    Hey friends... I am back with a new tutorial and this is gonna be fun!!!...

    Zenfone second generation and 3 rd generation devices are capable of awesome camera and you can really click photos like DSLR if you know the correct tips and tricks...

    Before we begin we have to update ur Pixel Master camera app to latest version.. Then only you will see a M icon near by Camera Click Button..

    To enter manual mode press on the M icon..


    If you love photography and wish to grasp every inch of wisdom required to shoot a good picture? Here's a little catching up to do! We bring to you a series of Photography tutorials on ZenTalk! Starting with the Manual Mode, you won't regret taking down notes 

    Before you begin, here's a little tip:

    If you haven't updated the PixelMaster App yet, here's what you're missing out on: 

    The Manual Mode icon 'M' could be seen resting right next to the camera shutter icon! You can now access the Manual Mode real quick!


    Screenshot_2016-01-13-15-00-341.jpg 

    Clicking on the 'M' Manual Mode icon, you should be able to view the highlighted portion which entails the following: Reset, Autofocus, Shutter Speed, ISO, EV and White Balance!

    Screenshot_2016-01-13-15-16-131.jpg 



    The article details each element (Autofocus, Shutter Speed, ISO, EV & White Balance) of the Manual Mode! To make it clear, the article is well demonstrated through images! 

    Note: The Manual Mode does not end with the above listed functions but continues! Read through the below listed points to understand the same!


    Screenshot_2016-01-13-15-54-53.jpg 
    Click on the highlighted portion!

    hyu.jpg 

    Having clicked on the same, you should be able to view the following camera manual optimization options!
    This article covers the following Manual optimization options: Saturation, Contrast, Sharpness, Noise Reduction, Detail Enhancement & Backlight! 


    Now that you've grasped in the the basics of the Manual mode, I'd like to introduce you to another two crucial elements under the Manual Mode. These include:


    1. Guideline
    2. Histogram


    1. Guideline

    Screenshot_2016-01-13-15-59-33 - Copy.jpg 
    Guidelines, is a rather interesting concept! If you wish for a good frame, the Guideline option should be your best help! Let's find out how!

    Screenshot_2016-01-13-17-52-28.jpg The highlighted points of intersection is what should be used to place your subject or object! You could place your subject at either of the points of intersections!

    To understand this better, here's a small demo:

    P_20150105_2342211.jpg If you look closely, I've use the point of intersection to position my subject (Minion toy)! This should help with good compositions



    2. Histogram


    Screenshot_2016-01-13-15-59-331.jpg 
    Have you come across this and never been sure what to do with it? An important element, here's what is stands for:

    Having switched on the Histogram option, you'll see a small little histogram figure on your screen when clicking a picture. 

    PicMonkey Collage1.jpg 

    Histograms sweking to the left would mean that your photo is underexposed!
    PicMonkey Collage2.jpg 
    Whereas histograms skewing to the right would mean that your photo is overexposed


    PicMonkey Collage3.jpg 
    Balanced Histogram would look like this!



    I hope this tutorial will help you for further photography.. I will post More on Camera Optimization.. Keep connected and keep coming to my blog.. Post ur comments about this topic.

    Band Locking on Asus Zenfone 2 Laser Ze550KL. This Method will Pull Highspeed Internet in Every where...

    Today we will learn about a new app that will help you to connect to a High speed Internet everywhere possible,,
    In Order to Understand the APP uses P

    The AAP based Knowledge:

    Every Generation Signals IE: 2g,3g,4g Have some Channel or Frequency through which they cover the Network Range Area.. The characteristicts of signals or challels are like a way of transfering the deta.. The More the frequency the more the Data Transfer Rate..  But There is a Issue.. If the channel Frequency Increased then the Range of the Challen or Friquency cant cover larger area.. In Android OS There is a Default Function that  the mobile only connects to lower friquency because Low Frequency can travel More distance , But that will decrease the Internet speed..
    So Basically we have to lock on a Frequency where we will get more Speed..
    Below are the Bands that Asus Zenfone 2 Supports..

    B1:   2100 ,
    B3:   1800
    B38: TDD 2600  
    B40: TDD 2300
    B41: TDD 2500

    Those are with letter "B" are the band name and the Number you can see the frequency,,, I strongly recommend you to connect to B40 for Higher speed ( I personally experienced the speed upto 10 MBPS..

    Now How to do it... ??

    #NOTE: Your phone must be a Qualcom Chip set phone and also LTE must be Supported..



    1. Download This "Network Signal Guru APP" and install it on you phone..
    2. Your phone must be rooted
    3. then open the app and allow root access
    4. now click on 3 Dots on Right top side and then press on Band Locking..
    5. Now Tick the band you would like to use. for example we will use Band 40 for better speed and band 38 for better network covrage..
    6. Tick on band 40 and wait for a minute...
    7. Signals wll come and now you will see you have significance Speed Increased in this band locking method.. 
    #NOTE: Its not the tutorial for extending JIO 1GB limit. Its just a tutorial to always connect to a fastest band so upto 1 GB the Internet speed will be more then 10 MBps.. This is the targer....

    I hope guys you all have learned something from this post. I will be back with more Good Posts.. Stay tuned and if you have any thing to say then comment below i will try to answer your quries or you can have live chat with me...

    2.  Install Apps when you need them and then delete if you are no longer using them.

    Android M is a big Target for Asus to be completed by Q2 of 2016. Some of the device also got update but the ammount of bugs is infinite.
    After looking for few weeks Asus have pulldown the update on OTA as well as in the website too.
    ZenTalk forms filled of complain reports, So moderaors have only one thing to say that" There is some server issue so update is not avilable for now and there is no fixed time for the update procedure to start". We will know that the problem is in Android M not in server :D


    So after a week of this cenario a new update notification apear on some Laser devices. And now i can see that the Moderator have been posted the details about new update on ZenTalk

    About the ZE551ML / ZE5500ML asus is not saying anything. Its becuase this device is on the top list of BUGS. So Zenfone 2 users have to wait till Asus consider somthing about it.

    Even the version are same but the new update file which is recently uploaded to Asus website is diffrent. The size of the First update file is 1.56GB and the one which is uploaded at 1/7/2016 is 1.62GB so i am thinking that there is some modificatin have done by Asus so those peoples who have already upgraded they can Dowgrade from THIS tutorial and download the new file and update again.. There might be some bug fix but as per reports the Battery drainage is still a problem.

    Download LINK: ZE550KL Other Models Download Link will be Available SOON.


    Version WW-21.40.1220.1708(andriod M)

    File Size1.62 GBytesupdate 2016/07/01

    Android M update in Asus Zenfone Series is a great thing. Through which I could not find any major update. As I Expected that Asus will include RAW Image feature but no, They didn't.

    Meanwhile, a lot of other users are experiencing problems like Battery Drainage, Camera problem etc. So I decided to make a tutorial on Downgrading.
    I have tested this on my Zenfone 2 Laser ZE550KL and it works.
    I have Downgraded From Version V21.40.1220.1615 to 1.12.40..349


    INSTRUCTIONS:

    Download Your respective phone FIRMWARE from Asus Website.


    1.  Put that into phones External Storage
    2.  Turn off the phone and go to recovery mode.
    3.  Press on "Apply Update from SDcard" 
    4.  Now Wait for a while it will complete the installation.
    5. If it shows any error then move back to older version of Downgrade firmware.

    That's all guys. I hope you have done the above tutorial successfully. If you found any problem then please comment below.
