Google's Ice 2, the N13,000 sleek droid

Hello there techies, something good is happening and I'd be damned if I don't let you in on it, Google is up to something real good, expected to hit us this year's September, and trust me me when I say you'd love it! The ICE 2 smartphone.

Me when I first saw the specs of the Google Ice 2 project:

Yes, this is all about a smartphone and NO it's not a flagship kind of piece, it is rather an entry level kind but the price when compared to the specs is just going to blow your mind!

 The 5.5 inch simple beauty is expected to come rolling in by September for just $40, a.k.a N13,000 only. Google is at the forefront of this in conjunction with a Japanese OEM, Freetel.

Though an entry level piece it is, the device is expected to come with coo features like:

• Google Play Protect
• Latest Android OS
• Freebies from MTN as rumour has it Google is doing some partnership with the Telco giant.
• Good quality which Freetel is quit renowned for
• And of course Google GMS certified.

How To Get 1.4GB for N500 (MTN)

Morning there. In this post I'l be showing you how to get 1,375MB from MTN for just N500 only. And no tweaking of IMEI involved, just got to dumbfound the system.



First off, if you want the MB to last for a month you need to have done(recently)/do a sub of one month and finish the 1.5GB maybe in 5days or 7. Now you move on to manipulating protocols.

How To Get The 1.5GB;

Migrate To MTN pulse if you are not on it already. Dial *406# to do so. (You'll like the plan, call rate is awesome)

Reason: on MTN pulse, you don't get 750mb for N500, you get 1GB instead. Based on logistics😉

Now if you've recently subscribed as earlier stated, you must have gotten the kind of message in the screenshot below as MTN is sending it out to virtually almost all their customers.



And thereafter, dial *406# and follow the prompt for one gigabyte sub or do it through *131# under weekly subs.



Well, it's supposed to last for just a week but hence the reason for the first step which if you had like 20days left unused of the month's sub, 7days will be added from the day you sub to the 1week and would eventually leave you with a validity period that's literally a month.



And oh, being that you on the data offer, the 750 supposed original data allowance for the 500naira sub would be halved and added to the 1GB you'll be given.



And that's it people. It's what I've and will be using till I find a way around this Android6 IMEI tweaking problem, without using PC. Enjoy.





Do share.

The MTN 1GB Tweak (How it works)

As clearly detailed in the image above, you can get an unsanctioned freebie of 1GB from MTN that'll be valid for three days for free, of course free, that's what makes it a freebie.

To get it, you simply send My App to 131, thereafter send Stop My App To 131. Now repeat the process.

Warning: Do not try to accumulate more than 1GB as that would end you up in the blacklist. That is, do not perform the process more than 10X.

What happens if you get blacklisted?

Well a guy asked me if his sim would die? Funny, well, when you get blacklisted, MTN sends your number to the SSS who in turn logs your identity with the CIA at Langley for terrorist check, and the SSS keeps your person under 24 hours surveillance, your every move is being monitored and every on/off-line transaction is being tracked... HELL NO! Chill man, I'm just kidding, you being blacklisted only bars you from the My App service and related services. Oya go and enjoy the tweak.
