the new, while the mid-range and entry (the most numerous) never receive such updates. In this way, until the new Android Nougat is not a standard in the next devices mid-range and entry range, will not grow to much higher percentages.

Among all the types of malware that exist the most dangerous is the ransomware, a code that hijacks all files on a computer until a certain economic amount is paid to a cybercrime or organization, releasing (or not) your computer. If you thought that you had already seen everything in the macabre world of ransomware, a new version kidnaps your files and does not ask for money, but forces you to get an impossible score in one of the most complicated bullet hell games on the market. Rensenware, this malware encrypts the files of the computer by hijacking them, demanding to get about 200 million points in the bullet hell Touhou Seriensen 12: Undefined Fantastic Object, a Japanese killer who will start hating if you can not overcome it, something almost impossible. However, you should try to get to those 200 million points in your maximum difficulty level called 'Lunatic', making the company even more complicated. Interestingly, this ransomware in the form of video game has been created, in an original way, by a student with pseudonym Tvple Eraser as a joke for his friends, but that incomprehensibly has come to GitHub and has spread to the whole world. Its creator, who has even been infected by malware, has created a solution that has hung on GitHub so that anyone affected can clean your computer without having to reach those 200 million points. The bad thing is that the real cybercriminals have already done with the original code of this ransomware and have been able to adapt it to one that does ask for an economic reward, with which in the end a bad joke to friends has become a danger Potential for anyone with Internet access.

Denys Matthies, a researcher at the Fraunhofer Institute in Germany, has developed headphones that allow you to control your mobile phone with facial expressions. At present, the engineers are designing all kinds of solutions that allow us to use the smartphone without touching it. The most po[CENSORED]r are control systems by hand or voice gestures or, but they are not the only alternatives, as Matthies has been able to demonstrate with its new prototype. The ears can provide information of our facial expressions. When we move the face there are changes in the electric field and the tissues undergo a temporal deformation. These data can be detected by an electrode housed inside the ear, so that the gestures we make with the face and the movements of the head can be used to control electronic devices. Thus, by integrating these electrodes into a headset, the user can trigger different actions on his mobile phone without having to touch him through facial expressions, for example to go from song to answer a call. "We're not trying to replace traditional input methods, but we're creating an add-on for them," explains Matthies in New Scientist. The operation of the prototype of this researcher and his team is very simple. For example, if the user smiles, his electric field and the muscles of his ears are positioned in a certain way that the electrode is able to identify. The device then sends the instruction associated with this gesture to the smartphone, for example taking a picture.

One of the most common issues with major updates like Windows 10 Creators Update is that the installation process often fails because of application compatibility errors, especially since developers do not update their own software programs for new versions of Microsoft . Although it downloads well on most devices, it seems that on Toshiba computers there is an application that blocks this new version. The solution? You will have to eliminate it. The Toshiba Display Utility program blocks Creators Update from Windows 10 in the installation of the program and therefore users whose computers are running must uninstall it before starting the update process. "Currently this Toshiba utility is not compatible with Windows 10 Creators Update.If you have the tool installed on your computer, you will not receive the update and you will be prevented from downloading it," they declared from the company. Because it is not compatible with Windows 10 Creators Update, the only way to update it is to remove it. Once done, reinstall it and then it should work, although performance may be limited. But what is Toshiba Display Utility? An application developed by Toshiba for its own devices that allows users to adjust the display settings, resolution and text size, offering some additional options such as customizing mouse pointer speed. It is possible that devices running the Toshiba Display Utility will be compatible with the latest Microsoft operating system in the near future; The two companies are already working to develop a solution to the incompatibility.

