Nokia 9 leaked - This time Only renders!

Nokia 9 leaked ! yah!, after the success of its Nokia series, Nokia 6, Nokia 3, HMD global is making a new handset named Nokia 9. This Nokia 9 is in mind of most of the people as the much expected Nokia 8 was priced little bit high, and they have no other choices of atleast expecting only this new mobile Nokia 9 to be priced little bit lower.

So, as per the new leaks by Compare Raja (the popular leaking source), this new Nokia 9 handset is little bit sleek with some bezels around the display. There are also other rumors that this phone
could be powered by  the latest processor Qualcomm's Snapdragon 835, and the RAM to be around 4GB. The camera is also rumored to have the best in business with 12MP or 13 MP camera as it has dual camera with flash, and seriously there is no headphone jack for this mobile too.



Since Nokia 8 featured the camera app, using which you can take photos with rear and front camera at the same time, we can expect this phone to feature the same kind of software with latest Android Operating system.

Remember, this is just a leak and the actual handset may differ while they release officially.

How to checksum or verify File Integrity of downloaded Kali Linux using Windows without any software [ Beginners' Guide]

How to check and verify the Kali Linux you downloaded was original or not, this is the
question that may arise in mind for most of the beginners who wish to learn Kali Linux.
This could be because, the official documentation states, always download Kali Linux from Official sources. But, the link that they provide also contains the Torrent link, which most of them use for faster download.

So, what is checksum ?

I dont want to confuse you by explaining such a concept, but let me tell you in a simple words.

Checksum is a kind of digital signature which is used to check whether the file is altered or not. When you download files from Torrents, there are possibilities for the files could be altered. But, when even a single bit was altered in a file, then it would produce different checksum value.


So, its safe to assume that, the file you downloaded was 99.9% unaltered when the checksum value that was generated in your PC matches the value given in the official website.

OK, but how can i check that ?

Checking the file integrity of Kali Linux using Windows was pretty much easy.

Though there are many tools available to check the file integrity, you can check file integrity using the inbuilt tools that are available in Windows 10 or Windows.

Just follow the below steps.

1) Open powershell

2) Navigate to the folder where you downloaded Kali linux.

For example if your Kali is in g drive, then you can navigate to that directory as follows.

For example : cd\

cd g:

cd kali-linux-2017.2-amd64

7) Type certutil -hashfile followed by the ISO name and -sha256 at the end.

For example :

certutil.exe  -hashfile kali-linux-2017.2-amd64.iso -sha256

How to checksum or verify File Integrity of downloaded Kali Linux using Windows without any software [ Beginners' Guide]



8) Hit Enter and Wait for sometime,

It will display the checksum value, for example :

4556775bfb981ae64a3cb19aa0b73e8dcac6e4ba524f31c4bc14c9137b99725d

check whether its the one as mentioned on the official

website.

You can also check that using the file provided/downloaded in the same folder.

You will see an file kali-linux-2017.2-amd64.txt.sha256 or something, just right click and open with notepad, you will see the Checksum value.

If it matches with value generated on step 8 or website, then use it, or else kindly delete the file.

That's it.

Enjoy.

Note : The checksum value used in this post was retrieved from kali-linux-2017.2-amd64

So you can verify checksum of kali-linux-2017.2-amd64 using the above steps.

OnePlus found to be collecting your Personal data without your (user) permission - Here is how to turn stop that!

OnePlus, the popular smartphone manufacturer is again back in the news, this time its for
collecting the user information without user's permission.



The smartphone manufacturer was under attack last time, when a group of people from xda found, oneplus manipulating the ROM of Oneplus 5 for higher scores in benchmarks. That issue happened almost three months ago, when the team decided
to check the rom with a new benchmark tool. They tested the OS with the regular benchmark kit and after that they decided to test it with another new benchmark tool, but what they found of kind of Surprising as Oneplus ROM was designed in a way to give high scores for benchmark when we test with the standard popular benchmark tools.

And now again, it was under attack because of this issue.

It was one of the user Christopher Moore, who unearthed this much serious issue while checking the incoming and outgoing data requests made by his phone. He found Oneplus transmitting a quite sensitive information that includes

IMEI number,

Mac Address,

User's behaviors like when an application is opened,

When your phone is unlocked, and lot more.

to open.oneplus.net

As soon as the netizens took this issue to Oneplus via twitter, Oneplus tried to escape
from this remark by saying, they are collecting this only for after sale Support and to tune the software for user behavior.

Here is the response from Oneplus, when Android Authority reached them ,


"We securely transmit analytics in two different streams over HTTPS to an Amazon server. The first stream is usage analytics, which we collect in order for us to more precisely fine tune our software according to user behavior. This transmission of usage activity can be turned off by navigating to ‘Settings’ -> ‘Advanced’ -> ‘Join user experience program’. The second stream is device information, which we collect to provide better after-sales support."

I don't know whether the new mobiles will also feature such kind of things, as there is no official confirmation from Oneplus regarding this, as of writing this post. But if you are a OnePlus user, and want all your information not to be sent to Oneplus, then you can turn off this Kind of keylogger by visiting Settings -> Advanced ->" Join user experience Program", without rooting your phone.
