We knew it was coming. Rumors of Verizon killing off the unlimited data plan have been running wild for several months now. Not to mention, most of the speculation has pointed to a summer deadline.
Well it appears the gossip is true. DroidLife recently outlined an all-to-likely scenario of Verizon's intent to roll out tiered data plans next month. Obviously, for that to happen, the $30 dollar unlimited plan must go...
When Apple first unveiled iOS 5 earlier this month, Scott Forstall and company mentioned that the new firmware would house over 200 new features. While only a few of them were touched on during the company's keynote, people have been working non-stop to uncover the hidden additions.
The latest tip to surface comes from the folks over at Apple'N'Apps. The blog noticed a change in iOS 5 that has to do with app downloading. It appears the new firmware will allow users to download multiple apps at a time, even over 3G...
Comex, the creator of the userland jailbreak known as JailbreakMe, has developed a method for a much faster install time in his upcoming jailbreak. He has managed to get rid of Cydia's "Reorganizing Filesystem" message by abandoning the current 'stashing' filesystem approach.
The advancements made in Comex's jailbreak are expected to drastically reduce the time it takes to actually jailbreak an iDevice.
iH8sn0w's popular jailbreak tool for Windows, Sn0wBreeze, has been updated with support for an untethered iOS 5 jailbreak on the iPhone 3GS. iOS 5 is still in the Beta 1 stage, and Sn0wBreeze Beta 2 is the first method available for an untethered iOS 5 jailbreak on the iPhone 3GS.
Thanks to the old bootrom on the 3GS, users can enjoy a fully untethered iOS 5 Beta 1 jailbreak with the newly released Sn0wBreeze update.
We apologize if you got excited about the return of JailbreakMe today. A rumor got started this morning that claimed Comex was releasing his iPad 2 jailbreak through JailbreakMe.com this afternoon.
As it turns out, the teaser image (reportedly from Comex's Twitter account) that started this rumor has been proved fake, and we're back to the drawing board in terms of an iPad 2 jailbreak ETA.
After Comex teased that the iPad 2 jailbreak is "almost ready," a rumor has started circulating that the famed jailbreak site, JailbreakMe.com, will return today with the long-awaited jailbreak for the iPad 2.
According to Nexus404, the above image briefly appeared on Comex's Twitter account last night, but the image link was almost immediately pulled. Comex has been working on an iPad 2 jailbreak for quite some time, and this image could be a teaser he created and published prematurely...
If you are currently running the beta build of iOS 5 on any of your iDevices, you might want to read this. That goes double for folks using the firmware that don't have an Apple developer's account.
Known jailbreak developer iH8sn0w warned the Twitter nation yesterday that the iOS 5 Beta 1 has an expiration date. Once expired, the firmware will lock you out of your device until it's downgraded or iOS 5 officially launches...
A few days ago, we gave you a list of passwords not to use. You might recall that the data from the post was collected from an iOS app called Big Brother Security. The software made headlines when the developer went public with the information.
Daniel Amitay performed a little experiment by anonymously collecting user's 4 digit passwords from his Big Brother Security app. Though his findings were quite interesting, publishing them may not have been the brightest move...
For those of you who are not familiar with Google Sync, it allows you keep your mails, calendars, and contact synced with your Google account. By using Google Sync, you never have to worry about backing up or accidentally losing your data, because it's always synced with Google.
Today, the Google Mobile blog announces an update to their underrated service, giving iOS users three new features...
This particular court battle between Nokia and Apple has been a doozy. Nokia originally filed suit against the Cupertino company back in 2010, citing their use of data transmission and certain antenna technologies as patent infringement.
Earlier this year, an ITC judge ruled in favor of Apple, claiming that he saw no evidence of infringement in their products. Just days after the court's decision, Nokia launched a 2nd lawsuit against the iPhone makers which appears to have been much more successful...
Apple announced a major software update for iDevices last week, iOS 5. The new firmware will introduce over 200 new features in iOS, and is expected to seriously impact the jailbreak community.
But jailbreakers haven't skipped a beat since the beta version of iOS 5 rolled out last Monday. Within 24 hours of the release, jailbreak software was updated to support the new firmware. Now you can add Sn0wbreeze to that list of iOS 5 compatible tools...
