Apple has seeded iTunes 9.2 beta, along with iOS 4 GM (pre-release) for iPhone 3GS, 3G and iPod touch via Apple Developer Connection. This release is strictly for testing purposes and is currently available for Mac OS X only.
Safari 5 surprising didn't get any demo or mention at Jobs’ WWDC 2010 keynote but Apple PR has just released full “Press Release”, detailing the new Safari 5. This new version of Safari packs tons of new features including support for extensions, Microsoft Bing as a choice of search engine, improved HTML5 support, 30 percent performance increase over Safari 4, Safari Reader and more.
Remember that scoop on American Beauty director Sam Mendes directing commercial for Apple iPhone 4? Well that rumor was true after all. Apple today at WWDC 10 showed off the new iPhone 4 with iOS 4 commercial which features video calling via iChat, along with 3.5’’ OLED screen, 960x640 pixel screen resolution, 5 megapixel camera with Xenon flash and lots more.
Apple today has finally released the very final version of iPhone OS 4 (now renamed to iOS 4.0), along with SDK for iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS and iPod touch 2G/3G. Members enrolled in the iPhone Developer Standard or Enterprise program can access the bits right now, while the public will get it via the latest version of iTunes soon.
We have already seen iOS 4.0 Beta 4 (formerly iPhone OS 4) being successfully jailbroken and unlocked on iPhone 3GS and 3G using ultrasn0w and blacksn0w. But for this final release of iOS 4, both the tools are likely going to get an upgrade soon to make them full compatible. The iPhone Dev Team has already promised a full carrier unlocking solution sometime this month for 05.12.01 baseband. Geohot might also update blacksn0w unlock for this latest firmware, which has already been successfully ported to the Beta 4 of iOS 4.
Since Apple has renamed iPhone OS 4 to iOS 4, we thought we will update our jailbreaking guide for iOS 4.0 for both iPhone 3G and iPhone 3GS. The redsn0w 0.9.5b4 which was released for iPhone OS 4 Beta 4 (now iOS 4) will need an update to work with this version of iOS 4. But the instructions to jailbreak would remain the same. We will let you know as soon as an update is available.
Apples CEO Steve Jobs is all set to kick off his WWDC 10 keynote address in about an hour from now at San Francisco’s Moscone Center. The conference will mainly focus on iPhone development, iPhone OS 4, and the unveiling of the 4th-gen iPhone. Final version of OS X 10.6.4, Cloud based iTunes.com, Mac Mini, MacBook Air, Mac Pro refresh, iPad OS 3.3 / 3.2.1, Safari 5 and free version of MobileMe are some of the other things that we expect Apple to announce at the event.
This is a friendly reminder for all iPhone 3GS, iPad and iPod touch 3G users to save SHSH blobs now before Apple pushes the new iPad 3.3/3.2.1 and iPhone OS 4 firmware today at WWDC 10. This is important if you want to jailbreak (by downgrading) your device again should Apple patches the exploit used by Spirit jailbreak tool.
Yes you read that right! The Italian site iDroid has managed to port the latest Android 2.2 OS (aka Froyo) to iPhone 3G. This port is based on the same iBoot method which was originally released for both iPhone 2G and 3G with Android 1.6.
We have been hearing about this one aren't we? but what we have now is final confirmation. According to the member of iPhone Dev Team, full carrier unlocks for iPhone OS 3.1.3, and iPhone OS 4.0 will be released this month once Apple has released both the final version of iPhone OS 4, and the next iPhone 4G / HD.
