Nokia Lumia 510 Review, Specifications & Price in India



Nokia Lumia 510 price in India: 9300 – 9500Rs.
Nokia has added a new budget phone “Nokia Lumia 510″ to its windows based lumia series
smartphones. It runs on Windows Phone 7.5 platform.  In this review, I am not going into the
 complete 
mess of hardwares and all. But I will highlight some most important features and
specifications the 
phone provides:
  • The phone has a 4″ TFT capacitive touch screen
  • The phone runs on an 800 MHz processor with 256 MB RAM
  • The phone features a 5 MP camera with auto-focus,Geo tagging and face detection
  • The phone has 4 GB internal memory as well as 7 GB of free storage with Skydrive 
  • (Sky drive is the cloud service provided by microsoft)
  • The phone has a 1300 mAh battery, providing 6 hours talk time in 2G and 9 hours in 3G
  • And I would like to clearly specify that the phone has bluetooth V2.1
It is the cheapest smartphone among the Nokia Lumia series of smartphones.
 The hardware is good
 but, it is reduced to fit the budget. The overall performance is good.
As we all know, the smartphone market is dominated by Samsung and its budget
android phones as
 well as the premium high priced phones and tablets are performing too well and
 Nokia has launched 
this phone at low price to somehow gain its position back and survive in the market.
If you are the hardcore fan of Nokia, this phone is worth buying. It is value for money.
But one thing I will like to mention is that, no matter how hard nokia is trying to make its
Lumia better, 
and they have done it so far but, it runs on windows platform which in comparison with
android is 
definitely lagging.
Andoird, today is the best mobile o.s. and you should prefer it if you
 are buying your first smartphone or haven’t used android yet. But, 
for Windows lover it is a good buy!

[GUIDE]Crack Pattern/Password lock of Android without root and with USB Debugging off




Reset Android Pattern/Password/Pin lock (without even root and USB Debugging Disable)


PHP Code:
I am not responsible for your device being deadyou flashing stock ROMyou using your device as a brick, or any harm to any informationpersonal or intellectual propertyterrorismvandalismtheft, or any other thing by use or misuse of this mod.
This guide is for educational purpose only  


Introduction


It sucks when you forget your passwords

But Gmail account can save you. But what for those who don't have it?

There are some methods to reset them

Wiping data being most popular

But, why loosing precious data when there is a easier or easiest to do method



This is a new method found and tested by me on a rooted device but the resources it uses are available to be used without root too, so it may work on unrooted devices too. 


This method uses Aroma File Manager by amarullz in Recovery Mode of the device to delete the password database related files. So, it should work on all devices! 

So, first you need to download AROMA FILE MANAGER from this thread :-



Aroma File Manager

Credits:-




amarullz for Amazing Aroma File Manager
m.sabra for information about which files are related to passwords and pattern

iamareebjamal xda






Instructions:-





1. Download Aroma File Manager.
2. Place it in the root of your sdcard(Preferred)
3. Reboot into recovery
4. For CWM:



Mount all partitions (including sd-ext if you have it)

And flash Aroma File Manager from sdcard

For stock recovery(Samsung e3):


In stock recovery, there is no option to mount partitions, so

Flash Aroma File Manager, Click on menu option and go to settings

Select Mount All Partitions

Now, exit from Aroma File Manager and reflash it.

Now, you will see each partition is mounted
5. Now, go to /data/system

Note : If you have sd-ext mod to increase internal storage, go to /sd-ext/system/
6. Now, If you have to remove pattern lock, long press and delete gesture.key

If you want to remove password, delete password.key
7. Exit the Aroma File Manager
8. Reboot
9. Enjoy

This is a stunning phone launched recently by Micromax. It has a very good design and the

 is 20,000 
Rs. , this is the best, you can just go for it!!!!
Micromax Canvas Turbo has 1.5 GHz Cortex-A7 Quad Core processor which is very powerful
and 
fast. And to complement the CPU, it has 2 GB RAM. The touchscreen is awesome with 1080p
IPS 
CGS (Continuous Grain Silicon) Display. Micromax Canvas Turbo has 13 MP Rear Camera

amazing!!!

Installation instructions:

WARNING: Flashing this ROM will make the orange triangle appear and increase the flash counter. 
Flash at your own risk, I am not responsible for your actions. Follow the instructions below ONLY if YOU 
are sure of what you are doing. Otherwise stop here. You can reset the counter and remove the triangle 
using the app developed by chainfire (triangle remover).


