iMessage Fails to Send

Since iMessage was brought out last year (2011) I have been gladly using it as it means that I no longer need to rely on Apps like Whatsapp or Liveprofile to share photos and videos over WiFi.

But there is one major problem – sometimes it will go to send with the loading/sending bar going right up to just before the end (say 90%) and then it will just stay there for a few minutes, then just fail!

I know it is supposed to send via SMS if it doesn’t work and the contacts I’m sending it to do have SMS’able mobile numbers but it doesn’t tell me it is doing this. So I keep trying to send it and although it says ‘failed’ sometimes the recipients DO get the message…

This is just really annoying and I would like to know a fix!

Barclays Mobile Banking App – Pingit

 

Finally for all the people banking with Barclays the wait is over! You can now check your account balance via their new app which can be found on the App Store for iPhones as well as Blackberry and Android users!

Personally I have been banking with NatWest since they were previously the only bank with a decent App for my iPhone but now I can make a judgement to move to a (better?) different bank!

I was worried that there would be some lengthy registering / signup process but thankfully it wasn’t too bad. Ideally you will need your bank card showing your sort code / account number, your mobile phone number and your “pinsentry” calculator looking thing that they insist you use nowadays!?

Their idea is so that people can easily transfer money to others using just mobiles for instances such as splitting a dinner bill…

For me it will simply be the first step towards checking my account balance at an ATM – something that should have been done a long time ago!

Still No 04.11.08 iOS 5 Gevey Unlock!

So it’s New Years Eve December 2011 and there is still no sign of a new Gevey Sim to unlock iPhones stuck on the 04.11.08 baseband.

Many people including myself thought that a new Gevey would be out by now, what is taking them so long? Has Apple finally stopped people from unlocking?

Here is the most current news on the Gevey sim:

 

A newer ultrasn0w unlock was released recently but it did not support the most wanted baseband 04.11.08. Here is more info on the latest news for ultrasn0w:
