With these new revelations, is Antid0te still the medicine that your iPhone needs? Check inside for the latest information...
Delta Airlines, the world's largest airline, has been making great strides to stay relevant and continue providing helpful services to its customers. They have the largest fleet of WiFi-enabled planes, and they are now the first airline to start rolling out official charging stations in their airport terminals.
The technological traveler is always worrying about the state of their device's battery life before they board for a long plane trip. iPhones haven't exactly been known for their outstanding battery life.
Normally, one would have to scour the far corners of an airport gate to try to find an open outlet to get a last minute charge. Last week, Delta Airlines started installing charging stations for all kinds of devices in the gates of 19 major American airports...
The official Google Voice app has just received an update to bring support for iPod Touch and iPad. Now some of you may ask: “How is this possible considering that these devices are not tied to cellular networks?”
Google has implemented a new service called Click2Call. It works by calling one of your registered phones first before you can make the call. Although it would probably be easier just to call from that phone in the first place, it’s nice to see Google making improvements on their apps...
We've heard the rumblings about the supply problems stemming out of Apple's current relationship with LG, the South Korean firm that currently supplies the iPhone LCD screens.
In a move that will likely give Apple more control over supply, Toshiba has announced that it will build a factory for 100 billion yen to produce future LCD panels. That's a lot of money, about 1.2 billion in US dollars, which will certainly put Toshiba in the drivers seat when it comes to supplying screens for the iPhone.
Production isn't scheduled to start until Q3 2011, so it's entirely possible that these new screens could be used for the inevitable iPhone 6...
Over the weekend, a website claiming that sources "we believe to be familiar with the matter" has made some pretty ballsy claims about the Verizon iPhone. Looking at the information shared by this website, it makes no doubt to me that they were just link baiting, you know, like making up stuff to get people to talk about them.
I didn't want to talk about it at first, but seeing how many people actually believe this, I had to raise my voice and tell what I really think about all this. Hint: this is all bs...
We here at iDB love us some good jailbreak apps and tweaks, but there are few that stand out when you take into account sheer practicality.
For example, say you're trying to find your keys in a dark place, or need to know where to position the jumper cables on your stalled car during the cold the night hours? No sweat, you always have a flashlight with you; thanks to your iPhone and SpringFlash.
Did your favorite app make the cut? Are you totally prepared for whatever situation may confront you in a dire time of need? Are we making this way too suspenseful? Check inside and find the answer...
We recently reported that the creator of Cydia, Jay "saurik" Freeman, is close to releasing an official version of Cydia for the Mac. We speculated on if it was really necessary, and if it is important enough to thrive on a desktop ecosystem.
This "Mac Cydia" would seem to be Freeman's direct attempt at the jailbreak, unfiltered version of the new Mac App Store and OS X Lion. Since the news of a Mac Cydia, there have been more details shared from Freeman himself about the goals and features of the OS X version of Cydia...
Doodle Fit was created by Gamelion Studios and is currently one of the top rated, selling and performing puzzle games in the App Store. The objective is really simple. You are presented with a large outlined shape and must fit smaller Tetris-esque blocks to match that given shape.
The game begins very easily to help you get the hang of the concept. You will begin with easy shapes such as Squares and Triangles, but as you progress in the game it will become increasingly difficult...
Steve Jobs is probably the only CEO of a major tech company to personally reply to emails every once in a while. Sometimes revealing future product updates or simply commenting on current affairs, Jobs is known for his short and precise emails that spread around the web in no time.
WikiLeaks, the very controversial website that has leaked hundreds of thousands of classified documents has recently leaked 140,000 emails from Steve Jobs, as unveiled by Scoopertino, which dug into the emails and found a few interesting tidbits for us...
It's no secret that we here at iDB love Angry Birds. One of the most universally recognized games in the App Store, Angry Birds has made quite the name for itself with press and merchandise. You can already get your very own Angry Birds plush toy, and now you can have an Angry Birds iPhone case.
About a month ago, we reported on the rumor that Angry Birds iPhone cases were only in development for a UK carrier. This does not seem to be the case, as official Angry Birds cases have been made available for purchase by Gear4 in partnership with the makers of Angry Birds...
By now, there's virtually a million and one ways to adjust the brightness levels on your iPhone, so is there really a need for yet another way to address the issue?
While there may be other alternatives, few are as quick and simple to use as Light Bright. The developers claim it's the easiest way to adjust the brightness on your iPhone, but is purchasing this tweak a bright idea?
Apple seems to have finally realized that brightness controls are something that end users want quick access too, as evident by their inclusion of multitask bar brightness controls in iOS 4.2 for the iPad. Sadly, there just wasn't enough screen real estate on the iPhone to do something similar...
According to certain device management vendors, Apple, without an explanation of any kind, has dropped its own jailbreak detection API from iOS no less than six months after releasing it. The reasons behind this decision are a mystery, as Apple has declined to comment on the decision to abandon the API in the release of iOS 4.2.1.
Apple's API let MDM (Master Data Management) applications access core information about the version of iOS running on any given device. Basically, the jailbreak detection API allowed certain applications to ask an iOS system if it had been compromised. Surprisingly, in the newly released iOS 4.2.1, that API is nowhere to be seen...
