Hakeri žele Linux na iPhoneu

Steve to nikada neće odobriti


Hakeri uporno pokušavaju natjerati iPhone da boota sa Linux 2.6 kernelom.

Prvi uspješan kernel porting je napravljen na Linuxu na iPhone blogu, uz instrukcije i source kod, ali još uvijek nije u potpunosti gotov. Loadovani bootloader, kernel i Busybox terminal ne mogu pokrenuti većinu iPhone osobina. Touchscreen, zvuk, akcelerometar i networking ne rade.

Također se morate konektovati na zvijer preko USB interfejsa sa drugog aparata. Ipak, čini se da su hakeri sve bliže ostvarenju ovog plana. Jedna stvar koju Steve Jobs ne razumije je da ako bude previše uspješan, uvijek će se naći ljudi koji će željeti da njegovi proizvodi rade onako kao oni to žele, a ne kako je to on zamislio.

FaceCall is useful speed dialer app for the iPhone

If you can make shortcuts out of web sites on your iPhone, why not allow the same feature for contacts? That’s exactly the point of the new app called FaceCall, which allows you to put faces of your contacts as icons on iPhone’s home screen(s). As a result, you can have your top contacts on the iPhone screen to dial them with a single tap.

Very useful, though, there is a single downside. Let’s say one of your top contacts which you want on the homescreen has multiple phone numbers. Once you set it for fast dial, there’s no indication on the screen which phone number you’re dialing — whether it’s home, mobile or work - it’s up to you to remember which phone number have you picked for each contact.

There’s also one other issue — not a problem, though. FaceCall uses Safari to make icons on the homescreen so it could access Wuonm’s server infrastructure (Wuonm is the developer behind the application), potentially exposing your personal information to the third party. I wouldn’t worry much about this, but I needed to inform you, nonetheless.

DeskClock from Chilli X Makes App Store Debut



he developers over at Chilli X have just released their third app for the iPhone and iPod Touch. Called ‘DeskClock’, the app is an uber-simple clock/date/calendar all wrapped into one simple screen. DeskClock displays the current time, date and month in an easy-to-read format, ideal if you’re in need of a good looking clock on your desk. You can choose from a 12 or 24 hour time display, and change up the color scheme as well.

The app overrides the auto-lock setting, so your iPhone will not go to sleep on you. If you want your iPhone to start going back to sleep… Simple exit the app and you’re back to normal. I would have to think this is perfect for those times when you have your iPhone charging next to your computer.

I like the looks of this app… simple and nicely designed. I actually don’t have a clock on my desk in the office, so heck… might be worth a spin. Not convinced that the $0.99 price tag is correct… this one has the markings of a typical free app. However, I could very well be wrong. After poking around the reviews thus far in the App Store… This one has been getting nothing but good reviews.

iPhone 2.2 OS reportedly locking Apple-unlocked iPhone 3Gs



Aside from SIM piggy-back unlock solutions, the only other way to let your iPhone 3G roam free on any GSM network is to buy an officially Apple-unlocked iPhone 3G in places like Hong Kong and parts of Europe. Unfortunately for those customers that shelled out the big bucks to get their hands on an unlocked iPhone 3G, there are reports that updating to the iPhone 2.2 OS can cause the handset to become locked.

Apparently, if an iPhone 3G is bought legally unlocked and then updated in another country, then officially-unlocked handset may become locked. iPhone Atlas cites user-reports from Apple’s support forums:

“Bought legally unlocked iPhone in Hong Kong. Updated to 2.2 in Germany. No my iPhone seems to be locked.”

“I bought my iPhone 3G legally unlocked from HK, and I just upgraded to iPhone 2.2, but it seems my phone is locked now. On the phone it says emergency calls only and iTunes is saying not supported SIM.”

It’s likely safe to assume that the majority of unlocked iPhone 3G owners out there have already updated to the iPhone 2.2 OS without any problems. But, if you’ve found that your unlocked iPhone 3G is no longer playing nice with your GSM network, it might be that iPhone 2.2 OS update.
