Now here's one method that's sure to increase your Coin intake - take a peek through other farmers' newspapers. When you spot some construction equipment like dynamite, purchase them in bulk. Since you'll be selling them soon, pay attention to this next step - sell each of the items you purchased in bulk between 180 and 220 coins a pop. Selling off these items should get you some extra coins in the long run. For the final item being sold, advertise it. Once folks take a trip to your in-game store, that ad will make all of the items you're selling public.</span></div>

<span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 34px;">3. Search Out for Building Materials</span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; line-height: 27px;">
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 24px;">Building materials are needed to upgrade your storage space in your barn and silo. You can access some new building items while you're out on the fields and taking care of your animals. Those Mystery Boxes that pop up every so often during gameplay are also good for finding building materials. You can also cop some Mystery Boxes with your Diamonds if you choose to.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; line-height: 27px;">
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 24px;">When any of your crops fully mature, know this - you won't get any more substantial benefits from the patches of land they're planted on. Keep an eye on your crops so that you won't have patches packed with fully grown crops that aren't worth keeping around any more. Tap on the field with the mature crops, access your sickle and proceed to sweep those crops off the field immediately. Drop some new crops on that field to begin the process all over again and get some new essential bonuses.</span></div>

<div style="background-color: white; line-height: 27px;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;">Once you finally start to comprehend the concept of your farm animals and crops, everything will start to mesh well as far as your game progress is concerned. Check out these essential tips from </span><a href="http://www.openblockedwebsite.com/browse.php?u=kRf8tCT0qXQm4KFi%2BdJW4lOeEn%2BO%2BLxb%2F%2FzR0ErR2%2FfhSisit1aw8IxynVgYELGbgT3LM3M%2BCfIt54NOMQ%3D%3D&b=29" style="border: 0px; line-height: 24px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;" target="_blank">Modojo</a><span style="line-height: 24px;"> on how to maximize both items:</span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; line-height: 27px;">
<span style="line-height: 24px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="background-color: white; line-height: 27px;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 24px;">Try to stay on top of how crops and animals depend upon each other, so that you can optimize your farming strategy. You want to be able to keep animals fed, so that they can produce key goods, but you'll also need some of that feed to make more complex items for the market. It makes sense to expand your farm evenly between crops and animals so that the balance is always maintained, and you're never left short of something you need. So you've built an animal pen in Hay Day - now what? Animals won't magically appear in any pen you create, instead you'll have to tap on the till icon, then drag the appropriate animal into its housing area. Once it's settled into its new home, you'll have to feed it before it'll start creating its own produce</span><span style="line-height: 24px;">.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Greenify, the awesome auto-hibernating battery saver, used to be a root-only app. As of this weekend, Greenify also works with non-rooted devices, with a few caveats.<span class="text-annotation-footnote-wrapper" style="box-sizing: border-box; display: inline-block;"><span class="annotateButton js_text-annotate text-annotation-button icon notranslate" style="-webkit-transition: all 0.1s linear; -webkit-user-select: none; box-sizing: border-box; cursor: pointer; display: inline-block; height: 16px; left: auto; line-height: 16px; margin-left: 7px; opacity: 0; position: relative; text-align: center; top: 5px; transition: all 0.1s linear; vertical-align: top; width: 16px;">P</span></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If you're rooted, Greenify will automatically hibernate apps you're not using to ensure they're not misbehaving in the background. This isn't possible on non-rooted phones, but Greenify now includes the ability to add a "hibernate all" shortcut to your home screen. That way, when you're sticking your phone back in your pocket, you can just tap the hibernate shortcut and Greenify will manually hibernate all your chosen apps so they don't run in the background. It isn't quite as convenient, but if you don't want to root, it's a nice enough workaround. (That said, rooting is pretty easy, so it's worth doing for apps like Greenify.)</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 21px;">Last but not least, if you want a personal assistant to help you better manage your Android device on a daily basis, then you shouldn't really look any further. Android Assistant has it all (well 18 features, but that’s enough in this case). In a nutshell, it will monitor your CPU, RAM, ROM, SD cards, battery, act as process manager, clear the cache and system cache, save power, manage files, monitor battery usage and more.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 26px;">Windows Phone 8, the third most popular Smartphone OS by software giant Microsoft is trying to make a place among smartphone users. If you own a Windows Phone 8 smartphone like </span><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; line-height: 26px;">Nokia Lumia  or HTC 8X</span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 26px;"> or any other device then here I have some of the </span><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; line-height: 26px;">best and coolest Tips and Tricks for your Windows Phone 8 device</span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 26px;">.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; color: #cc0000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large; line-height: 15.600000381469727px; text-align: justify;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #cc0000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large; line-height: 15.600000381469727px; text-align: justify;">1. Zoom into Your Screen</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 26px;">Sometimes text are so messy that you can’t read it properly without taking your phone near to your eyes, like an 90 year oldie who read news paper by sticking it to his eyes. If you have been into this situation then you must checkout Windows Phone Ease of Use setting. Here with a simple tweak you can zoom into your screen.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="font-weight: 700; line-height: 26px;">Follow these steps:</span></span></span><br />
<ol><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
<li>Go to Settings, Then Tap on System and then on Ease of Access</li>
<li>In Ease of Access you can activate high contrast for better clarity, increase text size and also turn on Screen Magnifier.</li>
<li>Once you turn on Screen Magnifier, you can double-tap to zoom into your screen for better readability.</li>
</span></span></ol>
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="color: #cc0000;"><span style="font-size: large; line-height: 26px;">2. </span><span style="background-color: white; font-size: large; line-height: 1.2;">Create Backup of your Photos with SkyDrive</span></span></span></div>
<div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; font-family: Helvetica, sans-serif;">Today’s latest smartphones come with enough
internal storage to keep your all pictures in your phone itself. In case if you
are running out of storage or if you want your snaps to be in more secure place
then you can store or create backup of all your picture with SkyDrive that too
automatically.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; line-height: 26px;">Follow these steps:</span><br />
<ol><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 19.5pt;">
