Iphone and Android phones ssupport loads of applications that allow you to make free phone to phone calls to other smartphone devices. But here is the trick; Both the devices should have internet i.e. wifi/3g/2g  enabled and should be running the same applications on the phone.


Applications that support free phone to phone calls :
Skype:
Skype is world’s most popular PC to PC telephony service with more than 350 million users across the globe. Well thats old news; Good news is Skype has a mobile app. You can make free call to another user who is on skype using your mobile phone. If your friend is also a smartphone user (Android or Iphone) you can make free calls to them.
Download skype for your phone here :
Viber :
Viber is a mobile calling service that works on mobile phones with wifi & 3g internet. Viber not only supports free calling but also supports free text messaging to other viber users. You can also make Viber as a default dialer for your android phone.

In order to enjoy superior  call-quality you should be using 3g, However 2g Edge networks of Vodafone & Airtel are good enough & give good speed to support voice call quality.

How to Root almost any Android phone in 2 mins

Rooting is not limited to only tech-savvy guys any more. Any one with little or no knowledge can do this with number of easy-to-use tools available on the net. Unlock root is one such free software which can root almost any android phone available in the market. All you will require is a data cable for your phone, device drivers and a Windows PC.

  1. First of all install drivers for your mobile phone. If you haven’t done this yet you can do it using the CD provided by your mobile manufacturer or look on the net to download related drivers.
  1. Root any android phone
  2. After installing the drivers download Unlock root from here.
  3. Connect your phone to your PC using USB cable.
  4. Your device must be in USB Debugging mode. To turn it on, in your android phone – go to Settings > Applications > Development and check the box.
  5. Run the app and click on the Root button.  It will show you the list of android devices connected to your PC. Select your device and it will take care of the rest. It will take around 2-3 mins to complete the process. Wait until you see the “rooting finished” message in the left bottom corner of the window.
Watch this video to see the exact process.
Rooting voids your phone’s warranty and you may brick your phone (chances are pretty less). Though you can unroot your phone any time and get back the warranty. I have tried this on two of my phones and it worked smoothly. At any point of time if you feel like unrooting the phone you can simply do it by following the same process. Just press the “Unroot” button this time.
