Streamzoo Just Got Better! Latest Streamzoo Update Features Groups, Cover Photo, And New Look

Just a few weeks ago, Instagram added the ability to upload videos on their platform. Big deal. Streamzoo, the better alternative to Instacrapgram had that feature a long time ago - and more. But with the latest update released for Android, Streamzoo has gone beyond Instagram's league to become the BEST photo-sharing app. The latest update, aka Streamzoo v4.0, comes with a fresh UI and two new features.

Streamzoo gets a make over!

Streamzoo gets a more polished look in the latest update. If you felt some lagging in previous versions when scrolling, v4.0 fixes that too. The new user interface looks sleeker than before and scrolls more smoothly.

Profile

New features

The latest version of Android offers two new features: cover photo and groups.

Cover Photo

We've seen cover photos on Facebook and Twitter but this new feature is still a welcome addition to Streamzoo. It lets you spruce up your boring profile and add more personality to it!

Groups

 

With the new release, you can now create and join public and private groups. Share your photos in secret among private group members or share them with friends in a public group.

 And get this - now you can send messages to the whole group. Group chat, anyone?

In a private group, the photos you share will only be visible to group members.

Uploaded photos will appear on your profile, feed, and private group feed but only you and private group members will see them.

In a public group, all photos shared will be visible to everyone including non-members. Uploaded photos will appear on your profile, feed, public group feeds, and streams (if you use hashtags).

It doesn't make sense at first but uploading a public group has its advantages. Since everyone will be seeing your photos, you get more likes, more points, and a shot at making it to the Popular Wall. At the same time, you can limit your interaction within public group members.

If you want to join a group, you do need an invitation from the group owner or one of the moderators. Of course, you can always start your own group.

What are you waiting for? Download the latest version of Streamzoo for Android on Google Play! (Existing Streamzoo users, check out the FAQs section below for more info about the Groups feature)

FAQs on Streamzoo Groups Feature (will add more later)

Q: If I upload a public photo on my profile or anywhere else outside a public group, will it still appear on my public group feeds?

A: No. You have to upload a photo in a public group for it to be visible on the group feed.

Q: If I upload a photo on a Public Group Feed, will it appear on my followers' Users Feed?

A: Yes. Members and non-members of the public group who follow you can see, like, and shoutout your photos from their Users Feed.

Q: What is the difference between an owner and moderator?

A: The owner is the creator of the group. Each group can only have 1 owner. The moderator acts as a manager of the group. A group can have one or more moderators. Owners and moderators can add members into the group or kick them out. They can also remove photos from the group feed and change the group's profile picture and cover photo. However, only the owner is entitled to promote and demote members into moderator status, change the group name and description, or delete the group.

Super Penguins Game Review For Android

Antarctic Penguin was one of the cutest 8-bit games I grew up with on Nintendo. Then came Spyro, Harvest Moon, and Final Fantasy 7 for PlayStation. And then I moved on to more "mature" games like the Command & Conquer Series (PlayStation and PC), Left4Dead (PC), and more recently, Dead Trigger for Android. But there's nothing quite like Antarctic Penguin. I even went as far as downloading an emulator just so I could see that round little penguin bounce to the side whenever it hit a seal or a crack in the middle of ice.

Super Penguins is a FREE game for Android and iOS that has the same ditsy appeal of Antarctic Penguin - minus the 8-bit graphics. This time, it's three-dimensional and the penguins are no longer helpless.

The story?

Your penguin colony needs fish to survive and octopi happen to feed on the same food. Since they're evil, they held your penguin friends captive and took all the fish away. Your goal is to collect as many fish as you can before perishing in their tentacles. Oh! And you get to save your penguin friends along the way too.

Gameplay

You get to choose from 8 characters: 5 cute penguins, a beaver, a penguin-bot, and a platypus.

Seriously. There's a platypus. And a beaver.

The blue penguin is a free character but the rest of them you have to either buy with in-game cash fish, earn as a reward by making an in-app purchase, or get by liking the Super Penguins Facebook Fan Page.

When you play the game for the first time, you will be taken through a tutorial on what and what not to do. The actions are so simple that even my 4-year old son picked them up after his first try. Just tilt your device left or right to collect fish and avoid obstacles, and tap the screen to jump. That's it!

Now I couldn't help but notice its similarities with Temple Run in terms of gameplay. You're going to take your penguin (or whichever character you choose) for an indefinite run across meters of frozen land to collect fish. That is, until you stumble upon a barricade which could be anything from a randomly falling icicle to the tentacle of a giant octopus. When that happens, your cute wittle penguin will drop dead on the ground and you have to start all over from zero meters. Or you can pay 4500 fish upfront to get an extra life and pick up from where you left.

Aww. My wittle blue penguin is dead.

The game has its own shop for purchasing permanent upgrades and temporary powerups. You can use the fish you collected or bought for purchasing stuff from the store. Upgrades and powerups will better your chances of going farther and collecting more fish. You can get as many upgrades as you want until they max out but you will be limited to one powerup for each run. During the run however, you can receive powerups by rescuing penguins-in-distress.

There are currently 6 powerups to choose from before making a run. That includes:

• No ink splats (500 fish) - Lasts throughout the run.
• Extra life (1000 fish) - Single use only. The powerup is used after your character dies so you can continue playing the game.
• Fewer icicles (600 fish) - Lasts throughout the run. Decreases the amount of icicles falling from the sky.
• Double jump (800 fish) - Lasts throughout the run. To activate, tap the screen to jump and then tap again while the character is in mid-air.
• Rocket 300m (300 fish) - Single use only. Takes you for a 300-meter rocket ride at the start of the run.
• Rocket 500m (500 fish) - Single use only. Takes you for a 500-meter rocket ride at the start of the run.
• Rocket 1000m (1000 fish) - Single use only. Takes you for a 1000-meter rocket ride at the start of the run. But you probably already knew that.

Features

• Achievements keep track of your progress
• Locally saves your all-time high score
• Share scores to friends on Facebook and Twitter
• Take a screenshot of your score at the end of a run

Graphics and performance

For a free app, Super Penguins is quite the looker. The environment renders smoothly during gameplay and I don't see any artifacts. Its interface all throughout is user-friendly and visually appealing. It's definitely a top-notch find amidst the low-quality apps that dominate the Android market.

The game runs smoothly on my two devices including a Samsung Galaxy Tab 7 and Galaxy S2. There are no freezes, stuck-ups, force closes, and the like. My Galaxy Tab 7 couldn't even handle Temple Run without lags and it's a delight to see that it has no problems with Super Penguins.

Verdict

Given its high-quality graphics, smooth performance, and simple but fun gameplay, I'm not surprised that the game has a 4.5-star rating on the Google Play Store. It's a gem in a sea of stones. The game is easy enough for youngsters and equally as motivating to keep older crowds hooked for some time.

Download US Only Apps To Your Android - No Root Required

A few weeks ago, I taught you how to download region-specific apps (such as US only) to your Android. That particular method involves rooting your phone and losing your warranty. Today I'm going to teach you how to do the same without rooting your phone.

That's right.

You can download regional applications straight to your Android without the risk of bricking it or losing your warranty.

Now this is something I discovered by accident. Thus, I can't guarantee it works for all area-specific applications. However, it's worth a try. Anyway, it's very easy to do. Whether or not it works for you I would love to hear your feedback on the comments below!

Prerequisites

• Android 2.1 and higher

HOW TO ACCESS US-ONLY (AND OTHER AREA-SPECIFIC) APPS ON YOUR ANDROID

Step 1: Download AppBrain App Market from Google Play (free)

Step 2: Launch AppBrain

Go through the start-up process. No need to sign up but it's up to you, really.

Step 3: On AppBrain, search for an area-specific application

A good example is Blogger for Android which is limited to specific regions like the US and UK.

Step 4: Select the app you are looking for

Click "Install".

You will be redirected to Google Play only this time, you now have access to the regional app.

Step 5: Click "Install" or purchase the app if it's paid

Then, wait for the app to finish downloading.

I know this worked on me because if I search for Blogger on Google Play Store, the app doesn't show. It only appears when using the AppBrain App Market. If this technique doesn't work for you, you can always try Market Enabler. But as previously mentioned it needs a rooted device. Dowloading from third-party app markets is no longer an option these days. Haven't you heard? They got nabbed by NBI.

SGS2 JB ROM Review: Super Nexus Build 2 by Faryaab

Knowing @Faryaab and his previous work on F1 Galaxy Nexus, I knew that Super Nexus was going to showcase what he does best - a raw Android experience. Super Nexus does just that and offers Jelly Bean on a buttery platter. For an early release, the Super Nexus is an impressive custom JB ROM.

Version reviewed in this post: Super Nexus BUILD 2
Build date: 08-11-2012
Developer: Faryaab of XDA Forum
Original XDA thread here

Pros

• What works: WiFi, Camera, Video Recording, GPS
• Stable. Force closes are very rare. Most FCs are due to an app's incompatibility with Jelly Bean and therefore the app developer's fault (not Faryaab). On that note, I say "screw you Gameloft."
• Good battery life. My phone lasted approximately 1 day 6 hours on light use and 15 hours 22 minutes on light to moderate use.**

** During light use, phone was: Awake (4h13m), Screen On (2h36m), WiFi On (5h26m). During light to moderate use, phone was: Awake (4h37m), Screen On (2h 26m), WiFi On (4h59m). Battery info c/o Battery Monitor Widget.

• Real slick. Everything loads fast - even the Gallery.
• Features all the Jelly Bean goodies such as Google Now and a much-improved notification system. In case you're wondering, they work smoothly on Super Nexus.
• Light-weight and bloatware-free.
• Clean UI. More professional looking than Ice Cream Sandwich.

Cons

• Bug: Gallery app sometimes force closes while being used by other applications (see Gallery below for more info)
• No toggle shortcuts on the Notifications Drawer. This is the drawback of aiming for a vanilla Jelly Bean experience.
• Non-resizable widgets. Maybe I just got used to Apex Launcher?
• You can't change the lock screen wallpaper. Whatever the home screen has, the lock screen gets.

How To Do A Nandroid Backup Using CWM Manager and CWM Recovery

If you like flashing custom ROMS or is at least considering the idea, one of the most important things you need to learn is performing a Nandroid backup. It sounds complicated but trust me, it's much easier than you think. One way of doing it is through CWM Manager which happens to be easier. Another way is through CWM Recovery, a pretty basic but lengthier approach. In this article you will learn how to use both for creating Nandroid backups.

The great thing about a Nandroid backup us that it saves everything about the system on your device. That includes your system data and more importantly, user data. All the apps you have installed, the user data individually saved by these applications, your phone contacts, the accounts tied to the device - every detail will be retained and these are but to name a few. Even the kernel and boot image you have installed will be saved. You can think of a Nandroid backup as a camera that captures everything in a snapshot. So if you want to revert to an old (and probably more stable) ROM after trying a new one, just flash or restore an existing Nandroid backup and things will be back the way they were. There are a few requirements if you want to backup of your current ROM.

Prerequisites

• Rooted device. Sadly, you need to have a rooted phone. If you're wondering about the advantages and disadvantages of rooting, you can refer to this post - 
• Custom recovery

HOW TO DO NANDROID BACKUP USING CWM MANAGER

CWM Manager is an application that comes pre-installed in custom ROMs with CF-Root kernels. If you flash CF Root on top of an official firmware, CWM Manager will automatically be installed on your phone too. The app will still take you to CWM Recovery but with the added benefits of:

1. Changing the file name
2. Choosing between internal and external SD card for the backup.

Step 1: Launch the application

Step 2: Select "Backup"

Step 3: Change the back-up name and press "OK"

CWM Recovery saves back-ups on a date-and-time format. CWM Manager gives you the option to change that. If you don't want to lose track of your back-ups, it's best that you edit the file name from here. I suggest you name a backup based on its firmware version and kernel like "XXLPX-Abyss1.2".

Step 4: Choose your backup location.

Choose between internal SD and external SD card. The available memory will be displayed so you can make a proper choice.

Step 5: Wait for the process to finish.

Your phone will automatically reboot to CWM Recovery for the back-up process. When it's finished, your phone will reboot normally.

Step 6: Check for successful backup.

Launch CWM Recovery once again and click "Restore". See if the backup coincides with the file name you assigned from Step 3 to ensure that the process was successful.

HOW TO DO NANDROID BACKUP USING CLOCKWORKMOD RECOVERY

An old-fashioned way of doing a Nandroid backup is through CWM Recovery. If you don't have CWM Manager, this is the best tool for performing backups. Use the volume rocker to navigate up and down CWM Recovery and the power button for making a selection. If you have a touch-based recovery, use the on-screen navigation.

