They manage to bypass the detection system of unauthorized accessories that has iOS 7

A few days ago we learned that the first beta of iOS 7 implemented a new unauthorized accessory detection system. If we connect something to the Lightning port and it is not from a manufacturer that has paid for the Apple certificate, we will get a message on the screen indicating that said accessory could not work correctly.

In the same way that it detects the "fake" accessory, Apple could implement a much more drastic measure preventing these accessories from working properly, fortunately, that moment has not yet come.

As often happens, the law made, the trap made. There is already a manufacturer that has managed to skip the new Appl measuree in iOS 7, making the system believe that it is a certified accessory.

The joy at this news will not last long since Apple may release a new update and we would be as at the beginning, that is, with the possibility that all unauthorized accessories could become useless at any time.

We will see what is the policy adopted by the company for the next few months but it seems that they are determined to wipe out the whole cheap aftermarket that do not comply with their quality policies and, obviously, have not gone through the checkout to acquire the corresponding license to use Lightning.

    Well, that's good .. Since in case we pay more than € 600 for the iphone now we will also have to pay € 30 each time the charger breaks .. Yes sir .. They continue so they will stay longer alone ..

    Inmitaa Romero, be careful with what you say because a Chinese cable can leave you the terminal to pull. Indeed, a terminal of more than 600 euros is not to be used with cables of 6 euros. Nor is it necessary to spend 30 on Apple's, there are brands like Belkin that offer good accessories with more understandable prices.

    With this of the usb and generic chargers apple leaves me crazy! Here you can not get anything I broke my charger and had to pay dearly for a new one on top of it, wait 15 days for a garron to arrive this from apple!

    I don't understand how people can expose the iPhone by buying cheap accessories, instead of buying them directly from apple ...

    1.    iPhone said

      It is not about exposing the iPhone, but about whether you have enough money to pay € 35 instead of € 4 for the same.

      Because Apple is one of the most expensive companies in the world in technology.

    Eeeeeeee then if you don't like Apple, why do you buy it, I have it and I buy it with all the consequences, but another thing I tell you, you have to be a very jerk to screw up a charger that something wants something costs him. As those on the page say, take one for 6 euros and the same collar is more expensive than the greyhound ale there is that friendsssssssss

    For this and for many more things, it is because of what, although I carry with Apple and iPhone with iPhone 3G, 3GS and Iphone 4, after 5 years of iPhone, yesterday I sold my iPhone 4 and I bought the LG Optimus G.

    Apple only wants users willing to checkout and pay more and more for accessories, applications, etc.

    They obsolete their devices when they want to.

    Example, on one of the PCs, s with Pentiun 4, I keep installing the windows that I want, I'll go better or worse, but I can install it, on the MACs, when they decide that they no longer want you to install a new OS, because take by the bag, you keep what you had and fewer and fewer applications will work for you.

    On the iPhone the same, my 3G I still have it, but as an ornament, with the last update that allowed me to have 4.1, well the same, to take it up the ass, I can not work with most of the applications, because if I want to continue working whassap or another, or I have a more current IOS or nothing, and since they do not let me put another more modern IOS, then nothing.

    Of my own idea are many friends and family of mine, who are reaching the point of switching to Android in spite of them, but Apple is forcing us.

    Anyway, a shame, they lose, the Booms pass by and then if I've seen you I don't remember.

      Ha, and on Android they don't do the same to you? It's called programmed obsolescence and all household appliances and technology have it.

      You bought an Optimus G and you say it proud? Do you use pentium 4 with windows? No offense, but since you don't know much about technology, my friend, android is an excellent OS, what is very bad is the manufacturers of their mobiles, without generalizing the great majority, your 3G is a phone for a long time, but compare one of That same year and you will see that you could not even update it to a next OS, you sold your iPhone 4 which is a phone from more than 2 years ago and I assure you that it worked better than the LG that you just bought and especially if that LG lasts 2 years

    The lightning cable has little resistance, it tends to "break" very easily.
    I bought a generic cable, I got that message in the first beta of iOS 7 and it did not support charging.
    Luckily in that place I found a used one at the same price. This Apple measure is very abusive against users with a "not so good" economy.