You may not know Tizen OS, because it is an operating system that is not too widespread yet. It is the alternative created by Samsung in response to Android, and according to a computer security researcher, is also a nest of malware. This operating system presents dozens of critical vulnerabilities, calls like Zero Day Exploit or Day zero vulnerability. It consists of a programming error that allows any hacker to execute code remotely, a good way to gain complete control of a device. Amihai Niederman, the Israeli expert who has discovered all these errors, warns about the safety of Tizen OS and the devices that equip it. Mostly they are Smart TV from Samsung, tremendously vulnerable to remote hacking. It is also present in other things Internet devices, like smartwatches, refrigerators or vacuum cleaners with operating system. It would not be the first time malware has taken control of these devices to sow chaos on the Internet. "It's the worst code I've ever seen" are the words Niederman refers to as Samsung's alternative to Android, whose developers do not seem to have spent too much time creating a totally secure OS. So lightly seems to have written its code that even the Tizen OS application store has to do and undo on the system at will, a gateway too tempting for apps that contain malicious code. According to the alarmist, several months ago he tried to contact Samsung to solve all these errors, but still has not gotten a response from the brand, which seems focused on promoting their latest products, such as For example the Samsung Galaxy S8.

Samsung has already deployed all its artillery for this 2017 after the recent presentation of Galaxy S8 and S8 Plus. Now, it is up to him to move to Apple which, as usual, should present in September in a new keynote its innovative terminals that, traditionally, put on sale in the same month. But the iPhone 8 this year is in danger. "There are signs that Apple may delay the launch of its next-generation iPhone in October or even November," says Digitimes, echoing a report published on the China Economic Daily News website. Apparently, Apple has technical problems related to the rolling process of curved OLED panels that would count the new iPhone and the adoption of the 3D sensor of the front camera that could cause the manufacture to be delayed, causing them not to be The sale in the month of September. According to the Economic Daily News, the supply chain, which includes TSMC, Foxconn Electronics, Pegatron Technology, Wistron, Advanced Semiconductor Engineering (ASE), Largan Precision, Cyntec and Yageo, Is altered and can not begin to manufacture the new iPhone 8 in June, as planned. It should be recalled, as well analyzed "9to5mac", that Cupertino have launched their new iPhone model in September every year since the iPhone 5. The iPhone 4s debuted in early October and before, the models went on sale in June. The Apple-based portal recalls that each year, in April, images of new terminals are usually filtered at Foxconn's factories and "that's still going to happen." Thus, "9to5mac" poses two options: o Apple has reinforced security so that nothing is filtered, and everything is secret on the tenth anniversary of the iPhone, "or the devices still do not occur in massive amounts." It is expected that the new iPhone 8, which could hover around 1,000 euros, hit the market with gently curved OLED screen 5.8 inches and no physical buttons. It would be stainless steel, it would have a front camera with 3D depth detection, wireless charging and facial recognition, among other features. However, it would not be the only model that Apple would present. This year, the tenth anniversary of the terminal, Cupertino could launch, along with the previous model, which would be the highest of the range, another two: one of 4.7 inches and another of 5.5 with LCD screens. Thus, the company would launch to the market three new models of iPhone in 2017.

When updating to Windows 10 Creators Update, some users have encountered problems such as - for example - the Start bar has disappeared or icons are not displayed as they should. Far from being a problem of the operating system itself, Microsoft has just revealed that we are facing a compatibility error with Intel processors. And there are four different processor models affected. Although it is possible to upgrade to the version of Creators Update, it is more than recommended that users with an Intel Atom processor device wait to force the installation until April 11, when this update will be available in a way official. The reason is none other than a compatibility error with specific models of Intel processors called Clover Trail. Microsoft is already working on the solution to this problem, but meanwhile it is recommended to avoid the last update of Windows 10 on the affected models For those of you who do not know, the only thing that Microsoft has activated this week is the possibility of installing Windows 10 Creators Update for the most impatient users, while the rest of the Windows 10 community will start receiving the update by the conventional route From next week. By then all the problems detected in these four specific processor models should be solved: Atom Z2760, Atom Z2520, Atom Z2560 and Atom Z2580. Do not even think about upgrading to Windows 10 Creators Update if you have any of these Intel Atom processors The processor models affected by the problems of Windows 10 Creators Update are: Atom Z2760 Atom Z2520 Atom Z2560 Atom Z2580 Microsoft points out that devices with these processors that decide to upgrade to Creators Update are no longer displaying both the program icons and even all the text that appears on the interface, and apparently it is a problem that is not solved otherwise than Deleting the installation and returning to an earlier version. In short, the company advises against installing the update for anyone who has a device with any of these four processors. If you are not sure whether or not you should download the update, here we tell you how you can know what If you have already finished installing Creators Update on an Intel Atom device and you are experiencing any of the problems mentioned above, what Microsoft recommends is that you use the Windows 10 recovery options. This way you can return to a copy And you should normally be able to continue using the device normally.

