 We all love music , quality music even sounds greater and is addictive. In this post im going to give some tips on how to get most of your music experience and enjoy life!!

So lets get straight ahead and lets get started, Here are the some few tips you can try.

Tip 1 : Tweak your Favorite music player

Enhance sounds

You can tweak your favorite  music player to get best of it , You can set equalizer to bass booster enhance the sound quality and set sound mode to high definition. I use iTunes so i'll be taking you through tweaking my favorite music player. Simply follow the steps below:

Step 1: Open up iTunes preferences
Step 2: Under iTunes preferences click on Playback tab
Step 3: drag the sound enhancer button to high (double click on image below to play)

Adjust equalizer settings

After you have enhanced your sound then its time to get a serious equalizer tweak for adjusting and applying equalizer effects just follow the simple steps below:

Step 1: click on window tab and then choose equalizer
Step 2: Choose your favorite equalizer setting in my case it's bass booster ( you may try bass booster its awesome)


Tip 2: Balance your stereo speakers/headphones 
Since left ear can hear music quite good than your right ear so balancing your stereo speakers to left might help a lot. Since im using OSX i'll be taking you through its steps ,you can perform similar task on sound settings under control panel on windows OS.

Step 1: Open up preferences
Step 2: Click on sound icon
Step 3: Now drag the button to left (click on image below to play)
It really worked for me , You give it a try if it doesn't works for you then use the default settings provided.

Tip 3: Always download high quality songs

If you want to enjoy good music with greater sound quality you can buy them , never download songs from website , if you want high quality songs you can get them on torrent( i don't recommend you doing this , its illegal) be sure to choose songs that are more than 200 kbps in bit rate.

Tip 4: Never download songs from particular website that gives you songs free of cost

Though this might not be applicable for all but it's the same on most of the website , the songs you get on those websites are mis labelled, without artwork , without artist name without album name and are of very low quality.

Tip 5: Use better headphones
Only using the better sounds might not work using better head phones gives you better boost to excellent hearing pleasure, I can recommend you to go through bose headphone they are cheap( not that cheap BTW) and produce better sound than any other headphones , Apple headphones works quite fine.

Reasons to choose Google chrome over other browsers

Its been since 4 years that google started  web browser Chrome and  it's already a big hit. In this post i'm going to list some strong  reasons, why you should go for  chrome.


1. It has got a good user interface, simple , yet good looking.I like its UI very much its sleek and simple.

2. Its way faster than any other browser, Its advanced caching abilities and faster javascript execution makes it fastest browser on the planet.

3. It supports for thousands of awesome addons like: ad blocker,Youtube video downloader and other awesome games on chrome web store.

4. Chrome has better memory handling than any other web browsers, you can open as many tabs you like, the crashing of one single tab won't affect another.

5. It has better security and has won several security awards , still we arguably can say it as  a most secured web browsers since all browsers have their own security policies.

6. You can sync your all bookmarks using your email-address , then they are stored in cloud so that you can access them from any devices.

7. Google chrome does not requires external flash it means it is pretty secured.(well you know how many times adobe exploits have been discovered basically on flash)

8. Google chrome has been a universal browser which is available on most of the platforms windows, mac,android and iOS.

Those are the only few reasons that you can choose to use chrome, however choosing a web browser depends upon your own needs , firefox fans user firefox for its versatility , addons compatibility and since it's a open source, many users modify for their own needs , like wise the new safari in mountain lion is way faster than chrome since safari is discontinued for windows you cant use safari in windows anymore.

Which browser do you think is the best?  , what are the reasons behind them? let me know in the comment section  below.

Making most of jailbroken iphone

It has become too mainstream to jailbreak an iphone , we jailbreak iphone to allow running of  third party apps that are not verified by apple hence you can add more of tweaks , customize the way you want , insert themes , get apps for free, add shortcuts and much more. Even today some of the people jailbreak because its mainstream to do so , but they are unware of the fact that doing so allows third party app to run. In this post i'm writing on how to make most of jail broken iPhone.

1. Privacy

Message lock, Sms lock
It is available on cydia also if you add cydia.xsellize.com you can get for free. For those who is unaware of adding sources to cydia you can get help from here. After you added source just search for message lock. this application secures  message app with simple pass code and secured pass code so that others can't see your conversation and other sexting stuffs (if you have one).

