How to Install iOS in Android Smartphone

You don’t have to root your device if you want to install iOS to Android Smartphone. Just download the software, which is found on the “Sources” section of this page, in your PC. Then, connect  your Smartphone to your computer. Open the downloaded program and follow the step-by-step procedures there.

Possible Risks

Despite the overwhelming positive feedbacks of users who have tried this solution, be warned that there may be issues associated with the software used to install iOS in Android Smartphone.

One is that the platform of Android phones such as the Galaxy series, HTC, Nexus Series and others are specially designed for their default OS. So, changing their recommended OS might expose you to some problems like loss of functionality in some features of your device, voiding its warranty and bricking.
It should be noted that the distributor of the software even admitted there is a small chance you might brick your device in the process, especially if the installation guide is not followed strictly.
Second, the software comes from a third-party source, and we can’t vouch that it is 100% reliable or trusted.
Despite these possible risks, feedbacks from people who have tried the solution said that it worked for them without any issue. Their overwhelming positive feedbacks can be found in an XDA thread where this subject has been featured, and comments in the YouTube account of its developer.

Galaxy S5 Android 5.1.1 Lollipop update: latest news

The Android 5.0 Lollipop update for the Galaxy S5 has been blighted with bugs, battery drain and crashes since its January rollout. Samsung has since vowed to fix the S5 Lollipop update and now a more-stable Android 5.1.1 is rolling out in the US, most recently to Sprint customers. Read on for all we know about the Samsung Galaxy S5 Android update.

 

Galaxy S5 Android Lollipop update (US)

Sprint Galaxy S5 update
Sprint pushed a follow-up Lollipop patch for the Galaxy S5 on July 6, bringing it up to software version G900PVPU3BOF6. The only change listed for the update was "Reactivation Lock Updates" - an update to the anti-theft feature that requires a user to log in with their Samsung account credentials even after a factory reset.
The Android 5.0 update for Galaxy S5 owners with Sprint (model number SM-G900P) can now be downloaded OTA. To see if the update is waiting for you, just go to Settings > About Phone > Software Update.
Verizon Galaxy S5 update
Verizon has rolled out another update to the Galaxy S5. Though it still sits on Android 5.0, two new features have been added: 

• "GALAXY Apps" app store will be auto installed on your device
• Fingerprint Scanner for unlocking Microsoft Exchange accounts is now enabled

The Samsung Galaxy S5 5.0 Lollipop update is now available for those with Verizon (model number SM-G900V). The update arrived in two bundles, upgrading the Verizon Galaxy S5 firmware to build number VRU1BNLC.
T-Mobile Galaxy S5 update
T-Mobile recently pushed out the Android 5.1.1 update to Galaxy S5 owners over-the-air. The update brings the Galaxy S5 up to software version G900TUVU1FOF6, and includes performance tweaks and bug fixes, as well as support for RAW and lower ISO values (providing you’re using a third-party camera app which uses Lollipop’s camera API).
AT&T Galaxy S5 update
AT&T was the last major US carrier to deliver the Android 5.0 Lollipop update to its Galaxy S5 owning customers, announcing its roll-out plans via its ATTCares Twitter account. Head to your settings > about phone > software update page to download it now.

 

Some people have been experiencing problems with Lollipop on their Galaxy S5s and Samsung has advised users to factory reset their devices. Improvements carried in Android 5.1.1 are said to make devices more stable.
If you think that Lollipop pretty Material Design interface just isn't worth the hassle due to its pile of problems, then you can read our guide on how to downgrade your Galaxy S5 back to Android KitKat.

Galaxy S5 Android M update 

The Samsung Galaxy S5 Android M update is not yet available. Android M is expected to launch globally in Q3, 2015. We will let you know when we learn more.

