Apple's entering wider Purgatory' : iPhone 5S to blend-in multiple screens!

(Credit: Brightsideofnews.com)
Commentary:- July is drawing nearer & the long waited days of apple's showcasing it's pride is somewhat revealing ecstasy among it's products fanatics. The company has for the first time patched vibrant news about the next generation of it's device stating multiple screens to break the notion culture seen to be locked on a single line of production & expertise. citing critical information from a known tech-supply chain company based in California, the company has further laid speculation of the incoming iPhone 5S cut-off price to greatly benefit developing markets like china. Spinning the mouse ball down the website, the company further reveals the choice of multiples screen sizes that consumers will have to consider prior lining up at apple's stores for a take away encounter. It's a game changing plan, a strategy kept forward to freshly improve company's line of manufacture. From my own-made Jewish scroll, apple considered a simple mode of design which Google & known rival Samsung with it's Android partnered operating system futiled it's progression. I would really love to see more out of apple's design & innovation.

 The iPhone 5 spots a display of 4 inches in size, a boost from 3.5 seen from previous line of production. Here in Kenya, few allies are strongly rooted to Android  more specifically, Samsung devices (Set others on a 2% and below listing pie) I see this as weak-spot apple isn't really taking into consideration. If the African Savannah can portray vast & embrace meaningful food-chain criteria why not an intelligent human? things have taken a face-lift. Not only kenya, the country i belong to, embraces android but the whole world does it on street.....no compromise! what gravitates consumers flock the Samsung stores is rather the bold screens top smartphone manufacture, Samsung invents when coming up with a new twine of pattern design. The company, apple is also expected to follow soot.

I can imagine consumers Quisling outside silicon valley (340 university Ave, Palo Alto, CA at the united states) for a new feel of different taste of the iPhone 5S.  Jaffray analyst Gene Munster, analyst taking second position after Tony sacconaghi best analyst of Sanford Bernstein's believes the yet unveiled iPhone 5S will be a total game changer. Tony together with Jaffray from a post have intuitively hinted on the price aspect consumers are likely to face come end of June. It'll be a 3 conundrum of choice..... multiple screens for consumers to brace on while 2 pulling iPhone prices where in one occasion a group will see it as cheap while the other awaits for any, so long as it's an iPhone on store. What's more appealing to me is how the cheap iPhone 5S design will glitter the market for the first time but please don't be pretty first to coy around. Lets hope for concept to be a reality. For a clean record of menace, the iPhone 5S project appears inside 2 bloated papers. After taking size and cost into account, let's play with the assumption that Apple considers three different screen sizes for the next generation of it's iPhone by analyzing this into one simpler ideology:

- One model would likely adopt a size larger than 4 inches; this could prove tempting to consumers who initially gravitated larger screen provided by Android phones 
- A second model would stick with current 4 inch HD display for individuals who don't see change as prime mover!
- & lastly the 3rd would go smaller than the 4 inches and thereby sell at a lower price.

What's the Turning point?
 It's also very important to note prices expected from this very robust device may differ from what many of you expected. I see an average ranging price from ($250 - $300) (That's Ksh 20,000/= - Ksh 25,300/= predicted Kenyan price) for a lower price iPhone while ($300 - $350)  (That's Ksh 25,000/=  -  Ksh 29,750/= predicted Kenyan price) for the expected super 5S device. At-least that makes more sense. So as we await end of July this year, let's go deeper inside our pockets & have our digits well calculated for a clinical usher of this very brilliant device that Johnathan Ivy together with Bob Mansfield  have for the world

Commentary (On conclusion) :- Apple is still facing increasing pressure, both from Android rival Samsung and investors. The company needs to apply more innovation & offer more choices across it's traditional lineup to prove it's still a competitive force.

Will the "Haswell" processor be the next F1 Engine? Let's chime that into analysis


