iPhone 4 dual-SIM case makes network hopping easy

Chris Davies, Aug 27th 2010 Discuss [2]

The iPhone 4 can do plenty, even play nicely on other GSM networks when you've unlocked it with ultrasn0w, but up until now you couldn't put two SIM cards inside it. USBfever's new iPhone 4 Dual SIM Adapter Case doesn't quite change that - the two SIMs in question aren't exactly within the iPhone - but it does allow you to easily flip between cards without reaching for the Liquidmetal tool.

iPhone 3G iOS 4 fix “coming soon” says purported Jobs email

Chris Davies, Aug 23rd 2010 Discuss [1]

We've learnt to be pretty skeptical about emails purported to be from Steve Jobs, but the prospect of an imminent fix for iPhone 3G owners with slow, glitchy and downright frustrating handsets after updating to iOS 4 is too good to be true. Having heard that Apple were investigating the reports, a Mac Rumors reader emailed the CEO to ask if an official downgrade option was really in the works; according to Jobs' reply, there's a "software update coming soon."

Chris Davies, Aug 1st 2010 Discuss [2]

Jailbreaking your iOS device may be officially permitted under the DMCA, but that presumes there's a jailbreak out there to run. Happily, anyone with an iOS 3.1.2, 3.1.3, 4.0, 4.0.1 or iPad 3.2.1 device now has a super-straightforward way to jailbreak, thanks to comex's new JailBreakMe site. Read The Full Story

iPhone 4 antenna drops signal 90% on contact versus 25% of rivals claim German testers

Chris Davies, Jul 24th 2010 Discuss [3]

Once you start talking about scientific testing, you can't really be too surprised when other scientists step in and try to replicate your results. Apple has been steadily working through their smartphone rivals, showing how grip-issues plague all antennas rather than solely that of the iPhone 4 (most recently the Motorola DROID X and Nokia N97 mini, and now independent German consumer organization Stiftung Warentest has stepped in to take a look themselves. Roughly the German equivalent of Consumer Reports, Stiftung Warentest claim that in their testing the iPhone 4 signal dropped by up to 90-percent when touched in the lower left-hand corner, whereas rivals saw significantly less of a change when their antenna was touched.

iPhone signal tweaks compared; iOS 4.0.1 quietly fixes Exchange support too

Chris Davies, Jul 16th 2010 Discuss [0]

We love a good colored diagram here at SlashGear, and so this comparison chart showing just how Apple has changed iPhone signal strength bar mapping in their latest iOS 4.0.1 update is tickling us nicely. The handiwork of AnandTech reader Mike Escoffery, it shows the considerable margin by which Apple emphasized a "full bars" signal. Meanwhile, while there was no mention of it in the iTunes release notes, iOS 4.0.1 also addresses Exchange ActiveSync problems. Read The Full Story

iOS 4.0.1 released to fix iPhone 4, 3GS and 3G signal meter

Chris Davies, Jul 15th 2010 Discuss [5]

Apple's promised iOS4 update has been pushed out for the iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS and iPhone 3G. iOS 4.0.1 apparently "improves the formula to determine how many bars of signal strength to display," after Apple discovered they had been using the wrong calculations. Previewed earlier today in the iOS4.1 developer beta, the update is expected to make the iPhone's signal meter more accurate, but not address the hardware issue experienced by iPhone 4 owners where holding the smartphone in a certain way can significantly impair antenna performance.

Chris Davies, Jul 9th 2010 Discuss [1]

iPhone OS 4.0 Has Three Variations Floating Around

Evan Selleck, Apr 5th 2010 Discuss [0]

So, Apple is announcing iPhone OS 4.0 come this Thursday (stay tuned, because we'll be there live blogging the event), and by now the speculation about what, exactly, the software will do is fully ramped up. Sure, it's been going for awhile now, but with the announcement literally only days away, it's going to fly off the handle. (Of course, be sure to let us know what you think it will bring to the table.) And honestly, this won't help matters at all. Looks like there are some different variations of the iPhone OS 4.0 already moving around Cupertino. Read The Full Story
