The iPhone 5 Has A Touch Screen Glitch, OOPS!

The iPhone 5 has a larger screen than it other predecessors so it may seem obvious that the new iPhone 5 would have problems considering this is Apples first time with such a big iPhone.Like maybe swiping diagonally may cause the screen to glitch, who new. This problem may make it very hard for app developers to create new apps for the iPhone 5 like "Fruit Ninja". There are two things that it could be.A hardware problem, which would mean Apple would have to make a new iPhone to fix the problem. Or a software problem which they could just update the software.But this video makes it look like a hardware problem which is not good for Apple.

iOS 6.0.1 Update Brings iPhone 4S Battery Issues

Note: This doesn't affect all iPhone 4S devices.

The iPhone 4S was is considered one of the best smart phones ever made, but it seems to have always had trouble with battery life.When the 4S was first made its problems had started it had battery issues up until iOS 5.1.1 which fixed the battery life. Then Apple made iOS 6 which gave the iPhone 4S Wi-Fi issues, so Apple fixed the Wi-Fi issues with iOS 6.0.1 and now the 4S has battery life issues again. That may be why Apple has already released iOS 6.1 beta but we will just have to see when they finally fix the battery life in the ground breaking iPhone 4S.

Tweaks Of The Week 11/9/2012

The tweaks this week are...
-CleanActivity
-ForceStatusBar
-NowNow
-RemoveBadges


-Clean Activity

     Clean Activity allows you to change your options in the iOS 6 sharing menu. Its a pretty straight forward tweak its really cool. I do wish that the creator would make more custom options to put into the sharing menu.To install this you must be running iOS 6 or iOS 6.0.1.




-ForceStatusBar

     ForceStatusBar lets you have the status bar showing on full screen applications. Its cool how you can choose which apps have the status bar forced on to it. Also the app interface isn't compressed to fit the status bar is laid on top of the app interface so the screen fits better.

-NowNow

     NowNow basically lets you use the Google Search app voice assistant like Siri which I know sounds lame but it is actually really handy.You just set the voice assistant to an activation and boom!
Full article here.


-RemoveBadges

     Tired of badges well you can now get rid of them with an Activator method with "RemoveBadges". This is a great and handy tweak. It has very simple setting you just choose your activation method, then make your white list (the apps that wont get the badges taken away from them)

Apple Now Has A Patent For A Round Rectangle


The '286 patent awarded on Tuesday appears to give Apple the exact patent the Samsung and Apple critics have erroneously claimed that the '889 patent was. The patent includes a number of drawings of the original iPad design, with most of its uniquely identifying features in dashed lines. As stated in the patent description, "broken lines in the Figures show portions of the portable display device which form no part of the claimed design."

The only unbroken line in all the figures is the outline of the flat, rounded rectangular front face of the device. All the other identifiable features, such as the speaker grille, round home button, display size, Dock connector, or even its curved back, are not covered by this design patent.
