It looks like the fun may finally be over for cheaters who play PokeMon Go. I have not played the game in months, but for me spoofing my location was the only way I was going to get halfway decent PokeMon playing the game. I live in the suburbs and I would need to walk miles upon miles to have...

One of the first things I do in the morning and when I get off work is to check my twitter feed. When you have gone hours without checking your social media feed you can find yourself experiencing a bit of thumb fatigue and at times cramping from all the swiping up and down. Auto Scroll may be...

Spring is nearly upon us. If you are gearing up to get out this Spring you now is the time to consider a battery bank. My family loves weekend getaways to the beach, and we have enjoyed a camping trip or two over the years. One great thing about true camping is that you get away from the grid...

Every once in a while the news and media go bonkers over lab created bugs in Android that will never actually amount to your valuable information being exposed. One crazy bug you won't likely hear about is a government cyberspionage tool that can totally take over your iPhone with one single...

Yesterday a security expert uploaded a video of himself successfully skimming a payment token, loading it to a card device and using the stolen token to pay for a real life item. This was a proof of concept showcasing a Security Flaw in Samsung Pay. Today Samsung responded to the video. Here...

It is no secret that PokeMon Go is one of the most successful games of all time. Everywhere you go you see kids and adults for that matter with their faces turned downward as they walk aimlessly into the backyards of your neighbors and across busy highways. The game has helped us get more...

I can't say that I didn't see this coming. Once again we have a lab created hack performed by a security researcher. This time the vulnerability has been found in the security of Samsung Pay. The hack that was discovered is actually quite alarming though since it would enable the hacker to...

If you have rooted your HTC 10 then by now you are fully aware of some of the troubles we have run into thanks to HTC 10's auto encrypt. When flashing mods on this device if you don't wipe your device properly you can end up with non working radios. Thanks to a mod by "Captain Throwback" you...

A few weeks ago Google included a patch in their security update which blocked all rooted devices from using Android Pay. It even blocked those devices that were using Xposed Mods. There is apparently a way to bypass the "SafteyNet" checks placed into the latest updates. "jgummerson" posted the...

I personally love the placement of the fingerprint scanner on the Nexus 6P. The back of the device for me seems to be the most ergonomic. For me the home button placement on the front of devices like the iPhone and Note 5 can be uncomfortable and hard to reach. These front facing fingerprint...

If you are one of the lucky ones who still has an unlimited data plan with Verizon you may make good use of free wifi tethering from time to time. I do not use this personally unless my home internet is down, or I am on the road traveling. I have been known to use tethering in lieu of open wifi...
