Turn off auto update of Facebook apps

I hate auto update. I disabled auto update in Play Store, but why Facebook apps kept on telling me it has been updated?!?!?!

Apparently Facebook is breaking the rules and regulations of Play Store, however why Google haven't block it from Play Store. It seems like Google likes to bully individual apps developer or small companies by blocking their apps once they break a single freaking rule, but Google allow huge companies like Facebook to break the privacy rules?

Anyway, here is how to disable the Facebook apps auto update completely.

1. Disable auto update in Play Store apps [hey, don't assume you did that, because ass-u-me ;-) ]
2. While till in Play Store apps, look at another auto update button on the Facebook apps
-> Play Store -> "My apps and games" -> "INSTALLED" -> (optional: sort by Aphabetical) -> Facebook -> 3 dots on top right corner -> un-check "Enable auto update"
3. Disable the auto update in Facebook apps (yeah, inside the apps)
-> 3 bars on top right corner -> "Settings & Privacy" -> Settings -> "Media and Contacts" -> "App Updates" -> disable the "Auto-Update Facebook" button
4. Done, happy.

I have only the guide for Android, hopefully it is similar for iOS. Good luck disabling auto-update by Facebook apps.

Earn money by doing survey

One of the things I like to do while watching drama or youtube is doing survey. Sometimes the drama or youtube video become too slow and nothing else to do while waiting for it to go through, completing survey is a great thing to do and you can earn money while doing it!

iPanelOnline is one of the multinational survey companies, the filtering criteria sometimes quite strict, so I only get 1 out of 10 to do. Probably the company has to put a better filter for its members. Contrary to that, I get to do the right survey.

Click the link below to start your earning money!

Malaysia
China
Japan
Hong Kong
Singapore
Taiwan

Nexus 6P Teardown

The first China made Nexus (others are made in China, not China made, get it?). Too bad it scored 2/10 only, so prepare to buy a new phone when it is broken.

iPad Mini 4 Teardown

New iPad Mini 4, it's thinner, lighter, powerful-er, yawn.....zzzzz...... What else you can do with it Apple?

Anyway, here is the teardown from our friends at iFixIt, my source of teardown:

Read it at iFixIt here:
iPad Mini 4 Teardown

It scored 2/10 at iFixIt for repairability, meaning don't hope to fix it once you break it. Just go to buy a new one if tragedy happened.

Phone numbers you should avoid in Malaysia

Starting this year, I received many sms regarding "promotions" at gambling websites. Even though it is normal to receive phone calls and sms from bank or insurance or investment firm, this is getting too annoying. Therefore I start to block these numbers on my phone. The purpose of this post is to share the list of phone numbers that I put into reject list. If you want to get a new number, please avoid these because I might many more people will put these number in reject list.

012-9088945
016-3394410
017-5492221
016-9042819
017-4732359
014-4364489

If you planning to get a new number, get 01x-<8-digits>, don't reuse 01x-<7-digits> because some might be used for not so fun jobs.
