How To Turn Your Old iPhone Into A Cute Minimalistic Feature Phone? Dr Mobiles Limited, Auckland, New Zealand, #iphonexrepair, @davidlim

How To Turn Your Old iPhone Into A Cute Minimalistic Feature Phone?

If you still own an iPhone 4, chances are it's sitting in a drawer somewhere gathering dust. You've probably thought about throwing it out, but now there's finally something useful you can do with your old smartphone instead: turn it into a feature phone.

That's what one Reddit user did before sharing a picture of their simplified iPhone 4. After the photo shot up to the front page of Reddit, they offered a full step-by-step guide, which involves jailbreaking the phone, redesigning the home screen, and disabling a ton of software features.

It takes a little work to setup, but it's the perfect solution if you need a basic backup phone or you have a grandparent who's uncomfortable with technology but wants to stay in touch.

Unforgettable Inspirational Jim Rohn Quotes to Bear in mind. Famous, Auckland, iPhone Repair Unlock Dr Mobiles Limited

jim-rohn-quotes
Widely known as one of the most influential thought leaders of the time, Jim Rohn honed his craft in helping people shape their life strategies and imagination of what was possible for over 40 years. He is also the author of countless books, audios, and video programs and possessed a unique ability to bring extraordinary insights to ordinary principles and events.
Although Jim Rohn passed away in 2009, his legacy lives on forever. He left us an incredible gift. His encouraging, uplifting messages and inspiring, thought-provoking quotes are beloved by millions of people and shared throughout the world to this day.

Motivation is what gets you started. Habit is what keeps you going.

Either you run the day or the day runs you.

You are the average of the five people you spend the most time with.

Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines, practiced every day.

Don’t wish it were easier. Wish you were better. Don’t wish for less problems wish for more skills. Don’t wish for less challenge wish for more wisdom.

If you really want to do something, you’ll find a way. If you don’t, you’ll find an excuse.

Discipline is the bridge between goals and accomplishment.

Let others lead small lives, but not you. Let others argue over small things, but not you.. Let others cry over small hurts, but not you. Let others leave their future in someone else’s hands, but not you.

We must all suffer one of two things: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret or disappointment.

Don’t join an easy crowd, you won’t grow. Go where the expectations and the demands to perform are high.

You cannot change your destination overnight. You can change your direction.

Learn how to be happy with what you have while you pursue all that you want.

You must take personal responsibility. You cannot change the circumstances, the seasons, or the wind, but you can change yourself. That is something you have charge of.

Happiness is not something you postpone for the future; it is something you design for the present.

Take care of your body. It’s the only place you have to live.

The walls we build around us to keep sadness out also keeps out the joy.

If you don’t design your own life plan, chances are you’ll fall into someone else’s plan. And guess what they have planned for you? Not much.

The challenge of leadership is to be strong, but not rude; be kind, but not weak; be bold, but not a bully; be thoughtful, but not lazy; be humble, but not timid; be proud, but not arrogant; have humor, but without folly

Formal education will make you a living; self-education will make you a fortune.

Take advantage of every opportunity to practice your communication skills so that when important occasions arise, you will have the gift, the style, the sharpness, the clarity, and the emotions to affect other people.

If you are not willing to risk the unusual, you will have to settle for the ordinary.

Success is neither magical nor mysterious. Success is the natural consequence of consistently applying the basic fundamentals.

Failure is not a single, cataclysmic event. You don’t fail overnight. Instead, failure is a few errors in judgments, repeated every day.

It is the set of the sails, not the direction of the wind that determines which way we will go.

Work hard at your job and you can make a living. Work hard on yourself and you can make a fortune.

The difference between where you are today and where you’ll be five years from now will be found in the quality of books you’ve read.

The greatest gift you can give somebody is your own personal development. I used to say, “If you will take care of me, I will take care of you. “Now I say,  I will take care of me for you, if you will take care of you for me.

The ultimate reason for setting goals is to entice you to become the person it takes to achieve them

You don’t get paid for the hour. You get paid for the value you bring to the hour.

Apple, FBI testify before Congress: Here's what you need to know. Auckland Apple iPhone iPad iPod Repair unlock by Dr Mobiles Limited

UPDATED: Three key witnesses across both sides of the encryption battle between tech companies and the government testify to lawmakers. Here's what you need to know.


Three key players in a battle over encryption between tech companies and the government are testifying to members of the House Judiciary Committee.

Representatives from Apple, the Justice Dept., and the FBI, along with a leading academic, were called to the hearing in the wake of a legal case that erupted last month, in which a California magistrate judge compelled Apple to help the FBI unlock the iPhone used by one of the San Bernardino terrorists.

Apple refused to comply with the order, which it argued would set a "dangerous precedent," and later filed a motion to dismiss the case.

The witnesses conflicted on various points in their opening statements published Monday, but all agreed on varying degrees that the case should be decided by Congress and not the courts. FBI director James Comey, who testified before the committee but did not release an opening statement, said that the courts "cannot resolve... [the] collision between public safety and privacy."

