Crookbond Posted September 23, 2013 Posted September 23, 2013 Thats a hacker club & they just chose a high profile target... to be fair, they claim that the whole biometric industry is a sham The "club" has only shown that cracking iPhone Touch Id can be cracked - even the great wall of China can be broken down. The cost to do it is what defines the level of security.
Crookbond Posted September 23, 2013 Posted September 23, 2013 ^^ they got it horribly wrong. They cracked it with in a week or less. Also if you didnt know you can now make calls even if they phone is locked. you can international and local calls even if you phone is locked with IOS 7. AND you can access photos from a locked screen. These are much pertinent security bugs which should be talked about rather than cracking Touch ID using 1000 USD infrastructure.
maniac Posted September 23, 2013 Posted September 23, 2013 Watta let down....Was expecting teleportation and time-travel in these newer versions :((

Google translate their German articles on their opposition to biometric technology
Sachinism Posted September 24, 2013 Posted September 24, 2013 So from a 4-digit (or no as 50% people don't use them) you now require - physical access to the phone' date=' 2400 dpi resolution image of the fingerprint, 1200 dpi laser printer and transparent sheet, pint latex milk or white woodglue plus a lot of vella time; that's increasing security as far as I see.[/quote'] lol I think its just funny cause of typical Apple claiming something to be fantastically amazing for its buyers and being exposed as typical Apple, make it shiny and the user base will lap it up
Crookbond Posted September 24, 2013 Posted September 24, 2013 lol I think its just funny cause of typical Apple claiming something to be fantastically amazing for its buyers and being exposed as typical Apple' date=' make it shiny and the user base will lap it up[/quote'] Apple claimed it to be easy and quick - it is easy and quick. As for being exposed, please understand what "easy" means in comparison to a pass code.

Old guy Posted October 4, 2013 Posted October 4, 2013 talking of Xerox....................do you remember Xerox's PARC he's calling Android a photocopying machine that just copies what iOS does. did you forget motorola atrix which came out 2 years back? Xerox machine :hmmm: exactly! i mean this sensor on iphone is better but it came few years later when technology matured and hardware was capable of quick scanning but tell me how this is copy ? its dumb and dexter you are one of those person who actually alway says each company copy good ideas .. btw how does android even come into this ? just because its running android ?
Crookbond Posted October 5, 2013 Posted October 5, 2013 talking of Xerox....................do you remember Xerox's PARC I remember the royalty paid to them for use of the mouse. Do you? :winky:

Not me with apparently Picasso has said it and I agree. But that's besides the point. IF the technology is matured etc. why wait till Apple releases it first :dontknow: This is no coincidence - first with the gold colored cover S4 and now this. It is irritating to see phone-clones in the market as a consumer. One of the reasons I admire the Windows Phone - they have their own (sometimes cr@p) with niche segment.

Wrong information again S4 was avalible in gold before iPhone 5s was even announced And no see the link apple copied atrix by this logic
Old guy Posted October 5, 2013 Posted October 5, 2013 http://pocketnow.com/2013/09/27/samsung-gold-phones I will just let you decide.. I guess Samsung went into future saw gold I phone came back and copied it before apple released it ?
