Apple immediately withdrew the update after Wednesday's launch of the iOS 8 software update. Many users find that after installing the update, mobile phone is common with no signal. And there is a user complaints of the upgrading the fingerprint identification Touch ID function can not be used.
Apple Corp said they have received feedback on the iOS 8 operating system software update. "We are investigating these feedback actively. At the same time we will withdraw the iOS 8 upgrade version."

The analysis data of the company Crittercism shows that iOS 8 lead to the risk the application flash back to approximately 3.3%, and 67% higher than last year's edition.

For iPhone 6, Count Official Version Changes of iOS 8

Serious spoilers previously, has made the Apple conference suspense od 2014 is greatly reduced. Although the two new products iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus makes the iron powder excited, it is let people lost too many fresh for too much exposure before. But, as iPhone 6/Plus and the modified iOS version 8 compared to before, the test version still has a lot of bright spots to follow.



 Prior to this, some people have to worry about more large screen iPhone will make the application manifest not completely. There will be from iPhone 4 to iPhone 5 as the black box years ago . However, this time apple is very clever. While iPhone 6 screen 1334x750 pixels and rate of iPhone 6 Plus screen for 1920x1080. The screen width height ratio was 16:9 of two of the new iPhone, and the generation of iPhone 5/5s is consistent. So there is no need to worry about the larger screen higher resolution rate bring the visual effect.



It is worth mentioning that, due to the increased screen resolution, especially to 1080p display level iPhone 6 Plus, the official version of iOS 8 will add the operation mode of a cross screen operation for the large screen iPhone. This point is similar to the iPad tablet.



In this new mode of operation, iPhone can be like a tablet that adds a sidebar on the left or right side of the screen. It is convenient for users to obtain two level menu. This is the conference we see about the official version of iOS 8's first big change.

Exercise App upgrade +VoLTE
The second change is that M8 motion sensing processor in coordination with the iPhone 6 new built-in. The officials cliam that is to build a new fitness applications. Application of Nike and related fitness will greatly upgrade and add the altimeter function. In simple terms, M8 new processor not only can help the user to record the step number and distance, but also can more accurately calculate the relative height. This is after the beta version of iOS 8 we did not relate to something.



Furthermore, it is about third party input method of the topic, that the function of a point of concern for people. Since the opening of the third party input method permissions on WWDC2014 news has been published, so many domestic input method team had already begun to prepare for a wildly beating gongs and drums. So far, according to this understanding, several well-known brand input method open business has made an application to the App Store. As for when we can formally to download the update iOS 8 that day, whether it can be installed in a timely manner, that is about to see Apple rhythm.

Of course, we are temporarily unable to see the third party input method jailbreak state in many Beta version of iOS 8. So just have to put the function point included in it. Next, I want to talk about is about iOS 8 VoLTE networks to support voice function.



Literally, VoLTE (Voice over LTE) HD codec technology can get rid of 2G/3G net, all service carrying on the LTE network, can realize the unified data and voice service on the same network.



New ISightApple Pay
In addition, iPhone 6 can shoot more photos and video of bovine X benefited from the new iSight camera. According to official data representation, iPhone 6 can take 30 or 60 frame, slow motion of 240fps 1080p video. At the same time, continuous auto focus technology photograph will make iPhone 6 enhances the performance. All this is in the old section of iPhone iOS 8 beta that we are unable to realize.



The New iSight can Shoot 30 or 60 Frame, Slow Motion of 240fps 1080p Video
Next we will say is that the new iMessage, although WWDC2014 and test version of iOS 8 we can already feel the convenience of evolution after iMessage. In fact, in the official version of iOS 8, the lower right corner of the SMS interface added shortcut keyboard. In this way, the user can be easy to complete the text, voice, picture and even location sharing.



The New iMessage Concern
Here, maybe you didn't find the official version of iOS 8. In fact, for the new payment Apple Pay makes iOS 8 more perfect. In the conference site, the relevant responsible person mention that the contemporary people brush bank card pay behavior is weak, and Apple will subvert the traditional and backward mode of payment.



The New Concept of Apple Pay Mobile Payment
The so-called "Apple Pay", is NFC (near field communications) and Touch ID (fingerprint identification) combination. It is simple to pay the operating process , the user with a touch function with the NFC iPhone about the scanning collection platform of businesses, in confirmation of payment according to the time of a fingerprint to get. Unfortunately, this service was limited to parts American.



NFC (Near Field Communication) +Touch ID (Fingerprint Identification)
Maybe Cook in the previous WWDC2014 conferences on too many details of iOS 8, so that the conference just spent a few minutes to skips iOS 8. But the good news is that, the official version of iOS 8 will be on the listing of the new machine before the September 17th to download. That is to say, in less than 1 weeks, we can put the official version of iOS 8 of income in the capsule.



The Official Version of iOS 8 will Open  Download on this Month on 17th
But I need to remind you is that people previously upgraded the test version of iOS 8s for formal version of the iOS 8 update to OTA way, can only be carried out through the official download the latest firmware upgrade by iTunes way, also hope people a lot of attention.