Galaxy S5 Android Lollipop update (UK)

The Galaxy S5 Lollipop update has been available in the UK and Europe for a while, but a recent patch brought back mute mode to the quick-settings menu. This feature had been removed when Android 5.0 first arrived (as Lollipop doesn't have a standard silent mode), but made a return with the Galaxy Note Edge running Android 5.0.1. The upgraded Lollipop firmware for the Galaxy S5 (SM-G900F) rolled out with build number G900FXXU1BOB7.
Mute mode returns to the Galaxy S5 with the latest firmware patch from Samsung.

How to downgrade the Galaxy S5 from Lollipop to KitKat

f you've updated your Galaxy S5 to Android 5.0 Lollipop and are now experiencing some Lollipop problems on the Galaxy S5 which have made you want to downgrade back to KitKat, we can show just how easy it is to downgrade the Galaxy S5 from Android 5.0 Lollipop to Android 4.4 KitKat in a snap.

Important: While the procedure is the same for everyone, depending on which carrier-branded (or international) model Galaxy S5 you have, the firmware you download will be different. Select the firmware for the exact model number of your phone. Some Galaxy S5's were on Android 4.4.4 KitKat and others were on Android 4.4.2 KitKat before updating to Lollipop.
Go to Settings > About Device to see your model number and make sure you download the latest KitKat firmware for your specific device.

Prerequisites:

• Download the Galaxy S5 firmware for your particular model onto your PC. (Follow the link and enter your model number, find the most recent version of Android (or the one you want to downgrade to) and download the zip file to your computer.)
• Download Samsung drivers on your PC (if you don't already have them installed).
• Download Odin v3.09 (on your PC).
• Charge your Galaxy S5 battery to 80%.
• Enable USB Debugging in Settings > Developer Options. (If you don't already have Developer Options enabled, go to Settings > About Phone and tap Build Number until you see the notification that you now have developer access.)

How to downgrade Galaxy S5 from Lollipop to KitKat

1. Make sure you have done a full backup of your apps and data via Samsung Kies or another backup program or app. We recommend Helium for a full backup on your PC without requiring root access.
Helium - App Sync and Backup 2. Extract the zipped firmware you downloaded for your particular Galaxy S5.
3. Turn off your Galaxy S5 and reboot in Download Mode (press Power, Home and Volume Down until you see the Android on its back and the ''Warning!'' message). Press Volume Up to proceed and enter Download Mode (aka Odin Mode).

4. Launch Odin on your PC.
5. Connect your Galaxy S5 to your PC with a USB cable and wait for Odin to recognize it. You should see the ID:COM box turn blue. If your S5 isn't recognized, make sure you have the necessary Samsung drivers installed and try again.
6. Make sure that only ''Auto-Reboot'' and "F.Reset Time'' are checked in Odin.
7. Ensure that ''Re-Partition'' is NOT CHECKED.
8. Click the AP box in Odin and navigate to the tar.md5 file from the unzipped firmware you downloaded earlier. Again, make sure you have the right firmware for your model Galaxy S5!

9. Click ''Start'' in Odin and sit back, relax and let Odin do its thing. It might take a while. Do not disconnect or turn off your Galaxy S5.
10. You will see a green ''PASS'' message when the firmware has been installed correctly.
11. Your Galaxy S5 should now reboot and be running the version of Android KitKat to which you decided to downgrade.

 

Troubleshooting

If you encounter a boot loop (your Galaxy S5 gets stuck while restarting), you can turn it off, then press and hold Volume Up, Power and Home to enter recovery and clear the cache partition – use the volume keys to scroll and Power button to confirm.
If this still doesn't work, you can do a factory reset (wipe data) from recovery. This is where doing that backup earlier comes in handy.
Your Galaxy S5 should now restart with Android KitKat back on board. You can restore your apps and data from your backup and carry on as usual with lovely safe KitKat.

How to unlock an iPhone so you can use any SIM

How to unlock and iPhone 4, 4s, 5, 5s, 5c. Our guide to getting a free unlock code for iPhones enables you to unlock an iPhone without using a jailbreak or hack. Learn how to legally unlock your iPhone.