Here are the key takeaways that you need to know:

FBI 'CAN'T CRACK IPHONE' WITHOUT A COURT ORDER
Comey told Rep. Darrell Issa (R-CA, 49th) that the FBI went "to all areas of government to see if anyone can unlock the iPhone," but was unsuccessful.

In other lines of questioning, the FBI director confirmed that the NSA, which has a history of breaking into networks and devices, was unsuccessful.

Without help from Apple, federal agents aren't ever getting into the terrorist's iPhone.

"We can get into that phone with our computing power, if [Apple] takes off the auto-erase and the delay between guesses function," he said.

One Republican lawmaker criticized the FBI for arguing that the government needs "more tools and more compulsion," but that even members of Congress "can't even see what you're already doing."

Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-UT, 3rd) said the FBI would "routinely refuse to explain" how it uses technologies, such as stingray cell-site impersonators and zero-day exploits, leaving open the suggestion that the agency may misuse its power relating to the iPhone case.

OTHER NATION STATES COULD HAVE 'INTERNATIONAL IMPLICATIONS'
The FBI director argued that there would be some "international implications" in regards to the Apple case, but was pushed further by one prominent Californian lawmaker.

"It may be that the alternative is a world where nothing is private," said Rep. Zoe Lofgren (D-CA, 19th), referencing Comey's comments.

Lofgren, a staunch privacy advocate and friend in the House of many tech companies for her district's proximity to Silicon Valley, echoed similar sentiments by her congressional colleague Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR), a member of the Senate Intelligence Committee, who argued the Apple case could easily "snowball" around the world.

"Why in the world would our government want to give repressive regimes in Russia and China a blueprint for forcing American companies to create a backdoor?" said Wyden in comments in mid-February.

Beijing has previously pushed for legislation demanding access to encrypted systems, citing its own national security concerns. A move in that direction would be devastating for Apple, which generates accounts for almost half of its global revenue, but also other Silicon Valley companies that rely on China for large portions of its revenue.

Apple's general counsel Bruce Sewell said no other country had demanded backdoor access to its products or its customers' data. "The only place we're having this debate is in our own country," he said.

"YOU'RE NOT GOING TO LIKE WHAT COMES OUT OF CONGRESS"
Lawmakers are expected to file a brief in favor of Apple's case with the California court that ruled in the FBI's favor, Reuters reported on Monday.

The move sends the strongest signal yet that members of Congress may end up legislating to decide on the fate of Apple -- and similar cases -- rather than the courts. Sewell threw his weight behind that proposed effort, urging lawmakers to move on the matter, but that drew ire from one lawmaker.

Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner (R-WI, 5th), who originally helped to pen the Patriot Act in the wake of the September 11 terrorist attacks, asked if Apple had a particular bill to consider. Sewell argued that it was the FBI that brought the matter to the courts, but admitted there wasn't a bill that Apple supported.

"I can tell you you're not going to like what comes out of Congress," said Sensenbrenner. It was a subtle hint that the Justice Dept. can take a law and interpret it for its own gains, which in part led to the Wisconsin lawmaker introducing the Freedom Act last year, a counter-effort to his original bill.

Rep. John Conyers (D-MI, 13th), the ranking member of the committee, added that lawmakers should discuss possible legislative outcomes 'even if the dialogue does not yield the results desired by some in the law enforcement community."

FBI "MADE A MISTAKE" IN INITIAL ATTEMPT TO UNLOCK IPHONE
Comey told the committee that he and others would still be testifying even if the FBI was able to get access to the device's backup stored in the cloud.

That's a reversal from a statement made by the FBI, which previously said that the password reset incident wasn't its mistake.

The terrorist's iCloud account was reset shortly after the FBI took custody of the iPhone, meaning the phone and the device couldn't talk to each other, according to Apple executives speaking to sister-site CNET. San Bernardino County's official Twitter account later announced that the county was "working cooperatively with the FBI when it reset the iCloud password at the FBI's request," pinning the blame on the federal agency.

OTHER SNIPPETS FROM THE HEARING:
Issa asked if the FBI asked Apple for access to its source code. Comey said it was not aware if it had. "We wouldn't be litigating if we could," said Comey.
Comey confirmed that the FBI has seen "most of the metadata" relating to the San Bernardino shooter's communications.
Conyers made a note of the timing of the court case. He said he, "would be deeply disappointed if it turns out that the government is found to be exploiting a national tragedy to pursue a change in the law."
Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY, 10th) argued that even if Congress were to pass a law to allow device access, bad actors could still use their own encryption.
Rep. Judy Chu (D-CA, 27th) put the onus of responsibility on the FBI in the iPhone unlock case. She said that safe manufacturers "are not required to keep keys to safes or locks," therefore Apple should not be compelled to. "It's clear technology is outpacing the FBI's capabilities," she added.
