Just last month we told you about SMSHideKeyboard, a jailbreak tweak that brought iOS 5-like SMS keyboard hiding to the jailbreak scene.
Today we have a similar tweak, but one that has a trick up its sleeve. Going by the name of MailKeyboardHide, this slight variation of SMSHideKeyboard offers the ability to hide the iPhone's keyboard during the composition of emails.
And it also does more than that...
According to new a figure coming out of in-flight WiFi provider GoGo, Apple's iPhone makes up two thirds of mobile device usage in the skies. The iPhone's smaller sibling, the iPod touch, also accounts for a massive 20% of those using a small-screened device to access the internet while in the sky.
It's not such good news for Google's Android, however. According to an AllThingsD report, despite there being more different Android devices than there are people on the planet, (perhaps a slight exaggeration) devices powered by Google's operating system make up a paltry 12% of mobile devices used...
Cell phone use in children and adolescents does not increase the risk of either groups suffering from brain tumors, according to a new report.
In claims that fly in the face of both past research and public opinion, a report published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute answers the question we've all been wondering: Will talking on my iPhone give me cancer?
In a study that involved 1000Â participants, the results suggest that the fears that children are more susceptible to radiation from phones, such as the iPhone, may be unfounded after all...
When Apple unveiled the iPhone 4 on Verizon in February, everyone thought that the iPhone's cross-carrier distribution in the US would be the end of Android and other competitors. That hasn't been the case, as Verizon's adoption of the iPhone hasn't slowed AT&T sales of Apple's smartphone at all. Also, overall iPhone market share hasn't seen that impressive of an increase since Verizon picked up the iPhone 4.
A new report from Asymco details how Verizon is just a "small bang" in iPhone sales, and how the "big bang" is actually happening overseas.
Skyfire, most famous for its mobile web browsers, has announced a new iOS app that promises to finally bring Flash to Apple's mobile devices.
In bringing functionality to the App Store that Apple has been adamant that it doesn't want, the Skyfire VideoQ app is available in just the United States and Canada for now, with both the iPad and iPhone app expected to be released internationally at a later date...
A new report from Nielsen says that Apple is the number one smartphone vendor in the US, while Android remains the most popular mobile operating system. This research follows Apple's last earnings call, in which it was announced that 20 million iPhones were sold in the last business quarter.
Following Apple's dominance in the US is, surprisingly, Motorola. Samsung actually placed third, with both Motorola and Samsung owning a huge percentage of the Android market. Essentially, Apple moves more hardware while Android gets installed on more handsets.
According to China Times, the iPhone 5 is set to be released in the second week of September with an opening order of 4 million units. This speculation lines up with current predictions.
According to suppliers, 400,000 trial units are currently being prepared. The news report goes on to say that the next generation iPad may be delayed until Thanksgiving due to component shortages...
Apple and one of its main smartphone competitors, Samsung, are looking into the idea of using solar power in future devices, according to the ever (un)reliable DigiTimes.
While it will probably be a long time before this becomes a reality, the technology would let solar cells become part of iPhones, iPads and other devices...
While it's generally accepted that Android smartphones sell like hot cakes, it might not all be good news for the platform. According to one report, the strong sales figures may mask an underlying problem that Android-packing smartphones face— keeping the sale.
TechCrunch has reported today that Android return rates could be as high as 30-40%. For comparison, Apple's iPhone sees a return rate in the single digits....
Yesterday, Apple released iOS 4.3.5. The update fixed a security vulnerability with certificate validation. If you jailbreak and use UltraSn0w, stay away from this update. But if you are a Gevey SIM user, we have some good news.
Even though we previously reported that Apple blocked the Gevey SIM in iOS 5 Beta 2 and above, the Gevey SIM works with iOS 4.3.5...
Following the release of iOS 4.3.5 this morning, we issued our usual warning about staying away from the latest firmware so that you don't lose your jailbreak or unlock.
This warning is still in effect for those who don't want a tethered jailbreak. For the rest of you who don't mind plugging your iDevice in your computer every time you have to reboot, the word on the street is that RedSn0w can jailbreak iOS 4.3.5...
We're all waiting for the next iPhone announcement, with the smart money on a release date of late August to late September, depending on which rumor you subscribe to. The latest information coming out of the Apple rumor mill points to the same release window, with news that Verizon is beginning to clear out inventory to make way for the new handset.
We're always skeptical about trusted tipsters, but the guys at Phone Arena seem to think this one is legit, and if it is, Verizon obviously knows something that we don't....