Step 1: Go to recovery mode.*

*The method for this varies across devices. For Samsung Galaxy S2, the phone must be turned off first. Then press the Volume Up + Menu + Power simultaneously to go to recovery mode. Find out how it is done for your device but if you have a Samsung smartphone, the method described earlier will probably work on you too.

Step 2: Go to backup and restore > backup (to save in external SD) OR backup to internal sdcard (to save in internal SD)

Step 3: Wait for the process to finish.

Step 4: Check for a successful backup.

Go to backup and restore > restore (if backup is in external SD) OR restore from internal sdcard (if backup is in internal SD). There should be a file name closest to the date and time you performed the backup in Step 2. If it's there, backup was successful.

Step 5: Select Go Back > reboot system now.

Dead Trigger Survival Tips: Bloody Subway Arena Walkthrough (v1.5.1 ONLY)

Only works for v1.5.1 :-) If you have v1.5.0 and lower versions of Dead Trigger, please refer to this Bloody Subway cheat guide.

The recent update (v1.5.1) for Dead Trigger fixes the bugs detailed in the Bloody Subway cheat guide that took me some time to perfect. This time, I can't guarantee you're going to survive for more than 50 waves - unless you're that good. I did come up with new survival tips so you can last longer than usual.

Disclaimer: How long you actually survive depends on your character level, character upgrades, weapons, and skills at evading those f*cking zombies.

I do apologize for the poor quality of my photos because Screenshot ER Ultra isn't allowing me to save screenshots in JPEG format :-( But if you want to survive for longer, I suggest you read everything so that you will understand the summarized survival tips at the end of this post.

CHARACTER, WEAPONS, AND ITEMS

You need to be at least Rank 13 to get the following recommended character upgrades, weapons, and items.

Character

• 2-3 weapon slots
• 3-4 item slots

Aside from these, the following character upgrades are also recommended for the Bloody Subway Arena. It is entirely up to you which ones you will get but I arranged them based on importance from top (most important) to bottom (least important).

• Improved Radar (39G)
• Additional Health (99G at Rank 1 AND/OR $5000 at Rank 8)
• Ammo Supply (99G at Rank 1 AND/OR $30000 at Rank 10)

Weapons

You can use the following weapons depending on the slots you have. To survive longer, do upgrade these recommended weapons to increase their damage, accuracy, range, and clips. 

For those who have 2 weapon slots...

• Slot 1: Minigun OR Bren for regular zombies and bosses.
• Slot 2: Brain-mill OR Chainsaw for killing SWAT zombies.

For those with 3 weapon slots...

• Slot 1: Minigun OR Bren
• Slot 2: KSG OR RMGT 870 OR any weapon of your choice for shooting zombies while running around. When you reach Rank 15, you can upgrade to Striker because it is the only shotgun with the most clips. Ideally, you should have a high-damage medium-range weapon so you can easily kill zombies the moment you cross them.
• Slot 3: Brain-mill OR Chainsaw

For those with 4 weapon slots...

• Slot 1: Minigun OR Bren
• Slot 2: Bren (if you have Minigun) OR Lewis OR any weapon of your choice. For this slot, it is best that you place any high-range weapon with a high number of clips. It will serve as your alternative to the weapon on Slot 1 in case you run out of ammo.
• Slot 3: KSG OR RMGT 870 OR Striker (for Rank 15 only)
• Slot 4: Brain-mill OR Chainsaw.

Items

I highly recommend that you get a Speed Booster which costs 399G at Rank 1. Speed is the most important aspect of survival in the Bloody Arena. So work hard by playing Daily Rewards and take your chance at the Casino. If you can't get a Speed Booster, it's okay! I provided alternatives below :-)

Have 2 item slots?

• Slot 1: Speed Booster OR 2 Revive Kits
• Slot 2: 2 Medkits OR 5 Bandages

Have 3 item slots?

• Slot 1: 2 Medkits
• Slot 2: Speed Booster OR Slow Time. Slow Time will give you allowance to get either Additional Health or Ammo Refill without being chased around by zombies.
• Slot 3: 2 Revive Kits OR 5 Bandages

Have 4 item slots?

