We love our Windows readers and viewers, and to prove it we've created a video tutorial that shows you how to downgrade an iPhone 4S or iPad 2 using RedSn0w 0.9.11b1 on Windows.
The process is basically the same as what we showed you with the Mac version of RedSn0w, but this time around we downgraded an iPhone 4S instead of an iPad 2. The iPad 2, iPhone 4S and the New iPad — all being A5 devices — can be downgraded using this method....
And the good news just keeps rolling in... hot of the heels of pod2g's new iPad (iPad 3) untethered jailbreak video, he's now confirming that his jailbreak works with Apple's newly released iOS 5.1.1 firmware as well.
This means that anyone who buys a new iPad, iPhone 4S, or iPad 2 with 5.1.1 pre-installed, or anyone who accidentally updated to iOS 5.1.1 without saving their SHSH blobs will still be able to jailbreak once the tool is released...
It's finally here folks, the official downgrade tool for A5 devices!
Indeed, you can now downgrade your iPhone 4S, iPad 2, or new iPad (iPad 3) with the latest version of RedSn0w 0.9.11b1. Downgrading will allow you to perform an untethered jailbreak on your iPhone 4S, or iPad 2 running iOS 5.0.1 firmware.
Check out our tutorial for the step-by-step downgrade instructions inside...
Awesome news for those who accidentally updated the firmware for their A5 device (iPhone 4S, iPad 2, and the new iPad aka iPad 3), possibly resulting in the loss of the precious untethered jailbreak. MuscleNerd has announced that an upcoming update to RedSn0w will allow users to downgrade their firmware.
The only catch is that you have to have your SHSH blobs saved for the firmware that you wish to downgrade to. That means that if you purchased your iPhone 4S with iOS 5.1 pre-installed, there's no way to downgrade to iOS 5.0.1 so that you can enjoy the benefits of pod2g's untethered jailbreak...
While purchasing a new iPad (third-generation) will still cost you a minimum $499, Apple is doing everything it can to make its tablets more affordable.
Earlier this year it announced that it would be lowering the price of the iPad 2 to $399, and now it's slashing the prices of its factory refurbished models...
A few moments ago, Apple started pushing out iOS 5.1.1 to compatible devices. The update doesn't appear to bring any new features, but it does include a handful of bug fixes and other improvements.
While we've already confirmed that A4 devices running the new firmware can be jailbroken, that doesn't mean you should update. In fact, those of you with with an A5(X) device should steer clear of it...
When Apple announced that it was going to continue selling the iPad 2 for $399 alongside its new tablet, the company never mentioned any changes. After all, it's the same iPad 2 that it's been selling for more than a year. Right?
Not exactly. The folks over at AnandTech uncovered a minor, but perhaps significant, change in the discounted tablet's A5 processor that gives the slate nearly two hours of added battery life. Keep reading to find out how...
Still trying to figure out what to get your mom for Mother's Day? Well you could always opt for the traditional bouquet of flowers. But a recent survey shows that it's not blossoms moms are after — it's iPads.
Techbargains, a bargain-hunting site that points users to the best deals on consumer electronics, recently polled a number of female users on what they'd most like to receive for the upcoming holiday...
A new $9.99 jailbreak tweak was released for the iPad today on Cydia, and it goes by the name of Quasar.
Quasar is a tweak that's exclusive to jailbroken iPad's, and it allows you to have a true window based multitasking session with your iPad.
As you know we've been fairly adamant about a true multitasking solution for the iPad for quite some time now, so we're excited to see what Quasar can do for iPad users.
Full story and video walkthrough inside...
Nobody was surprised when Apple announced that it was going to continue selling its one-year old iPad 2 at a discount alongside its new tablet last month. After all, the Cupertino company pulled the same thing with the iPhone 4 and 4S.
Considering that Apple has sold more than 70 million iPhones over the past two quarters, it's safe to say that keeping the older iPhone around is paying off in spades. And it looks like keeping the iPad 2 around will yield similar results...
This isn't exactly what I envisioned when I created a concept for MultiLayer iPad app functionality a few weeks ago, but it's certainly a start.
After speaking at length with iOS developer Kyle Howells — the brains behind the awesome jailbreak tweak CardSwitcher — he graciously agreed to compile a specialized version of said tweak, which allows users to interface with multiple iPad apps on the same screen.
This means that it's entirely feasible to play games while watching your Twitter timeline, or check your stock prices while browsing the web via Safari — all from the same iPad.
Running multiple apps on-screen simultaneously has been a dream of many iPad owners. We've seen similar concepts from Kyle in the past, so I'm confident that if anyone could pull this off, it would be him. Check inside for a demonstration video of the concept tweak in action...
If there's one thing that the iPad accessory space isn't short on, it's keyboard cases. There are a number of them available from several top-notch manufacturers including Zagg, Logitech, and Kensington. But that doesn't mean there isn't room for one more.
Meet the Brydge, an aluminum bluetooth keyboard case for your second generation or third generation iPad. Made from the "highest quality materials," the accessory makes your tablet look (and function) an awful lot like a MacBook Air...