App locker: This application allows you to lock all the applications on your idevices thus maintaining privacy protecting your personal information, since apple doesnot allow this functionality its is recommended that you also get one. It's available in cydia paid or free depending on sources.

2. Facial recognition 
With this app you can unlock your device your device by your face insted of traditional passcode methods. Is'nt it cool ?, you must give it a try before you get started this app trains you how to position correctly and you are good to go.

3. AD blocker
you may get ADs on apps that you got on appstore for free, with this app from cydia you could block all those annoying ADs on all of the applications of course you can individually select on which app to block ADs and even you can block ADs on youtube and safari.

4. Interface tweak 

Dream board
This is an awesome app from cydia with this app and others themes downloaded you can make your iphone interface look like htc, android phone, windows phone and even MACOSX and windows too.

winterboard
With this awesome app you can individually customize themes ,change icons on home screen, change fonts and much more , If you have cydia installed on your phone then this is a must have, Also you can check out must have cydia apps here.

5. Lock screen optimize

Intelli screen X
This is a paid cydia app but if you get it from xsellize repo you can get it for free, Its my personal favorite you can customize your lock screen so that you can unlock using different gestures and in different styles.

Android lock
With this app you can unlock any idevice with android lock system

Fold to lock
This app allows you to unlock your device by folding your lock screen.

6. Shortcuts

 SB setting
This is an awesome app , using this app you can turn on/off WiFi, Bluetooth, 3G, adjust brightness just by double tapping on the status bar you don't need to go to settings and do the rest of lengthy process.

7. Tweak siri
With the siri themes available on winterboard you can make siri look quite different and you can add custom commands to siri.

8. Others
With your jail broken device you can add  cool screen animation with barrel , you can add good looking black keyboard, download and add widget to your lock screen , you can add widgets to your notification center, you can also post status directly from your notification center.

security measures after jailbreaking your iphone

After jail breaking you allow all the third parties to install and give them a freedom and main thing you forget is that your device is not up to apple anymore. If you really care about security i don't recommend you to jailbreak your device, however in long run jail breaking and finding exploits would lead IOS making more secure.
 To secure up your jailbroken device simply do through the processes/steps below

1. Change root passwords: I would highly recommend doing this , If you have installed open SSH on your devices then it is highly important that you change its default password. Else you have pretty big chance that you are getting hacked!! . The steps and details on changing root/SHH password can be found here>>

2. Repo : It is recommended that you dd sources only  from verified and legal repos , like i already said after jailbreak you leave your device to third party and let them gain freedom , to not happen this   do not add sources from unverified repos and do not install apps from those repos.

3. Third party apps: do not believe apps like apps that claim to update status from notification center and so on they may update status but keep track of you all the time stealing your confidential information.

4. Lockdown app: If you really care for privacy install this app from cydia store itself ,this app locks up apps ,messages and photos not letting any people go thorough your iphone.

How to change SSH password on iphone ?

What is a SSH?
It is a network protocol for secure data communication over insecure networks, It is used for remote command execution , remote shell services and acts as a secure network  between networked machines.

Why is SSH necessary ?
Like I stated before it is used for secure file transfer between devices and mostly when it comes to hacking "remote command execution".

Most of the iphone users who have their iphone jailbroken install open SHH , Ifile and more than 90% of them forget to change their default SSH password. Where the real trouble begins ,Before we get started on how to change SSH password i would like to tell you why changing SSH password is necessary, simply it is because most of the hackers know the default password (which is same on all iOS devices) they use your default password and do sort of port scanning from their machine and use SSH clients to find if your device is vulnerable and  finally gaining access to your iphone stealing all your confidential information like notes, contacts and mainly your private photos. And thats how you are hacked!!

You look WTH now ,dont you ? You probably might want to change as quickly as you can now, Do not worry by following these quick  steps you can  easily change SSH password.

note : this is only for jailbroken iphones for non-jailbroken iphones dont worry you are more safer on the hands of apple.

Step 1: Open up cydia and search for mobile terminal





Step 2: Tap on install


step 3: Tap on confirm

Step 4: wait until the process is complete


Step 5: open up the mobile terminal you just downloaded using cydia.