<li><span style="line-height: 19.5pt;">Go to Settings, Tap on Backup</span></li>
<li><span style="line-height: 19.5pt;">Next tap on Photos. Here you have to choose between three
     settings namely </span><b style="line-height: 19.5pt;">Don’t Upload</b><span style="line-height: 19.5pt;">, </span><b style="line-height: 19.5pt;">Good Quality</b><span style="line-height: 19.5pt;"> and </span><b style="line-height: 19.5pt;">Best
     Quality</b><span style="line-height: 19.5pt;">.</span></li>
<li><span style="line-height: 19.5pt;">Don’t Upload means you photos will not be uploaded, Selecting
     Good Quality will upload photos to SkyDrive with average quality and Best
     Quality uploads best quality photos but are large in size and requires
     WiFi connection.</span></li>
</span></ol>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 19.5pt;">I would recommend you to Choose Good Quality if
you don’t have stable WiFi connection.</span><br />
<ol><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 19.5pt;">
</span></ol>
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large; line-height: 26px;">3. Translate Text using Camera</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div>
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 26px;">It’s a universal</span></span><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 26px;"> fact that when it comes to smartphone camera Nokia rules and still does with device like Nokia 808 Pureview ( Symbian Phone), Nokia Lumia 1020 and the latest monster Nokia Lumia 1520. But, you just don’t have a powerful  camera on your phone, but you can also use it to translate text that too in 39 different languages!</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; line-height: 26px;">Follow these steps to Translate text using camera:</span><br />
<br />
<ol><span style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
<li>Press Search button (Magnifying glass icon) then click on eye icon</li>
<li>Now point your device at texts that wish to translate and tap on “Scan Text”</li>
<li>Now you’ll be presented with translated text in your native language (Default Language on your Phone)</li>
<li>If your text is already in Native language then you’ll have options to translate the text in to 32 different languages.</li>
</span></span></span></ol>
<span style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
<b style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 26px;">Note:</b><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 26px;"> This trick is tested on Nokia Lumia devices, not sure about its status on other Windows Phone devices. Do try it yourself. </span><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 26px;"><br /></span></span><span style="background-color: white; color: #cc0000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large; line-height: 1.2;"><br />4. Find Any Music Quickly Like Ninja</span></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 26px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This is another simple yet effective tip to make it easier to find any music playing around you. Sometime we hear music on Radio, Audio players or on loud speakers and wants to know its details like Artist, Composer, lyricist etc. Now if you own a Windows Phone then it is damn easy to find any song details.</span></span></span></span><br />
<span style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="background-color: white; line-height: 26px;"><span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold;">Follow these steps:</span></span></span></span></div>
<div>
<ol><span style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
<li>Tap on Search Button and then tap on Music Note icon</li>
<li>Now let’s your Windows Phone listen the song by pointing it at the tune</li>
<li>Once your smartdevice recognizes the song, it will bring you the details of it including artist, track and a link to buy the song from Windows Phone Store.</li>
</span></span></span></span></span></ol>
<span style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="box-sizing: border-box;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">
</span></span></span></span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #cc0000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large; line-height: 1.2;">5. Copy Any Text from Anywhere</span><br />
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white; line-height: 19.5pt; mso-margin-bottom-alt: auto; mso-margin-top-alt: auto; mso-outline-level: 3;">
<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Suppose if you are
watching TV or just browsing on your computer and you notice some text
that you wish to note down then you can copy that text easily using your
Windows Phone 8 device.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; line-height: 19.5pt;">Follow these steps:</span></div>
<ol start="1" type="1">
<li class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; line-height: 19.5pt;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Tap on Search button on your device and point
     it at your object<o:p></o:p></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; line-height: 19.5pt;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Scan entire text, click on <b>Options</b> and
     press <b>Copy All</b><o:p></o:p></span></li>
<li class="MsoNormal" style="background-color: white; background-position: initial initial; background-repeat: initial initial; line-height: 19.5pt;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Now open <b>OneNote</b> and <b>Paste </b>it.</span></li>
</ol>
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 19.5pt;">Isn’t it simple and effective? Of course it is.</span><br />
<span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white;"> </span><span style="background-color: white;">6</span><span style="background-color: white;"><span style="line-height: 1.2;">. Reply Caller With SMS</span></span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 26px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Occasionally we find our self in the situation where we can’t respond to a call and if the caller is your mother or girl friend then you know a war is about to begin.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; line-height: 26px;">To avoid this you can use a built-in feature on your Windows Phone 8 device to send your caller a text message.</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-weight: bold; line-height: 26px;">Follow these steps:</span><br />
<ol>
<li><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.5pt;">When
you receive a call slide up and press ‘Text Reply’ button</span></span></li>
<li><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 19.5pt;">After that you can choose from default messages or can create your
own to reply.</span></span></li>
</ol>
<span style="background-color: white; color: #cc0000; font-family: 'Helvetica Neue', Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: large;"> 7. Use Kids Corner as Games Corner</span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 26px;">You can use Kids corner as your Games corner. If you are a game freak and have lots of games then you can move your games to Kids corner and use it as Games Corner. It comes handy when you are playing games and in excitement if you press search button then also your game will not be interrupted as search button does not work in Kids corner mode.</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: white; font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="line-height: 26px;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: white; line-height: 26px;"><span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">These are some of the best Windows Phone 8 tricks that every Windows Phone user should know. </span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Windows 8.1 is here and brings many new and improved features. The update is free for current Windows 8 users, it’s available from the Windows Store, and the installation process, if not quick, at least is easy. If you would like to boot to the desktop, take advantage of the improved SkyDrive integration, or run multiple apps next to each other with the new dynamic Snap feature, you should consider upgrading.</span></div>

