Leaked Photos of Alleged Samsung Galaxy S4 Pops Up

Samsung galaxy logo
While Samsung is ready to release the next generation Galaxy smartphone on March 14, some pictures have emerged on the internet which claims to be of Samsung Galaxy S4. Just as it happens with major gadget release like Apple iPhones, "leaked" photos of the next generation Samsung Galaxy are popping up on the internet. A user on a Chinese website named 52Samsung have posted pictures of a Samsung smartphone which he claims to be of Samsung Galaxy S4.


These leaked images shows a big smartphone having about 5-inch screen with curvy corners and metal (probably aluminum) stripe along the sides. The front and back panel appears to have dot-textured finishing.

The phone back contains a camera with LED flash and speaker appears to be at the bottom. The power button is on the right side. At the bottom, there is a micro USB port.

The hardware of this phone looks impressive with quad-core ARMv7 processor clocked at 1.8 GHz and 2 GB RAM. Photos shows this phone is running Android version 4.2.1.

While is is still unclear if these images are legitimate or not, it is clear Samsung will get benefit of the hype. Looking at the images, this phone does not look good in finishing or it may be just me not happy with the finishing.
While I am not a fan of Galaxy smartphones, and the whole Android thing, I will be interested more if these "leaked" images are legit or not. it is always fun to see the internet being filled with these kind of images which creates hype about the said gadget. I remember Gizmodo posting pictures of iPhone 4 prototype before its release and Apple allegedly got Gizmodo Editor Jason Chen's home raided.

This is what happens with every major gadget release. First the companies announce "something new" coming. Then people start speculating and "leaking" images and videos of this gadget. Some news of the product suddenly pops up. Some employee suddenly forgets the prototype in a bar, distributor or accessory maker "mistakenly" publishes listing on the website and quickly removes it after someone see it and "breaks the news" on the internet. Then companies avoid confirming anything. I bet they laugh at us in their offices because all the unnecessary hoopla gains them a huge benefit. They enjoy the drama before the release, and so do we right?

Samsung has released two teasers of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S4 so far. Watch them below.

Apple Releases iOS 6.1.1 for iPhone 4S - Fixes Cellular Performance Issue - Direct Download Link

Apple has released iOS 6.1.1 update for iPhone 4S after some carriers including Vodafone reported poor cellular performance over 3G networks on iPhone 4S running recently released ioS 6.1. Vodafone recently notified that they were aware of an issue caused by Apple iPhone 4S handsets that have been upgraded to iOS 6.1 which impacts performance on 3G and asked those who haven't yet upgraded to iOS 6.1 to delay their update till Apple fixes the issue.

iOS 6.1.1 for iPhone 4S - What's New?
According to Apple - This update fixes an issue that could impact cellular performance and reliability for iPhone 4S.

How to upgrade to iOS 6.1.1?
There are two ways to upgrade your iphone 4S to iOS 6.1.1. One is Over The Air (OTA) update. Connect your iPhone 4S to a stable Wi-Fi connection and go to Settings > General > Software Update and tao Download and Install. iOS 6.1.1 will be download and installed on your iphone 4S. The benefit of OTA metod will be that you will have to download only around 86 MB in order to upgrade to iOS 6.1.1.

One thing you should keep in mind that if you are going to jailbreak your iPhone 4S after upgrading, you better not use OTA method as jailbreaks can't work on a device updated through OTA updates. Use the another method.

The second method is to download iOS 6.1.1 IPSW file for iPhone 4S and restore using it in iTunes. To do so, download iOS 6.1.1 IPSW and open iTunes. Press and hold Shift key on Windows or Options key on Mac and click restore button in iTunes. Release Shift or Options key and browse to the IPSW you just download and select it. iTunes will now update your iPhone 4S to iOS 6.1.1. The downside of this method is that you will have to download a large IPSW file weighing around 900 MB but the good thing is that you will not have to download it again if you need to restore again in future.

Where to download iOS 6.1.1 IPSW from?
You can download iOS 6.1.1 IPSW for your iPhone 4S from Blog O'nerd Downloads as usual. Click here to download iOS 6.1.1 IPSW from Blog O'Nerd Downloads using direct link.

Apple recently released iOS 6.1 and just after a few days, evad3rs team released evasi0n jailbreak tool for all devices running on iOS 6 through iOS 6.1. The same jailbreak still works on iOS 6.1.1 too but it needs to be updated in order to recognize iPhone 4S running on iOS 6.1.1. It looks like they will update evasi0n jailbreak soon to work on iOS 6.1.1.

Step 2
Click Browse for an IPSW button and browse for the IPSW you have downloaded and select it. If your device is iphone 3GS, sn0wbreeze will ask you if it is old bootrom or new bootrom. Select appropriate option. If you don't know about it, click New Bootrom.


sn0wbreeze will now show your device model and the version of the IPSW you have selected. Click Next.


Step 3
Now select Expert Mode.


Step 4
Click on General and click Next button.


Step 5
If you want to hactivate your iPhone, make sure you check the "Activate iPhone [Hactivate]" box and click Next button.

Step 9
Run iTunes. It will say your device needs a restore. Click OK.
Now press and hold Shift key on your keyboard and click restore button in iTunes. Release shift key and select the custom IPSW that sn0wbreeze made . It will be on your desktop.

Now iTunes will start restore process. Wait until it finishes and your device reboots.

Step 10
After the restore is finished, you can now unlock your iPhone.

If you use ultrasn0w to unlock your iPhone, then ipen Cydia, let it do some first-run process if required and search for ultrasn0w. Install it and reboot your iPhone. Your iPhone is now unlocked and you should see the signal bar now.

If you use SIM interposer like Gevey or R-SIM, insert it in your SIM tray and do the unlock process as usual.

If you unlocked using the SAM unlock method in past, and ONLY IF you have backed up the Lockdown folder, you can now use it to unlock your iPhone. To do so, follow the below steps:

Open Cydia and install SAM.
Now open SAM and click Revert Lockdown to stock.
Close SAM and connect your iPhone to your computer.
Use an iPhone browser like DiskAid and browse to the /var/root/Library and delete the Lockdown folder there.
Now copy the Lockdown folder you backed up to /var/root/Library. If you used redsn0w to backup Lockdown, you will have the folder in .zip format so unzip it and then copy the Lockdown folder to /var/root/Library/ on your iPhone.
Reboot your iPhone. Open SAM and disable it.
Reboot your iPhone again and you should see signal bar soon.

OK so this is it, the step by step tutorial on how to jailbreak, activate and unlock iPhone on iOS 6.1 while preserving baseband. If you liked this tutorial please take a minute to share it anywhere you can. If you need any help, ask in comments.
