This section carefully teaches you how to monitor your mobile phone or devices data usage.

Like most of us, some of us might actually knew some of the ways am going to be sharing with us how to limit, control or monitor our phone data usage.

Some of the methods includes but not limited to the following:

i. Disabling the automatically app update on Google play store

ii. Read the update details before updating any app that requires an update: because, this actually allows you to see what the newly updates were before downloading them if you requires it since some major updates are mere fixes and stuffs, so is not necessarily compulsory that you update your apps if rolled out updates are fix meant to address issues your phone might not be having.

iii. Limiting the number of unwanted apps that you download

iv. Android users: Changing your android device IMEI number to a BlackBerry smartphone IMEI number so that you can benefit from the allocated data allowance blackberry mobile phone users are enjoying.

v. Switching off your data whenever you are not using it, going to bed, busy or having a low battery.

vi. Making sure your hotspot isn't put on while your data is active, especially when you haven't properly setup or configured your hotspot for security reasons and data protection.

"5 Things We Can't Resist About Men"

There are some male qualities that women the world over agree are super-hot - and we’re not just talking about washboard abs...

1. His scent
Ever wondered why you like to snuggle in the nook of his armpit so much? Well here’s the (slightly gross) answer. According to research conducted by Monell Chemical Senses Centre in Philadelphia, Women are attracted to the smell of a man’s armpit sweat because underarm sweat contains a complex compound of odourless pheromones that subconsciously affect us. Charles Wysocki, a behavioural neuroscientist at the Centre explains, “Women are more attuned to underarm stink because the biological data it contains helps them choose a mate. Most women are even better at smelling male body odour than female body odours.” Nice!

2. His body language
Whether it’s the way he carries himself, the manner in which he casually brushes his hand through is hair, or just the way he walks, us women are pre-programmed to notice. According to Linda Blair, clinical psychologist and author of Straight Talking “It takes only seven seconds for us to judge another person when we first meet them,” To us, a man who walks tall and is comfortable in his own skin translates as a man who is self-confident – and that’s a hugely attractive trait. Judi James, author of The Body Language Bible, explains “Judging other people in the first few seconds of meeting them is part of our survival response. We’re looking primarily to see if we should feel threatened, but we also make several assumptions about attraction and personality.”

3. His shape
While we’re not necessarily looking for a muscle-bound hunk, there’s something primal about our attraction to his physical form. Whether he’s gym honed or not, if he looks fit and as though he looks after himself, this lets us know that health and well-being are among his priorities – and that’s a massive turn on.  Especially when we’ve got mating on our minds.  In general, most women are also predisposed to liking someone who is physically bigger than they are with broader shoulders and taller in height. This is probably residual hardwiring from our days as cavewomen when we looked to men as protectors and hunter-gatherers.

4. His sense of humour
A recent study by Northumbria University showed that women use humour as an indication of a guy's intelligence which goes some way to explaining the enormous popularity of “GSOH” as a dating requirement for so many women’s dating profiles. "Intelligence is a very attractive quality as a clever man should be more able to provide resources for his offspring.” Explains Kristofor McCarty who led the study.  But gentlemen be warned, while we like a man who can make us laugh, a cruel wit that makes jokes at the expense of others or denigrates and puts us down is not something we find attractive.

5. His ambitious streak
We’re attracted to men with a drive to succeed for many reasons. Firstly it shows he’s passionate about something and while it may not be you (yet), it’s a sign that he’s capable of commitment. A strong work ethic demonstrates a sense of responsibility – another positive indication for selecting a life partner. Ambition also reveals a healthy sense of get-up-and go. It shows that he’s not content just hanging out with his mates down the pub and that he aspires towards something more - the desire to make things happen and improve his life. There isn’t a woman alive who doesn’t find that attractive.

1. ON EARNING: Never depend on single income. Make investment to create a second chance.

2. ON SPENDING: If you buy things you do not need, soon you will have to sell things you need.

3. ON SAVINGS: Do not save what is left after spending, but spend what is left after saving.

4. ON TAKING RISK:
Never test the depth of a river with both feet.

5. ON INVESTMENT: Do not put all eggs in one basket.

6. ON EXPECTATIONS:
Honesty is a very expensive gift. Do not expect it from cheap people.

7. IF YOU are depressed, you are living in the past. If you are anxious, you are living in the future. If you are at peace, you are living in the present. Past is a waste paper. Present is a newspaper and future is a question paper.

8. WHEN bad things happen in your life you have three choices. You can either let it define you, let it destroy you or you can let it strengthen you.

9. EMPTY pockets teach you a million things in life but full pockets spoil you in a million ways.

10. OUR EYES are in the front because it is more important to look ahead than to look back.

11. WE USED a pencil when we were small but now we use pens... do you know why? Because mistakes in childhood can be erased but not now.

So read and write carefully otherwise life will be a tissue paper. Hope you are blessed. Bless others.

Note that, data roaming fees usually applies even if you are traveling domestically within some regions in the same country, especially if coverage isn't available for that carrier in that region since people always think that they're in a clear as per roaming concerning in such situations.

For instance, you can be charged a roaming fees; for example, England service provider can charge roaming fees if you go to Ireland if there's no cell towers over there.

Another good example is: a cruise ship which uses their own satellite antennas, so you may be charged by your cell provider as much as £2 to 3 per minute for any data usage or voice calls while onboard their cruise ship.

So, continue to Step: If you are unsure what your roaming status would be.

i. Contact your cell phone provider or researching their roaming policies online is essential because fees and policies varies.

You should probably confirm also before you travel that, your phone will work at your end destination and that your plan has the appropriate features for international roaming, if applicable.

For example, I know that, T-Mobile uses a GSM technology prevalent in most countries, my cell phone would work overseas.

However, I didn't know that I needed to contact T-Mobile to have the international roaming add-on (which is free on their service) activated.

ii. Now that you have the roaming details from your service provider, consider your voice and data usage needs for this trip.

Do you need to be able to make and receive calls? Do you need real- time GPS, Internet access, or other data services on your device? Will you have access to wi-fi hotspots or Internet cafes and therefore, you can use wi-fi on your device instead of using the cellular data service?

How you proceed depends on how you will be using your device on your trip.

iii. If you want to be able to make and receive phone calls, but don't need data services on your trip, turn "data roaming" and "data synchronization" off on your device(s).

These options will most likely be found in your device general settings or your devices connectivity settings from main menu or settings.

My MTK Technology M3 phone, an Android smartphone, the data roaming feature is found under Settings > Wireless &  Network settings > Mobile Networks > Data Roaming.

While the data sync setting is under the Settings > Google Sync > Background Data Auto-Sync (this allows the phone to automatically sync all enabled settings like: the calendar, contacts, and activated email(s); it's on by default). Your menus will likely be similar to mine.

iv. Keep in mind that even if you turn off data roaming and data sync, third-party apps can still turn these back on. Therefore, you need to be sure you don't have any apps installed that will override your data roaming settings. If all you want to do is make/receive phone calls and you're not absolutely sure you don't have any apps that would turn data roaming back on, consider leaving your phone at home (turned off) and renting a cell phone just for your trip or renting a different SIM card for your cell phone .

Alternately, if you won't be making outgoing calls but just want to be reachable, follow the step below to have access to voicemail over wi-fi.

v. Enabling the phone flight or Airplane Mode if you just want wi-fi access saves you battery. Airplane Mode turns off the cellular and data radio, but on most devices you can leave wi-fi on. So, if you'll have wireless Internet access (e.g., in your hotel or perhaps a free Wi-Fi hotspot like a coffeeshop), you can still go online with your device and avoid the data roaming charges.

Virtual phone features found in the section VoIP software/services and web apps like Google Voice can come handy during this period since it allows you to have a phone number that can be forwarded to voicemail and sent to you in form of a sound file via email, which you can check whenever you're connected to any available wi-fi access.

vi. If you do need cellular data access, e.g.: Internet access outside of wi-fi hotspots or GPS, turn data roaming on only when you use it, and after you should put your device in flight Mode, as above, and then when you need to download data put your phone back to its default data-mode that you are now connected to.

vii. Monitor your mobile data usage with an app or special using a USSID dial-in number assigned by your carrier.

Several smartphone apps for Android, iPhone, and BlackBerry can track your data usage, some can also track your voice and texts usages.

Sharing your PC internet to your other devices comes easy because, Microsoft already equipped their windows operating system with the right apparatus to get the job done, and reason why people shares their internet connections are not far fetch because, some wants to cut cost of monthly subscription and or want to share it with their friends or siblings around them and whatever case your is, I like it when people wants something and they just strife for it and go after it because of the saying, if you want something done, you have to do it yourself.

Procedures:
Go to start menu > then the Control Panel, look around for the "Network and sharing centre, then click to open the Manage wireless networks, Its on the second list on the image below:

After that, it will take you to the next windows where you need to 
To click on "Add" to enter where the main configuration is:

The main configuration has two interface for you choose from and they are Ad-hoc or Manual, so, click "Next" once until you reach the next where you are required to select either the Ad-hoc part because, the manual part is if you are trying to connect to a wireless and not you sharing, once that is selected, give it a name and assign a password. As seen in the image below, the make sure you select a more secure pass and also the password too. Don't make the mistake of selecting open in the password field you as this would allow anybody who see the signal a chance of connecting and using it freely.

Next, remember to mark or tick the save network right below your lower left hand corner of your pc and then click on the next, and you are done. Just launch your device wireless scan, scan for any available using hostpot or the wifi name you created, enter the password you created, and the sign in to the hotspot. 

Note you can connected as many as possibe other devices including laptops but, endeavour to minimise these devices from being too much as it would eventually slow down the server internet speed.
