Electra iOS 11.3.1 Jailbreak Public Release Coming

As Apple is getting closer to launching iOS 12 to the general public, the hacker known as CoolStar is adding the finishing touches to a new iOS 11.3.1 jailbreak. The hacker managed to successful jailbreak iOS 11.3.1, but he still needs to patch some bugs before releasing it for everyone to download. On the bright side of things, CoolStar keeps jailbreak fans updated with the latest news and it looks like the jailbreak tool will arrive sooner than expected.

Electra iOS 11.3.1 Jailbreak

The latest news from CoolStar are showing that the hacker is planning to launch the highly anticipated Electra iOS 11.3.1 Jailbreak straight to public release. This means that there won’t be a beta or developer version of the tool and that jailbreak fans will be able to install a fully functional Cydia right from the start.

Three Copies of the Tool

Currently, there are three copies of Electra iOS 11.3.1. However, CoolStar said that he doesn’t feel like launching the beta and developer versions is worth it and he will only launch the final version. In addition, CoolStar is advising iPhone owners to switch to iOS 11.1.2 until then.

Cydia is Running Successfully

We should also mention that a team member of Electra known as “nullpixel” recently shared a couple of screenshots that showed Cydia running on iOS 11.3.1. The screenshots were accompanied by the following message: “This feels really good! @coolstarorg good work on the bug, @Pwn20wnd great cli to exploit”.

Nullpixel said that the reason why the public version of Electra iOS 11.3.1 is not released already is because the hackers are waiting on a rootFS remount that will be delivered by Jonathan Levin. We don’t know when Jonathan Levin will finish the rootFS remount, but we will keep readers updates as soon as that happens!

Nokia 2 Gets Android 8.1 Oreo Beta with Latest Improvements

HMD Global launched Nokia 2 last year and the smartphone has been quite successful. Nokia 2 is not a high-end smartphone, but it does offer quality hardware specs which are accompanied by an affordable price and this is what makes the smartphone so popular. Nonetheless, Nokia 2 owners should be happy to know that they can get their hands on Google’s latest Android 8.1 Oreo operating system update ahead of everyone else.

Nokia 2 Receives Android 8.1 Oreo Beta

Juho Sarvikas who is the Chief Product Officer of HMD Global announced today that Nokia 2 owners can download Android 8.1 Oreo Beta. This is great news for Nokia 2 owners because it means they can get a better optimized operating system. Even though the new update might be in beta, the final build will start rolling out OTA (over the air) during the upcoming future.

Affordable Smartphone

Nearly every tech company tries to create affordable smartphones that cater to the masses. However, they all pale in comparison with the products that Nokia offers. Nokia 2 is the perfect example of how a smartphone can combine powerful hardware parts with an affordable price. With that said, let’s take a look under Nokia 2’s hood.

Hardware Power

The smartphone is powered by Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 212 CPU. This is a quad-core CPU which clocks at 1.3GHz Cortex-A7. Things get even better than this since Nokia 2’s CPU is paired with an Adreno 304 graphics processing unit and 1GB of RAM. The smartphone features 8GB of internal storage space, but Nokia fans who want more can expand it up to 128GB via a microSD card.

Display Technology

Despite being categorized as an affordable smartphone, Nokia 2 ships with a large 5.0-inches LTPS IPS LCD display which features a pixel resolution of 720 x 1280. Additionally, the display is coated in Corning Gorilla Glass 3 which enhances its resistance.

Android P Beta 2 Safety Along with Google Pixel Devices

Google has made an announcement about the first Android P Developer Preview that was made back in March for the Pixels. The company extended at I/O the beta program to incorporate gadgets from seven outsider producers while rolling out Developer Preview 2.

DP2 was the primary Android P open beta form (with DP1 that was thought about to be the alpha form), and recently Google rolled out DP3, which is the second beta form. DP3 is a critical built, as it incorporates the last APIs and the SDK for designers to start similarity testing and make the most out of new highlights from Android P. Designers can likewise begin pushing out applications that are targeted for Android P to gadgets that are enrolled in the beta.

DP3 includes a lot of instruments for developers to begin building applications for Android P, and there’s bounty to like in case you’re merely hoping to experiment with Android P before it goes official in the not so distant future. The main beta form was outstanding for exactly how stable it was (thinking of it as it was a developer review), and DP3 expands on that by resolving waiting bugs from past builds.

About our experience

We’ve been utilizing the Beta 2 build on a first-gen Pixel for the vast majority of this current week, and we haven’t experienced any show-ceasing bugs. However, we couldn’t pair Bluetooth extras with Beta 1, but we had zero issues on that front with Beta 2. All things considered, there were a couple of cases where the volume got to 100% when we connected our MDR-1000X.

We haven’t confronted any issues with calls or messages either, yet it would appear that there’s a progressing issue with instant messages on Verizon. Third-party app behavior has likewise been fundamentally enhanced, and beside Alexa, we haven’t seen any application to crash. We’ve even seen a slight increment in battery life from Oreo because of the AI-helped battery administration changes.

Facebook 177.0.0.45.105 Download Available – Improving Stability One Bug Fix at A Time

Facebook is such a huge social media platform that it needs no introduction. Everyone knows what Facebook is and this speaks volumes about the quality of its services. Nonetheless, the reason why Facebook is making headlines today is because a brand-new APK which sports the “177.0.0.45.105 beta” version number has been released and today we are going to go over what features it contains.

Facebook 177.0.0.45.105 Beta APK

The first thing we need to mention about the new update is that it was released in the form of APK. In case you didn’t know, APK stands for “Android Package Kit” and as we can tell from the name, the new update is exclusive to Android users.

The reason why app developers release APK versions of their updates before launching them to the general public is because they want beta testers to see if any issues or malfunctions pop up. However, this doesn’t usually happen and beta testers just get to see what the new features do ahead of everyone else.

Improved Stability and Performance

Considering the fact that Facebook has over 2.19 billion active users, the developers are under constant pressure to make sure that the app runs without issues. No one likes app using apps that lag or randomly crash and Facebook’s developers guarantee that never happens by constantly releasing software tweaks and bug fixes.

Software Tweaks and Bug Fixes

Even though the new APK update doesn’t come with any groundbreaking features, it does introduce a handful of software tweaks and bug fixes that improve Facebook’s overall stability and performance. Furthermore, the new APK is currently available for beta testers. We should note that becoming a Facebook beta tester doesn’t require anything else than an Android smartphone and creating a special account on the Facebook Beta Program page.
