Take Ownership of a folder

If we want to modify or replace some of the files in Windows system files (for ex. replacing uxtheme.dll) , then we have to take ownership of those folders (example. System32).  For that purpose, I found a handy utility 'Take Ownership'.
Potential uses :
1) Uxtheme patching
2) APKTool installation
3) Replacement of windows files
4) Editing hosts file
5) Removing Windows.old directory for removing dirty Windows installation

Take ownership adds a simple explorer context menu, for taking the ownership of a folder/file with a single click, and installation and uninstall can be done with a single click.
The following image shows how to do it :

Enable Developer Tools in Moto G

As we know, Moto G is a fantastic and affordable phone by Motorola and Google !! Moto G surprisingly provides specifications that the phones with double price could provide. Are you too a nerd too, trying to explore your brand new phone ? You are at the right place. Initially developer options used to be visible. Later, with the release of Android 4.2 Jelly Bean (JB)  Google decided to hide those settings, because people used to play with developer tools, even if they did not know what those settings could lead.

Android KitKat is the most recent version of Android till date. It has revamped user interface with smoother animation and lower system hardware requirements. As Android rolled out Android KitKat, it introduced a bunch of new features and modifications in the Android API. 1. Keep mobile data under control We use mobile data everyday. But not all of the carriers do have unlimited data plans. Sometimes we fail to keep an eye on mobile data limit and get a huge bill in return. And as we all know, Android applications hog data a lot because of cloud computing with synchronization. Thanks to Android's built in data monitor which warns you to turn off data when warning limit set by you is exceeded, and turns off data automatically when data plan is exhausted.
