Iphone 4S Jailbreak

By

Iphone 4S Jailbreak:
Listen up, fanboys and everyone who is looking for jailbreak, because this is one you won’t want to miss. The iPhone 4S has been officially jailbroken. Despite the fact that the latest chipset used in iPad 2 and iPhone 4S (A5) haven’t been exploited so it takes a lot of time for the iOS jailbreaking community to come with a jailbreak for a new iOS device.
The legendary iPhone Dev-Team found a way to get Cydia running on both the iPhone 4S and finally on the iPad 2, though the jailbreak is “VERY preliminary.” As jailbreak author states, there are still big pieces missing and plenty of work left to do, so unfortunately the jailbreak won’t be released to the public just yet. Luckily, we can at least get a peek from screenshots bellow to make sure that this thing is real.
The latest iPhone 4S and iPad 2, both of which are based on a still unexploited dual-core Apple A5 chip, haven’t received a jailbreak for iOS 5 and latest versions yet, but it appears that they’ll be getting one soon as a certain respectable iPhone hacker has let us know that the iPhone 4S has already been jailbroken along with the Cydia installed on iPad 2 as well.
MuscleNerd – well known iPhone hacker and member of the iPhone Dev Team posted on twitter screenshots of jailbroken iOS 5 installed on iPhone 4s.
VERY preliminary 4S JB: twitpic.com/76vcp4 twitpic.com/76vct2 (Huge missing pieces prevent public release. LOTS of work left)
The jailbreak is in very early stage and is still some time away from a public release. There is no estimated time of arrival for this to public so we expect you all to show a little patience and let the Dev Team do their work that they have done really well since first generation iPhone back in 2007.
iPhone 4s jailbreak pictures are more likely legit as they are shared by MuscleNerd who has done many contributions to iPhone hacking community over the past few years. The first shared screenshot shows gained root access on the iPhone 4S (Apple codename N94) on iOS 5 whereas the second screenshot shows latest version of Cydia running on iPhone 4,1 (which is another name for the 4S widely used on web) with a Siri voice assistant prompt at the bottom. You can see the two screenshots below:
iPhone 4s Jailbreak by iPhone Dev Team
All jailbreaks currently available for iOS 5 installed on iPad or iPhone 4 (except for iPhone 3GS with old bootrom) are tethered. That means that users have to be connected to a computer to reboot their device into jailbroken state. If you device hangs you can’t reboot it without losing the jailbreak. While the iPhone hacking community did come up with a SemiTether solution which allowed jailbreaking enthusiasts to reboot into their jailbroken iOS 5 device with limited functionality, it is the untethered jailbreak which we’re waiting for and it seems that we iPhone Dev Team have made huge step forward into right direction.
We all hope that the iOS 5 jailbreak for iPhone 4S will be untethered so we won’t have to be at computer every time there is a need for a reboot. MuscleNerd did not clarified which exploit is being used for the jailbreak and it just might be the one of those five userland exploits which were announced by folks behind the GreenPois0n jailbreaking tool back in September even before the iPhone 4S was released to publick.
The iPhone Dev Team has managed to get latest version of Cydia up and running on both the iPhone 4S and the iPad 2, but claiming that this is very preliminary and that there is still a lot of work left to be done, which means that for those hoping to jailbreak their new iPhone 4S will have to wait until the iPhone Dev Team releases it to the public, or until another developer like Chronic Dev Team finds a way first. As always, we’ll be sure to keep you updated on the latest news from the iPhone 4S jailbreak scene. Stay tuned!

How to turn off Ringbacks on Rogers

By
Rogers just update you to the latest iPhone value pack, or figure out some other way to stick you with their ringbacks service, and you’re desperate to find out how to turn it off? They don’t want to make it easy — they want you to pay money for more Ringbacks — but after over an hour of waiting on 3 different customer service and tech support reps, I got the answer. Here it is: From your Rogers iPhone, text 555 with the word OFF. You’ll get an autoreponder with a link to http://rogers.com/ringbacksoff Tap the link. You need to be on Rogers’ network (i.e. not Wi-Fi) to access this page! Scroll down to the bottom and turn OFF both Ringbacks and Voice Greetings. (Yes, Ringbacks are so annoying they require and additionally annoying Voice Greeting to beg the people who call you not to hang up while they’re annoyed by the Ringback.) Rogers tried to get me to give Ringbacks a chance, saying if I loved the Beatles and my friends new I loved the Beatles, I could entertain them w...

Best Ipad and Iphone Photography Apps

Longtime Exposure Calculator Price: Free/ Available for iPhone, iPod touch, iPad Long-exposure photography fanatics will know that an ND filter can be essential when it comes to extending exposure time for those all-important open shutter shots. Longtime Exposure Calculator by HPR-Solutions is a free iPhone,iPad and iPod touch app that enables you to dial in a projected shutter speed to one column and then 'add' an ND filter as graded in both f/stops and filter names (eg 3 stop or ND8) in the other column. The app then calculates the adjusted exposure. While it is, in part, possible to TTL meter with an ND filter attached to the front of a camera's lens, the results won't always be accurate, and there's a point where things get so dark that it's not possible - especially with in-vogue super-dense filters. Having an off-camera calculation method such as this makes it quick and easy to figure out exposures without so much as needing to put those brain...

How to Reload Operating System on Nuked or Bricked BlackBerry

By
Good Afternoon Class! I’ve been a bit slack in my  BlackBerry 101  lectures as of late – I blame the  Smartphone Round Robin , all the  Contests  we’ve been running on the site and the busy Holiday Season. My apologies! This will be the last 101 lecture of the year… but we’ll be back in 2008 bigger and better than ever. Today’s lecture isn’t really a “newbie” topic, but it’s one that I wanted to cover because in the past three weeks I’ve gone through it half a dozen times and that is  Reloading the Operating System on a BlackBerry that’s totally “Nuked” . I’m not sure if nuked is the technically appropriate word for it (I also use one that starts with an F and ends in an ED and has a CK in the middle), but it is how I refer to a BlackBerry that is stuck in a permanent reboot cycle and is completely, completely unusable. With a Nuked Berry, essentially the device turns on (red LED comes on for a few seconds), then you see the white screen with the hou...
