With iOS 12, Apple will introduce a USB protection that will make it harder for companies like Grayshift to crack an iOS device. This has once again officially confirmed Apple yesterday . It seems, however, the cat and mouse game goes into the next round, since Grayshift has already indicated that you could already bypass the USB protection in iOS 12.
Grayshift: "We have already bypassed iOS 12 USB protection"
With iOS 12, Apple implements a new security feature that makes it harder to crack the device. If the protection is activated in the settings, the USB function of the Lightning port is automatically deactivated after one hour, if the device has not been unlocked with the passcode, Face ID or Touch ID in the meantime.
In this way Apple wants to fend off Hackingmaßnahmen by boxes such as the GrayKey box. Security authorities who want to crack an iPhone, therefore, would have only one hour after the last unlocking of the device time to perform an appropriate hacking action.
Grayshift claims now in an e-mail correspondence that the company has already managed to circumvent the new USB protection of iOS 12. If the claim is true, a Brute Force attack on an iPhone could be possible on iOS 12 even if the USB protection is active and the device has not been unlocked for more than an hour.
bypass the USB protection in iOS 12.
From the outside it is difficult to assess whether Apple has fully implemented the USB protection with the iOS 12 Beta 1 , and whether Grayshift has actually found a way to circumvent this. In the coming months we will receive the answers. It is clear that Grayshift will do everything to continue to sell the 15,000-USD GrayKey boxes. (via motherboard )
After the last update of iOS 11, there were not very pleasant impressions. That's because Apple has added very few new chips to its mobile OS. The coolest changes came on the iPad, but the owners of the iPhone is not very pleased.
iOS 12 should rehabilitate the situation and bring to everyone without exception many new features. And of course the updated interface design. Also, no one has waited for the night mode, so all apple users will wait for him in the "twelfth". Let's have a brief overview of iOS 12, what's new for us in the updated operating system?
Design by iOS 12
A major redesign in iOS 12 should not be expected, because Apple considers its "flat" style relevant and modern. Most likely, some elements of the interface in iOS 12, such as the Control Center, the Notification Center, the type of notifications and for anything else, will undergo a change.
Control Center
The control center changes in design quite often. The first was an experimental solution. The second (iOS 10) became more beautiful and bought new buttons. The third (iOS 11) cardinally changed, got a new look and a bunch of new controls and, most importantly, it became possible to customize your settings.
What will iOS 12 do with the Control Center? Honestly, the design of this center in iOS 11 is not the best, as for me the previous one was more beautiful and more comfortable. Apple has to do something about it. Design should be slightly tweaked. Do it guys from Cupertino are not known, but one thing is clear - in the Control Center there will be more different settings that you can add to it. For example, I would like to see the same GPS tumbler there.
Notification Center
Here we are waiting for grouped notifications. If, for example, several notifications come from the same application, then they must be combined. The screenshot shows how it should look. This way you can sort out all the notifications a little and make the overall view of the notification center easier.
This can look like new widgets and a new style of notifications in iOS 12
Dark theme of the design
Almost half of the Internet was expecting a black theme for registration in iOS 11, but Apple did not show it to us. iOS 11, still white as snow. But, perhaps, already, in iOS 12 there will be a dark theme of registration. At least, I would like to. The screenshots show the concept of iOS 12 in a dark version.
IOS 12 may show a dark theme
Wiser Siri
From year to year, Siri clears his eyes. However, this happens in very small steps. And in the era of fast-paced technology, Apple, it's time to significantly update your voice assistant with elements of artificial intelligence. Every year, with the release of a new version of iOS, Siri does not develop much. In iOS 12 we are waiting for Siri to step forward.
Speed and power consumption iOS 12
Every year, Apple is improving and optimizing iOS, so that the speed of each new version is growing, and power consumption is falling. What always extols iOS over other mobile operating systems. Of course, when it comes to speed, it's about the more recent iPhone and iPad models. If you roll iOS 12 on an old iPhone 5S, then most likely that it will not work better than in its time on iOS 7.
