HTC strikes exclusive deal for Beats Audio smartphones, we wonder why it’s not HP

Posted: 10 Aug 2011 09:36 PM PDT

We’ll be honest, we’re fans of the work HTC’s managed over the past few years. It might be a series of black-fronted slabs with the occasional horizontal slider or 3D camera, but overall they’re solid and impressive devices. It’s the kind of stuff we want from HP, and it’s a bar we hope phones like the HP Pre3 will be able to reach. But HTC may have made that a touch more difficult with today’s pre-announcement: they’ve secured an exclusive deal with Beats Audio for HTC smartphones, and it rings in at $300 million.

The Beats Audio deal is likely the reason behind tomorrow’s conference call, though HTC CEO Peter Chou will have nothing of those sort of deadlines. He revealed to AllThingsD that HTC has signed an exclusive deal with Beats to include the audio tech in HTC’s upcoming smartphones. What that means is that HTC’s smartphones will likely sound better out of all speakers and the headphone jack, much as the HP TouchPad actually sounds pretty decent from its stereo speakers, but even better when hooked up to a good stereo system.

HP and Beats go way back. HP’s had Beats-enabled laptops for some time and the TouchPad was a natural extension of that relationship. We’re actually quite surprised to see Beats shacking up exclusively with HTC for smartphones, and quite disappointed that we’re not going to see any Beats-powered webOS smartphones any time in the near future. HP’s got the scale, but at the same time, $300 million is quite the investment to make for just audio. HP’s likely learned a lot from their experience with the Beats crew that they’ll be able to supply enhanced audio in future devices even without the lauded Beats branding. webOS has the potential to be a media powerhouse – all it needs is the hardware to back it up.

Update: Beats by Dr. Dre has made it official from their end too.

Daily Tip: How to jailbreak iOS 5 beta 5 via RedSn0w 0.9.8b5

Posted: 10 Aug 2011 09:36 PM PDT

If you’re currently running iOS 5 beta 5 but just can’t live without your jailbreak, the Dev Team has already released RedSn0w beta 5. The only catch is, it’s tethered, just like the previous beta versions of RedSn0w for iOS 5.

Be advices that not all jailbreak apps and tweaks have been updated to support iOS 5. If you’re alright with running tethered and don’t mind a few bugs here and there, follow along for a quick walkthrough.

By this point, almost anyone jailbreaking is already familiar with RedSn0w and how it works. It’s no different this time.

Devices Supported

  • iPod touch 3G
  • iPod touch 4G
  • iPad 1
  • iPhone3GS
  • iPhone4 (GSM)
  • iPhone4 (CDMA)

And I can’t say this enough times, if your device is not listed above, please do not attempt to jailbreak it on iOS 5!

What you need

After you have iOS 5 beta 5 installed on your device and your version of iTunes upgraded to 10.5 beta 5, follow the steps below to jailbreak.

  1. First launch RedSn0w.

  2. It should ask you to navigate to a firmware file. Simply navigate to the iOS 5 beta 5 firmware file instead of beta 2.
  3. Once you click next, RedSn0w will take a minute to do it's thing. You should see a patching kernel message and that Redsn0w successfully recognized your firmware.

  4. Next select the options you'd like RedSn0w to perform. I typically only select Install Cydia. It's worth noting that this is where you will perform a tethered boot if needed as well. You will just select Just boot tethered for now if you need to do this or your device reboots or dies.

  5. Redsn0w will now walk you through putting your device into DFU mode

  6. After you're successfully in DFU mode, simply let Redsn0w do its thing and you're done!

That’s it! The process is pretty much the same as the first time around. But if you do run into problems or have questions, make sure you check out our TiPb Jailbreak Forums. We’ve got tons of great members more than ready and willing to help!

Tips of the day will range from beginner-level 101 to advanced-level ninjary. If you already know this tip, keep the link handy as a quick way to help a friend. If you have a tip of your own you’d like to suggest, add them to the comments or send them in to dailytips@tipb.com. (If it’s especially awesome and previously unknown to us, we’ll even give ya a reward…)


Apple closed as the most valuable company in the world

Apple closed as the most valuable company in the world

While yesterday Apple only briefly passed Exxon to become the most valuable company in the world for a few minutes, today they managed to close that way. Whether they close that way tomorrow or not doesn’t matter. Whether they continue to rack up these type of accomplishments or go on to yet again eclipse them, whether they continue to lay, an image of the splendor of Silicon Valley in glory undimmed before the introduction of the microprocessor, doesn’t matter.

Today, Apple closed as the most valuable company in the world, by market cap.

And iPhone 5 hasn’t even been announced yet.

What on earth is next?

Can’t wait to play Minecraft on Android? There is always MineBuilder.

Posted: 10 Aug 2011 09:36 PM PDT

We have been checking out a game called MineBuilder for awhile now which is essentially a Minecraft-style game that is actually very similar to actual Minecraft. This game has been out for about 2 months and through quite a few updates MineBuilder has come a long way from it’s inception.
