Apple has rolled out the iOS 7 Beta 5 in just 6 days after iOS 7 Beta 4 release. This was a quite fast roll out made by Apple. Usually Apple rolls out a new Beta version after two weeks, but this time Apple rolled out the iOS 7 Beta 5 in just six days, where as iOS 7 Beta 4 took three weeks to appear due to downtime of the Dev-Center. Apple is still working on to fix the Dev-Center because it was breached by a security researcher few weeks back, that made Apple, take down the Dev-Center. It is believed that Apple will revive the Dev-Center at full within this week.

What’s New in iOS 7 Beta 4 – Change Log

Apple released iOS 7 Beta 4 the day before and this iOS 7 Beta was worth waiting for. This new version of iOS 7 Beta 4 brought some new changes to UI and some new features were added to the list. Other than the addition of features, a number or bugs were fixed, stability improvements were made, and few more things were done in this iOS 7 Beta version. After the developers got the fourth beta of iOS 7, they directly assumed the possibility of two new Betas to arrive before official iOS 7 release this fall.

This means that iOS 7 Beta 4 is stable enough to be worked on and only two more betas are to be released prior to official launch by Apple this September. Lets not jump to the final release so early because two more beta versions of iOS 7 are pending and Apple vowed to change the looks of iOS 7 until final release. Therefore, expect the unexpected in the final release of iOS 7 for iPhone/iPod Touch/ iPad.

However, Apple made some significant changes in iOS 7 Beta 4 that are prominent to every one who is running this Beta version. Those of you who are not on iOS 7 Beta version and are waiting for the official release can have a glance below of the changes made to fourth iOS 7 Beta version.

The changes made in iOS 7 Beta 4 are as follows:

Download iOS 7 Beta 4 Now and iOS 7 GM Build in September

Gearing up back from the down time of the Developer Center due to critical issue that led to hack a week ago, today Apple recovered few days back with a new system of showing the Dev portal services online or offline. Covering the recovery of the DEV portal, Apple today following the same tradition released iOS 7 Beta 4 for developers to continue its Beta testing until this fall. Before the official links of iOS 7 Beta 4 could be released, unofficial (semi-official) links from the dev portal were leaked in wild confirming the arrival of iOS 7 Beta 4 today.

The main down time caused by a hack due to a bug in dev-portal made Apple delay its iOS 7 Beta 4 that was scheduled for July 22, 2013 release. However, Apple had to recover from the down time by fixing the issue and to get back on the track for the iOS 7 Beta testing.

As of now, Apple is back on the track of releasing new Beta versions according its traditional releases of two weeks and sometimes it takes more time to release a new iOS Beta because of intensive testing. Moreover, in near future prior to official iOS 7 launch this fall; Apple will do some internal testing of the iOS 7 Beta versions to see if there is any bug left or not. The internal testers might an inside team of Apple developers or they can be the chosen ones or the ones who will register them selves for further internal testing with Apple.

Apple will seed them new build internally, only if Apple plans to take the beta testing to a whole new level.

Download iOS 7 GM Release Date:

As we know that Apple has reached to iOS 7 Beta 4 and the end of July is around in a day or two. After that we would be landing in fall, where we would be hearing a lot about iOS 7, the new iPhone 5S, and the low-cost iPhone Model. While we would be busy in reading about these things, we would be missing out the iOS 7 Beta release dates because every one would be keeping a strong eye on the Jailbreak and the final release date of iOS 7 public version.

These two things will follow each other in one after another position. Therefore, get ready to buckle up for this Fall 13.

Now coming back to the iOS 7 GM (Gold Master) release date predictions, a firm source believes with us that the final iOS 7 GM build would arrive after two more iOS 7 Beta versions that iOS 7 Beta 5 and iOS 7 Beta 6. After these two Beta versions, we would be seeing iOS 7 GM build in September.

Now this makes some sense because Apple releases a new Beta after two weeks and two betas would make a total of four weeks that is a whole month of August for just two iOS 7 Betas.

Soon after ending the season of iOS 7 Betas in August, Apple will release iOS 7 GM build some where in the first or second week of September prior to its media event on which the tech company will announce many new things. Out of those many new things, iOS 7 and OS X Mavericks would be two of them. Where as, a new iPhone model and a low-cost iPhone model remain in the list of pending things.

Until then you can proceed on to download iOS 7 Beta 4 for developers from Apple’s Dev Portal.

Samsung Galaxy S4 Explodes and Puts a House on Fire – Images

Samsung Galaxy S4 is making headlines from time to time these days on the Internet and on news channels. The reason behind making headlines on Media and the Internet is not that it is becoming famous or it’s outranking its competitors in competition. The main reason behind Galaxy S4 making headlines is the damages that are being caused by this newly released smart phone around the globe. In past three weeks, we have seen three different accidents caused by Galaxy S4 under the same issue including this damage as well.

We would like to say that this damage is the biggest damage cause by a smart phone in the history of cellphone innovation. Even Samsung’s biggest Rival, Apple’s iPhone didn’t make such huge damage in history. Samsung Galaxy S series, especially Galaxy S4 has made a new history in the case of causing damages.

Today a new user of Samsung Galaxy S4 residing in Hong Kong nearly escaped the fire that was caused by its Galaxy S4 while he was using it on a sofa. The fire started to erupt from the smartphone due to which the person threw away the Galaxy S4 on sofa that further lead to prominent fire. After the sofa caught fire, the whole house was burned down due intensive fire spreading from place to place.samsung_galaxy_s4_fire_hong_kong

The survivor of the case further told the authorities that he didn’t bought the Chinese version of the Galaxy S4, indeed he bought the original version of Galaxy S4 from an authorized retailer.

This is not the first time for a Samsung Galaxy S4 and S series to explode. Recently we reported a newly bought Samsung Galaxy S4 in Gulf set on fire while it was on charge.

Viber Shocks, SEA Rocks – Viber App Store Description Hacked

A week ago, Viber’s support page was hacked and defaced by S.E.A (Syrian Electronic Army) and today the Apple App Store Description page of Viber was hacked by the same SEA team. After SEA team hacked the Viber App Store description page in Apple Store, they only changed the description of the App and nothing else was done. The SEA team only changed the description of Viber App page to showcase a message that they did earlier in the Support page by defacing it.

However, the message conveyed by the SEA Team in today’s hack was minor different from the previous hack that was made at the support page. The message left by SEA Team was:

“We Created this App to spy on you, PLEASE DOWNLOAD IT.

viber_app_store_hacked

Few hours after the hack was done in the Viber App Store Description page, Viber reverted it to original state. To return a hacked description and support page in original state is not the issue and can be done moments after the hack was attempted.

The main that needs to be known is the data safe of the users during these attacks or is it safe to use such Application that is being hacked twice in two weeks? Aren’t we putting our safety on risk?

Downgrade iOS 6.1.3 to iOS 6.0.x Honeymoon Period is Over

Last night when every one stuck on iOS 6.1.3 was sleeping, Apple was accidentally signing iOS 6.0.x Versions. we were about to sign off from the work place, but we saw a tweet of ih8sn0w on twitter guiding to fire up iFaith to save iOS 6.0.x SHSH blobs because Apple is singing those iOS Versions accidentally or there must be some issue with the server that has opened the window of restoration from iOS 6.1.3 to iOS 6.0.x.

Those of you who were awake or had morning time at their end; they were lucky enough to downgrade iOS 6.1.3 to iOS 6.0.x version. Those of you, who were sleeping, lost the opportunity of downgrading the iPhone/iPod Touch/iPad from iOS 6.1.3 to iOS 6.0.x. This sort of opportunity comes once in a blue moon by Apple or not in entire lifetime. We would name this opportunity as a Golden Opportunity because it is the first time in history that Apple started to sign iOS 6.0.x Firmwares for a limited time.

apple_honey_moon

The time period of iOS signing was very limited. We think it was about an hour or three until Apple allowed the people to downgrade their devices and Jailbreak them on a previous iOS version.

However, Apple server team might be on a short holiday because the issue has been fixed and Apple is no longer signing iOS 6.0.x IPSW files. Therefore, there is no chance of downgrading back to iOS 6.0.x from iOS 6.1.3.