It has been 1 year & 3 months since sandy & ivy bridge came to market. Tech-gurus have managed to motivate consumers by allowing integration of Nvidia thus providing best performance when working across your device. Lets make it clear that top firms like Microsoft, & Apple have had and always made it on higher pedestal from the fact that engineering ivy & sandy wasn't a spare to unfold. Last year at world-wide-developers conference (wwdc) apple company unveiled both 13 and 15 inch MacBook pro all capacitance displaying ivy bridge in control, come to Microsoft, it's first PC, surface tablet survived round one with it also maintaining ivy processor on-board. Of-course other PC firms like Lenovo showcased the same but if i was to ask, will the incoming haswell processor be the next F1 engine to turn request for other companies to follow soot? I bet no......whatever am about to analyse should be taken with a clean, pinch of salt. technical- wise, ivy bridge processor has shown great interest to PC manufacturing firms. Take the case of execution be of great topic here. Ivy bridge, though not taking order of execution into consideration, it's to my opinion that, ivy still maintains a stable record in execution that haswell won't be holding if granted an additional 2 years. Analysts have argued that haswell will rather be sailing hot prior & after it's sale but afterwords maintain dormancy after 4-5 months of release. Features packed with haswell are quite liquiditive, ease the pain of less uphold of battery power, excellent data transfer with both front & back buses but won't satisfy it's consumers when it comes to real back-up of stability especially on complex operating systems . You wanna know why haswell's a passing cloud? check on these two principals i've down broken for you.

Out-of-order execution.

a processor executes instructions in an order governed by the availability of input data, rather than by their original order in a program. It's a mind blowing innovation, easy & somehow reliable when viewed from shallow angles but doesn't this alter system's developers pattern of formality? am assuming if complex operating systems like MS windows & OSX (x-versions) are to be directly layered on haswell processor then target firms developing these stand-alones' will have to layhands on a clean 1 billion hefty package to re-programme different layout of data transmission that may not favor the smooth rendering of haswell's program execution. Pointing on both ivy and sandy bridge, haswell emerges as complex processor that may not comply with hardwares' compatibility of standards. With 22nm on both old & the yet unveiled 4th generation processor, questions still revolve  as to whether out-of-order execution serves haswell a knight of Camelot.     

Desktops and server stations chip-sets maintains a C1-C4 power state design. 

C1-C4 are not tangible materials as many of you would think but rather, CPU / package sleep states that are governed by internal 3D-trigates that calculate transmissions of these CPU packages. Initially, both sandy & ivy bridge clogged the Q5-Q8 chipsets that are with no doubt chip-sets with right fitting instruction. Mobile devices clogged the QHM87 - QHM86 inbuilt chipsets that gave normal threshold lining of power consumption when entering standby/sleep mode. Today we're hinted to haswell, the 4th generation processor but do industries really want to unfold what was termed old & incapable with matters concerning power balance? It is a big YES that haswell will make us proud by mobilizing resources which will soon cut down heavy guzzling of power but what of C1-C4 chipsets? it won't change anything! 

Commentary:- Well, it's a battle for which series of processor gets in the consumer cycle. Intel hasn't failed yet but the huddle ahead makes no hive for it to delay further. The 4th generation processor will make progressions if only, matters concerning executions & chip-sets remuneration are taken via a live lens.

WWDC will unveil more than what the world can imagine! - Sources reveal.



Apple Campus Silicon Valley ( Credit: Isapazio.com )

Commentary:- it's been a slice of who is to win the goblin luncheon up the market as firms pick gears to up their game. Android apart from iOS has shown brilliant up-times since Vin Gundotra ( senior Vice President, Engineering for Google ) usher at Google labs. Hadn't jobs seen this coming? no, i guess. Proper software team kept in place made android shine just weeks after gundotra's entry at Google labs. It's for this reason Apple's iOS hasn't been making the top, years after early "10's. I tend to reason out that it's indeed this time, lessons taken after a crack-down now sinks down to apple's reality. iOS, has, on the same note enjoyed monopoly for quite a howl but again Cook ( Apple's rep CEO ) is changing ways as game tightens to these two battling mobile OS's. Sources reveal underway projects kept in place ahead of next wwdc (World-Wide-Developers-Conference) scheduled june this year bring with it great expectation that Google as a top priority will leave to remember. Current's siding team in apple's judicial have made great foretell as to why iOS will be clenching the top come June. Time-to-time surveys & gossips from different clouds of coherent minority have talked a lot concerning iOS. Many have argued that Apple is secretly "bi-amping" up siri where programmers hired for such a job have to show interest  in mobilizing it's capabilities for easier tagging of excellent Geo location especially when on malls / while driving through busy & robust streets that made siri in it's early stages an app that many of us viewed as un-fruitful. I also understand apple is once again aiming it's arrow to it's legitimate maps that Scott Forstall (Previous as iOS Software President)  never signed for, as expected. What comes to my mind when i get to hear about apple maps is a twine-to-twine hinting edge, that apple won't debut iOS 7 come June ( for those who long-waited for this silver lining, lets pray hard ). The reason as to why am saying this is that, a native application like Flipboard for Android , never got a face-lift when Samsung was facing-out SII for it's next generation of galaxy note earlier in 2011. Why? blame it on time factor! What i actually mean is, no firm perhaps Google nor Apple can as well launch a newer OS whereas a previous one logged glitches that still rendered zero updates since it's time of rolling to the time of use by consumers. It's now clear that apple will now concentrate on iOS 6, fix issues that earlier made it a quaky mobile OS. Am yet to understand when iOS 7 will roll-out but what am optimistic about is, apple won't make any step to have it rolled out at any time of the year. What of next iPhone generation design? John ivy has "One more thing for us..." completely different with a cleaner, uncluttered design, gauge my imagination!