It is possible that very soon we will see a new Magic Keyboard with Touch Bar and Touch ID integrated. This is apparent from a patent application that Apple has filed with the US Patent and Trademark Office, where a wireless keyboard with an interactive bar integrated in the part can be observed and also equipped with a fingerprint reader for identification Biometric. Since Apple unveiled the Touch Bar and Touch ID, we knew that the company would not take too long to apply these technologies to other devices. The new patent shows that we were right and that soon we could enjoy the advantages of this equipment in the keyboard Magic Keyboard for Apple computers. In total, Apple has filed 6 patent applications to integrate into a separate wireless keyboard that are divided into two groups: one focused on an adaptive input row, which is the Touch Bar, while the other refers to restricted access buttons , Marketed by the company under the name Touch ID. In the text of the first group of requests the following may be read: "In some embodiments, the device may also include a processing unit located within the housing and a primary display positioned at least partially within the housing and configured to display a In some embodiments, the screen is an organic display of light-emitting diodes. The electronic device may be a keyboard device. In relation to the second group, the patent application reads as follows: "The electronic device may integrate a secondary screen at the bottom of the housing between the keyboard and the hinge, and a restricted access button attached to one end Of the secondary display within the bottom of the housing. The restricted access button may include a biometric sensor, such as a fingerprint sensor.

In a private meeting with a number of US media reporters at its Cupertino headquarters, Apple has unveiled what will become the future of Mac Pro, its professional client computer, which will be redesigned and will hit the market in 2018. The company has had its advanced equipment dedicated to professional users relegated into oblivion for four years. The latest cylindrical model hit the market there by 2013, and since then it has not been updated again. Now, Apple intones the mea culpa in an atypical meeting to talk about its plans for the near future. Phil Schiller, vice president of marketing, has told reporters that they feel they have had this break, but that they will reward users with the launch of "something big to replace it." In case you do not remember the Mac Pro, then we leave the unboxing we did in its day to refresh your memory: In the meeting with the journalists, Apple has recognized that the Mac Pro has been victim of its cylindrical design thought to integrate two GPUs and without space to update or add components, a circumstance that has forced to rethink the machinery to the complete. It was a one-size-fits-all team for professional customers in the most diverse fields, without the necessary flexibility of different configurations aimed at the different needs of pro users. In addition, Craig Federighi, vice president of software at Apple, admits that part of the problem has been the growth of the iMac, as the professional customers were transferred to this equipment. This favored that the Mac Pro be relegated to the background, and the company of Cupertino left aside the market of pro users to focus on the devices with greater sales. Now, Apple considers that the time has come to redesign the Mac Pro. The company is working on a modular device that has not given more details, as well as a new Pro screen, which would not hit the market until next year. Meanwhile, although the design of the current Mac Pro has not undergone changes, Cupertino have included more powerful specifications. From now on, the entry-level Mac Pro starting at $ 2,999 will be equipped with a six-core Xeon processor instead of four and two Fire Pro D500 instead of D300. On the other hand, the $ 3,999 model will feature 8 cores and will switch the D500 GPUs by two D700s. In addition, Apple has also confirmed that it is working on an iMac with power and performance aimed at professional customers, but has not advanced anything else.

