How To Bypass iOS 6.1 Lock screen Passcode via Security Flaw – Video

The time has come for the history to repeat again after years. This time the history is repeating in the most advanced iOS ever that is iOS 6’s latest update of iOS 6.1. Apple fixing minor bugs and making some improvements to SIRI recently released the update of iOS 6.1. While making these changes and adding new features, Apple might not have looked into a mysterious security hole that was founded by jailbreaknation. The security hole founded by jailbreaknation is the same loophole that existed in iOS 4.2.1 and at that time it was patched by iOS 4.3 update.

Unluckily, the same loophole is back in iOS 6.1 with a new technique. This time the method to by-pass the lock code is a bit difficult because it requires some time and patience in order to accomplish the goal. The method is different from the preceding loop hole one’s, but the starting of the procedure to access into the iPhone is the same that is “Emergency Call” method. As noted by Jailbreaknation, the method works on iPhone only and not on iPad or iPod, they are safe from this loop hole.

How To Bypass iOS 6.1 Lock screen Passcode via Security Flaw

Now comes the turn of the method that was posted by Jailbreak nation on how to by pass the pass code screen on an iPhone to view the images and do some mess with the address book on an iPhone of a user. The steps are as follows:

1. Lock device

2. Slide to unlock

3. Tap emergency call

4. Hold sleep button until the power down prompt shows. Click cancel, you will notice the status bar turn blue. Type in 911 or your emergency number and click call then cancel it asap so the call dosen’t go through.

5. Lock your device with the sleep button then turn it on using the home button.

6. Slide to unlock then hold the sleep button and in 3 seconds tap emergency call. This will spazz out the phone and cause it to open.

[Make sure to continuously hold the sleep button until you are done looking in the phone]

Apple iWatch is Work in Progress by an Emerging Team of 100 Designers

The rumor mill has started to make some progress after a long pause regarding Apple Products. We can say that Apple’s rumor mill has started its operation again after a brief shutdown of rumors related to alleged Apple iWatch. The name “iWatch” might sound familiar because we reported about the alleged release date of Apple iWatch back in first week of January. At that time the name and specs leaked seemed to be an imagination because a Watch powered by Apple didn’t made any sense. If it were regarding phone or tablet, we would have considered it as semi-confirmed name or news.

But the alleged specs leaked were related to an iWatch by Apple to be launched somewhere in 2013. When we first heard the name of iWatch, many people might have ignored it or they might have taken the name in laugh. However, as of now the time has come to take back the words or the laughs that people made over the name of iWatch because affirm sources have started to point out towards the production of Apple iWatch. Following the footsteps of NYT, WSJ emphasized on the name and production of iWatch by Apple this past week.

Therefore, don’t expect the rumors regarding iWatch to end quickly because Bloomberg, another affirm source related Apple came up with a new news stating that Apple had 100 Watch Designers working on the iWatch project and the number of designers is growing.

Apple Inc. has a team of about 100 product designers working on a wristwatch-like device that may perform some of the tasks now handled by the iPhone and iPad, two people familiar with the company’s plans said.

The team, which has grown in the past year, includes managers, members of the marketing group, and software and hardware engineers who previously worked on the iPhone and iPad, said the people, who asked not to be named because the plans are private. The team’s size suggests Apple is beyond the experimentation phase in its development, said the people.

According to the report, Apple has hired over 100 designers to work on a new project of wristwatch currently rumored to be called iWatch. The main aim of the wristwatch will be to function like iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad. This means that Apple is planning to integrate iOS in a wristwatch most probably called an iWatch. The report also affirms the project of this wristwatch is private and not to be named, but living in the world of rumors along with latest technology, nothing is stays secret from users.

“The thing that gets planned leaks for the World.”

The above statement clearly defines the rule of Apple on which the tech giant is working.

In the end, all we can say is that “Its time to change the time Apple’s way.” Get ready.

Do share your thought about this iWatch in the comments section below.

Following the public release of iOS 6.1.1 (10B145) by Apple few hours back, the happiness of Untethered Jailbreak by Evasi0n was ended for few hours. It was assumed that Apple might have patched the Exploit for the iPhone 4S users in recently released iOS 6.1.1 and they might have to stay away from this recent update. If they have to stay away from the update, then the users wont are able to fix the issues that they were facing on iOS 6.1 running on iPhone 4S. Now, this was a complicated situation because no one wanted to update because of the Untethered Jailbreak by Evasi0n for iOS 6.1.1 arrived after a long time and the users wanted to fix the issues as well without updating.

