Returning this Friday, Verizon will again begin to double their data packages (all for the original price). This means the 2GB limit will be pushed back to 4GB, a great deal for those not grandfathered into a now unavailable Unlimited data package. The only stipulation? You must be a customer newly signing up under a 4G plan for a smartphone. This includes new customers as well as customers willing to extend their 2 Year prison sentence.

The main issue with any iOS device is the lack of originality between two devices. Without a case, which thus ruins the artistic design the masterful Jonathan Ive sculpted, or, say, your specific layout of the icons on the homescreen, two devices are almost indistinguishable at a glance. With Springtomize2, this problem is now in the past. Springtomize allows the customization of any basic feature of iOS, including animations, the dock, lockscreen, notification center, and much, much more.

The Rebug team released the tool LV2 Loader to aid developers working with the lv2_kernel.self.

LV2 Loader is a tool for devs to allow the quick testing of modified lv2_kernel.self by launching it from the root of dev_flash without the risk of bricking the PS3 or need for a flasher if the new kernel does not work.

The app will run on any 3.15, 3.41, 3.55 CEX or DEX firmware that has lv1 mmap and lv2 peek and poke patches. It also has udp_printf support which will return the offset of the lv2 boot path in lv1 and a little bit of info about what it is doing.
