Apple’s All New Lightning Connector - Everything You Need To Know

The new iPhone 5, along with the new iPods, comes with a new connector that Apple has named the Lightning connector. This 8 pin connector is much smaller than the previous 30 pin connector that Apple has been using for the past decade or so. This big yet subtle change in the dock connector will directly affect all those who already own any of the Apple devices and of course those who purchase the new ones. If you happen to want to use your Apple accessories for the new iPhone 5, you will have to buy an adapter. The other alternative is to purchase the new accessories that are coming out in the fall for the new ions devices. New Lightening Connector From Apple According to Apple, the new connector has some serious benefits to offer : The reduction in size (by an exact 80%) means that Apple gets the chance to fit many more components into the brand new better than ever iPhone 5 The connector is reversible, so you need not worry about which is the right side to plug in. The data flow will be faster with the new cable. The change is quite annoying for a number of existing Apple customers. Buying a converter will cost you $30 at least, and the lightning/ USB cable comes for $20. But, in all fairness, this measure is not a way to force people to buy something new; Apple has been pretty consistently merciless in term of adopting the latest and chucking out outdated technology.

Apple will make a bit of benefit on its new sales of course. The accessories market for iPods, iPads and iPhones pulls in a significant percentage of revenue. According to some estimates, Apple purchased accessories worth $2-$3 billion in fiscal the previous year. Moreover, much of the accessories mad by Apple, such as adapters and cables, are pretty much pure profit considering they cost very little to make in the first place.

The new dock also means that some of the third-party accessory manufacturers get opportunities to sell new docks, cases, chargers and all kinds of accessories that are connected via the port at the bottom of the iPhone/ iPod. These accessories will become available with major brands such as Bowers & Wilkins, Bose and JBL around the holidays. Therefore, the new iPad is the only Apple device of the current generation to be using the 30 pin connector. This will obviously change soon, since any move made by Apple with one device rolls out to the others as well.

Last month there have shared a lot of Cydia apps and tweaks that were not just amazing but most of them were even free so you can install them and enjoy tweaking. The most amazing thing about jailbreaking your device is that you can tweak your device as you wish, yes we really mean it! You don't like the song of facebook messenger, simply access the files and replace it with another, or if you don't like the infuriating yahoo messenger sound, simply delete it and add another one. You can even edit the game files to impress your friends by increasing the scrore :) That's some privilege which only users with jailbroken devices can enjoy. With iOS 5, notification center was something new and there have been a lot of tweaks on daily basis that come handy.
How about music and cydia tweaks related to music ? And how about having a widget that simply allows you to change the tracks and other functionality from the notification center ? We don't have any app like that , do we ? Well, now we do. Jukebox is a new cydia app/tweak that integrates a simple to use music player right into your notification center allowing you to access music no matter where you are.Jukebox goes well with Dashboard X, so you can add a music player widget right on your home screen as a widget. Amazing, isn't it ? There is more, jukebox works well with intelliscreenX and lockinfo too.
Cydia Description

Simply swipe to the left or right to take a peek at the next or previous track, and swipe further to skip to that track.
