    College athlete unions and the argument about compensation owed to these students...

    Like I said, we obviously disagree on many levels but I just couldn't help thinking of this thread when I heard the NCAA lost its recent antitrust case against Ed O'Bannon/student athletes based on the very points I raised, i.e. protecting their rights to prosper off their own likenesses etc...

    iPhone4 'this device isn't eligible for the requested build'

    So you're tethered or not? Other than the normal things you already mentioned and you're truly in DFU mode then...IDK, turn off any firewall/anti virus. Are you using the correct fw? You can try to manually download the ispw/firmware from an alternative source and installing. Just make...

    College athlete unions and the argument about compensation owed to these students...

    Unlike you, I haven't intentionally insulted anyone ...but yes, you have misconstrued my original argument and subsequent opinion regarding others responses, which IMO were rooted in jealously. Please re-read my OP and subsequent posts. Feel free to quote me as to where I personally insulted...

    College athlete unions and the argument about compensation owed to these students...

    So you didn't misrepresent what I said? You repeatedly quoted me as saying they should be paid. Never did I say or allude they "must" be paid. I said they should have the right, not the obligation to profit off their own identity. I most certainly accept everyone else's opinion but that's...

    College athlete unions and the argument about compensation owed to these students...

    I've never made a pot shot anymore than yourself. Please quote my elementary potshots. I concur, give it a break bud. I never claimed to have a "higher" understanding yet I'm not sure we're having a conversation if only one side is acknowledging the other. ...and sorry, No, I don't see my...

    Re: College athlete unions and the argument about compensation owed to these stud... Wow, you're really reaching by trying to equate a Girl Scout cookie fund raiser with a multibillion dollar farm system business. ...and BTW, my reference to them risking their bodies was in response to the...

    Screen Protector - Yes or NO?

    Always use them. I usually buy the cheap 3x-5x plain clear ones. Some are better than others but in general they work great. If they do get a scratch, I put a new one on. They've lasted as long as my device has in most cases. I never really liked the older more expensive orange peel zagg...

    5 to 5s? Any good?

    Come on, Hong Kong Fooey ...we karate chopped the home button. JK I've tried a family members 5S but I chose to hold on to my iP5's & wait for the 6. IMO, the finger print scanner was nice but the speed enhancement over the 5 didn't seem significant enough to justify me upgrading. It surely...

    NOW,this is something

    When videopane was first released, everyone asked why he didn't just implement it as a multitasking option then. You know similar to Quasar but just like this video shows. I guess the pro widgets fad pushed him to realize there's a demand, in some form or another.

    College athlete unions and the argument about compensation owed to these students...

    You obviously didn't read or understand my argument then. I guess you're the latter, obviously jealous. LOL My argument wasn't about how much money the NCAA makes....That's irrelevant. I'm not anti-capitalism. You give the impression every student athlete is under scholarship. The everyday...

    College athlete unions and the argument about compensation owed to these students...

    IMO, a compromise has to be made here. Let's be honest, each uses/needs each other. While the students may be getting special treatment & a so called "free" ride, they're also putting in many extra hours of non game day preparation in the process. The NCAA has gotten away with exploiting...

    Have You Ever Returned An iDevice from Not Working And How Many Times?

    I had a few issues with an original iPhone5 purchased within first 2 weeks of release. First off, straight out of the box it had obvious scratches along the bezel (which apparently many people experienced.) More importantly, I had a a weird issue where white boxes would appear at the top of...

    iPad Messages says user not registered with iMessage service

    Please, can you try to answer the questions asked with a little more detail. If not, there's no point in trying to help you. So, did you ever get into any safemode state? If so, by which method? If your problem is related to a tweak (that hasn't altered system files) then going into safemode...

    Camera keeps crashing -- iphone 5 gsm ios 7.0.4 evasion 7 jailbreak

    Put in safemode, if problem goes away, it's a tweak causing it. Use something like icleaner Pro to disable substrate addons one by one until you find the one causing the problem. Then you can determine which tweak that addon belongs to & delete that tweak from cydia (just make sure to...

    Best Cydia Tweaks for iOS 7 and iPhone 5S/5 for March 2014

    FYI...it's nearly impossible to "brick" your device simply by jailbreaking it. This is one of biggest misnomers people have regarding jailbreaking. If something goes wrong, you can just restore your device and you'll be fine. It's not uncommon though for people to have other issues. You may...

    iPad Messages says user not registered with iMessage service

    Without knowing what you have installed, have you tried signing in/out while in safemode? Barring you have altered your system files, that would help to eliminate the jailbreak as a contributing factor/cause.

    AT&T Unlock Personal Hotspot without jailbreak

    No, I hear you. I pay for (so called) unlimited data ...But yeah, as far as tethering goes, that's why I'm telling you it isn't necessarily true that they'll catch you. It depends on which devices & how much data you use. Standard iOS devices should be fine (i.e. iPods, iPads etc.). People...

    Anyone That Has Multiple iPads Any Generation - Which Is Your Favorite And Why?

    I have an ipad3 and the mini2. Even though the mini2 is faster, I still use the larger ipad3 more. I use the mini2 in the car. If I needed to purchase a single new iPad, I would go with the Air.

    AT&T Unlock Personal Hotspot without jailbreak

    If you read my last post, a tethering plan didn't even exist when I first agreed to my unlimited plan so how could I steal it? ...but granted, using your logic, that's exactly what AT&T did when they first imposed throttling. They themselves were "stealing"/ acting as their own in house Robin...
