As many have predicted over the last few days, the fourth beta of iOS 5, Apple's next-generation mobile operating system, has just been released to developers today. While we didn't get the chance to play with the new build yet, it's likely to bring further feature enhancements and bug fixes to iOS 5.
Released alongside iOS 4.3.4 is iOS 4.2.9 for CDMA based iPhone 4 on Verizon’s network that patches PDF vulnerability in Mobile Safari exposed by the recently released JailbreakMe 3.0 tool by Comex.
Apple has just released a new 4.2.2 software update (based on iOS 4.3) for the second generation Apple TV. This release contains various bug fixes and improvements over the last release.
If there is one area where Apple's iOS still lags behind Google's Android, it's in the software updating process. As things stand today, eager updaters must first be informed that an update is available and then run off to plug their iDevice into a computer for iTunes to work its magic. Contrast this with the painless over-the-air nature of Android's updates and it's clear to see where Apple needs to be focusing its energy right now.
iOS 4.2.8 is also available now for CDMA iPhone 4 users on Verizon, alongside iOS 4.3.3 for GSM iPhone 4, iPad 2, iPad, iPod touch 3G/4G to fix the much talked about iOS location tracking bug.
Apple has just released iOS 4.3.3 update for iPhone 4 (iOS 4.2.8 for Verizon iPhone 4), iPhone 3GS, iPad 2, iPad, and iPod touch 4G/3G. This is just a minor update to mainly fix the location tracking bug which was found in iOS 4.x.
We told you a couple of days ago about a handy little app that allows users to download iOS firmware files direct from the web, as well as listing what apps are required in order to jailbreak and unlock each one. The only issue was ipswDownloader was OS X only. Thanks to one individual, that's no-longer the case.
What we like at Redmond Pie is nice simple apps that do one thing and do it well. Fitting firmly into that category has to be ipswDownloader - an OS X app built with the sole purpose of downloading the IPSW firmware files Apple releases for iOS.
Apple has just released iOS 4.3.2 update for iPhone 4 (iOS 4.2.7 for Verizon iPhone 4), iPhone 3GS, iPad 2, iPad, and iPod touch 4G/3G. This is just a minor update to fix bugs, DNS issues, fix document viewer, FaceTime issues, vulnerabilities and some battery life woes on all iOS devices.
Apple has just released iOS 4.3.1 update for iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPad 2, iPad, and iPod touch 4G/3G. This is just a minor update to fix bugs, vulnerabilities and battery life woes on all iOS devices.
