  • How To Downgrade From iOS 5 To iOS 4.X Guide


    Well you had to do it didn’t you. You just had to taste that infamous iOS 5 beta and now you have been cast from many stuff you used to in the previous version, don’t worry! We are here to help bring you back from the abyss!

    Prerequisites:

    1. The IPSW of choice (I would recommend 4.3.3) as no need to roll back further. Just make sure you have your SHSH stored with Cydia if you choose to go older then 4.3.3).
    2. TinyUmbrella. Just download the version that will work for your system.
    3. iTunes 10.5 beta. You should have this already as you needed it to install 5.0 beta

    How To Downgrade From iOS 5 To iOS 4.X Guide:

    1. Open iTunes
    2. Plug in your device
    3. Enter DFU mode
      • Turn device off
      • Hold power button for 3 seconds
      • Without releasing power button, hold down home button for 10 seconds
      • Release power button, but continue to hold the home button until iTunes recognizes your iPhone in recovery mode. If you did it right, it should just have a black screen with no connect to iTunes logo.
    4. Hold down the option key / shift on windows and click the restore button in iTunes
    5. Browse to wherever you have your IPSW saved and select it.
    6. iTunes will give you some warning, just click the flashing ok button.
    7. Sit back while your computer is working.
    8. If you are using an iPhone 4, you should be done. If not, you have received some sort of error more then likely. This is normal. Open TinyUmbrella and click the exit from restore button.
    9. YOUR DONE!!!

    Note:

    if you have changed your host file for cydia, you have to change it back to use this guide. TinyUmbrella will do this for you in the advanced tab.

  • Facebook for iPad App Coming Soon


    Facebook is about to release an official iPad app, according to the NYT. Facebook has been working on it for approximately the past year and is closing up their testing ahead of a launch in the “coming weeks.” The Facebook for iPad is said to be “carefully designed and optimized for the tablet” and will be totally free:

    People who have seen the application said it has a slick design that has been tailored for the iPad and its touchscreen interface. Facebook developers and designers have also overhauled the Facebook Chat and Facebook Groups features for the application. And the app will go beyond the features available on the Facebook Web site by allowing users to shoot and upload photos and videos directly from the iPad’s built-in cameras.

    “The photo and video experience is amazing, offering full resolution and full-screen images,” said a person who has seen the app.

    Facebook for iPad is said to include everything from the Facebook website but will add mobile-optimized features like taking and uploading pics directly from iPad’s built-in cameras.

  • Nexus 4G Leaked: Dual-Core 1.5Ghz CPU, 1GB RAM, 720p Display, Android 4.0 and 4G LTE



    BGR provided some exclusive details about Google’s upcoming successor to the Nexus S smartphone, Nexus 4G. The device will run on fourth-generation networks based on Long-Term Evolution radio technology, it will have a native 720p display and will run a yet unreleased Android 4.0 version:

    We have been told that the Google Nexus 4G will feature a next-generation dual-core 1.2GHz or 1.5GHz CPU, and contrary to reports about it featuring an NVIDIA Kal-El processor, our source indicates it’s most likely an OMAP 4460 or a, ultra low-power 28nm Krait-based Snapdragon. The display is said to be a 720p HD “monster-sized” screen, and it won’t feature physical Android menu buttons below the screen anymore – everything will be software-based.

    You can expect a slim package containing – in addition to the above – a 4G LTE radio, a one-megapixel front camera for video calls and a five-megapixel camera on the back for taking stills and capturing full HD (1080p) video. A word about the back camera: “The 5-megapixel camera, however, is said to be an advanced 5-megapixel sensor delivering class-leading image quality in addition to superior low-light performance” When, you ask? Around Thanksgiving, if Boy Genius Reports’ sources are anything to go by.
