iOS 12 Jailbreak by Luca Todesco Ready with Confirmation on iPhone XS Max

After Apple releases a new version of its iOS, there are always people that expect something else to happen soon. We are talking about people in the jailbreak community and until now they have been waiting for an iOS 12 jailbreak. They waited patiently ever since Apple started beta tests on the software.

What did they look for?

In order for iPhones and iPads to be jailbreaked, developers have to find some exploits. They achieved this through Luca Todesco, a developer renowned for jailbreaking, managing to jailbreak the iOS 12 on an iPhone XS Max. It is especially impressive since this model comes with the A12 Bionic chipset that added extra security measures.

Overcoming restrictions

Luca Todesco tweeted last month that he ‘pwned’ the software, even claiming that he did it from the first try without having to alter the code from his earlier project. This translates into Apple not making any major changes to iOS 12 compared to the beta version.

To support his claim, Todesco also released a video. At the time he said that we have to wait a few weeks for him to share the full details.

Confirmation

Todesco used Twitter again to confirm the reality of the jailbreak. For this, he used his own iPhone XS Max that ran iOS 12. The beta exploit was still relevant on the final build and by doing the jailbreak, he validated the lack of hardware restrictions that were supposed to prevent him from liberating the device.

Besides jailbreaking the phone, Todesco also restored the stock version of iOS 12. He still uses the XS Max, describing it as a ‘damn fine piece of hardware’. He neither confirmed nor denied that he would release the jailbreak to the public. We just have to wait and see.

The Ubisoft Montreal released this year on March 27 their latest upgrade of the game Far Cry 5.

The arcade mode from Far Cry 5 game allows players to custom up the maps they build and the maps can also be outside the wilds of Montana. Players can set the maps at the edge of City 17. The Lost Coast map is made up and design as the original Half-Life 2 level.  You can still find Far Cry items and enemies since it is not recreated exactly as the classic one.

The coolest vehicle from Far Cry 4 was the Gyrocopter; a powered ride that helped players to go above Pagin Min’s oppressed Kyrat. In Far Cry 5, this concept is taken further, allowing players to get on helicopters and planes to have a better transportation.

It also adds a new feature of sophisticated fishing simulation which can be used for trade in the game and it can influence the economy, challenges and missions.

Best Features Which Turn a Company Into a Good Web Host

Your website is very important for your business. It presents your company online and the people’s first impression is highly influenced by what they see here. In this case, a professional look is crucial and your host has to keep up with all the requirements imposed by online marketing rules.

Your provider has to make sure that the website is available 24/7 and that customers see what your business has to offer. Considering this, is not easy to choose a good web hosting company, especially when there are so many options. The offer is so diverse that it can be confusing.

You can make the right choice if you know what to look for

A hosting provider should be chosen based on important criteria – can the company prioritize your business? How can they return value? The answer to these questions should be the following factors: affordability, security, non-stop accessibility, good customer and technical support and speed.

When you start analysing these elements, you figure out that it’s up to you to find a good web host. Before you decide, do your homework and look for more information on each of the hosting providers you consider suitable. Here are a few tips to help you in this quest:

  • Your business needs a reliable host provider

Like we mentioned before, your website has to be accessible anytime, anywhere. A reliable host will be very careful with uptime record. You can ask to see their records if you want a full picture. You can choose a host provider which has a 99.9% uptime percentage.

  • Consider affordability and compare it with added value

Like in every other case, price is an important element in choosing a host provider. You can consider that the price is affordable when it’s not too high and not very low. Also, compare the price with the offer and uptime charts. Don’t rush into making a choice until you check several offers.

Be careful with free web hosts, because they can give you low-quality services. The same can happen when you choose hosts which charge less than $1. If you want an estimate, basic plans should cost somewhere between $2-9.

  • Control Panel should be easy to use

Every person who has a website should be able to handle simple operations like installing WordPress, setting up emails and others. It becomes easier when your provider uses Plesk or cPanel. In this case, you could modify and update your content fast and without unwanted complications.

  • Make sure that your host has strong Customer Supports services

Not everyone is an expert in handling a website. Problems or technical issues might appear anytime, so you should have the possibility to receive support anytime. Make sure that customer service is accessible on every channel – chat, email or phone, because you have to have several options in case your system collapses. It is recommendable to avoid companies which externalize their customer service.

  • Check the provider’s hardware and infrastructure before making a choice

Start a thorough research and see if the hosting provider’s infrastructure can cope with your website’s specifications. It’s in your best interest if your provider uses new gear and hardware. You can ask them; they should be transparent and give an honest answer.

  • Don’t forget about email features

Emails are crucial for communication between parties. Your host should give you security solutions for preventing issues like spam threats. Also, you should have the freedom to administrate the website’s email address.

Last, but not least, you should choose a web host provider which is flexible and open to improvements. Communication and trust are the key to a successful collaboration.

The New iOS Software Will Overcome The Previous One – Downgrade Became Impossible

After the release of the latest version iOS 12.0, Apple made it impossible for users to downgrade back to iOS 12 version due to the issues that came with it. By applying this policy, the Apple Company is limiting the access to iOS 12.0.1.

The iOS 12 version of software came out in September and had a pretty bad feedback from the Apple users. There were battery life problems, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity, the iMesagges were sent to wrong contacts and so one. Also when it come to latest devices, iPhone XS and XS Max there were reported hardware and communication issues, the handsets would automatically connect to Wi-Fi network at 2.4GHz and not to 5GHz like is supposed to do. Some iPhone devices would not even charge when they were connected with a lightning cable.

These are some of the reasons why Apple launched iOS 12.0.1; to fix the bugs.

Apple policy of blocking the possibility to go back at the previous version of software is a bold move. This strategy prevents users from experience others issues and have the device always up to date and with better running software.

After Apple gave the fifth beta version of iOS 12.1out for tests and evaluation, the code singing stoppage was available in short time. The release will be this week and it will come with an update support for Group Facetime and a new collection of emoji. The new version will give you a better experience on your device: Life Balance features, Memoji, Siri will have better integration and the ability to search multiple terms at once, Do Not Disturb is extended to Do Not Disturb at Bedtime, and a new feature Screen Time shows users how much time they use each app and they can limit their own time.

Grand Theft Auto 5 – Rockstar Fixes the Getting Killed in Single Player Mode Issue

Many Grand Theft Auto 5 players were complaining that an exploit would allow modders to kick or kill other players. They could do that in either the single player or the multiplayer mode which got numerous players annoyed.

According to FriendlyBaron, a Reddit user, the PC exploit was enabled due to an error in the new menu. It would show users’ Rockstar Social Club ID numbers of other fellow players. Using certain tricks and tool, players could use that information to change the game of another one’s including killing them whenever they wanted. The fact that they were not with the certain player would not stop them.

While playing Grand Theft Auto 5 and streaming on Twitch, FriendlyBaron was hit by the exploit. His character left the vehicle they were driving and instantly died with no in-game reasoning. While writing his explanation post, he mentioned that he was harassed earlier in the week by the person who did that to his game.

Finally, with all the proofs they needed, Rockstar has already patched the exploit, and now PC players will no longer have their Grand Theft Auto 5 gaming experienced bothered or even ruined either in multiplayer or single player mode. At least…not from outside the game.

Another interesting fact about what is happening in Grand Theft Auto 5 is that people are developing cheating codes. Two Australian homes were searched as part of an investigation regarding the distribution of the cheat called “Infamous.” This cheat would let users copy objects, increase their wealth, and get unlimited ammunition along with many other benefits. However, the investigation is still running as it is not easy to identify the developers of the cheat code.
