Apple iPhone 7 users report EarPods glitch
by Guest FoxNews.com- 0 replies
- 22 views
http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/23c9cdf7336c2eb09e5735ac93e6f718.jpgA quirky problem is reportedly affecting some people who are using Apple’s new Lightning-connected EarPods: the controls on the EarPods themselves stop working after a brief amount of time. With the iPhone 7, Apple famously removed the traditional audio jack. Instead, the new device comes with EarPods that plug into the Lightning port— the same port used to charge the device. It also includes an adapter that connects older headphones with the 3.5mm jack to the more modern digital connection system.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/f871062e401b1b025bc033589cb38263.jpgAfter months of speculation and dozens (dozens!) of optimistic projections that never came to pass, it seems that we finally have a firm grasp on when the highly-anticipated fifth season of Arrested Development is slated to air. During an interview with TODAY, Jeffrey Tambor was asked about the rumored new season and indicated that his marching orders were to report for work in January. Tambor's comments dovetails nicely with comments made by Jessica Walter (who plays Lucille Bluth ) who said during a backstage interview earlier this month that prospects for filming a new season of the incredi…

$12 USB flash drive works with your PC and any Android phone

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/85b5ec9f75afdd695913b01911808da8.jpg Why should moving files on and off your Android phone be any more complicated than it is with your Windows or Mac PC? It shouldn't be, and now it doesn't have to be. Cloud storage systems are great, but they use precious cellular data if you're not connected to Wi-Fi and they can also be painfully slow. Instead of relying on the cloud, snag one of the two PNY DUO-LINK flash drives Amazon has on sale right now. You'll find a 32GB option and a 64GB option, and both versions include a standard USB 3.0 plug as well as a microUSB plug for your Android smartphone or tablet. Do you have a newer And…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/f01e5c2f800e91a3be35c21256e272ca.jpgThe iPhone 7 Plus and the Galaxy Note 7 are the only two phablets making headlines this fall, if for very different reasons. But aside from the fancy cameras and built-in hand warmers, it's good to see the physical robustness of both handsets put head to head. That's exactly what happens in this drop test video, which pits an iPhone 7 Plus against a Galaxy Note 7 in a series of drop tests onto concrete. It's glass versus metal the whole way, and the results probably aren't going to shock you. (more…) Trending right now: 10 paid iPhone apps on sale for free today 7 ways Apple’s iPhon…

At the National Championship Air Races in Reno, Nevada this past Sunday – an event where planes race each other thousands of feet up in the air – pilot Thom Richard noticed that something was amiss with his engine while on the runway. Following protocol, Richard signaled that something was wrong with his plane, killed the engine, and opened up his canopy. Now normally, all of the other pilots on the runway should have been made aware of the situation so that they could keep their planes at bay and let Richa…

Google launched its highly anticipated smart messaging service Allo last night, and it’s pretty much turned out to be a disaster from the start.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/18440a18d2a8fec738a73bc102b51593.jpgAhmad Khan Rahami, the terror suspect accused of planting bombs across New York and New Jersey this past weekend, reportedly used eBay to source a number of components used in his explosive devices. According to a complaint filed yesterday in New York City, Rahami didn’t even take serious measures to hide his identity during the planning stages of the attack. Using the user ID “ahmad rahimi,” Rahimi perused the popular online auction site to purchase items such as hundreds of ball bearings, electric igniters and other materials commonly associated with homemade explosive devices.

While the iPhone 7 Plus has an incredible dual camera system, the new camera on the iPhone 7 is nothing to scoff at either. Relative to the iPhone 6s, the iPhone 7 camera represents a huge leap forward. Spec wise, the iPhone 7 features a 12 megapixel sensor, a f/1.8 aperture for better shots in low light environments, optical image stabilization and quad-LED TrueTone flash for more accurate shots and, according to Apple, sharper and “more brightly lit photos.” The iPhone 7 Plus, …

Although Marvel and DC both raked in hundreds of millions of dollar at the box office, the critical reception of Batman v Superman and Suicide Squad was middling at best, ruthless at worst and gave DC plenty to think about going forward. But Marvel wasn't invulnerable either, as is evidenced by the 48% Tomatometer score for X-Men: Apocalypse on Rotten Tomatoes.