Step 6: Type in "su root" without quotes

Step 7: Type in "alpine" (alpine is the default password for all idevices using open SHH) in password field then tap return.

Step 8: type in "passwd" and then tap return


Step 9: type in the new password you want to change to

You are done , hope you successfully changed your SSH password, if you are in trouble then let me know in the comments below.

Maintaining privacy online.

Maintaining privacy online is a big challenge today , may websites like facebook, twitter , google advertisement track your interest , location , your activity and much more the know you more than your daddy, when you access internet ? what location are you currently in ? , how much devices you access web from? , what time you wake up? , what are you planning for vacation?, who are you with ?, well thats enough said , well if you really care for privacy you might want to go through rest of my tutorial.

1. Use anonymous proxy : You can use anonymous web proxy websites like www.hidemyass.com , www.atunnel.com  they simply change your ip address to anonymous ips and secure your connection using SSL connections. Anonymous proxies  fake  your original IP address to fake IP address. Now you gain much of anonymity here and good thing is that its a completely free.

2. Dns and proxy settings for web browsers : You can edit proxy settings on your web browsers to remain anonymous online. know how to edit proxy settings on google chrome browser over here.

3. Use of proxy softwares : You can use proxy softwares like security kiss , Tunnel bear , uno telly free , Tor free download. just edit the settings and just a single click will give you instance access to proxy feature.

4. Use of VPN services : Vpn stands for a virtual private network. It is highly secure , whenever you are out of your home and office , you can use VPN services .To use VPN services you can use softwares like hamachi VPN  service (you can download the personal version on the web for free). To use this service you have to install the software on two computers ,one on the home computer that is always ON and other computer the one that you carry with. If you are in coffee shop and your are accessing internet with turned on VPN, all the passwords you enter forms and datas are securely transfered to server, they cannot be sniffed or stolen by using man on the middle attacks like ARP spoofing / poisoning. Basically,  When VPN services are used then it makes act like your travel computer is  using the internet through your home computer rather than router present on the coffee shop you are sitting at.

5. SHH tunnel : secure and trusted networks are not always available , so here i will show you how to keep pop3 , IMAP and passwords safe and prevent them form snarfing.

SHH tunnel is a secure tunneling protocol that creates a secure data travel path within unsecured/untrusted networks.

You dont have to be a hard core unix geek to create a shh tunnel , software made easy - You can download shh tunnel manager and with a click of a button you are good to go the Hell !! secure way!!

How to completely remove traces from your computer?

You might have done things that you think that are private and confidential  on your computer and majority of people think that once it is done is done but it is completely not true. The tasks you carry out  are stored on a temporary memory or on a ram or somewhere on your hard disk. Your browsing history, Played movies, Open applications, deleted fotos are stored for a temporary use on some location. By knowing this you probably might want some hardcore privacy , In this tutorial ill be teaching you some privacy stuffs and get work done without leaving any traces on your computer. Just follow through the rest of the process below.

1. Clean up browsing history: Every website you visit are recorded by your web browser,  It is necessary that you clean   up browsing history to remain least anonymous . You can also use Private browsing feature available in safari , Private browsing does not records any history and cookies from visited websites also you can disable syncing on google chrome to prevent it from tracking you.

2. Clear recent items: To remain untracked you can clear recent items on windows to clear it press "windows +R" then type "recent" without quotes these items are the items that you are using recently, delete all those item of course to remove tracking and also to free up some memory on your computer.

3. Use third party apps : It is ideal that you use third party apps like Ccleaner its my personal best and most recommended that you use it and of course it is completely free , Also you can use softwares like tuneup utilities to clean files and remove up traces. These softwares can delete browsing history of all web browsers, Cookies, Temporary files even used by third party apps like Vlc, Skype and lot more.

4. Formatting:  You might be thinking that formatting a pendrive might permanently delete  the data stored on it then  you are on hugely misguided , actually you can use softwares like recuva to recover your data even from completely formatted pendrive. So when you format a pendrive format your pendrive make sure that you format pendrive not faster but n higher level of security , this feature is available on macosx (industry standard security) but you can use third party softwares on windows like ccleaner.

Note: Privacy apps and security helps you not to get tracked  however nothing is perfect, it depends on a person that how much he cares for his  privacy.