Which devices will support iOS 12
What devices will go to iOS 12? Will iOS 12 support older devices, such as iPhone 5S, iPad mini 2, iPad 4 and other earlier iGadgets. Introducing the list of devices for which the new iOS 12 will go:
iPhone
iPhone 7S
iPhone 7
iPhone SE
iPhone 6S, 6S Plus
iPhone 6, 6 Plus
iPhone 5S
iPad
iPad Pro 12.9 "
iPad Pro 10.5 "
iPad Pro 9.7 "
iPad 2017
iPad Air 2
iPad Air
iPad mini 4
iPad mini 3
iPad mini 2
iPod
iPod Touch 6 gen
Will iOS 12 go on iPhone 4S, iPhone 5 and iPhone 5C
Definitely iOS 12 will not go on iPhone 4S, iPhone 5 and iPhone 5C. At least from those considerations with which the past iOS 11, already, did not support them. iPhone 4S, iPhone 5 and iPhone 5C, have already been "taken out of the game" and more will not come on them updates. Why is that? Because Apple displays gradually old gadgets that are not equipped with 64-bit processors (processors of the new generation). It turns out that the oldest iPhone, which will support the "twelfth" will be the iPhone 5S.
Will iOS 12 on iPhone 5S and on iPhone 6
100% will go to iOS 12 on the iPhone 5S, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus, iPhone 6S, iPhone 6S Plus, iPhone SE. Because, it's all fresh with modern stuffing iPhones and they still have to be in the game for a long time. Moreover, 64-bit processors are installed in them. Accordingly, the new iPhone 7 and iPhone 7S will also be quietly updated for the "twelfth".
Will iOS 12 on iPad mini and on iPad 4
iPad mini of the first generation did not already support the "top ten" and "eleven", so I hope that it will not support iOS 12. But iPad mini 2 Retina display will support iOS 12. And all models that are younger will also support the update. iPad 4, too, will stop supporting fresh updates, because it has the old "hardware", by the way, almost the same as the iPhone 5, so iPad 4 will not support iOS 12! Air'y and Pro'shki will naturally support IOS 12, because, this is the most advanced and modern tablets to date.
Will iOS 12 on iPod Touch 6 gen
iPod Touch 6 gen will support iOS 12, as it is considered a fresh device with modern iron from the category iPod. This is the only Apple player in the lineup and it will still take updates until Apple itself slicks it off the shelves.+
When will iOS 12
The release date for iOS 12 is the first week of June 2018. Apple will present iOS 12 at the WWDC developer conference in early June 2018. As always, at the same time, Apple will present its operating systems in the summer in early June. And in 2018 there will be no exception. However, the release of the full version of iOS 12 will take place in September 2018.
In June, Apple shows a new OS, then a whole summer finalizes releasing beta versions and in September, iOS 12 will be available for upgrade on all supported devices.
Download iOS 12 beta
After the presentation of iOS 12 in June, Apple will have a whole summer to release a beta version of the operating system, both for developers and for public testing. Usually, beta versions are released immediately after the presentation. Therefore, when iOS 12 is presented, then immediately, you can download iOS 12 beta 1 to your iPhone or iPad. When beta 1 appears, I will give here a link to it to download. Install iOS 12 beta 1 is very simple, just a couple of tapes. Also, you can see the review of iOS 12 beta 1 here on the site so that you can evaluate whether you need to take risks and put a raw version of the operating system. Because usually, all the first beta versions of the new released iOS are always distinguished by serious bugs, such as crashes from applications, fast battery discharge, inhibited device operation, etc.
IOS 12 Wallpapers
Download wallpaper iOS 12 will be available after the presentation, when it will be known what exactly the wallpaper will be. Right here, iPodium will lay out real wallpaper iOS 12 for free download, for all iPhone models. It remains only to wait for the presentation of iOS 12.
But judging by everything, maybe, it will be depicted, something connected with water or with the sky, because almost every version of iOS on the wallpaper had water, from which it follows that Apple loves the waves and the sea. And on the other hand, the fourth consecutive year of the wave, it's not in the style of Apple. Most likely, they can move to the sky. Earlier in iOS 7 and iOS 8 there was a starry sky, there is a possibility that Apple will want to experiment with the clouds.
