    15-20K Advice on Android Phone under 20k

    Unfortunately its still selling at close to 30k brand new which is over your budget. Another option you could explore the the Zenfone Max Pro M1. I bought that one for my brother just last week for 10k on flipkart (4gb,64gb), and infact just installed gcam on it 10 mins back, and theres quite a...

    15-20K Advice on Android Phone under 20k

    If you're ok with second hand, theres someone on the forum selling an Lg G6 for around 16k. I have one and the rear cameras are fantastic (more so if you installGcam on it). Both day light as well as low light shots are close to Pixel 2 quality levels. Overall, the phone is excellent -...

    Yeah, I know. Unfortunately, they werent willing to come down on their quote. Collected it yesterday and its working fine. Lesson learnt the hard way. Need to be more careful next time! :)

    Laptop Keyboard cable retainer cable broken

    Gave it to Ruchi infotech in Andheri. They quoted 750 for a new clip (I suppose they will probably take one off a spare board they have lying around). Expnesive for something that probably doesnt even cost 10rs but didnt have a choice!

    Laptop Keyboard cable retainer cable broken

    Yes, just the retainer clip is broken. Some keys work while others do not but that could be an issue with the replacement keyboard as well. Any suggestions of places you have tried where I can get it done by someone familiar with the procedure? Dont want to mess it up further!

    Laptop Keyboard cable retainer cable broken

    I have a Lenovo B5070 whose keyboard wasnt working properly. While replacing it, I used too much pressure pulling out the keyboard cable and the tiny retainer clip broke off. I've tried sticking it with tape but it doesn't seem to work. Any recommended place at Lamington Road I can take it to...

    Airtel DTH - Internet TV

    I upgraded to the Airtel internet TV box a couple of months from the regular HD box back when they offered it to me at Rs 750. My experience with it has been quite terrible to be honest! The box was lagging a lot, I would keep getting msgs saying the Airtel TV app has stopped working after...

    What are the best good Mutual Fund management platforms?

    I was referring to the stocks held by the various funds. I'm aware of all funds held by me due to the CAS. In fact it was very easy to switch over to Kuvera as its possible to upload the CAS onto their website and it shows all funds held on their site even if not purchased through them.

    What are the best good Mutual Fund management platforms?

    Agree about not having too many funds. 5-7 is more than enough to cover most categories of funds. Are there utilities that show duplicate stocks held by the different mutual funds? This is something I've been thinking of doing manually to figure out what all I'm holding but if there's a utility...

    What are the best good Mutual Fund management platforms?

    Why invest through multiple platforms? Choose one and invest. Keep in mind that all these platforms offer only the regular mutual funds and not direct plans so if you know what you are doing, investing in direct funds makes sense as you'll save on the upfront and trail commissions which will...

    What are the best good Mutual Fund management platforms?

    I've been using FundsIndia over the last 8 years or so without any issues. They are helpful, the portal is easy to use and they have quite a few value added services like sips based on market value etc etc. I never really used all of that though and didn't even use their advisory service much as...

    What are the best good Mutual Fund management platforms?

    You can put the entire amount into a liquid fund and every month shift a small portion of it into equity / balanced funds. Ideally you should look at shifting it over a period of 2-3 years to try and avoid the market volatility as sudden dips could wipe out a major portion of your investments if...

    Storage Solutions Where should I save my desktop data?

    Any of you tried this before? https://www.skyvault360.com/ Was reading an article about data backup and came across this. Seems reasonable and unlimited (I guess the max would be your internal storage), so it seems like it will work like a mirror of your desktop data as against Drive where you...

    Storage Solutions Adding SSD to Lenovo G5080 along with primary HDD

    Yes mine works perfectly. Ordered the storite caddy on amazon and while it's quite a tight fit it works well and the hard disk is detected every time. I put the ssd in place of the primary hard disk though so it boots off the ssd and the hdd is in the caddy as additional storage.

    Storage Solutions Adding SSD to Lenovo G5080 along with primary HDD

    Thanks Vivek! I've ordered an optical bay caddy so will clone it on the laptop itself. Now suppose I want to dualboot both Win 10 and Ubuntu, how do I go about doing it? First clone the hard disk to the ssd, then resize the ssd and make an additional partition for Ubuntu and install it onto that...

    Storage Solutions Adding SSD to Lenovo G5080 along with primary HDD

    I picked up the 250Gb 850 Evo today on the flipkart sale for the equivalent of 5.8k (10% Festive pass offer, 10% hdfc cards, and 10x reward points on HDFC Regalia). Now I was wondering if I could clone the data off the laptop hard drive by connecting both the laptop hdd and the ssd to my...

    Storage Solutions Adding SSD to Lenovo G5080 along with primary HDD

    Oh, in that case it doesnt make sense to get it from the US. Adding in the taxes, the pricing is almost the same and without being sure about the warranty either. Will wait for some sale on Amazon / Flipkart and pick up the Evo or similar here itself. If anyone has any info on the used drives...