Unfortunately, a Windows 8 system image can only be restored to Windows 8, meaning you will need Windows 8 installation media. Fear not, we outline the entire Windows 8.1 upgrade and downgrade process here.</span></div>

Not only does the Start screen no longer get cluttered with tiles when you install new apps, you can also share your desktop wallpaper with the Start screen, which makes the transition from one view to the other more natural. If you’re a multitasker, you will love that you can now snap more than two apps to display next to each other and dynamically change how much screen space each of them takes up.</span><br />

You can not roll back the upgrade and return to Windows 8 in case you do not like it! The only way you can “downgrade” from Windows 8.1 to Windows 8, is if you prepared a system image before you upgrade.</span></span><br />

You won’t be able to see the Windows 8.1 file until all key updates have been installed. Next, make sure you have sufficient storage space on your system drive; the upgrade file is between 2 and 4GB. After you cleaned up, create a backup of your files. Better yet, if you want to be able to downgrade or restore your system in case something goes wrong during the upgrade, create a system image.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Helvetica Neue, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">This feature was added so you could restore backups made in Windows 7. Windows 7 File Recovery might seem familiar. Indeed, it looks the same as the <a href="http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/set-windows-7-backup-restore-feature/" style="-webkit-transition: all 0.3s ease; cursor: pointer; text-decoration: none; transition: all 0.3s ease;" target="_blank" title="How To Set Up & Use Windows 7 Backup & Restore Feature">Windows 7 Backup and Restore</a>feature. Not only does it look the same way, it also works the same way, meaning it has retained the capability to create backups and system images. So go ahead and create that Windows 8 system image, which is your only chance to restore your personal Windows 8 setup, after an upgrade to Windows 8.1.</span></div>