Installation Details & HowTo:

- The GT-S7562 has a download mode and a recovery mode. Both are boot modes that allow the device to 
start but enter a different configuration mode than regular Android start mode. Think of them like starting
 your PC and entering the BIOS instead of loading Windows as usual.
- The "download mode" is a boot mode that allows flashing bit-by-bit (very low level) data to partitions on
 your device. To enter download mode on the S7562 do the following: make sure the device is well charged
 (over 50%); remove all cables (this is important); power it off (don't reboot); hold volume down + home and
 power on the device (volume down+home+power). Then a warning will be displayed on screen. You must
 press Volume Up to enter download mode.
- As long as you can enter "download mode" you can recover your device. While in download mode, you
 can use the ODIN tool to flash recovery, boot and ROM images.
- The "recovery mode" is a boot mode that allows "safe mode" changes to be performed on the device. 
This is done using CWM, a tool that can be used to automate Android system changes to system files, partitions etc. To enter recovery mode on the S7562 do the following: make sure the device is well 
charged (over 50%); remove all USB cables (this is important); power it off (don't reboot); keep volume
 up + volume down + home and power on your device.
- To navigate in recovery mode, use the volume buttons to change active selection and the home button
 to make selections. The back button works as back button. When done working with recovery, go back
 all the way and select option to reboot system to boot your device normally.
- Before installing KyleOpen ROM, make sure you are running XXBMD6 as base ROM. If you skip
 this step, you may have network and signal problems after installing KyleOpen ROM. So, download the
 ROM image here and flash it from download mode using ODIN and PDA button BEFORE you continue!!!
  1. Download to your PC the custom recovery image that enables CWM, if you don't have it already, from here
  2. Reboot in download mode to flash CWM
  3. Unzip the file in your computer and start ODIN.
  4. Click the PDA button and select the "kyleopen-cwm5-v3.tar.md5" file.
  5. Connect your phone that is already in download mode. ODIN will display it as being connected
  6.  on a COM port.
  7. Do not change any other options. Just click the "Start" button and wait. In about 1 minute, on 
  8. your device there will be a loading bar displayed. Once done the phone will reboot itself normally
  9. . ODIN will tell you the flash was OK and restart your device. This operation will increase the flash counter and make the orange warning triangle appear. This is normal and is not a problem. 
  10. From this point on, you can boot in recovery mode and flash CWM zips.
  11. Let the phone restart normally and boot up completely. Now you are ready to upgrade your 
  12. stock ROM to KyleOPEN ROM.

Update Instructions:
  • Make sure you are running a proper stock ROM (like XXBMD6 or any version of KyleOPEN 
  • ROM)
  • Download the OTA update utility app attached to this post and install it if you didn't already.
  • Run the KyleOpen Tools and check for updates. If your ROM does not have root access it's
  •  gonna be slow to start and may not show the proper information, but the update check and 
  • download will work just fine.
  • Download the update and save it.
  • Press reboot in recovery mode.
  • Install the downloaded zip.
  • Clear cache and davlik cache.
  • Reboot system.
  • Hit the thanks button or you will be ignored in the thread!

Note: The recovery ZIP also contains the stock recovery image. The stock ROM can also be found onhttp://www.sammobile.com

Mirrors for use without OTA updater:

Alternate download methods in case you don't want or can't use the OTA update utility can be 
found below. Download the ZIP files, copy them to your device and reboot in CWM to flash them.

FAQ & Known Issues:
  • I am on stock version XXXXXX, will KyleOPEN ROM work? - I have no idea. Try it and report back. In case you get network problems try a different base. Use XXBMD6 as base whenever possible.
  • What baseband is supported - Baseband is not affected by this ROM, it does not change it and any baseband version is compatible.
  • My CSC is "unknown", why? - That is normal and the phone works correctly. It works in roaming and all providers.
  • My phone requests unlock code - You must unlock EFS to use it on other networks if you purchased it on a contract. This ROM does not unlock your network.
  • Notification quickbuttons missing - This is normal. If you want them back flash the "Stock Samsung Theme v1" add-on in post #3 below.
  • I want stock theme back! - If you want the stock icons and colors back, then flash the "Stock Samsung Theme v1" add-on in post #3 below.
  • Direct Call widgets don't work - These widgets are part of the Trebuchet launcher and only work on CM9. In KyleOPEN, they will not work, due to a couple of intent security limitations. There is no workaround for this problem. If this is bothering you, use another launcher or don't use these widgets.
  • Browser white address bar problem - I have no idea what causes this. It is only for some browsers. Use Google Chrome to avoid this problem.
  • Cannot change lock screen wallpaper - Go to settings->wallpaper and choose to change both wallpapers. Apply any live wallpaper. Then set a new wallpaper with your favorite app. Alternately, install stock gallery (see post #3 belov), change lock screen wallpaper and then remove or disable it.
  • Where is kernel OC??? - The default ROM package starting with version 3.1 does not come with OC as it's unstable and not all users need it. For OC support, install a compatible kernel with OC support from post #3 below.
  • How can I get back to stock? - You must download a compatible image from samfirmware.com and flash it using ODIN.
  • XXXX doesn't work correctly, what can I do? - Follow the installation steps in the first post. There are no known bugs (things that don't work) in the ROM.
  • Some applications force close after installing the ROM - This happens because you did not follow the installation steps provided. Reboot in recovery mode and clear cache and dalvik cache.