Steam has just thrown more firewood into the debate over whether Intel or AMD is better. This time with a poll, leaving the ball on the roof of the users. The video game distribution platform has compiled data on what hardware and gaming components its users use, and the results are not surprising. Given the po[CENSORED]rity of video games for PCs, it is important to know the preferences within the most po[CENSORED]r platform. There are many who decide to assemble step by step a desktop by pieces, the cheapest option. Some stretch the savings as much as to be able to set up their own PC Gaming for only € 600. If we go down to the data arena we see that Intel once again defeats AMD. On this occasion by much difference. The preferred gaming processors by its users are the Intel Core, presumably the i5 Skylake and Kabylake, as well as the sixth and seventh generation i7. They are precisely those that we could compare recently with the new AMD Ryzen 7, comparative of identical result. What is surprising is the huge difference between the two companies. The 79.53% of users believe that Intel is better than AMD, which also does not come out well when comparing the acceptance of their graphics cards. In this case the winners are the gaming graphics of Nvidia - especially the GTX 970 - with 56.4% of the total, doubling to the ATI Radeon (24.7%). In other minor issues, HTC Vive virtual reality glasses stand out as dominators in SteamVR, although only 0.24% of the gamers of this platform have them and its growth (+ 0,01%) does not seem too noticeable . Surely it has something to do with its high price, one of the disadvantages that we found when we had the chance to try them. These are other curious facts of the survey: Half of the users access with Windows 10 64-bit 8GB of RAM is the most po[CENSORED]r configuration Resolution 1080p is the one that uses by default 45% of the users 63% of gamers use microphone

Google has signed an agreement with leading Android phone manufacturers to defend themselves against patent claims. The project called PAX, which includes Samsung, LG, and HTC, will share patents covering Android and Google applications on any device that meets the requirements for compatibility with the operating system. They will be exchanged free of charge among the participants, a group that will be free and open for any company to leave when new manufacturers join or want to join. The full name of the agreement is Android Networked Cross-License, which for short have simplified in PAX, which means peace in Latin, as a symbol of good coexistence that is intended to reach the legal world of technology. Under PAX, members are mutually granting royalty-free patent licenses covering Android and Google applications on qualified devices. "This community-driven coordination hub, developed with our Android partners, ensures that innovation and consumer choice - not patent threats - will continue to be the main drivers of our Android ecosystem. PAX is free to join and Open to anyone, "explain from Google. It has not been confirmed what kind of patents will be shared or what exact problems will help to solve; Is expected to serve as a way for companies to defend themselves against patent trolls, patent-seeking companies, and technology giants against intellectual property issues. Google's agreement with Android makers could be a big win for Samsung as the brand manufactures and sells more devices with this operating system than any other company listed. For Google it is also a step forward as it will help expand its ecosystem so that even the smallest companies can collaborate. "In the area of intellectual property, patent sharing will match the innovation and healthy competition that benefits consumers," said Jamie Rosenberg, vice president of business for Android.

Throughout the world it is well known that the official autonomy of any electronic device rarely corresponds to reality. The manufacturers carry out tests in laboratories to reach figures of autonomy that in a real environment are very difficult to reach, and a recent study has just revealed the difference that exists between the official autonomy and the real autonomy of the laptops. Because, how can we know that our laptop will last on what the manufacturer says? To try to shed some light on the matter, an English medium called Which? Has decided to rescue the results of autonomy of no less than 67 of all the laptops that passed the test table of its publishers during the last year. The study has been very simple: what they have done has been to compare the official autonomy figures that any manufacturer presumes on their website with the results of autonomy that have obtained those same equipment in a real test. The study reveals an uncomfortable truth: the official autonomy that manufacturers advertise on their computers differs from real autonomy not only in minutes, but even in some cases the difference can be measured in hours. The conclusion reached in the study is that manufacturers exaggerate the autonomy of their computers, and this charge is not a trademark. Manufacturers like HP, Lenovo or Toshiba (among others) receive an important pull of ears by this English medium. "The most optimistic manufacturers [of laptops]," the article points out, "overestimate the autonomy of their batteries by 50% or even more." The study mentions different examples: we have for example the laptops of Dell, that of the nine hours and 15 minutes of autonomy that are mentioned in its official datasheet turns out that in the tests of Which? Have been offering just over five hours of battery life. To reach these conclusions, the media has tested specific models of laptops such as the HP Pavilion 14-al115na, the Dell Inspiron 15 5000 or the Acer E15. In total they say that they have been based on the results of the tests of 67 different laptops, with a figure of between six and 20 equipment of each manufacturer. To throw the charge over Dell laptops, for example, the medium has been passed in ten tests of ten different laptops of this brand. The curious thing is that the only manufacturer that according to this study does offer the autonomy that promises in their laptops is Apple. They say that the company announces an average autonomy of ten hours in their Macbooks, and the real autonomy that obtains these equipment in a test with a daily use exceeds even those ten hours. To reach this conclusion, this English medium has tested three computers different from those of Cupertino. Manufacturers always warn that real autonomy depends on the use The manufacturers mentioned in the study have not been slow in responding to the allegations. Dell, for example, says that it is very difficult to provide official autonomy figures that are then met identically among all users. "It's something similar to the fact that different people who drive the same car can get greater or lower autonomy depending on their type of driving," they point out from the company. But not even the manufacturers say at any time that the official autonomy of their equipment is going to meet 100 percent in real use. Manufacturers like HP, for example, point out in the small print of each and every one of their devices that "[the actual autonomy depends on] numerous factors like product model, configuration, loaded applications, functions, usage, Wireless functionality and power management parameters. " In short, no company can promise that official autonomy will be fulfilled in reality. In fact, when talking about official autonomy even HP itself links to the website of a company called BAPCo. BAPCo is a company that specializes in the measurement of different parameters of devices such as laptops, and is the company that companies like Dell, HP, Lenovo or Toshiba work with to certify the behavior of their devices. In this link anyone can see the results of these tests.

