Troubleshooting your device, easy way!

Troubleshooting your iOS device! PART 1

Hi there everyone and welcome to Axle Tech, a friendly blog that explains binary language in "plain" English!
K, let's start those iDevice because today I will share with you the secrets of handling your iPhone,iPod or iPad. Before we get to the hard stuff lets start with the basics, let's get to know our device, shall we ?

1- iPhone,iPod, iPad freeze !
Okay, people what do you do when your device freezes ? Some of the way to get it out of freeze stat is to let the device drains out of it's juice then charge it.
--> solution to this problem is simple, just hold the power and home button together and it will black out then lights up! Release when you see the apple logo.

2- iDevice overheating ! (older devices)
Okay ladies and gents sorry to ruin your day at the beach but you should consider the temperature there and also verify if the device is getting hot, overheating device can result of hardware problems and also of shortening the battery life of the device, eventually when overheating it will discharge much faster.
--> solution to this is to take out the case if it have and take it to a cooler place, do not splash in water or put it in the freezer, water and circuit boards are not friends. If the problem persists, try shutting it down for a while and wait until it cools off!

3- Device is running slow
Sometimes your device could be a real turtle at some point, apps may be loading much longer than usual.
-->solution
apparently that's a sign that your device is running out of memory. You better try to free memory by killing (closing) apps that you are not using. How to do that ?
Press the home button twice, you will see the multitasking menu showing all the running apps.

Then tap and hold the app icon you want to close and you'll see soothing like this

Tap on the red bubble to close and Voilà you have free some memory.

That's it for today!
Be sure to look out for the second part of this post where I will post advanced troubleshooting which involves in stuff like errors 16xx 17xx during restore and much much more, STAY TUNED !

let's talk about jailbreaking !!!

Okay Ladies and Gentleman, I know how good it is to have the latest and most advanced iDevice !!! During the presentation of the iPhone 5, many issues have been brought, thought and we have seen changes ! Now the iPhone got bigger screen which I think was far too long since many Droids out there have been competing for bigger and best "vivid" images. The iPhone 5 runs on a powerful A6 processor, faster than the iPhone 4s, way faster than the 3gs and extremely (10x) faster than the 2g ( sorry 2g users). Facetime still the same, Siri got more mature, maps app sucked but is getting better but..................... BUT.......... None of these above are really on the highest on the priority list.
Okay, Apple once a again made a great phone and everything, faster, much more gaming, ultra fast camera, BIG screen but I know what's on your mind :) 
Every iOS 6 powered users have been awaiting for a "jailbreak". Yup! life is better if jailbroken.
As always, I'm going to keep it plain and simple for all you guys here. First of all, for all you newbies, the word "jailbreak" means to have root privileges on your iPhone, jailbreak for Android users is equal to "rooting" so why would you want to go to all the trouble or having root privileges on your iDevice ?
Simple ! you can download apps banned from the App Store, get tweaks, wallpapers and much much more.
K, that was it for the little lesson, now to the interesting stuff, How to jailbreak iOS 6 ? What is the most secure way ? Will it be a tethered or untethered jailbreak ?


Steps and Instructions to Jailbreak iOS 6
These are the steps and instructions and by performing these you will be able to jailbreak your device very easily.

• First of all connect your device to your computer or laptop.

• After that open the jailbreak tool, once you are done then you will need to select your device from that.

• Now select the firmware version and click on the DFU mode.

• *If you don't have the firmware yet please  download iOS 6 firmware via iTunes, by connecting your device and click on the device then "check for updates", you will see a popup saying there's a update for your device, select "download only", DO NOT UPDATE, you will see the download progress under Store in iTunes after it finish, locate the download file to load on the Jailbreak tool

If you don’t know about what is the major difference between tethered jailbreak & untethered jailbreak then by continuing reading you will be get better idea that which one is better. On the tethered jailbreak, if your device get turned off then you will have to boot your device from start which is quite tough job. But on the other hand, on the untethered jailbreak device if your device gets turned off or reboot then you will not have to boot it. It will work like normal device that you have got but you will be able to perform all the hacks that jailbreak device can do.
Apple lately releasing some new info about their new Smartphone and it’s creating some sort of mystery. We saw on some websites that Apple released the new smartphone picture and most of the people were saying that it is iPhone 6 and some were saying it is iPhone 5S. But one of the most important thing is that there is iOS 7 playing around on those devices which we are not able to guarantee that is that true or not. This is what we have just seen. Apple currently running iOS 6.0.1 beta 4 for the developers and it seems like iOS 6.1 will be coming in upcoming days.

TETHERING

 TETHERING

It's been a while since I posted and I want to apologize to all the readers of this blog. Okay, it's been a while and I've been in my room, drinking coffee, writing code and excetera but.... I have done some research and most of all, I know there's iOS users out there that have been struggling for tethering and thus without paying a lot of cash. Well, nothing is for free in life and that doesn't mean you can't have a bargain price !

The best iPhone tethering apps

Two apps that have implemented precautions are both on our list of best Cydia apps: TetherMe and PdaNet. TetherMe costs $4.99 in Cydia (a bargain compared to the $20 MyWi), and PdaNet is pricier at $14.99.
The two apps take different approaches to tethering. TetherMe goes the simple route: it enables iOS’s native tethering (without a plan) and edits APNs to hide it from carriers. It’s simple, it’s easy to use, and it’s one of the cheapest tethering apps out there.
Pdanet, meanwhile, offers a more advanced feature set, and it appears to take a stricter approach to hiding your tethering from your carrier. It lets you choose between “level 1″ hiding, which should suffice for most users, or the more powerful “level 2,” which gives you mobile versions of sites on your tethered device. PdaNet functions as a standalone app, and doesn’t involve the native iOS tethering interface.
The carriers’ customer-hostile policy towards tethering is annoying, but it’s comforting to know that the development community has risen to the occasion. There are other ways that wireless providers could potentially detect your tethering (packet sniffing?), but we haven’t heard any reports of that. Chances are, these two apps will let you enjoy free tethering without any hassle.

Avoid MyWi (for now)

The most popular iPhone tethering app is called MyWi — but I actually don’t recommend it. This isn’t due to its feature set, which is second to none. It’s because the developers of MyWi haven’t taken any measures to hide tethering from carriers.
During the last year, AT&T and Verizon started cracking down on accounts that showed unauthorized tethering. MyWi was almost always the app that customers who received the notices were using, and the devs haven’t updated it with a stealth mode. It’s a great app, but if it leads to your being forced into a paid tethering plan, there’s no point.