Now iPhone 6 is comming, do you consider to switch your phone to it? When change a new phone from an old one, data transmission may be a problem. You can refer this guide to transfer content between samrtphone.

iPhone 6 VS Samsung Galaxy Note 4:Specs Comparison of the Two Coming Smartphone

iPhone 6 and Samsung Galaxy Note 4 are on their way. It is expected that Apple will unveil the new generation of iPhone on September 9th, which means you can buy it in stores by September 19th; and Note 4 is likely to be released on September 3rd, which means it will hit store around September 25th. (Some also say that the Galaxy phone is going to be unveiled from September 5th to 10th in Berlin.)

For many Apple and Android fans, this is really a big thing. Have you ever considered which one is better, iPhone 6 or Samsung Galaxy Note 4. Although, so far, all we heard are just gossips. But, still, we are able to compare the iPhone 6 and Samsung Galaxy Note 4 based on what we know.

Processor and OS: Note 4 may come with the new octa-core Exynos 5433 chip or a Snapdragon 805; while the rumored A8 processor is going to be contained by iPhone 6. As for OS's, Samsung is likely to use Android 4.5 for Note 4. And, as iOS 8 was released at Apple's WWDC conference, it is highly possible that iPhone 6 will base on it.



Screen: Note 4 will have a QHD or 2K pixel based display while iPhone 6 will hold a 2K resolution based screen which is protected by Sapphire glass. iPhone 6 could have 4.7-inch and 5.5-inch displays for different consumers. (Likewise, the Galaxy phone is said to have a curved-display option and a model with a flat AMOLED display.) And Note 4 has a 5.7-inch screen.




Fingerprint Sensor: It is undoubtedly that iPhone 6 will be equipped with fingerprint scanner. Also, the same sensor is likely to be contained by Note 4.

Camera: There is still chance that the camera of iPhone 6 will change to 10 megapixels with EIS (electronic image stabilization). And Note 4 may have a Primary rear Camera of 16 - 20 megapixels.

Price: As usual, the price of iPhone 6 is expected to be between $199.99 and $299.99 with a two year contract; and Note 4 sells for $730. (It will be no more than $800,to be sure.)

Others:
iPhone 6 will have storage of 128 GB (Or, Apple may offer three variants of 16 GB, 32 GB, and 64 GB.), a NFC chip (near-field communication connectivity), wireless charging feature and heart rate EarPods. The Samsung handset offers 4G LTE connectivity, wireless charging support and expandable storage.

So, which one do you like better? Hope you will have what you expected when the events come.

iPhone Rumors: Features, Specs, Price and Release Date of iPhone 6

We all know the approaching iPhone 6 and the great Sep. 9 event. It is a rough time waiting for it, with rumors everywhere. Many people even "unveiled" the appearance and the specs of the new iPhone online. I think that you must have heard some rumors about this "iPhone 6" (I am not even sure whether this is its name.) and see some parts of the device. They may be true or may not. Anyway, I collected some of them. And it is up to you to judge which is correct.


Rumor No.1: Appearance

Scratch-proof Screen

There are a lot of information about the materials of the display, which includes the rumored sapphire glass and the commonly use Gorilla Glass 3. It is reported that Foxconn has produced around 100 iPhone 6 screen of sapphire glass. The material has been used for the camera of iPhone 5 and the Home button. So, I think this may be true.

Bigger Screen for iPhone 6
For the size of the screen, there are two possibilities—4.7 inch and 5.5 inch. Obviously, this may be true because of the great demand for larger handsets. Apple, I believe, will not turn a blind eye to it. By the way, some even mentioned that the upcoming iPhone 6 will be transparent. (Well, not likely, I'd say.)

Lighter and Thinner
It is a trend for SmartPhones to be lighter and thinner. And undoubtedly we are looking forward to seeing the same thing happens to the next generation of iPhone. But, I think, a 5% reduction on the volume is quite nice, considering the fact the iPad Air is just 20% thinner than the last generation.

Better Looking
iPhone 4 and 4s have long been considered as good looking, thanks to Jobs and his group. However, the shape has not been change greatly for iPhone 5 and 5s. (Actually, it is just stretched a little bit, many may think.) So, after that, would Apple have ideas for the appearance? Let's wait and see.


Rumor No.2: Specs of iPhone 6

Greater Performance
The Apple processor has been improved along with the launch of a new product. We can expect that the new handset will feature the "A8" processor. Some report says that different processors will be installed on phones of different sizes. It is quite nice for consumers to choose among those devices based on their needs. By the way, according to Wall Street Journal, TSMC and Samsung will schedule the production of it.

8 Megapixels Still
To be honest, the 8-megapixel camera of iPhone is much better than some with the so-called 13 megapixels. Sometimes, it is about the software that controls the image quality. Richard Topliss has joined Apple and it is suggested that Lytro technology will be implemented in the iPhone 6.

An Increase of Battery Capacity
If the rumor about larger screen is true, a bigger battery is needed. Based on some report, it is expected of Apple to provide one range from 1800 mAh to 1900 mAh. And a 2500 mAh battery is likely to be contained by the iPhone 6 phablet.

Rumor No.3: The Prices of the new iPhone
The price is likely to be between $199.99 and $299.99 with a mobile carrier contract. And the estimated off-contract price will be $600.  If you are going to buy it from the Apple retailer, the value may be near $650. As for the bigger-size phablet, it would be round $700.

Rumor No.4: Release Date of iPhone 6

The new device is expected to be released in September, as gossip assessed it.

That is all. It is not important whether they are correct or not. Wait for launch event and the answer will unveil itself. If you want to know more about iPhone 6, check out the other articles.
