Alibaba’s YunOS is expected to bypass iOS in Chinese mainland by the end of this year. It’s a Linux-based mobile operating system that aims to become the top smartphone operating system in the country. The analysts have also predicted that outside China, YunOS isn’t expected to enter the premium smartphone segment. The chances are slim that you might be knowing about YunOS, the mobile operating system developed by China’s Alibaba group. In a recent development related to YunOS, this relatively newer OS is on the track to gather a 14 per cent share of phone shipments in mainland China. According to forecasts made by analysts, by the end of this year, YunOS will beat iOS to become the second-largest mobile operating system in China. This forecast falls in line with Alibaba’s previous claims that YunOS has already passed iOS. The top YunOS suppliers are Alibaba-backed Meizu, XiaoLaJiao, Strategy Analytics, and Doov. It’s being estimated that the total volume of YunOS-powered smartphon...

The notorious hacking group Anonymous has shared a little guide on Twitter, telling how to hack Donald Trump’s Android smartphone. The guide mentions that Trump’s Samsung Galaxy S3, which run Android 4.4, is outdated. It makes Galaxy S3 easily hackable using techniques like Stagefright.

The various logical drives in Windows are assigned a drive letter. Generally, the drive letter for the first logical drive is C followed by D, E, F. Well, A and B are also alphabets. These drive letters are kept in reserve for some special purpose. Here is the reason. I n the case of Windows and many other operating systems, a physical hard drive–used to install OS files and store data–is divided into partitions. In Windows, these partitions can be formatted using  file systems  like NTFS, FAT32, etc. These partitions are then known as logical drives and they are assigned a drive letter. As far as my tech knowledge is concerned, it started to sprout in the mid-2000s. My first computer came with Windows and, obviously, or as some sort of a tradition, the first drive letter was C.