Incoming goodies with the iPhone 5S? 
Checking on what's expected, iPhone 5s won't change radically. The current iPhone maintains a shape of   <---50.57---> by width & 123.40 by length making it a lightweight phone. The same applies to the yet debuted iPhone 5s but the difference clocks-in as the perimeter of the known switch / sleep button gets a slighter margin of decrease to emphasize on tap & click criteria that Johny Ive (Senior vice-president of industrial design at Apple)  tends to explain on Daily Mail - Online earlier, yesterday morning.   


Commentary:- Counting from the horse's stamps, apple has made it clear that since Samsung made a coy out of their interior & UI design, it's now elevating it's mechanics & level of invention where all of it's products gets polarized display that will greatly reduce viewing angles thus making it difficult for observers to see significance system-wide UI over-howl. Judging from the smart-watch technology, i got to uncover how the iPhone 5s hardware support will be able to mate it's very iWatch through a tethered connection. Apple, via a press release brought this brilliant aspect on light after posting hours later, that "iWatch will be able to mate your iPod, iPhone or even your Mac through a tethered connection. We workout the impossible"

- It's no doubt & seems very interesting that the waited wwdc (World-Wide-Developers-Conference) will as well shade light to areas that Google saw it as an advantage to loop-out it's first climbings. Ultimately, Google is playing well good, infact best! but the level of invention that apple stings at hand can never-the-less be compared with no other!

Jailbreak Conundrum? Evad3rs has a YES for all iPhone 5 users

Jailbroken  iPhone 5 displaying Cydia app store (Credit: SourceFeedNews.com)


Commentary:- Jail-breaking an iPhone, in fact the iPhone 5 seems interesting. It's about 4 months since Apple debuted this stylish, gorgeous & most terrific iDevice for the spring users to embrace. What makes it interesting is how the clean fit of it's Britannica design takes shape when working with it on your palm. The iPhone 5 is lately designed to perform better with high level & extreme graphic hardware acceleration, be it gaming, browsing the web, taking HD photos & as well videos for later review. Apple, of late, has given it's users a mind controlling device to tangle about, but does anyone realize how more interesting this iDevice can be when jailbroken? i guess some of you aren't getting this right. Don't get it twisted either. Jailbreaking here simply means, removing Apple's limitation from it's iOS devices' operating system through the use of software & hardware exploits. The iDevices that fall into this one iOS basket includes the iPod touch, iPad, iPhone & Second Generation Apple TV. All have the capabilities of dribbling  binaries that kernel from A5 family can marry & merge both it's firmware & kernel-band into one. Well it's time to throw this evasion secret to the wind & let the parachute drop you to a land of alternate app store known as Cydia. Jailbreaking has given insight to developers but again a stressful incarnation is what raises this flag of frustration to many. Apple, for the past years, has been chipping critical patches to it's latest iDevice hardware for excellent restriction where hackers have still come to discover. Take the scenario of iOS 5, was it a living menace that no hacker came to unveil? Did it come to fade away from the thoughts of many Apple users? the definite answer here is NO; -  & i mean there's nothing gonna stumble hackers from debuting a newer way of hacking into that system. Last week on Sunday, that's five days past to be precise, a group of hackers styling themselves as the Evad3rs team gave a tweet that went viral stating their new release of a usable jailbreak software that could go through a couple of iOS devices with the iPhone 5 & others being included. Interestingly, the jailbreak, through the 1st two, day, test-run attempt after it's debut, only worked well but through a tethered installation (Direct iDevice connection with PC resources being on utility). No one especially me recommended this kind of jailbreak actually because of various reasons here & there. After performing the above jailbreak, users could only turn-on/reboot their device via an open & full authentication of a cable plug-in. I first experienced this when jailbreaking my 1st iPhone,  the iPhone 4. I could hardly switch on my device when it abruptly went off due to low battery power, meaning, i had to head back home later in the day after my day work & boot it back to life via a tethered connection with my laptop offering such a support. It's on Wednesday that a new & advanced jailbreaking mechanism was kept in place for junkies to gaga with.

- Now, without wasting no time, I'll highlight fancy steps on how you'll jailbreak your iPhone 5 cellphone in minutes:

*Step 1 visit this Evasi0n Jailbreak website here & download only packages aided for your platform.
*step 2 Go to the website of Redsn0w and down load the jailbreak tool depending upon the OS of your computer and the baseband of your phone
*Step 3  Create a folder for this tool on your desktop and name it redsn0w
*step 4  Unzip the files of the software and launch it on your computer (Windows users) for Linux & Mac based platform run the tarball file (Best initialed as Tar) package under a terminal execution, making sure you're logged in as Root as I've displayed below.

*Step 5 Initiate jailbreak option in the software but before that, make sure you click on run as administrator option (On windows platform) or Root/Super User (On either Mac/Linux)
*Step 6 switch off the iPhone 5 and connect it to the computer
*Step 7  Put the device in DFU mode and follow the commands given by the jailbreak tool
*Step 8  The software notifies before completing jailbreak. This is when you need to click on exit before unplugging the phone from the computer
*Step 9  Your iPhone 5 is now jailbroken. You can also unlock it if you choose!

Warning!!!
Let it be clearly noted that i will not be held liable for any damage to the device. Users are advised to create back-up for all the data of the device. Ensure that the battery of the device carries more than 80 per cent of charge.

N/B
-Jailbreaking doesn't unlock your iDevice. It's only a rail-line exposing you to various 3rd party application & furthermore evade Apple's restrictions. 

- Am pretty sure you're now displaying a coy smile on your face as your iPhone 5 is now ready to take full control to the world of amazing apps, some paid for, while others not exorbitant in any way or rather on commercial - Amazingly free!

Apple gets aggressive: Snow White leopard get's Java blockage Update

 


Commentary:-   Malware in-fact self extracting vulnerabilities isn't what many really appreciate to encounter. Just few weeks ago persons systems were highly & profusely invaded by a Malware strain, that is believed to have worked differently from the initial one incurred previously known as flashback after a recent security issue.. For 5 yrs Mac users have served under hasty condition where combating vulnerabilities has become an everyday tune. Earlier on friday apple released an update blockage to counter it's approach on system for it's loyal, Mac users. The 1st update rolled out only for persons working on OS X version of Lion & OS X Mountain lion. For the OS X snow white came only a day later after 1st critical test for both OS X lion & Mountain lion versions too. All these updates were then to be administered differently, others, via manual update while some from apple's update center which can be best performed by navigating on apple's icon & their after invoking a quick update which is done automatically by the system after a soft left mouse button click. Apart from this, we've also had the problem of Java patch, where Java's optional version (v1.7.0_13) wasn't a slice for Snow white users, rather, for OS X lion & higher. I've also tried running Java update 7 Run time but unfortunately got few hustles immediately after update progress came to completion. However, Apple has now released a separate update for Java 6 which currently prompts quick actions to counteract vulnerabilities when executing pages & all the same programs that rely on Java for excellent performance. The update procedure is again very simple, actually not head cracking as seen of OS X higher versions (Lion & Mountain Lion). Users running on Snow white platform can as well perform the roll-out via Apple's update menu. So far I've received complaints from my readers attaching uproar where few programs they run prefer Java for best functionality of which most pages end-up with 404- redundancy cycle check input return as a result. What I can advice for now is, the web plug-in component for run time should be disable if no programs or web cart services like e-banking isn't a portion of work on your list. Users who will need Java SE later might at least consider disabling the plug-in in the Java Control Panel (or in Apple's Java Preferences utility for Java SE 6)

-Using OS X versions different from Snow White? Here is an update specifically for you!

Truth be told: Dual phone is not the way to go!


