New releases of iOS usually mean new releases of iOS jailbreaking software and the same goes for new betas, too. With Apple releasing iOS 5 beta 2 to developers on Friday, we heard that Redsn0w could be used to jailbreak iPhones, iPads and iPod touches for the Mac users amongst us. But what if you're (un)lucky enough to be tied into the Windows world?
iPhoneLS is a new screensaver for Windows that simulates the iOS lock screen just the way you’d expect: after this screensaver is running, you’ll see a “slide to unlock” screen which brings you back to your desktop once your slide it to the right. Sounds better than the annoying bubbles, or 3D text, am I right?
When Apple senior vice president of iPhone Software, Scott Forstall, took to the stage at WWDC in San Francisco to announce iOS 5, one of the much-anticipated features to finally see the light of day was the ability to perform iOS updates without connecting the iDevice to a computer.
Now iOS 5 beta 2 has been in the wild for a couple of hours, reports are starting to flood in of what's changed, what's fixed and worryingly, what's broken.
Apple's just-released iOS 5 beta 2 enables the much vaunted WiFi Sync feature we've all been waiting for, and is available to iOS developers now.
As expected, Apple released iOS 5 Beta 2 today to all registered developers, making this the second release of iOS 5 released publicly. While it's still clearly months away from completion, Beta 2 includes several bug fixes and enhancements, including improved battery life on all devices.
According to an employee at China Mobile, China's state-owned mobile carrier, the long-awaited next-generation iPhone will hit shelves in September. This is yet another report in a long chain of rumors of a next-generation iPhone, which have intensified over the last few days.
What do you do when you’re trying to sell your network to geeks? For a T-Mobile spokesman, it involved pointing out that the carrier is currently home to over 1 million unlocked iPhones, even though those devices aren’t officially supported by the carrier.
If recent reports are to be believed, the next-generation iPhone will feature a dual-LED flash. According to sources, Apple has reduced orders for high-powered LED flash lights from Philips and has begun ordering dual-LED flashes from Taiwan-based makers.
Apple's iCloud is home to more than a few cool, interesting and downright funky new features, and we're sure it's going to be a much-needed tonic to the chaos and shear nastiness that is MobileMe.