Apple released 6.1.1 for the 4S only today. The JB still works fine. We will release an updated evasi0n that recognizes it as supported.

Download iOS 6.1.1 for iPhone 4S to Fix Cellular Issues and Minor Bugs

Earlier today, Apple released a new version of iOS 6.1.1 for the iPhone 4S users only to fix the issue with cellular networks and some minor issues in the iPhone 4S caused by the preceding build of iOS 6.1 that was released few days back. The bugs reported by some cellular networks on the iPhone 4S were of poor connectivity on 3G networks, battery life problems, and few minor issues that were faced by people who updated to iOS 6.1 recently.

The update of iOS 6.1.1 for the iPhone 4S comes via O.T.A and people can download this update manually. The size of the update from O.T.A is 23MB; where as the size from manual download is 928MB. We would recommend our readers to restore to iOS 6.1 and then do an O.T.A update rather than downloading the whole bundle of 928MB again.

Download iOS 6.1.1 (10B145) from here.

Do remember that this is an ordinary update and not a major update of iOS 6.1.1 that is in works. Recently Apple release iOS 6.1.1 Beta 1 to fix Maps for Japan and several other issues, therefore, the build number of iOS 6.1.1 would be different from of this one. We can name this build of iOS 6.1.1 as RevA Build for iPhone 4S.

Bluetooth Tweak AirBlue Sharing Updated for iOS 6 – Download
In preceding WWDC 12, Apple announced the most advanced iOS called iOS 6 in the entire history with the support of Bluetooth missing in it as well. The support for Bluetooth in iDevices has been missing since they were launched. We haven’t heard in our entire life that Apple has included the support of Bluetooth in their iOS x.x.x to make it work with other Devices other than iPhone/iPod/iPad. Somehow, in iOS 6 Apple showed an icon of Bluetooth Sharing that is of no use. It might be made for fun or to fool people around that they are working on the ability to make Bluetooth compatible.

The latent demand of Bluetooth in iPhone/iPod/iPad was fulfilled by a team of iOS Cydia Tweak Developers called Cocoanut, who announced the first Bluetooth Tweak that used to work on iPhone/iPod/iPad running iOS 4.3+. Following the footsteps of Cocoanuts, Eric Day with his team members announced a new teak called AirBlue Sharing. This tweak was an alternative to Celeste, the Bluetooth Sharing Tweak that actually worked on iOS 5. This Tweak of AirBlue Sharing is 50% less than the price of Celeste that hasn’t been updated since long due to some unknown factors.

However, later today the Tweak of AirBlue Sharing was updated with the tremendous support of iOS 6.x.x. This means the Bluetooth Tweak AirBlue Sharing is fully compatible with iOS 6 running on iPhone/iPod/iPad.

As of now, AirBlue Sharing is the sole Jailbreak Tweak that allows you to use the functionality of using Bluetooth at full. In past, it was Celeste and now it is AirBlue Sharing. For the time being AirBlue Sharing would be playing Monopoly in Cydia Market because it was updated with the support of iOS 6 and Celeste isn’t updated for further support.

Following are the functions of this awesome Tweak with the updated version:
- For operation of AirBlue Sharing does not require any configuration;
- The connection between the two devices is automatic;
- Bluetooth is deactivated automatically after finishing the send operation;
- The transfer rate reaches (under optimal conditions) 1.7MB / s;
- In addition to Bluetooth, the transmission of data between devices is also possible via WiFi network (faster);
- With AirBlue Sharing is also possible to create a WiFi hotspot when it is not available (only for iOS);
- The tweak allows you to send photos, videos, music, contacts, notes, voice memos and even more;
- Received files can be opened in applications compatible clicking on “Open in …”;
- The images received or contacts can be imported directly into applications Pictures and Contacts;
- Alternatively, the received files can also be imported into applications that support it (“Open in …”);
- Tweak supports sending and receiving files simultaneously;
- Notifications are required and sound effects to alert the user of the status of the transaction;
- The tweak is compatible with Mac OS X, Windows, Linux, iOS, Nokia, Blackberry, Android and all other terminals with Bluetooth connectivity.
Other than these functions, the Tweak is fully optimized for the iPhone 5, so people can take full advantage of a bigger screen while sending and receiving files from peers or computers.

You can download AirBlue Sharing from Cydia Store for $4.99 that is 50% less than the cost of Celeste Bluetooth sharing. In order to accomplish the goal of downloading, you need to be Jailbroken on your iPhone/iPod/iPad and to do that you need to follow our guide present here.
