iOS 8 / 8.1 users can finally enable guest mode on their iPhone, iPad or iPod touch if they are currently jailbroken.
You know what they say about the best laid plans, right? Microsoft's PR wing will be licking its wounds after what appeared to be quite a handy piece of product placement went a tad awry.
The Pangu team's release of a jailbreak for iOS 8 / 8.1 was a very pleasant and prompt surprise, but while we commend the work of the Chinese outfit, the response from the wider community has been equally admirable. Saurik, the author and maintainer of Cydia, has been working tirelessly to bring Cydia up to compliance with both Pangu and iOS 8 / 8.1, and having released a major update last week with a number of fixes, has just rolled out version 1.1.16. Full details, changelog and information on how you can avail this latest version of Cydia can be found after the fold.
Google News & Weather has just been handed a sizeable update, and among the usual array of bug fixes and performance enhancements, now includes support for iOS 8's new Notification Center widget feature. Full details, as well as that download link, can be seen below.
The timing of the Pangu8 jailbreak for devices running iOS 8 has meant that those on iOS 8.0 right through to the latest public build of iOS 8.1 can enjoy the freedom of an untethered jailbreak, irrespective of whether they're rocking an iPhone, iPad or fifth-gen iPod touch. Apple has just rolled out a beta of iOS 8.1.1, which applies a number of key fixes and performance enhancements, but in a bit of disappointing news as far as the jailbreak scene is concerned, also appears to have patched some of the exploits that have allowed Pangu8 to reach so many.
The Apple rumor mill is churning again, and this time it's the iPad mini which finds itself caught in the controversy. Reports are coming in that Apple may be looking to ditch the iPad mini lineup of devices in favor of the upcoming larger-screened iPad Pro.
Apple has released iOS 8.1.1 beta 1 download to iOS Dev Center. This is the first pre-release software since iOS 8.1 was released to public in October this year.
The latest installment of Call of Duty is almost upon us once more, and in anticipation of that all-important release, the supplementary companion apps have been released for iOS, Android and Windows Phone. Details, as well as download links, can be found after the leap.
Jailbreaking is alive and kicking thanks to the behind the scenes work of the Pangu team, which has now announced via Twitter that version 0.4 of its Pangu 8.0-8.1.x Untether package will be available shortly.
The Pangu Untether package version 0.3 has just been re-released on Cydia. This package was initially released yesterday, mainly for 32-bit devices, to fix overheating and over usage of CPU. But immediately after the release, the package was found to cause booting issues on some 64-bit devices and hence was immediately removed from Cydia.
