WhatsApp had reportedly rolled out their calling feature a few days ago, but as it is in beta users found no option to do so in their app. With this root you can try out the new feature, but it’ll only work with users who’ve got it enabled, and you’ve got to enable it for every session. Take a glimpse at what’s coming!

The Chinese New Year is still a few days away but Chinese-speaking (or rather, typing) Android users are getting an early present, as virtual keyboard SwiftKey has released the official Chinese version for smartphones and tablets. They've been beta-testing this particular version for a few months now, and after many tweaks and fixes, they are ready to release it as an official part of the free typing app.
The updated SwiftKey version for this particular language, the most popular one in the world with more than one billion speakers, has seven new input methods. And it also recognizes that there are several different languages within the Chinese version itself. The Simplified Chinese has the QWERTY input method, 12-key Pinyin input method, and the Stroke input method. Meanwhile, Taiwan Traditional Chinese has Full Key Zhuyin, 12-Key Zhuyin, and the stroke input methods. Hong Kong Traditional Chinese includes the Cangjie, Quick Cangjie, and stroke input methods as well.
The Swiftkey Heatmap learns from your typing methods and how you interact with your virtual keyboard so that it will eventually lessen the mistakes it makes when you're typing in Pinyin and it converts into Chinese script. It will understand what you want to say even when you use words that you haven't used before. Based also on your typing behavior, it will build an accurate prediction method. To make the process easier, you can even add your Gmail and social media accounts so the app can learn more about the language you use.
And in keeping with the celebration of Chinese culture, SwitfKey is giving you a special free theme to celebrate the upcoming Chinese New Year. The theme designer used a red design with a Xiangyun pattern. The newest update also adds two more languages: Lao and Khmer. You can download and update SwiftKey from the Google Play Store.

Apple CEO Tim Cook told The Wallstreet Journal that just 15% of the newest iPhone buyers upgraded from another iPhone, and says that the latest iPhone cycle saw the highest rate of Android switchers. Just how many of those had budget phones, though?

If you like to know more about the battery on your Android device than the little battery gauge that comes with Android tells you, you might have used one of the available apps that give more details on the battery. One of those apps is called BetterBatteryStats and it has received a major update.
The update brings Material Design to the app giving it a new look. The update also brings full support for Android 5.0 Lollipop to the mix. Users still get a minimal user interface that gives you all the data in an easy to use format.
You can choose from two themes with the app, one is light with a white background and the other is dark with a black background. The update also brings new details about API stats to a dumpfile. The system app dialog now offers links to recovery ZIPs to be used when workarounds are needed.
Preferences can now be imported and exported and an option to show or hide spinners is now available. Users can now show the SELinux Policy on System App dialog and dump files. The ability to import and export preferences makes it easy to get the app back to the setup you like if you flash to custom ROMs and have to reinstall frequently.

We've featured something similar but the Smart Lock for Chrome is an official one from Google. This special unlocking feature works on a Chromebook with just an Android phone or tablet nearby. Simply sign in to unlock Chromebook without having to click anything on the keyboard or entering a passcode. All you need to do is access your Android phone.
This seems to be a nice and useful feature but not all Android phones can unlock your Chromebook. Smartphone must run at least Android 5.0 Lollipop and must have Bluetooth connectivity. Meanwhile, Chromebook must be installed with Chrome OS 40+ or above and of course, Bluetooth for the remote unlocking to work. Tablets are not yet supported but Google could be working on it.
Since this feature works over Bluetooth, the Android phone's Bluetooth must always be turned on and phone must be within a 100-foot Bluetooth range and near the Chromebook. Smart Lock for Chrome must first be set up on both the Android phone and the Chromebook. You can allow multiple phones to unlock Chromebook but you should turn off the connections not in use.
If you have more than one compatible phone nearby, turn off the ones you won’t be using. To sign in to Chromebook, make sure phone and computer are both connected to the Internet, click account picture found in the bottom right corner. Click Settings > Show advanced settings. Click “set up” on the Smart Lock section. Follow instructions to pair phone and Chromebook. Make sure phone and Chromebook can detect each other’s Bluetooth connection.
