An Angelic Return
Isn’t it Strings everywhere? Turn on any music channel or even Geo News; one finds their latest venture Koi Aanay Wala Hai airing in massive frequency. Of course the video is special in many ways:
firstly it’s a ‘STRINGS’ video that are always concept oriented. Moreover, the presence of Indian star John Abraham makes this video an extremely irresistible affair. How the team up happened and also about
the insights of the video, MAG catches up with the band in a brief chit chat.
How did the team up with John Abraham happen for the video?
Ever since Zinda, we have become very close to John. When he listened to our new album, he simply loved it and there we decided to work together on the title track video.
Who has directed the video and where was it shot?
It’s an Indian director, Ravi Udyavar, who is quite a popular figure in India. It was shot in Malaysia.
Who came up with the concept of the video?
It was basically Ravi’s concept but while composing the track Bilal had in mind a character with wings. So when we shared this thought with Ravi there we came up with a concept of an angel falling in love with a human.
How do you find Ravi as a video director?
It was the first time we have worked with him and we find him as a very professional director. His vision is very broad and it was great working with him. He came up with various important ideas that we were thinking about. What is interesting about the video is that its Ravi’s 1st video in 7 years and the same goes for John. Also, we have shot a video in nearly 4 years so it was good understanding among all of us.
How was it working with John Abraham?
Over the years, we have become great friends with John so its always enjoyable working with a friend. Its always good fun.
Are you planning to work with any other Indian actor in near future?
Even before Koi Aanay Wala Hai, we had not thought about hiring any Indian actor in our video. But when John showed interested and as we are such good friends with him we thought of giving it a go. Our videos are always concept oriented and John fitted in as the lead character who is an angel.
When is your next video coming out?

By the 20th of this month!

Nokia N95 Secret Tips & Tricks

Filed under: Mobile Phones — Tags: , , , , , , , , — admin @ 10:51 pm

1. In the Profiles settings of Nokia, there is an option: speak out the name to be called and choose open. Then go back to the laptop and press clock for seconds. It will succeed in calling wanted person via speaking out the name of his.

This function is realized by the software built in the cell phone itself that can recognize the voice calling. It seems that the function will take up much space.

However, it is not suggested to use the function, since its success rate is very low and always there is the problem like this: call jack but jane appears. If your voice is nearly same as that of computer, it will be good. You can do like this. In addition, you can use these two functions at the same time, 3D ringing and speaking out the name to be called, otherwise, the cell phone system will be halted.

2. If you didnt uninstall the program according to the common method, the cell phone may prompt you that the installation failed when you install the same program once again.

Maybe it is a detailed adjustment to the 3rd generation Nokia S60 for the security. Therefore, it is necessary to be careful for the installation and the uninstallation for the programs.

The important tips for the software installation of N95! Many friends can not run the program after installing *.Jar. Below is the solution:
a. When installing *.Jar program, you must use English to name *.Jar program file and it will work well. Some *Jar runs slowly, but do not worry. It will just take several seconds to run. (Generally less than 10 seconds)
b. If you want to manage *.Jar original installation file well, I suggest that you can create a folder, and put the English files *.Jar into it, as it is convenient to the classification.

By the way, the precious version of handay clock software is not compatible with N95 and when you open the clock function to work for you, then the multi-media button will become invalid. Note: higher than 4.02 version can be installed to work well for this function. As long as the normal JAR program for N95 can run, it just has the differences between full screen and the half screen.

3. N95 can look through the zoom of DOC documents. XLS files can be modified by the ranks of size, translation, the freezing window operation. PPT files can be displayed as the method of the full screen. As the version of FLASH players is a bit lower and larger flash will not be played. So will PPT, word, and excel.

4. If you want to install the theme of Nokia N95 into the cell phone as much as possible. If you install the theme into the card, it will recover automatically to the default theme when you restart the cell phone.

Two methods of the theme installation:

a. Copy the theme installation software (SIS or SISX format) into the cell phone card and use Y–browse to complete the installation.

b. Use card reader or data connection of the data cable to copy the decompressed theme folder into the cell phone card. The path is X:\private\10207114\import\ (suppose X is the memory card).

The comparison between these two installation methods:
a. The process of the installation is very simple but it will auto create a file under the path: C:\sys\install\sisregistry. For example,

C:\sys\install\sisregistry\a00000eb\00000002_0000.ctl. This will take up too much space of hard drive C
