In OS 4.0 beta 4 Mobile Safari suffers minor UI changes and Apple added a new “accessibility” feature into Settings.app for visually impaired or elderly people.
In OS 4.0 beta 4 Mobile Safari suffers minor UI changes. Probably not even visible. At least i didn’t notice it until i got 4.0b4 and 3.1.3 side by side. When you tap on Google, the cancel button is on the right side of the search bar and not above it as before.
Probably the most obvious change, is the presence of a new folder on the Springboard called Utilities. It contains 4 apps: Clock, Calculator, Voice Memos and Compass. The funny thing is that the folder goes away as soon as you sync the iDevice because iTunes breaks the folder sync…

A new carrier file has been added to iPhone 4.0 Beta 4, now version 6.2 up from version 6.0, that has brought back the hopes of native tethering for iPhone users on the AT&T network.( Something every other network has already been enjoying).
A new carrier file has been added to iPhone 4.0 Beta 4, now version 6.2 up from version 6.0, that has brought back the hopes of native tethering for iPhone users on the AT&T network.( Something every other network has already been enjoying). Now when going to the network settings in the Settings.app you have a pop up for enabling tethering, and to contact AT&T either via a call or the website.
Going to the web site, and logging into the OLAM(online accounts manager) there are no tethering features yet to add. So next we will have to place a call during business hours…stay tuned for that.
The database you see in the screenshot above could be a pointer that the iPhone will use the same camera connection kit as the iPad to import photos from an Auxilliary device….
Well this is an interesting find… The database you see in the screenshot above could be a pointer that the iPhone will use the same camera connection kit as the iPad to import photos from an Auxiliary device….
No idea what this could be, or if this one its new. We never seen it before, and there no API for it. It could be for movie rentals, and most probably it is aimed at the iPad.

Back when Apple released iTunes 9.1.1, we told you about a new feature : inter-app file sharing. With OS 4 beta 4 we can see and use this feature with Stanza.
Back when Apple released iTunes 9.1.1, we told you about a new feature : inter-app file sharing. At the time the only app supported was Mail.app , but even so, we couldn’t transfer any files. With OS 4 beta 4 we can see and use this feature with Stanza. Why they removed the stock app(s) , we don’t know but one thing is for sure: OS 4.0 beta 5 will hit developers before the final build will be released….
A new folder found its way on our iDevices called “Books”. This will (probably) be the place where all your eBooks downloaded from the iBooks app will be stored.

Even if OS 4.0 beta 4 won’t update the version of its baseband ( 5.13.04 ) we noticed a baseband update while restoring with Xcode.
Even if OS 4.0 beta 4 won’t update the version of its baseband ( 5.13.04 ) we noticed a baseband update while restoring with Xcode. MuscleNerd points that this is both good and bad. ( good because they can start working on the unlock, bad because … well it is still updating )