• Slot 1: 2 Medkits
• Slot 2: Speed Booster OR Slow Time
• Slot 3: 2 Revive Kits
• Slot 4: 5 Bandages

BLOODY SUBWAY SURVIVAL GUIDE

The "Safe Zone" And Some Zombie-Killing Tips

Upon entering the Bloody Subway Arena, turn to your right and run!

See that gate over there? Unlock it and climb the staircase.

This will be your "safe zone" or the place where you're staying most of the time. Zombies will be coming from two sides - your left and right.

Zombies to your right must be shot dead on the spot using your weapon from Slot 1.

Zombies from the left staircase can either be shot in the leg or killed on the spot. If you have an Improved Radar, this will come in handy. Now look at your radar. If there are NO zombies to your right, kill the zombie(s) on the bottom of the staircase.

But if there are zombies to your right, just dismember them by shooting them in the legs. This will buy you enough time to kill zombies on your right and change ammo clips by the time the staircase zombies reach the top.

When surrounded by hoards of zombies at the safe zone, RUN! After running, you can deal with the zombies in different ways. Whichever strategy you take, remember that zombies will be following you around even if you ran in circles. So the trick is to lose them or have them chasing after you from a single direction.

What do I do when I'm surrounded by zombies?

You can run downstairs (granted there are no zombies waiting at the bottom) and just shoot them from there. If they come too close, run upstairs again towards the safe zone and shoot them.

When you see zombies coming from all directions, run down the safe zone staircase and outside towards the lobby. Avoid zombies you encounter so they don't hit you. Then climb up one of the two staircases in the lobby and run back towards the safe zone from the second floor. By doing this, most zombies will be entering the safe zone from one direction - the doorway on the right. 

Tips: While running around, shoot a few zombies using a Striker. You can use any shotgun or high-damage medium-range weapon. Also, reload your primary weapon while running so when you reach the safe zone, you can get back to killing zombies.

Reloading Your Weapon

Reloading your weapon at the wrong time is bad for survival. In fact, you may die out of it.

When do I reload my primary weapon?

1. When there are no zombies around. Use your radar or plain sight to detect nearby zombies. Don't wait for your ammunition to run out before changing clips.
2. While running around. Whether you are trying to avoid zombies or shaking off an entire hoard, save time and your life by reloading.

Ammo Refill, Additional Health, and Power-Ups

Ammo Refill, Additional Health, and Power-Ups are available at all Dead Trigger Arenas. These areas need a few hundred dollars to unlock but definitely worth-it.

Where can I find Ammo Refill? At the safe zone; particularly the wall on the back.

When do I buy Ammo Refills?

1. At the end of each wave.
2. If you ran out of ammo and still have a few zombies to slay.

Ammo Refill at Bloody Subway safe zone

Where can I find Power-Ups? On the room opposite to the safe zone on the second floor. You have to unlock this area using money.

When do I get Power-Ups? See the "Power-Ups Guide" below for a detailed explanation.

Bloody Subway Power-Ups Area

Where can I get Additional Health? On the ground floor, in between the two staircases of the lobby. The cost for refilling your health is around $100 to $1000 depending on how much you need.

When do I get Additional Health? When down to your last 1-2 zombies during a wave and you realize you need life, shoot off their legs and run to get Additional Health.

See the yellow arrow below? That's how you check for the last 1-2 zombies of the wave.

Below is an example of me running for life. Oh no, only 9 seconds left! Make sure that by that time, you are already on your way back to the safe zone!

Now let's talk about Power-Ups and how they can help you defeat bosses.

Power-Ups Guide

You can only buy (1) Power-Up after every 2 waves. So if you buy a Power-Up during Wave 1, you can't buy another one until Wave 3. Each Power-Up lasts throughout a wave. So if you buy one at the start of Wave 1, it will expire once you finish the wave. The Power-Up alternates between Head-Flator and Damage Booster. The first available Power-Up is always a Head-Flator followed by Damage Booster, Head-Flator, and so on.

When do I get a Power-Up? Here's a step-by-step guide to help you understand how it works...

1. When you are down to the last 1-2 zombies of Wave 1, I want you to shoot off their legs and run towards the Power-Ups Area. Unlock it.
2. Enter the caged room and stay there until the crawling zombies come near you. If they do, kill them to end the wave. If they die on their way to you, the wave will automatically end.
3. When the wave ends, get the Head-Flator Power-Up before the countdown begins and run back to the safe zone. Then, refill your ammo.
4. During Wave 4, repeat step 1-3. This time, you will be getting a Damage Booster and prepare for Wave 5. Run towards the safe zone and buy an Ammo Refill.