 

How can I unlock my iPhone and use an alternative SIM from another mobile provider?
In this article we show you how to unlock all iPhones, including how to unlock iPhone 4, how to unlock iPhone 5, and how to unlock the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c. The guide includes how to unlock an iPhone for free with a free unlock code from your mobile phone company; how to get an old iPhone 4s unlock code to make old iPhones work on new networks; and how to unlock an iPhone without a jailbreak. You can get a free and legal unlock code from your network and unlock your iPhone - we show you how.

How to unlock an iPhone: Escaping your network

If you've bought a second-hand iPhone, or inherited one from a friend or family member who has updated their iPhone to a newer model, you may be wondering why your iPhone 4 (say) isn't working on your mobile network. This is likely to be because your iPhone is tied to O2, or Vodaphone, or another network. New iPhones are often SIM-locked to a particular carrier, meaning that the iPhone only works with a SIM card provided by the same carrier. In order to use the iPhone you will need to unlock it.
Having identified that the reason your iPhone doesn't work with your network is that it is locked, you will be wondering how to unlock it. How do I unlock my iPhone 4? How can I get my iPhone 5 to work with my network? These are common questions. iPhone SIM unlocking gets around this problem, enabling you to use any SIM card in your iPhone. Luckily it's easy to unlock your phone if you follow these tips.
Many people think iPhone unlocking is difficult, or illegal, and the suspect-looking shops that specialise in SIM card unlocking don't do much to suggest that iPhone unlocking is a legitimate practice. But you can get free iPhone unlock codes from your mobile phone operator, and it's all above board. We will show you how.

How do I unlock an iPhone 4, 4s, 5, 5s, or 5c?

iPhone unlocking can transform an old iPhone. Knowing how to unlock an iPhone 3GS, for example, can get you a great older iPhone at a bargain price. This tutorial will show you how to unlock you old iPhone. With your unlocked iPhone 4 or later you can use a SIM card from any network in your iPhone.

Can I unlock my iPhone?

The good news is that it's usually possible to unlock the iPhone. The bad news is that sometimes it's not so easy as it might be with other iPhone models. It depends on the phone's circumstances and your mobile phone provider.
Sometimes your network will unlock the phone for free, especially if the phone is no longer in its initial contract period. However if you haven't finished paying for the phone on your initial contract then the provider may not give you an unlock code when you move to a different provider. In which case you can attempt to unlock the phone yourself, but this may not be as cheap or easy as you'd like.

Is it legal to unlock an iPhone?

Yes. In most instances, it is perfectly legal to unlock an iPhone in the UK. Especially if you own the phone outright and have fully paid any outstanding contract. The grey area arises when you own a phone on a contract and you are still paying the contract.
If you've bought an iPhone 5S on a 24-month contract, then the monthly fee is paying for both the handset and the call allowance. This is the reason why the lock exists in the first place, and if you wish to unlock an iPhone you should check with the carrier first. Some carriers will still unlock your iPhone even if you are under contract, although they may charge a small amount first.

Do all iPhones need unlocking?

No. Apple sells many iPhones in the UK unlocked, and they can be used on all networks. Typically an iPhone that you have picked up from the Apple Store will be unlocked, and you can use it on any network. An iPhone that you have purchased from a carrier, such as O2, Three or Vodafone, will often be locked to that network.

How do I know if my iPhone is locked?

The easiest way to find out if the iPhone is locked to a network is to insert a SIM card from another network into the iPhone and see if it can make a call. Ask a friend with an iPhone if you can borrow their SIM card - it will need to be the right kind of SIM card to fit in your phone - the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4s use a Micro SIM and the iPhone 5 and 5s use a newer Nano SIM, so it's best to find a friend with the same phone.
If it can use a SIM card for a different mobile network then the iPhone is unlocked, and you're good to go. You can remove the SIM card using a SIM ejector tool (or straightened paperclip).

How to Unlock an iPhone: contact your carrier

O2: Fill out this unlocking form
Three Mobile: Call 333 from the iPhone or 0843 3733 333 from a landline.
Virgin Mobile: Call 789 from the iPhone or 0845 6000 789 from a landline.
Tesco: Phone Tesco on 0845 300 6600.
If you are a PAYG (Pay As You Go) customer you must have had the phone activated for more than 12 months. It is free to unlock. Pay monthly customers are charged £20 if they are still under contract, and it's free after the contract has ended.
Orange: Call 450 (PAYG customers) or 150 (Pay monthly).
With Orange, you are able to unlock your iPhone after 6 months, provided you are a current Orange or EE customer and have owned the iPhone for six months or longer. Your account must be in good standing. Orange charges £19.57 for unlocking.
T-mobile: Call 0845 412 5000 and request a Network Subsidy Code.
Vodafone: Call 08700 77 66 55 or 191 from your iPhone.

Get your new carrier to unlock your old phone

Sometimes your new carrier will unlock the phone for you. EE, for example, will unlock your phone for an admin fee of £20.42. You must be an EE customer for at least six months, however, and they insist on the following criteria:

1. You must be a current customer who's had the account for at least six months
2. The IMEI must not be blacklisted (we'll check this for you)
3. Pay monthly customers must have an account balance of zero - everything needs to be paid up to date

The first and best way to unlock the iPhone is to contact your carrier. If you request the iPhone unlocking then they will be able to do it at their end. You will have to wait around seven days for the unlock to work, but this is the easiest method.
This method works best when you have the SIM card for the original phone. Use it while performing the unlock process.

How to update your iPhone once it has been unlocked

Once your phone has been unlocked you will receive a confirmation on the phone unlocking from the carrier. Now follow these steps:

1. Power down the phone. Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and move your finger across.
2. Use the SIM card tool (or a straightened paper clip) to eject the SIM card holder from the side of the phone.
3. Remove the old SIM card from the SIM card holder. Place your new SIM card into the SIM card holder.
4. Reinsert the SIM card holder into the iPhone.

How do I update an unlocked phone without the SIM card?

If you've requested an unlock from your carrier, but have not got the original SIM card, you will need to reset the phone before it will be unlocked. First ensure that you have requested an unlock from the carrier. Now follow these steps

1. Back up your iPhone. Either using Backup (Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup > Back Up Now) or by connecting the iPhone to a computer and Using iTunes to perform a backup.
2. Erase your iPhone. Click on Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings.
3. Complete the setup assistant and restore from your backup.

The iPhone should now be unlocked.
See: Apple Support: iPhone: About unlocking
If you have a SIM card from a carrier that is different from your current carrier, and you've received confirmation from your current carrier that your iPhone is unlocked, follow these steps:

1. Eject your SIM card and insert a new SIM card.
2. Complete the setup process.
3. If you do not currently have another SIM card you can use, follow these steps to complete the process:
4. Back up your iPhone.
5. Erase your iPhone.
6. Complete the setup assistant and restore your backup.

Using an iPhone unlocking service

An alternative to contacting your carrier and asking them to unlock the iPhone is to use a mobile phone unlocking service. There are many retailers in most areas who will arrange an unlock code for a small fee (usually around £25). Although they aren't always reputable, you can also find online services that will unlock your iPhone, but we would advise against it. If you do decide to use one, please make sure that you read all of the small print before you buy, because they can surprise you with extra bills at the end of the process. For example, Official Unlock Phone.co.uk has a (8.5/10) Trust Pilot rating but it actually charges £80 in addition to the advertised £19.99 when you check out.

How much should I pay to unlock my iPhone?

Ideally you shouldn't pay anything to unlock your iPhone, because your carrier should unlock it for you for free. But some carriers are making admin charges of around £20. Third-party companies seem to charge between £10 and £25 to unlock an iPhone, and we wouldn't pay over £25 to unlock an iPhone. Shop around if anybody quotes you a higher price than that.