The statistics for the month of February already pointed out, and finally during the month of March there has been sorpasso: Android has surpassed Windows as the most po[CENSORED]r operating system in the world, at least in terms of Internet usage. This is announced today in a statement StatCounter, the company dedicated to the measurement of statistics and web analytics globally. In last month's StatCounter report we could already see that Google's mobile operating system challenged the all-powerful Windows and was only 1.2% of the Internet usage fee. The trend of recent months has been with a slight decline in users of Microsoft's operating system and a progressive increase of Android, which has allowed us to reach a point that the global statistics portal defines as "a milestone In the history of technology and the end of an era. " According to the results of the report for the month of March 2017, in terms of total Internet use through desktop computers, laptops, tablets and smartphones, Android imposes a fee of 37.93%, while Windows Is in second place with 37.91%. The gap between them is minimal, but StatCounter CEO Aodhan Cullen says it "marks the end of Microsoft's leadership in the worldwide operating systems market that has been in place since the 1980s. It also represents A breakthrough for Android, which had a share of only 2.4% five years ago. " This milestone has been possible thanks to the increase in the use of the Internet in the mobile, which already surpassed that of the computer at the end of 2016, the decline in sales of traditional PCs and the impact of Asia on the world market, where the operating system For Google mobile has a great weight due to access from the smartphone. However, Windows still boasts world leadership in desktop operating systems, with an internet usage quota of 84, 34%, with a large advantage over OS X, which is in second place with a share of 11 , 68%.

At last Thursday's shareholders' meeting in Chiba, Japan, Toshiba's majority shareholders decided to separate their NAND-type Flash memory business from the company's core conglomerate. What it means to put shares for sale. From here, the madness ... Private investment firm Silver Lake Partners Learning and Finance, along with chip maker Broadcom, has put $ 17.9 billion into the table to get the entire Toshiba flash memory chip manufacturing unit. Under normal conditions such a large amount of money would have been sufficient to close the deal ... Until Apple, Amazon and Google, each on their own, have come into full swing in the bid. It has not been revealed how much they have put on the table. They are not the only candidates. Up to ten large companies have been interested in the shares of the Toshiba chip unit. From direct rivals like Micron and Western Digital, to investment firms that have glimpsed the possibility of making money. Why is Toshiba's NAND flash drive so appealing? This type of memory is used to store information on portable devices or on SSD hard drives, among many other applications. And Toshiba is one of the most prestigious manufacturers. If Apple, Amazon, or Google had their own NAND flash memory maker, they could save hundreds of millions on making their smartphones, tablets, and Internet devices for Things, as well as doing business selling NAND memory for computers, or Other brands, as Toshiba has done so far. This type of component is one of the most requested, as the requirements of memory and access speed required by modern hardware increase. Despite being the richest companies in the world, Apple, Google and Amazon will not have it easy to buy Toshiba's NAND flash drive, as there are many other candidates with lots of money bidding for it. Who will win the auction?