Resolved Issues:
  
  • Front-facing camera photos - Camera app can't switch to front facing camera. This is because of the MIUI camera app and is intended. Front facing camera works in other apps such as Skype.
  • Camera recent photo - After taking a picture using the stock camera only the Samsung Gallery can be used to open the recent photo (bottom corner preview). Will be replaced by MIUI camera in the next update to allow camera integration with any gallery app.
  • Default browser and all apps that require WebKit - Netflix authentication, 9GAG Facebook login, default browser and any other app that relies on WebKit will crash. I have no clue what breaks this but I am looking into it.
  • Signal lost and call problems on *some* devices - Reported by multiple ROM users. Seems to happen only in some areas and might be related to CSC or the modem version being used. I have no way of testing this and might take some time to find a fix because of this. I am considering moving to a new base and see if this fixes the problem. Might also be kernel-related...

List of compatible Themes:

Flash the themes by rebooting in recovery mode and using CWM to install ZIP. It's a good idea to clear caches and dalvik before testing them out:
List of compatible Add-Ons:

These add-ons provide additional functionality to the ROM and do not bork already existing features. None of them are mandatory and you can install only the ones you want. To remove an add-on that was flashed using CWM, simply reinstall the KyleOPEN ROM again and the add-ons you want to keep. There is no other way to uninstall a CWM package with ease.
  
  • Remove menu-to-kill feature - Flash using CWM. This will disable the feature to kill running apps by holding the menu button.
  • FaceUnlock - Flash with CWM. Will enable face unlock in security settings after boot.
  • CM9 Gallery - Flash with CWM. Installs the CM9 gallery and video player.
  • CM9 Apollo Media Player - Flash with CWM. Installs the CM9 media player Apollo.
  • Stock Gallery - Flash with CWM. Installs the stock Samsung Gallery (allows you to change wallpapers and everything)
  • Stock Keyboard - Flash with CWM. For those of you that miss the stock Samsung keyboard.
  • Stock Launcher (TW) - Flash with CWM. Installs the stock launcher and hogs the phone again. Also for the nostalgic types.
  • MIUI Camera - Flash with CWM. Replaces stock Samsung camera to fix recent photo bug. Does not support 5MP mode and cannot be configured to save photos to SD.
  • Swap SD cards - Flash with CWM. Switches the internal memory and external microSD cards between them to allow downloading of HD games and apps that need lots of space on the internal SD. BEWARE: Doing this will automatically make the kernel go haywire and battery impact is considerable. You will not see the errors (apps run fine), but the phone will enter sleep mode very rarely due to the checks it does constantly. However, it is completely safe and no functionality is lost (thanks to hybridmd for the init.d script!)
  • Samsung S Voice - Copy to device and flash using CWM zip installation. Original work and hacks by Wanam for SGS2.
  • Stock Samsung Theme v1 - Flash using CWM to revert to how the phone UI looks while stock.
  • Blue ICS Theme v1 - Flash using CWM. Changes the touch sounds from the annoying bubbles to CM9 sounds, changes boot animation to Nexus 7 one, changes UI to blue theme and remake of SIM icons (not in settings yet). Screens attached. This is the default since v2.x of the ROM so there will be no change if you flash it.
  • All removed APKs - Flash with CWM. This 120MB package includes all removed APKs from the stock ROM. Flashing this will undo my work in 30 seconds, making your phone near stock, but deodexed.

List of other compatible packages (not mine, not tested, don't ask about them):
  

List of compatible kernels:

Please note: Regular users should stick with the kernel version included in the ROM by default. If you encounter issues with any of these other kernels, flash the ROM again using CWM to restore the default kernel.
  • GitHub link to the KyleOpen 4.0.4 Kernel: https://github.com/cheatman-xda/kyleopen-kernel
  • KyleOPEN Kernel v5 - Stock kernel with additional CPU governors, overclocking support, init.d script support, root enabled. Flash directly with ODIN. Credits go to VamshiStunner for his work on governors in this kernel version.NOTE: Although it seems to have OC, it is not working. Setting OC values will not boost the phone's performance as it will run at 1GHz no matter how you configure it.
  • KyleOpen ROM Kernel OC1 - Bleeding edge kernel with increased sensitivity, all features activated and custom boot logo image. Only for the hardcore fans and power-users of KOR that know what they're doing.
  • xvasek2 - Breakfast Kernels - OC Kernels for everyone, plenty of speeds to choose from. If you really want OC and can't get around with any setup, use these kernels confidently. Don't forget to follow the instructions and check your balls (or instincts for the ladies!) before you proceed. All kernels should be flashed using ODIN.
