With Apple currently locked in a vicious legal battle with Samsung over various patents it is clear that the people behind the iPhone are serious about keeping their edge over the competition.
It’s been quite a steady year for mobile OS usage this year. Worldwide, the top eight mobile OS platforms have relatively stayed in their same positions, in terms of usage, for most of the year. While Symbian OS has kept its throne successfully, the real action is between iOS and Android.
Apple has just seeded the first beta version of iOS 5.1 for iPhone 4S, iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, iPad 2, iPad 1, and iPod touch to the registered developers of iOS Dev Center.
We previously reported how you can unlock your brand new iPhone 4S on any baseband, including 04.11.08 and 04.10.01, without any hardware or software modifications. Now, successful unlocking to T-Mobile in U.S. and other countries' networks have been reported using the iPhone 4, and iPhone 3GS as well. The method may be a bug and could be fixed with the next iOS update.
Much like the signal issues with the iPhone 4 release last June, the launch of Apple's much-improved dual-core model has been dogged with problems - the battery being the main culprit this time around.
Apple has just released an updated version of its nearly month-old iOS 5, for iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users. There was a lot of toil and moil involved in creating iOS 5, and with several pre-release betas being thrown out to developers in the months leading up to release, it was almost inevitable that there would be a swift update after the public finally got their greasy paws on iOS 5.0.
While iOS 5.0.1 can already be jailbroken using Redsn0w for Windows and Mac, hacker and developer iH8sn0w has also updated his famous jailbreak tool for Windows called Sn0wbreeze to support iOS 5.0.1 beta jailbreak.
iOS 5.0.1 has been released - and, chances are, you may be looking to downgrade to an earlier version of iOS because of one reason or another. Today, we’re going to guide you on how to do exactly that so you can go back to whichever version of iOS you are comfortable with.
The patent system is a meticulous, drawn-out system, and it often takes inventors and innovators years to finally be acknowledged as the brains behind the ideas.
When Apple released its latest and most changed version of iOS two weeks ago, bringing us up to version number 5.0, there was little-to-no doubt that the update would be considerable. If there is one thing that the iOS eco-system has over its Android competition, it's the fact that users tend to update their handsets and tablets to the latest version of iOS.