For now.All that can be predicted for sure, what to expect from iOS 12 in 2018. As leaks and new information, we will adjust the article and add new ones to a special section of iOS 12. Do not forget to follow the news to be aware of. Write in your comments your thoughts and huge thanks to those who share an article in their social network :)
LiberiOSThe iOS 11 jailbreak is finally available, after weeks of shortages and a fabulous hope since the discovery of fault in iOS 11.1.2 by Google. A few days ago, Masri proposed a jailbreak tool for developers while announcing a consumer version by Morpheus (Jonathan Levin). It is now done with LiberiOS which is the tool to jailbreak iOS 11 until iOS 11.1.2.
After H3lix for 32-bit devices under iOS 10.3.3 and LiberTV for TvOS 11 , here is the third Christmas jailbreak 2017. A madness! Based on To.Panga , LiberiOS obviously uses the security holes unveiled by Ian Beer from Google. For the record, Apple has plugged the flaw since iOS 11.2. Attention, LiberiOS does not include Cydia because it is not yet compatible but Saurik works there . In addition, Jonathan Levin said that an update will correct this.

HOW TO JAILBREAK IOS 11, EVEN ON IPHONE 8 AND IPHONE X
Here's how to jailbreak iOS 11 on iPhone X, iPhone 8, iPhone 7, iPad Pro, iPad Air 2 and others:
Enter your Apple ID (email) and password to generate a certificate for installation. If you have an Apple Developer Account, your certificate will be valid for 1 year, if not 7 days. Once you have access to Cydia.
After installation, accept the certificate by going to Settings> General> Profile Management and make "trust".
Open LiberiOS on your iPhone / iPad and launch the jailbreak!
While waiting for the beta 2 of LiberiOS, you have an open device with full access to the entire system including SSH.
Apple is stopping signing previous versions of iOS so that users will not be able to return to their old versions a few weeks after each new iOS update . Apple follows a policy this way with the most recent version being the safest and stable version.
However, there are also users who want to jailbreak by turning over old versions of the user . For this reason, Apple is completely shutting down. It's an interesting situation for the iPhone 6s to just block the return to iOS 11 and leave an open door for iOS 10.3.3.
Apple has probably stopped signing iOS 11 due to a serious battery problem in iOS 11 and has continued to sign iOS 10.3.3 . However, the battery issue applies to all iPhones. 70% of users upgrading their devices to iOS 11 are experiencing serious battery problems.
If you are an iPhone 6s user and want to return to iOS 10.3.3 , you can do the return process by using the following text before stopping Apple signing. Do not forget to take a backup before proceeding.
Using a Chrome web browser, for example ,on a big screen smartphone can be a difficult task, especially if you try it with one hand. The biggest problem of all is to access the address bar, which is available by default at the top in Chrome. Fortunately, Google understands the problems that users face and provided a native way to push the address bar at the bottom of your screen. While the feature was available in the Dev and Canary channels, it finally made its way to the stable version of Google Chrome. So if you're looking to activate this feature on your devices, read on, as we show you how to move the Google Chrome address bar to the bottom of your screen.
Note : I tried the following method on my LG Nexus 5X under AndroidOreo 8.0.0 as well as on my Moto X Play on Android Nougat 7.1.2 and the method worked well on both.
To get started, open Chrome on your Android device and enter the following path in the address bar:
chrome: // flags
The Chrome flags page should now be open. Now press the 3-point menu button in the upper-right corner and select "Find in Page" . From there, search for "Chrome Home" .
In the Chrome Home section, click "Default" . A drop-down menu should appear . From the list of options, select "Enabled" .
Once you have done this, you will be prompted to restart the browser. Press "Relaunch Now" to restart Google Chrome.
And that's all. Your address bar should now be at the bottom of your screen.
Note : In some cases, changes may not occur when the application is restarted. In this case, force to stop the application and restart it should do the trick.
