F one for the win....their prices are excellent.

Enable notifications for each app under settings. Notifications can either be a combination of sound and/or visual alerts, banner, badge.

All are on. The problem is the apps don't keep running in the background using mobile data. So I only get notifications when I turn on the app. I think it's maybe to save data but I buy unlimited social plans so data usage is not an issue. Still trying to solve this, I have to keep checking whatsapp every time i hold the phone.

OK I got my problem solved, I switched from the digi unlimited go social plan to regular data plan and it works fine now.

I'm looking for a post on upgrading an iPad 1 that has been jail broken but can't find it, any one can point me in the right direction or knows how? Yes I did use the search option.

[src1983]

Well with Digicel it doesn't work. Probably as they aren't official carriers it isn't supported.

Posting while using it now.

Are your APN settings correct?

[Aaron 2NR]

digi hotspot has been giving some issues a few days

[PapaC]

Yeah the settings are correct. It connects like the old style hotspot. Enter password and connect.

Yah I know we don't have real 4G just was wondering why android phones show 4G and iPhones didn't

Because branded roms such as AT&T ones detect HSPA+ but are programmed to display 4G. Even in America with AT&T carrier bundles on the iPhone, it will show 4G for HSPA+ because of the bundle. bmobile did not push for any extra mods to the carrier bundle i assume so this is probably why it doesn't show as 4G.

Vanilla android roms such as AOSP etc. will show H+ unless the rom itself is modded.

Anyone having the problem with the rear camera being unable to focus on the iPhone 6 plus? From searching online it seems to be a common problem. It happened to my phone yesterday and I did everything from rebooting to updating to iOS 8.2 so it's probably a hardware problem. Bought the phone in New York it's still under warranty but I don't want to ship it. Can I go to a local authorized store like iworld to get it looked at or fixed? Do they honour warranty from foreign stores? Or should I just change the camera?

[Chimera]

From what I've read here,iworld will honour the warranty

[PBZ Wingroad]

Okay thanks

The new macbook is great...no worries with the single port...its the future...
only issue is the camera ...

the 15" mac book will be refreshed once soon as will the macbook air (hopefully with retina display)

[jhonnieblue]

I don't think the air will ever get retina..lost likely that model will phase out..and the macbook prob will up hardware specs

[Duane 3NE 2NR]

I don't think the air will ever get retina..lost likely that model will phase out..and the macbook prob will up hardware specs

the problem is the battery - retina sucks power to run a screen at that res.

they had to seriously reduce the size of the logic board and other internals to increase the battery space so it could be practical to run retina in the new MacBook.

[Aaron 2NR]

i still dunno how people can use those smaller macs tho...i have grown so accustomed to a 15" display...

agreed with what patch said, the single port is just the future of the lineup....

[jhonnieblue]

13-15 OK..would prefer portability and great batt.

Maybe when the next incriment of core m, I think it might be a worthy upgrade.... Time enough for after market manufacturers to develop peripherals with usb-c

480P camera in 2015 is a disgrace as well.

New Apple TV finally?

http://appleinsider.com/articles/15/03/ ... e---report

Seems legit given the recent price drop of the current one.

I really hope so

putting the AppStore on the Apple Tv will completely change the set top box segment and give Apple a major advantage

also hoping for a wireless remote (bluetooth or otherwise) rather than IR

Could always use your phone as a wireless remote in the meantime

as functional as that is, is not as practical as a physical remote.

I use a Logitech universal remote with my Apple TV wirelessly and that's far more convenient than the remote app. if they open up the AppStore to AppleTV then more than likely they will have to introduce a remote with an accelerometer in it to navigate apps usually made for touch, like they did with the Roku 3 and Angry Birds

I agree been using my harmony one for years with the Apple TV as well. Phone App remote is last case scenario. I was actually contemplating buying the roku 3 mainly cuz Amazon prime video annoying to use via AirPlay... But think I'll hold off to see details of this Apple TV upgrade first.

I've been using a harmony 900 for years too - but now I got a Harmony Ultimate Home and it is leaps and bounds ahead of the One and 900. It's awesomer lol

I also have a Roku 3 and it is better than the current Apple TV by far with regards to speed and considerably more content including apps like PLEX. I'm not sure even the new AppleTv will allow that. yes you can run Plex on your iPhone or iPad and airplay to your AppleTv right now, but native apps on a device are far more elegant and practical to use.

The Harmony Ultimate controls both the AppleTV and Roku 3 wirelessly without needing IR.

[M_2NR]

Ah want the appstore on my current appletv3
but we all know apple ain't gonna do that.
That's not how they roll

So since you have it... just got my Harmony Home Ultimate today as well actually. And now releasing that I may need multiple hubs to use the remote/app in different rooms on different floors? It's not a simple IR remote like the Harmony One I'm used to.. Or am I wrong? Please say I'm wrong. Cuz I'll be rel annoyed if i hada buy multiple $100 USD hubs for each room that has an entertainment system
Is either that or run extension cables for the included IR blasters. -_-

Cuz I'll be rel annoyed if i hada buy multiple $100 USD hubs for each room that has an entertainment system
Is either that or run extension cables for the included IR blasters. -_-

No it's one remote to one hub. You can use your phone or tablet via the Harmony App to access any one of the hubs in your house.

The idea is not to walk around the house with your remote. You should have a remote for each room you have entertainment equipment in that requires IR. it's not like you can watch TV in the living room while you are in the bedroom. So you should have a living room remote and hub and a bedroom remote and hub.

Since the hub is also wifi and bluetooth capable it means that you can control wifi and BT devices like light switches, bulbs, window shutters, plugs, shades etc from the remote (or mobile app) from anywhere in the house. But If you want to control the TV or receiver via IR then that room or cabinet will need a hub, blasters and a remote. Since the remote is RF then you can take that remote elsewhere in the house and turn the TV on, but I'm not sure why you'd want to do that since you can't see the TV from outside the room it's in.

The IR on the hub is pretty powerful. I have a Harmony Ultimate Home in my home office and I have the hub in the middle of the room on top a tall storage cabinet and it can control the TV, receiver and a/c unit in the office via IR, control the PS3, Roku 3 and AppleTV and iMac also in the office via wifi and bluetooth.
I didn't need to use the two blasters at all.

ahh.. makes sense. You see, I use my old harmony at home in all rooms actually.. since it's unlikely i'll ever have more than one entertainment system in use simultaneously. So never really had the need to use the IR harmony for more than one room simultaneously; remote using in bedroom, living room system almost always off/not in use and vice versa. Also, I use the same harmony remote at parents' house whenever I visit since I added their devices as well. (They have a tendency to misplace/demolish remotes)
So I'm guessing I got spoilt with that.. using one remote for different rooms.. which I now realize wasn't the intention.

The one remote to one hub (per room) makes more sense though and is more convenient; just never really had to use it that way before.

Thanks for clearing that up

You can still use it like that and at your parent's house

In the MyHarmony app on your mac or pc, go to Settings > More >>> Remote and Hub Assignments.
By default all commands go to the hub and are relayed by the hub to the devices you have setup. But you can choose which devices use the hub and which ones use the remote directly. Setting a device to remote will use the IR on the remote. but then you will have to point the remote at the device, which is 1980's kinda thing, but it lets you do what you want.
