Instagram finally landed on Android
At that time, he said that the arrival Instagram for Android will happen soon. He even promises faster performance on the Google's operating system. Want a taste? Instagram for Android can be downloaded at Google Play, of course, available for free.

The app is very simple to use. You just open it up and capture a photo or select one that you already took. You can then add various filters, add borders and share your creation on Twitter, Facebook, Tumblr, Posterous, Foursquare or via e-mail.

You can also build followers within Instagram’s social network, where people can like and comment on your pictures. The tab with the star icon will show you the most popular photos on the network from other users, while the heart bubble icon will show you the latest creations from your friends.

In comparison to its iPhone counterpart, Instagram for Android is still missing a couple of features. It has the same filters and community features as the iOS version, but the Android app lacks features such as Tilt/Shift and Flickr integration, which should be available in subsequent updates.



There is no harm in trying some alternative Instagram apps on Android devices, to other image processing applications that are not less interesting.

5 alternative Instagram for Android users

While waiting for the arrival of Instagram on Android devices, there is no harm in trying some alternative to other image processing applications that are not less interesting.

5 alternative Instagram for Android usersSince many people infatuated with the use of instant photo editing applications, as developers compete to create applications with a variety of filters and features. Indeed, many photo applications intended for Android, and the fifth application below are some of them:

1. Pixlr-O-Matic
Instagram has 18 filters, a few focusing tools, and borders that give photos that retro look. Do more with Pixlr-O-Matic’s 68 filters, 73 lighting effects and 193 borders.
Once your photo has been customized, share it with any of your social platforms, or upload it to imm.io, Pixlr’s own imgur.com clone, for a quick link.

2. Hipster
Just like Instagram, Hipster offers a bunch of great pre-configured filter and border combinations that make customizing photos easy. But unlike Instagram, you can also add text over the image, making your photos more like postcards that can be emailed and shared across the big social networks or to the worldwide Hipster community.

3. Lightbox Photos
On Instagram, your account is either private or public. With Lightbox, you get all the cool photo filters and effects, plus the choice to make each individual photo private, viewable by friends only or visible to anyone.
Aside from following other Lightbox users, you can link your Twitter and Facebook accounts to see photos from your friends, even if they don’t have Lightbox accounts, making it a convenient social site photo gallery.

4. Streamzoo
If you’re looking for the closest thing to an Instagram clone, Streamzoo is probably it. The app has great filters, borders, effects, easy sharing options and hashtags to help organize everything in its worldwide community of users. But why stop at photos when Streamzoo lets you upload videos, too?

5. Vignette
Vignette offers a multitude of photo effects, borders and editing options that can be combined and saved as shortcuts to your home screen. At your next Kodak moment, select the shortcut, snap away, and Vignette automatically applies your preferred filters and effects. Once you have the shot, share it and amaze your friends.

LG Optimus Vu challenged Galaxy Note

LG launched the presence of new Android handset, Optimus Vu. With a large screen that is said to be a combination of smartphones and tablet computers, Optimus Vu intended to challenge the Galaxy Note made ​​by Samsung which already comes first. LG has released official pictures and specifications of Optimus Vu.

This handset has a 5-inch landscape IPS 1024x768p display, slightly smaller than the Galaxy Note which has 5.3 inch screen. Both phones are categorized in the super large segment. But this one is a bit different in its form factor. Not only to the Note, but to all smartphones. It has a 4:3 screen ratio, making the device oddly wide.

But if there is anything special about this device is its sleek and sexy aesthetics. When the Lumia 900 was revealed, many Android enthusiasts were upset that the device didn’t come to the Android team. IF you were one of those, this might be the smartphone for you, as it is very similar.

LG Optimus Vu Specifications:
* Android 2.3 (will be upgrated to Android 4.0 soon)
* 1.5GHz dual-core processor
* 1 GB of RAM
* 32 GB of internal storage
* 8 MP with AF LED rear-facing camera / 1.3 MP front-facing camera
* 2,080 mAh battery
* Dimensions: 139.6 x 90.4 x 8.5mm

LG Optimus Vu challenged Galaxy NoteLG Optimus Vu challenged Galaxy Note
The other specs are good, but nothing out of this world. The battery is larger than many devices, but not by much. And 32 GB of internal storage are quite tempting. We wonder how the device will feel in the hands, though, with its wider form-factor. It will probably be much harder to use the device single-handed.

The device is also only 8.5 mm thick, making it the slimmest LTE device around. This adds to its good looks, which is something very luring about the LG Optimus Vu. But tell us what you think. Do you like this smartphone? Do you think you will be waiting for it, or will you go for one of those quad-core beasts to be announced at MWC?

With the increasing activity of using a smartphone of course the more data we have stored in your phone. We certainly do not want to lose data or file. One way is to backup the data on the phone and the PC. Apple's iPhone has iTunes which works very well in the syncing data and applications with a PC or Mac.

And what about the users of phones-based Android? So far no one special software that can perform backups and syncing job that runs on all kinds of Android phones. During this time, the software used separately and there may be many ways of confusing choices.

Now, the difficulty Android phone users will be resolved by the presence of Cloudless Magic Media Transfer application. These applications can synchronize with either using a wifi connection.

For a successful transfer of data between your Android device and computer, you just need to verify that you the two are connected to a similar Wi-Fi network. In addition, the option for remote sharing needs to be enabled on both computers. After fixing the necessary settings, all you need to do is access Cloudless on your Android. Then you will have to add the required computers.

Cloudless Magic Media TransferTo do this, you need to:
1. Tap Settings > New
2. Specify the type of sync you will do on the Account Setting screen. Modify settings for Direction, Username, Password, and Workgroup. This is also where you will be adding all users for the sync to be successful.
3. Tap on Shared Folder so you can choose the desired computer and network directory where the sync will be established.
4. Specify what type of file you will be transferring. There will be a number displayed on the Low watermark field. This depicts the number of available MB you need in your SD card storage. If you don’t have enough free space on your SD card, the app will automatically stop transferring files.
5. When you’re done choosing the file, simply tap Verify.

The good thing about opting to go Cloudless is that your data gets automatically synced to all devices added on your list. This happens when you connect to your Wi-Fi network. One thing to note though, is that you need to keep organizing transferred files on your device so you don’t clutter data on the directory. To access your transferred videos and images, you simply have to access it from the Gallery. On the other hand, your mp3 files can be accessed from within the Music app.

If you wish to manually sync data, simply tap on Transfer button found on the homescreen of the app. Be warned that the time required to successfully sync all content will depend on the amount of data and number of added users synced to your device. While the sync is ongoing, you are free to view the status of all uploads and downloads through the notification.

It is important to remember that the app is still on its alpha release. As such, it can be expected that there will still be some things that need to be fixed. One of the things that need to be modified is its interface. There should also be an option for removing a user/computer from a list as well as deleting original file after it has been successfully uploaded. A better support for the notifications can turn Cloudless into an extremely handy app.
