We have just reported about an issue with iTunes Activation Servers that is leaving thousands of iDevices around the world bricked. The issue occurs after the device is updated to the latest iOS 4.3.3 firmware using iTunes. The firmware update completes as it would normally, but after that, iTunes fails to activate the update via the activation servers, hence leaving iPhones, iPads and iPod touches bricked and useless, around the world. We hit upon a solution to fix iOS 4.3.3 bricked iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. Read on below to find out more.

If the screenshot posted above is exactly what you encounter after having updated to iOS 4.3.3 using iTunes, then you have definitely been hit by this issue.

Irked iDevice owners have taken to Apple Support Communities for venting their frustration over this whole issue, while some have even gone to the extent of claiming that iTunes servers may have been hacked. We have no official word from Apple on this as yet.

Right so now to fix your iOS 4.3.3 bricked iPhone, iPad and iPod touch. One poster on the forums has posted a solution for this:

"After holding down the on/off button and home button at the same time the phone turned off. I then held down the home button while plugging into Itunes. The phone prompted me to reset the phone which I did. Luckily I had backed up prior to trying to update. Now I have the 4.3.3 update and the phone is working. Whew!"

Apple Released The Following Statement

Tweet

Firmware 3.0.1 is now available for the iPhone, iPhone 3G, and iPhone 3GS. The software update can be downloaded from iTunes. The update is about 300MB. The new update fixes the SMS hack that was announced yesterday at the Black Hat conference in Las Vegas. If your iPhone is jailbroken or unlocked DO NOT UPDATE. Updating will break your unlock and/or jailbreak. So far, no new features have been added in this update.

Apple released the following statement:

We appreciate the information provided to us about SMS vulnerabilities which affect several mobile phone platforms. This morning, less than 24 hours after a demonstration of this exploit, we've issued a free software update that eliminates the vulnerability from the iPhone. Contrary to what's been reported, no one has been able to take control of the iPhone to gain access to personal information using this exploit.

Apple Was Being Coy

Tweet

During Apple's new iPad event yesterday, I (among others) were waiting for the other shoe to drop: what are they going to name the new iPad? From the get-go, it was only being referred to as "the new iPad". It was easy to sit through the various demos hanging my hat on the idea that Apple was being coy and would close things off with some flashy video with a big reveal punctuated by a snappy one-liner. "iPad 3 - we just revolutionized magic. Again. iPad HD - your TV won't know what hit it." But one by one, we watched the new iPad apps come and go, until the event wrapped up with a colourful remix of Apple's classic logo and no further mention of the name was made.

Huh. I guess they're just calling it "the new iPad."

Scouring through the updated content posted on Apple's site, we have at best a mention to the "3rd.-generation iPad," but nothing so official as to imagine another name on the box. Once the reality started setting in, the scenarios for confusion rushed in a flood: would we still be calling it "the new iPad" in eight months? Would we have to qualify the name on our own terms, outside the blessing of Apple's marketing department, and if so, how consistent could that naming be? Will Apple drop "the new" from the website branding soon and leave us with just "iPad"? There are too many questions that are being raised just by a name; Apple has a reputation for being simple, but going this far is just obtuse.

I'm still having trouble understanding why Apple would even bother going this route. Sure, it streamlines things so consumers aren't overloaded with options. In theory, a mainstream shopper could walk into an Apple store, hold out their hand, and say "I want an iPad" and there wouldn't need to be any additional discussion because for all intents and purposes, there's only one iPad. Unfortunately, it won't work out that way because Apple will be selling the last generation for at least awhile. And the old generation is called "iPad 2".

The one with the number 2 on it is older, cheaper, and not as good as the one without the number 2 on it. That's more confusing than a Star Wars prequel.

After the iPad 2 is phased out, "the new iPad" will have a successor. If "the new iPad" is also kept around at a lower price, how then will Apple differentiate? How will customers tell them apart on the shelves? Unless Apple brings down the hammer and wipes out all of the old stock and replaces it with the newest models, nameless iPads are bound to cause a lot of confusion.

Sure, Apple has done this for years with Macs. The latest MacBook Air isn't MacBook Air 4, it's just MacBook Air. And Apple didn't keep the backlight-free MacBook Air 3, or the old design MacBook Air 2 on the shelves at a reduced price along with it.

Apple hasn't numbered iPods historically either. Then again, when Steve Jobs introduced the new iPod touch back in September 2010, he "called" it "the new iPod touch" but it wasn't "branded" that way on the keynote slides behind him like "the new iPad" was for Tim Cook.

Beyond sheer logistics, there's a nice continuity and narrative that sequential naming provides. The iPhone lineup has struck a nice rhythm with S-level iterative updates interspersing the big launches. You can put each and every iPhone on a timeline, and it makes sense. The iPad is now only three generations in and the ongoing story is getting muddled. In two years, having "the new iPad" in the middle of the timeline is going to look weird, especially if the next one returns to naming convention, even one as simple as "iPad 4. Even OS X has had solid delineation between between updates, even though it stopped numerical changes in branding years ago.

Phil Schiller, Apple's Senior Vice President of Worldwide Product Marketing was quoted yesterday as saying Apple chose to go with "the new iPad" so as to not be predictable. That's not a typical Apple answer, so it's possible Schiller was being coy. Their marketing is usually as incredibly focused and on point as their products. "Not being something" is different and less powerful than "being something".

Luckily, this naming mess is the only sour point in Apple's new product; the new iPad has LTE, a quad-core graphics processor, and a Retina display, which is all anyone really wanted. Yeah, NFC might have been nice, but it's far from a dealbreaker, and most of the other rumoured features, like electro-static feedback, were pretty far-fetched anyway. And who knows? Maybe Apple's marketing department couldn't settle on a name for the event, and are postponing the official branding for the launch next week. Then again, that's probably just wishful thinking on my part.

It S Important To Note That The Blackberry Remains The Dominant Smartphone

Tweet

Research In Motion has finally lost its home-country advantage.

The company's BlackBerry, long a favorite among Canadians, was outsold by Apple's iPhone last year, for the first time. According to new data from IDC, RIM shipped 2.08 million BlackBerrys in Canada in 2011. Meanwhile, Apple shipped 2.85 million iPhones, easily besting it.

And Canadian sales of the BlackBerry, which account for 7 percent of total shipments of the handset, fell 23 percent in the latest quarter.

A humiliating reversal for RIM's BlackBerry, which just four years ago was outselling the iPhone in Canada by a nearly five-to-one margin. While losing traction like this among the hometown crowd isn't a massive strategic defeat, it's surely a devastating psychological one for RIM, a Canadian success story.

Still, it's important to note that the BlackBerry remains the dominant smartphone in some emerging markets, like the Middle East and Africa, where 2011 BlackBerry shipments were more than triple those of the iPhone.

RIM reports earnings next week.
