Untethered iOS 4.2.1 Jailbreak for iPod Touch 2G and iPhone 3G with Greenpois0n

If you're one of those people that aren't crazy about updating your device to the latest model, got your device before they were booming, or just have an old iDevice sitting around with nothing to do with it this may be for you. The untethered iOS 4 jailbreak has been around for quite a while and is quite straight forward to execute on the iPod Touch 2nd Generation or iPhone 3G. This also works with pretty much any other device but probably isn't of use as those devices are on higher firmwares by now. So for some people that are anxious to jailbreak their spanking new iPhone, or fairly new model iPod Touch, try your hand at jailbreaking one of your older devices without the worry of slowing it down or messing it up to much, but getting a sense for what its all about. Or maybe you still use your old version iPod Touch 2G, or iPhone and finally decided to jailbreak it.

How to Install iOS 7 Beta 1 (Pre-Release)


Recently, Apple has announced its new firmware for its iDevices: iOS 7! Although it isn't scheduled to come out until the Fall of 2013, the first beta (or test version) of iOS 7 is available for Developers. Normally, in order to install these betas you must purchase a developer account for $99. This is by far the best option for installing iOS 7, but it is costly and therefore not ideal for most people. Luckily, there is a way for non-developers to acquire this update.

Let's take a look at this.

Top 4 Best Free Note Apps for iOS

While the iPhone comes with a 'Notes' app that is quite sufficient in features, it can fall short in a lot of different areas. Although it has the basic features you need to write and save notes, that's basically where its list of features ends. Apple has failed in allowing the notes to be shared on PC or Mac easily without emailing each one tediously, and the stock notes app lacks the ability to record things or freehand draw. Additionally, the user interface is quite basic (although simple) and can leave users yearning for more. So without further ado, here are some free notes apps that may lead to the stock Notes to collect dust...make sure you take some notes on this!
