iPhone 11 and XR Available with New Multi-Angle Face ID Sensor and Improved Specs

Mark Gurman and Debby Wu from Bloomberg have talked about their expectations with regards to Apple’s fall lineup. They revealed many details, and have also mentioned rumors about the upcoming iPhones, iPads, Apple Watches, Macs, and AirPods.

Reports have shown that the rumored triple-lens rear camera system on the newer models will come with a larger field of view. This will help you in capturing ultra-wide-angle photos and videos. It will also improve low-light photos. They are also expecting the appearance of some editing tools while recording videos.

The high-end iPhones are supposed to look like the current models. However, we have heard that the colors from the back will come matte. The phones should also survive after a drop, because of new shatter-resistance technology.

The report also talks about a new multi-angle Face ID sensor. Apparently, it will catch a wider field, and will allow users to unlock their devices more accessible. For example, your phone is lying on a table. You can unlock your phone without moving it from there.

Some other features include water resistance and faster A13 processors. There will also be a new co-processor, which, internally, is known as AMX or matrix.

When it comes to the new iPhone XR, rumors say that it will come with a dual-lens rear camera and a new green color option.

When it comes to the iPad, we have heard that both the 11-inch and 12.9-inch iPad Pro will come with updates by the end of the year, with improved cameras and faster processors. Apparently, there is also a 10.2-inch iPad launching later this year

When it comes to Apple Watch, the changes will happen for watchOS 6. Just last week, Filipe Espósito has found new titanium and ceramic 40mm and 44mm Apple Watch models, which were based on some hidden assets from the watchOS six betas.

iPhone 11 Leaks Revealed The Awkward Design Of Upcoming iPhone 2019 Models

Everyone is excited about the release of the new iPhone 2019 models this fall. Since many could not contain their impatience, iPhone 11 leaks started to emerge online.

Using the leaked schematics and renders, Ben Geskin, who is a famous tech designer, built physical models of the new iPhone 2019 models, namely, iPhone 11 and 11 Max.

After posting the results on Twitter, the alleged design of Apple’s new smartphones did not receive many good comments. The majority of fans declared themselves disappointed of the ugly appearance of the new iPhones. The highest ranked responses under Geskin’s post were “Horrible design… it looks soo awkward” and “Steve Jobs would’ve fired everyone.”

iPhone 11 Leaks Revealed The Awkward Design Of Upcoming iPhone 2019 Models

The main problem of the new design is the new camera hump, containing the triple camera arrangement. The response to the design is ironic since the primary source of hatred towards the new models is most likely to be the headline upgrade of the iPhone 11. Some say that the design looks so awful because the camera setup is so close to the Apple logo and almost touching the central vertical line.

The new iPhone models will feature substantial sensor upgrades, which could place them to the top of the smartphone camera charts. Other updates include a big battery boost, which is expected to receive a positive response from users. Apple’s new iPhones will not cover the 3D touch technology, which means their haptic experience will be inferior to every iPhone since the 6S. Even more, notches will still be present on the new models.

With these being said, we believe these leaks should not be taken very seriously. This may not be the final design of the new iPhone models. After all, we can’t be sure of anything until Apple makes an official announcement.

How to Fix Common Cydia Problems with Electra iOS 11.3.1 Jailbreak

This tutorial will show you how to fix common Cydia problems with the Electra Jailbreak on iOS 11.3.1.

Basically, when you notice a blanked out screen (with a spinner-shaped icon at the edge of the screen) after Electra’s UI has reached the second or third (final) stage, it means that the jailbreak operation was successful.

However, more often than not, users have encountered various forms of problems while running jailbreak with Electra, most notably the issues of “Cydia not showing up” and “Cydia crashing” during or after jailbreak.

To fix this, go to the next section.

Fix: Common Cydia Problems with Electra iOS 11.3.1 Jailbreak

Fix 1: Run UICache

This is the basic troubleshooting method often employed to fix this error, if and when Cydia fails to show up during/after a jailbreak operation (with Electra).

To run UICache on your iOS smartphone/tablet, follow the guidelines below:

  1. Obtain device’s Wi-Fi IP

Here’s how to do this:

  • Go to Settings > Wi-Fi
  • Click on the ‘blue icon’ beside the ‘wireless network icon’.
  • Copy and paste the displayed IP in a safe location.
  1. Root your device in SSH

Here’s how to do this:

  • Go to your Mac
  • Open Applications/Utility > Terminal Application.
  • Type: “ssh root@<copied IP Address>”.
  • In the prompted window, input “yes” and press Enter.
  • Input the root password – “alpine” – and press Enter.
  • Once this done, your iPhone/iPad has become rooted; you can now proceed and run uicache.
  1. Run UICache
  • Simply type “uicache” in the designated panel and click Enter, and
  • Cydia should pop up on your smartphone or tablet in a couple of seconds.
  1. Hard reboot device

If Cydia still won’t come up, you can hard reboot your iOS device and see if it resolves the issue.

Fix 2: Resolve Crashing Cydia

If Cydia crashes after a jailbreak operation (using Electra), the issue is probably because your device is not in a jailbroken state.

To fix this, do the following:

  • Open Electra on your iPhone/iPad.
  • Check for the option – Enable Jailbreak. If you see Share Electra instead, it means your device is already in a ‘jailbroken’ state.
  • Tap on the Enable Jailbreak option
  • Repeat until device goes into ‘jailbroken’ state.

Note: You’d need to re-enable jailbreak (via Electra) each time you restart you device.