The steps described above is a cycle you should stick to for killing zombie bosses.

Killing The Boss

Boss Waves occur at Waves of 5 - Wave 5, 10, 15, 20, etc. To kill the boss, you need to:

1. Get the Damage Booster Power-Up during boss waves.
2. Get the Head-Flator 2-3 waves before boss waves. This will ensure the availability of the Damage Booster during boss levels.
3. Find his "soft spot".

The "soft spot" is a sensitive body part of the boss. When you hit it, he will tilt his head. If you don't, he will just stand there and do nothing then run towards you. To find his soft spot:

1. Shoot the boss at different parts of his body. My personal favorite is his neck but sometimes, he gets hurt when you shoot him in the stomach and feet.
2. If the boss doesn't tilt his head after shooting him at different parts, WASTE NO TIME. Run and reload your ammo. Once he chases after you, try shooting him again at different body parts and as soon as he tilts his head and flails his arms, CONTINUOUSLY SHOOT HIM IN THE HEAD.
3. If the boss tilts his head in your first attempt, aim at his head and continuously shoot at it til he dies.
4. If you run out of ammo and the boss is still alive, repeat steps 1-3 until he dies.

Below is an example of a boss you SHOULDN'T continue shooting in the head. See how he's just standing around? It means your bullets aren't hurting him.

AVOID THE GREEN SPIT OF THE BOSS AT ALL COSTS. It will limit your vision and prevent you from seeing clearly. You can do this by sidestepping to your left or right the moment he spits at you.

After killing the boss, time will slow down as he falls to the ground. Take this opportunity to:

1. Reload your weapon.
2. Get Ammo Refill if you ran out.
3. Kill other nearby zombies.

I killed the boss yay!

Congrats on killing the first boss for the wave. That's right. There's likely second boss coming at you before the wave ends. So if don't have at least at least 150 bullets on your primary weapon, get an Ammo Refill at the safe zone. Now go get him.

Tip: Don't forget to refill your ammo once again after the wave ends!

And now, a revised version of my survival tips for the Bloody Subway!

SUMMARY: BLOODY SUBWAY ARENA SURVIVAL TIPS

1. Use a shotgun when running outside of the safe zone. You can also use any high-damage medium-range weapon of your choice. Shoot the zombies closest to you and avoid the the rest until you get back to the safe zone.
2. Don't run for petty cash during waves. Unless you are absolutely sure there are no zombies around (and the cash is really, really close to you), don't go for it! You will be paid thousands of dollars if you survive a wave :-) The higher the wave, the greater your rewards will be.
3. Only use your bandages or medkits during emergencies. Anyway, you can run for Additional Health in between waves. BTW, never use them while surrounded by zombies because you will just lose the life you gained.
4. Use your Revive Kits sparingly. If you are surrounded by a swarm of zombies or confronted by the boss zombie and got nowhere to run, let yourself be killed and the Revive Kit will kill those bastards.
5. If you can run, then run! One thing I learned from The Walking Dead is that those f*ckers are stupid and you can avoid them. Running around the Bloody Subway is really great for losing zombies. You should also run the moment you're surrounded to avoid extensive damage.
6. At the safe zone, kill all zombies to your right.
7. At the safe zone, dismember OR kill zombies coming from the left stairway. Only dismember if there are zombies approaching from your right. Kill the stairway zombies when there are none to your right.
8. Shoot in the head. Yep. There's no better way to kill them. Carnages are awesome but they are a waste of ammunition.
9. Use Minigun or Bren for killing regular zombies and bosses. But you can also use any high-range weapon with high number of clips as your primary weapon.
10. Use a chainsaw or Brain-Mill for killing the SWAT zombie. There's no faster way to kill them.
11. Look at the radar. Check on it regularly to see if it's safe to refill your ammo or reload.
12. Only use the Damage Booster during boss levels.
13. Get the Head-Flator 2-3 waves before the boss level.
14. Use Slow Time in extreme emergencies. Example: If you have a low life but already ran out of bandages, Medkits, and Revive Kits.
15. Practice. It takes time to get used to this routine. You might not get it at first but you will eventually. So keep practicing until you get your rhythm.
