How to remove this SHIT of myTaxi – Passenger Taxi App on Samsung Galaxy S3

This application got installed without my knowledge by a Samsung update as a System App that CANNOT BE UN INSTALLED!

First before I forgot: Go to hell Samsung and Intelligent Apps GmbH

Back to the removal of MyTaxi,  Samsung did hide taxi.android.client_v2.5.1.apk under the name /system/app/samsung_ch.apk

To remove it

su (enter)
mount -o rw,remount /system (enter)
rm -r /system/app/samsung_ch.apk (enter)

Apple Reality distortion field is now getting more and more ridiculous…

“Apple revolutionized the telecommunications industry in 2007 when it introduced
the wildly popular iPhone, a product that dramatically changed the way people view mobile
phones.  Reviewers, analysts and consumers immediately recognized the iPhone as a “game
changer.”  Before the iPhone, cell phones were utilitarian devices with key pads for dialing and
small, passive display screens that did not allow for touch control.  The iPhone was radically
different.  In one small and lightweight handheld device, it offered sophisticated mobile phone
functions, a multi-touch screen that allows users to control the phone with their fingers, music
storage and playback, a mobile computing platform for handheld applications, and full access to
the Internet.” from http://www.apple.com/pr/pdf/110415samsungcomplaint.pdf

Apple seems to not understand anymore the concept of evolution

• Smaller and lighter is something that any industry is doing all the time
• Better embedded CPU –> lead to faster experience and more capabilities(browser)
• Development of cell phones network –> internet is slowly possible
• Better battery technology –> lead to Bigger screen
• Cheaper euh no Apple is not well known for that

Best and Worst PDAs/Smartphones sorted by radiation levels

Are cell phones safe? Many research groups around the world are working to find out. Your cell phone emits radiation to send voice and text messages from you to the other caller. Some (not all) studies of frequent cell-phone users suggest this radiation may increase risks for cancer or children's behavior problems. Use this guide to find your phone and safer, low-radiation choices. Listing is based on phones currently available from major carriers. You can also see all available phones or all phones (current and legacy) ranked by radiation. [Source http://www.ewg.org/cellphoneradiation/Get-a-Safer-Phone]