Commentary: -   Of late I've done post on OS most probably, desktop OS. Am yet to focus my blog-posts  with serious sentiments on Android, maybe few on that. It's not I haven't been at par with Android, No, In-fact my first phone was once an Android device before i paved way to iOS. Today on a blog post, most particularly , on comments someone just made it clear that a dual OS phone won't surpass the market. I guess he's going real on this, apparently an auditor through twitter conversation confirmed the same "dual OS device isn't going strong neither today or in the future". My bet is perfectly inclined on this same knot. Android devices, for long howl rather 7 yrs down the line have shown best for developers, aiming at least 70,000+ developers while 30% of first ¾ made an imminent port for blackberry support. Slash gearing occasion since the start of Android have bow smiles to many developers across the globe, but achieving dream on how to focus on dual booting operation has seemingly laid grieve to many programmers. I don't & in anyway going hard on android developments scheme but what angers me most is trying to decode bunch of numerics & binaries only to out-stand dual operation on Android devices. I've tried a couple of times gathering ROM's binary expanders with hopes to succeed with excellent dual boot on both Sony Ericsson & samsung galaxy note II but it all went clenching my dreams in vain. With other devices, I'll rather say, I  succeeded & working out to completion has been very successful especially in my country Kenya where many are still embracing low-level entry android devices like the Samsung galaxy mini, galaxy pocket & huawei's 1st test run, Ideos phone. I've managed installing 3x3 ROM expanders each entailing an ice leak of 2>4000 binaries that still support previous clockwork modes of the current Rom's manager application. Of course they run seemingly perfect but then, with no technical know how, automatically redounds to a total crash. It's again on pints that 2% of developers still want to cut a record with effects that not even 2/3 show happiness to this very kind of project. I now know many of you are thinking of throwing stones at me but what am putting forward it's all fact. Why shouldn't  Android be android while iOS remain to be iOS ? Programmers have really drilled on ways to make this dream come true but it's bending gears across the elite who need to gain victory in this. I can vividly remember when I used to see my dad utilize Macintosh in those old golden days where dual booting 2 sequential OS (Macintosh & Linux) was the only way out to favor my endurance on the keyboard but then, gave glitches that ended up quartering new BIOS & re-editing all again to continue offering support of the two. It's the same way here when I tried blending two different ROM expanders only to see each & every android device booting with a gorgeous smile with the android animated robot taking the splash screen. It's again insane for a developer like I mandate to squid extensive binaries only to crash the system after a couple of tries.



Who knows though? I could be analyzing at cross-roads? Do you think the dual OS phone is really a possibility? Leave your opinion in the comments below!

128 GB on the 4th generation iPad? : Apple isn't palying fair to it's Air.

 Mac book air - early 2006 - late may 2011 branded design
(Credit -- Apple)

Commentary:- Earlier on Wednesday apple confirmed it, through a press release, 4th generation of the iPad will be coming handy with 128 Gigs in capacity. Of course apple isn't playing fair here. Same company with two products on stage, yet a cut-off for one. Why this way? The Mac Book Air posses variety & tremendous features that outsources the 4th generation iPad. If i was to choose today between the Air & 128GB 4th generation iPad,  i would automatically concede positively with the air. Myself am inclined to both movies & music as my favs'. Having 64GB capacity slate on a stunning device like the Mac book isn't slotting logic across the minds of many analysts. Microsofts' store is today, chronologically packed with tablets that posses same 128 GB on board. Individuals, especially business staffs have had the perfect functionality that makes air a gorgeous device to close fiscal year with. Am yet to understand why cutting yummy binaries for the iPad is that essential where as the air gets a 60GB off. From the statistics margin, apple has about up to 60% of OS X users that offsets 35% of the iPad as the final pie. What does this mean? many are on the line gulfing on-line storage with the benefit of having vital data such as photos, documents & as well keynotes created from iPhones/i Macs stored on the cloud. 60GB on the air is extremely insane especially when i can't swipe the device with a slice of an SSD slate drive. It's again ridiculous when a company like Apple is chasing for the bottom rather than the top. Is it because Exxon Mobil Inc made proper growth worth $498.5 thus making it tail hot as a looser? Fine, with 128 gigs on the IPad isn't a bad idea as Toni Sacconaghi - (Wall street Apple's Best Analyst)  puts it but what of the air? We've seen an integration not only in the US but then, globally. The Mac book's taking best in profit. Consumers find both products excellent. If apple isn't going to clench & give close examinees to it's air then let the company be prepared for total deprive from it's consumers. The air is still a device that consumers & businesses  look up to & that doesn't mean the iPad is left off the radius, what's tangling consumers to apple's device is rather the space & not the design as well.  Most other Windows laptops start with 128GB SSDs. It's time for the Air to follow suit, too.