We spend weeks decorating and adjusting our curricula but the reality is that, at least in the realm of large companies, these curricula are read by bots (computer programs) which are the ones that make a first selection. If you've been looking for a job for a long time, your resume may have been rejected more than once by a bot. Sad but true... Robert Coomps is director of an American NGO where he no longer feels necessary, so he set out to look for new challenges. In the United States, all big companies use bots to filter candidates' curricula, so he decided to use his own weapon: to create a bot to automatically search for jobs. Coomps is neither an engineer nor a programmer, but in his position as director of an NGO he acquired knowledge of data analysis. So I created a bot (a program) that automatically analyzed job boards, identified the required positions and the names of the contact persons (the recruiters), and sent letters and automated emails. It created two variants: an email written and sent by him, and another similar email that the bot was in charge of filling and sending automatically: He did not always send the same type of email, but had several variants and in some included his resume as an adjunct, in others his link to LinkedIn, etc. The first version of his bot was too aggressive. In what had gone down to the cafeteria to have a coffee, discovered that the bot had sent its curriculum to 1300 companies. He decided to refine it with the advice of contractors with whom he contacted. Thus, for example, he discovered that many bots give priority to the candidate having references from other companies, or to certain types of schools where he had studied. With version 5.0 of his bot he sent 538 resumes to as many companies, both written and sent by himself, as by means of the bot. His program received more responses and more visits to LinkedIn than emails sent by him, as you can see in this graph (in purple, bot data): For example, their emails generated 1% of visits to LinkedIn, and those of the bot, 5%. In fact, 43 companies responded to the bot seeking employment by asking them to schedule a job interview. Robert Coomps spoke with 20 of them and confessed that they had actually contacted a bot. They were all surprised and congratulated him for his program. After chatting with a lot of recruiters and checking the results of their experiment, he concluded that most jobs are achieved only if you have references, or acquaintances that put you in touch with the right people. In fact between 80 and 90% of the jobs are not covered by using LinkedIn, as one of the recruiters explained, but because someone has an acquaintance, or a manager knows an interesting person, and creates a position I work for her. Sending your resume or a job search bot is no better or worse when it comes to finding a job ...

A team of researchers at security firm Check Point has revealed a vulnerability that allowed hacking of WhatsApp and Telegram accounts in a simple way: by sending a malicious image. According to the report, with this strategy attackers could take complete control of victim profiles, with access to contacts, conversations, and shared photos and videos. From Check Point they explain that the bug could be exploited through the browser version of WhatsApp and Telegram. The web application of both platforms is synchronized with the user's device and contains a mirror of all the messages sent and received by the users, so that the security gap allowed the attacker to have free access to all the contents of the account. According to the researchers, to take advantage of this security bug all you had to do was send a seemingly normal image with malicious code injected. In the case of WhatsApp, when the victim clicked on the photo to open it, the code that was executed allowed the attacker to enter the local storage, where the user's data is located. In Telegram it was necessary to click again to open a new browser tab and give access to local storage. From this moment, the cybercriminals could view and download all the contents, as well as control the account at will. In this way, he could repeat the attack with the contacts of the victim by mass sending the malicious image. In addition, because the messages are encrypted end-to-end, companies are not aware of the files being sent, which prevents them from detecting malware. Check Point informed WhatsApp and Telegram of the vulnerability on March 7. It ensures that both instant messaging platforms tested and recognized the security issue, developing a solution for web clients that fixed the bug. Telegram denies having been affected by the vulnerability Following the release of the news in the media around the world, Telegram has issued a statement to deny that this vulnerability has existed. According to the company, Check Point reported that Telegram had the same problem as WhatsApp to maximize its impact on the press, and assures that in the case of its platform the security of the account has not been compromised at any time by the described technique .
