Show Album Art in App Switcher on iOS with this Cydia Tweak

<Category: Apple, iPad, iPhone, iPod> No comment

Normally when a music or video app is running, its icon shows in the application switcher tray in iOS. A few examples of such apps are the Music (formally iPod), YouTube and Vevo. How cool would it be if instead of the icon, the album art of the currently playing son shows instead of the Music app? Well, we aren’t sure since that’s not one area we see often, but you can find out by installing AlbumArt in AppSwitcher tweak from Cydia.

iOS 5.0.1 OTA Update Messes Up Address Book for Verizon iPhone 4S Users – Here’s How To Fix it

<Category: Apple, iPhone> No comment

iOS 5.0.1 update hasn’t done much wonders for users for their battery life woes but it has introduced a new bug which messes up the address book for iPhone 4S users on Verizon. What it does is that it removes the contact’s name and shows just their number in the text contact field or when someone calls the user. Basically, it’s as if you just saved a number and not the contact’s name even though that’s not the case.

Horrible Battery Life on iPhone 4 with iOS 5? You’re not alone!

<Category: Apple, iPhone> 4 Comments

I’ve been reading about this issue all over the Internet and if you’ve come here, chances are that you’re suffering from this as well. Ever since the final release of iOS 5, the iPhone 4 battery drains like there’s a leak in it. Sure, I use my phone a lot more than the average person ( I know because people give me the looks which I rarely notice as my eyes are glued to the screen ) but the battery drains the most on standby which is just astonishing! How can my iPhone 4 lose 10% battery overnight after being fully charged and that too on stand by?

Ladies and Gents, Start your Pre-Order Engines

<Category: Apple, iPhone> No comment

For all those in the dark, or who just forgot, pre-orders for the new iPhone 4S begin tomorrow morning at 12:01 PDT. That is in approximately 1 hour. I am online and waiting to get mine, and so should you. Expect to see some weird activity, as the site will be getting hit hard with lots more people trying to get their phone. If you really want, wait until the morning to do your pre-order. Traffic will have slowed and it will be less frustrating to get your order in.
