FIXED : iPhone 5 "Share with Message" on the top half of the screen

Good day people, if your screen looks like this:



Where the "Share with Message" screen occupies only the top half of the screen and the keyboard is in the middle, this usually occurs when you have installed some JB tweaks and things go awry.

This is the solution:
  1. Uninstall Appsync
  2. Use iFile/iFunbox and navigate to \private\var\mobile\caches
  3. Delete the following files:
    •  com.apple.mobile.installation.plist
    • com.apple.LaunchServices-045.csstore
  4. Reboot your iPhone 5
  5. Problem should be fixed.
  6. Reinstall Appsync (Optional)

INTRODUCTION

Hello guys, my name is Sean and I'm from Malaysia. I have been reselling Lifeproof since it's birth back in 2011 and have not stopped since. As an official Lifeproof reseller I am glad to share this awesome case with my family and friends in Malaysia. If you're in Malaysia you can get Original Lifeproof from me right HERE on the Lowyat.net forums (Click HERE)

As of August 2012, replicas of the Lifeproof cases are starting to penetrate the Malaysian market. This is worst when the seller advertises these replicas as "original with 1 year warranty" leading many to believe they are getting the same case for a fraction of the cost.

The reason for this post is to do a detailed comparison on what the differences are between the original and the replica Lifeproof cases. Hope you find this informative and use the information here to avoid being scammed or at least you should know what you're getting for the price you're paying. Here we go...


LIFEPROOF: ORIGINAL VS REPLICA

At first glance there is absolutely nothing different from the packaging. The copycats really nailed it on this one, here have a look...


The box of the replica Lifeproof doesn't have the QR Code :



Also you will notice some spelling or typo errors :



Now that we have got the packaging out of the way, let's open it up and have a look inside. Here are some comparison photographs for your reference :



We can see from the above photographs that the QR code and website links are missing in the replica Lifeproof case. We can see the photograph below of the microfiber cloth, the original has imprinted the "Lifeproof" logo where else the one that comes with the replica is just a plain white microfiber cloth :



Let's have a look at the camera from the outside and from the inside :



The original Lifeproof case has a bigger and rounder opening compared to the smaller opening on the replica. There is also a flash diffuser on the glass camera lens which is not present on the replica.


Very briefly, it looks like there is a rubber piece where the ear piece is on the original Lifeproof case.



Observe the little home button sticker on the original case and observe there is nothing on the replica. There is also a unique serial number that comes with the original Lifeproof case for warranty claims.



And here we come to the back cover. On the left you can see the serial number that you will need for warranty claims. On the replica there is no serial number. (Note : although it is not shown on the photograph, there is a yellow O-ring that comes installed with the replica. I forgot to put it back after it came off - easily).



Surprisingly it did pass a 30 minute water test, it was dry on the inside when I took it out. Does it work? Apparently it does.

SUMMARY

Does the replica case work? Yeah it does. However there are some important points to consider if you decide to get the replica :
  1. You're on your own if/when your case fails
  2. Build quality is not as good as the original
  3. You may or may not experience washed out photographs when you use the LED flash.
  4. Most importantly, the profits go to someone else instead of Lifeproof who has been the brain child of this one of a kind waterproof case.
Getting the original Lifeproof case is always recommended due to the following reasons :

  1. Lifeproof support and warranty claims (I have had good experiences so far!)
  2. Great build quality and feel.
  3. Take great photographs underwater or above.
  4. Waterproof, shockproof, dustproof and snowproof!

I have received my white Lifeproof iPhone 4 case today. Took a while as I ordered end of May 2011 and it arrived Mid-July 2011. The Lifeproof case included the following items:


  • Lifeproof Case
  • All-weather headphone adapters (free for pre-orders only)
  • Microfiber cloth (use something better, this quality is cheap)
  • Spare headphone jack screw
  • Instructions

First impressions:
  • Gosh this is flimsy!
  • Very lightweight
  • The material feels good in hand.
  • Very beautiful packaging
  • Fingerprint magnet
  • Dust magnet
  • Chick/Dude magnet (kidding)...

Lifeproof tests each and every case before they ship it out but recommends a 1 hour water test to make sure the case doesn't leak. I tested mine for 20 minutes and said "Screw it I'm putting the case on NOW". Points on putting on and taking off the case are...
  • Snaps really tight
  • It's tough to take apart
  • Cleaning it is really difficult because you need to make sure the phone and case surface is thoroughly wiped, dry and has no bodily fluids/oils.
  • Impossible to get it totally dust free.
  • Rainbow effects were present but making sure you wipe it with a good microfiber that absorbs oil will minimize the rainbow effects. Mine appears only 5% of the time and overall it is bearable.

Immediately after putting on the case I tested it by making this video of my fishpond.



After using it a while here is my quick first impression of my Lifeproof iPhone
  • FREEDOM!
  • It feels solid in the hand.
  • Having a white case is as close to getting a white iPhone without paying a bomb
  • No worries anymore (my sisters are fond of throwing water balloons at me at the most unsuspecting moments)
  • Rainbow effects are very minimum and bearable.
  • It does add some considerable width. One handed operations will be a little tougher.
  • The case reverberates when the speaker is active (ie. playing songs)... this means that sometimes you can hear flapping distortions, etc.
  • The screen takes some getting used to due to the small air gap between the protector and the iphone screen. However the gap should reduce in approx 1-2 weeks as per reports from Lifeproof and other case users.

In summary, if you don't want to worry about getting wet in the pond, the rain, the beach, etc. you wanna do your stuff knowing your iPhone is fine and taken care well of? This is the case for you.

If you're like me and you updated your N82 to the latest firmware V30 or V31, you will find yourself thoroughly disappointed when you attempt to hack your phone to install unsigned software. Without going too deep into technicalities, Nokia improved the phone security significantly.

After months of searching I have finally found the ULTIMATE SOLUTION to hacking the unhackable N82 - HelloOX 1.03 ! Why? Because it's simple to use. First you download HelloOX, then you will have to sign the application (see link below) and install it to your phone and run it. Your phone will be hacked in less than 3 minutes!

Here are the links you will find most useful:
  1. HelloOX 1.03 Guide and Download
  2. How to Sign Unsigned Applications

P.S.
A common issue is that halfway through installation, the screen will be stuck on the "Patching" stage. All you have to do is close the application and start it again, it will continue where it left off.

Good luck!

If I told you that you can play high quality games like Crysis and Burnout Paradise on your mediocre PC, you better believe it!

With OnLive, you can enjoy high definition and high quality games at full settings using your basic computer. There is no need to spend on expensive parts and graphic cards. The catch? The quality depends on your broadband connection. The faster the better.

How does OnLive work? Read more to find out...

GDC 2009 saw the release of the blue tinted Xbox 360. In addition to the elegant black and blue tint finish and its unique style, it has a whopping 1GB of RAM. The catch? This piece of hardware is only for game developers!

Crysis may be one of the best looking games in the market, requiring a very expensive machine to run it. With the development of CryENGINE3, the very same graphics we see in Crysis can now be churned out by current consoles like the Xbox 360 and the PS3. Don't believe it? Watch this:

The screenshots below are taken from an IGN comparison between the first Resident Evil for the Playstation and the remake for the GameCube. The difference is drastic and the screenshots below prove it:
