Here’s how to enable WhatsApp voice calling (VoIP) on iPhone right away without much hassle. More details can be found right after the jump.
With more than a few companies vying to become the de facto standard for instant messaging and VoIP calling on mobile, WhatsApp arguably has the messaging part sewn up, especially in Europe. But lately, the company has submerged its feet in the voice calling arena, with Android users being the first one to receive said feature.
Amazon may have its own app store and even its own smartphone and a bunch of tablets, but that apparently isn’t enough for the company that already accounts for a huge percentage of our online purchases via Amazon Prime. According to a new report based on leaked documents, Amazon is also working to bring its Amazon Prime business model to the digital world.
The story goes that Amazon is working on a subscription service that would see people able to pay a fee to receive a range of apps and associated in-app purchases free of any additional charge. The service would be similar to the Amazon Prime subscription service that gives customers access to online video streaming and expedited shipping on products. This new Amazon ‘Unlocked’ subscription would apply to Android apps instead, though.
Want to downgrade iOS 8.2 back to more stable iOS 8.1.3? The following step by step tutorial will help you do just that on iPhone or iPad.
iOS 8.2, the latest edition of Apple’s mobile software, has brought forth quite a few new features, but unfortunately, also includes its fair share of bugs. If you’ve been using the latest firmware and encountered issues relating to battery, Safari and whatnot, there’s some light at the end of the tunnel, because since Apple is still signing iOS 8.1.3, you can downgrade with relative ease. Find out how, after the break.
The first think to note about this downgrade is that it won’t allow you to achieve a jailbreak of any kind. Like iOS 8.2, iOS 8.1.3 is not yet jailbreakable, and thus, by reverting to iOS 8.1.3, you are doing so mainly to avoid the performance issues associated with iOS 8.2.
So if you are still on IOS 8.1.2 and below, DO NOT update to iOS 8.2 or iOS 8.1.3. This guide is useful for only those who have updated to iOS 8.2 and want to downgrade back to more stable iOS 8.1.3.
The passcode lock is a key security measure protecting the personal and security-related data of iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users far and wide. But recently, it emerged that a hardware-based hack in the form of a little black box could bypass this measure on iOS 8.1 and below, including non-jailbroken devices, using a brute-force tactic, and following on from that, one developer has created a software based utility now that can do likewise without the need for additional hardware, but it works on jailbroken devices only.
After the black box attack revealed last week, which essentially bypasses the limit on passcode retries, Majd Alfhaily has come up with TransLock, a tool that uses the same tactic but is purely software-based. Since a jailbreak offers very few limits on what kinds of code can be executed, TransLock overrides the retry limit, and can punch in a new passcode attempt every five seconds.
It seems that Apple could be releasing a refreshed wireless keyboard very soon, as an updated model with backlit keys has just been spotted on the online Apple Store for the Czech Republic. Read on for more information on this intriguing piece of development.
The last time Apple updated its wireless keyboard for Mac was back in 2011, and that simply included an addition / update of keys to stay relevant to the new OS X features that the company had introduced, such as Launchpad and Mission Control. But, by large, the keyboard has remained the same since being introduced and bundled alongside the new iMacs in 2009.
