With iOS 5 set to be released this week, the focus is now firmly drawn towards the when, if, and how of an untethered jailbreak.
Yesterday, we reported that JailbreakMe.com had been sold to an unknown person and that Comex’s web-based jailbreaking tool would be transferred to a new Jailbreaks.me domain. Well, there is good news to be heard regarding the story, as the JailbreakMe.com domain has been transferred to Cydia developer Saurik.
Behind Mail, Mobile Safari is probably one of the most used apps on the iPhone. It's one of the joys of the iOS universe - a lightweight mobile browser that actually behaves like a proper, fully-fledged (bar Flash, obviously) desktop browser. Everyone loves it, and it works well. But it's missing one thing.
During Apple's iPhone event, possibly the most awe-inspiring demonstration was that of the new Siri feature which is built into iOS 5 and the iPhone 4S. Siri's features, which offer users the ability to almost have a conversation with the iPhone 4S, will be exclusive to Apple's new smartphone, with all current hardware left out in the cold.
As you might perhaps already know, the Gold Master build of iOS 5 was just released moments ago. If you're looking to jailbreak the new release of iOS 5, you can do so with the latest version of Redsn0w, just like you've been able to do using previous beta versions of iOS 5.
By now you’re probably aware of the fact that Apple has announced the successor to the all-time famous iPhone 4, the iPhone 4S. If you're an iPhone enthusiast, you might likely already be asking yourself how long it might take for users to get their hands on an untethered jailbreak for the new device. If recent indicators are to be believed, that might happen much sooner than you originally think.
If there is one major complaint that can be leveled at Apple's stock iOS Photos app, it's the complete lack of any kind of basic image editing features. There isn't even a way to rotate your photos, for those rare occasions you manage to take a photo with your iPhone in the wrong orientation.
If you've ever dabbled with the world of jailbreaking, or even if you're a jailbreak aficionado like so many of our readers, the chances are that at some point you've struggled to find what you're looking for in Cydia.
A lot of the jailbreak tweaks passing through our radar at the moment are gesture-orientated, and as you may have surmised, our latest feature, Gesturizer, is no exception.
Cydia is crammed full of various themes, of which the majority are made specifically for Winterboard; and let's face it, the most of them - barring a few exceptions - are also pretty poor. Whilst it's nice have the capacity to add a little personal flavor proceedings, a quick check on YouTube's array of iPhone tutorial videos suggest that tackiness often seems to prevail.
