iPhone 5 Shipping Times Slip to 3-4 Weeks




Shipping times for orders of the new iPhone 5 have slipped to 3-4 weeks.

When pre-orders went live it took just one hour for the first batch of iPhone 5s to sell out. Shipping times slipped to 2 weeks. Now, just five days later, that batch is also sold out.

If you are planning to get an iPhone 5 anytime soon we would recommend waiting in line on Friday or checking for stock at other retailers.

How to Fake a Leaked iPhone 5 Video or Picture

Given the recent news and the available parts this is how to fake a leaked iPhone 5 picture or video. With news from yahoo about the GooPhone and the iphone5 mod kit.

With just a few over the counter parts (so to speak) you can make your very own iPhone 5 look alike. First purchase the GooPhone i5 from here.
Then try to find one of these back doors that will fit the GooPhone i5(I'm petty sure that wouldn't be the hardest part)



Then replace the GooPhone honeycombs back door with this one and there you go! You have yourself a iPhone 5 look alike before anyone and go ahead and post it online as leaked pictures and video of the iPhone 5.


This post is intended for humor purposes only, we are not implying or directing anyone to do this. We just wanted to show how easy it is to fake all of these pictures floating around online of the iPhone 5.

If you take a look at this video and then the following pictures you may notice a pattern. Non of the pictures and or videos of the so called leaked iPhone 5 match each other! One of these could be real or non of them, we won't know until next week and stay tuned we will have a live blog of the iPhone 5 event by Apple.

Video Claims to Show 'iPhone 5' Booting Up




M.I.C Gadget has posted a video found on Vgooo that supposedly shows an 'iPhone 5' prototype booting up.

--
According to the Chinese tipster, he "accidentally" discovered an iPhone 5 prototype at Foxconn's factory in Jincheng, and when he got his hands-on with it, he could feel the phone is thinner, and it is indeed taller. He quickly took some photos, and a video. Well, is the boot up video real or fake? We are not sure, but it's still interesting to see the device in the video could not be activated, where it says,

"This device is not registered as part of the iPhone Developer Program. If you are a member of the program, please register your device in the @@url@@."
--

Take a look at the video below...

iPhone Dev-Team Releases RedSn0w and PwnageTool Updates to Jailbreak iOS 5.1.1




The iPhone Dev-Team has released updates to PwnageTool, RedSn0w, and CInject that bring support for the iOS 5.1.1 untethered jailbreak.

RedSn0w
redsn0w allows owners of A4+earlier devices to install rocky-racoon two different ways:
● backup/restore method similar to Absinthe and cinject
● its traditional limera1n-based ramdisk install. If you have a lot of media on your A4 device (music, movies, TV shows, etc), then the ramdisk method is preferrred because it avoids any possibility of later problems related to syncing to iCloud (including Photo Stream and Music Match). The ramdisk method is not available for A5 devices or later because limera1n can't be used. If you'd like to use redsn0w's ramdisk method, just be sure to put the A4 device in DFU or Recovery mode before starting redsn0w (otherwise it will immediately start to use the backup/restore method).

We've also added a new redsn0w feature specifically for those who got in on the SAM unlock: you can now include your SAM tickets as part of your initial ramdisk jailbreak of iPhone4 or earlier, or alternatively you can upload your SAM tickets to any device after its been jailbroken. redsn0w accepts either the individual SAM activation ticket plist file, or the entire zip file created by redsn0w's "Backup" button. As usual, redsn0w continues to cover all of its previous jailbreaks and untethers (so redsn0w-0.9.12b1 covers everything from 5.1.1 all the way back to 4.1).

PwnageTool
PwnageTool also avoids any possible sync issues, but again it applies only to A4+earlier devices. If you unlock your iPhone with ultrasn0w or a commercial method, you must use PwnageTool to avoid updating your baseband otherwise you'll lose the unlock. PwnageTool will also jailbreak+untether the AppleTV2,1 5.0_2B206f (unless you customize the IPSW further, you'll have just basic SSH access to the device).

Contributions:
If you'd like to contribute to those that actually developed rocky-racoon, please visit here (any other links you may see are not going to the actual rocky-racoon developers, they're being diverted to other "related" or fraudulent accounts).

This particular jailbreak brought an unusual amount of fanfare and hoopla to the table, including "press releases" and other haughty silliness. We'd just like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that jailbreaking is about freedom, not fame and donations!

Downloads:
You can find download links here:
● PwnageTool
● Redsn0w
● CInject

Tutorials:
● iPhone 4S (Windows, Mac)
● More coming soon...

Rocky Racoon Untether Updated to Support iPad 2,4




The Chronic Dev-Team has released an update to the Rocky Racoon Untether package that supports the new iPad 2,4.

This package will allow your 5.1.1 device to reboot without requiring an external tool such as redsn0w.

As there are now two versions of iOS both called "5.1.1" for iPhone 4 GSM, 1.0-2 was released to support both.

Apple released a new iPad 2 WiFi, a unique piece of hardware that was difficult to find, now support in 1.0-3

You can install the Rocky Racoon 5.1.1 Untether package from Cydia to untether a device previously jailbroken with RedSn0w instead of using Absinthe.
