Why is ios such a buggy piece of shit?
>>52929845
That's one of the better and more believable shops I've seen
If people were willing to cook their phones like hot pockets because of that quick-charge one then at least someone's gotta fall for this
Both Android and iOS are pos but you see more about Apple posted here when there's a bug because /g/ likes to make Apple users life miserable.
>>52929913
because iPhones are supposed to be premium, and when you pay for a premium product you shouldn't have to put up with this shit.
>>52929845

There's your answer.

It literally does nothing. This has been patched since iOS 10.4 Tiger

S-so when iFags finally get wireless charging, can we convince them of a LifeHack that involves wireless charging over electric stove tops? Maybe include something about the inductive effect of the charger coils being replicated by the inductive cooking surfaces.
>>52930223
have to include something about the phone being heatproof thanks to the ultratough new metal unibody developed by apple.

Just for the record, i didnt do this to my phone or anyithing but is there any way to fix your phone after doing this?
>>52929845
Coded by literal monkeys who cannot port 32bit to 64bit correctly.
I tried to do this on my iPod Touch gen4 which has iOS6 and in both positive and negative timezones and it still booted.
>>52930029
>I don't trust /pol/
/pol/ is ALWAYS right. No exceptions.
>>52929870
What did it want them to do to their phone?
>>52931366
Newer iOS devices won't boot if you do this until the battery goes flat, letting the device reset to the factory time settings, or the battery is removed, whichever you do first.
Though most people can't remove the battery themselves, so it's an Apple Store visit.
>>52931407
Sorry, I should have clarified. I meant the hot pockets one
I've honestly always kinda hated these, and I don't even use iOS. Seems overly malicious to want to actually break somebody's $800 phone; kinda goes beyond "just trolling lol!"
>>52930830
You fucked up, anon.
>>52931431
Microwaving their phone. What do you think happens to electronics in the microwave?
How to cook eggs on your iphone
>>52930223
IIRC you could charge some of the wireless charging Lumias with inductive stoves and not break them
>>52931454
I-I thought it would've been something more elaborate than microwaving their phones.
>>52929921
Apple products are not premium, they're just average computers with an over-designed case. They had no way to beat IBM in the 80s on hardware, so Jobs went with the design shtick. And it paid off much later, mostly due to a cultural shift, which made people obsessed with lifestyle and status objects.
Behind that polish it's basically the new AOL.
>>52929913
Replace Windows with Android.
>>52931442
If someone is retarded enough to do this without verifying or doing any research whatsoever, then they deserve whatever bad comes of it as a result.

You could swap Android and Apple/iOS as well, honestly.

>priced as a premium product
Doesn't mean that it is a premium product.
I can buy a raspberry pi, install a Linux distro on it, then sell it as a "premium portable computer" for $200.
Does that make it a premium product? No, it just means I'm scamming the fuck out of people by making it seem like a premium product.
Also

Sure is a premium product!

Apple is marketed as premium. There is no such thing as premium.

>>52931718
The high price makes the consumer think its premium.
Alright I fucked up. Tried it on my phone earlier today and now it's screwed. Go ahead and laugh. Call me a faggot. I should've known better. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this mess? I miss shitposting while I shit.
Seriously, iOS is a buggy piece of shit.
The Podcast app is a useless bugged piece of shit.
Every view can be broken easily if you use something like swiftkey because of Apples forced bullshit design patterns.
A lot of apps look like shit on the iPhone 6S Plus (even apps like Spotify) with full hd screen because of Apples bullshit design patterns and because everyone designed his app for 2010 tier phones.
iOS 9.0 was probably the most bugged iOS in the history of Apple, it was a fucking terrible joke and mostly unusable. I have no idea how they can get away with shit like this. But then again, Microsoft has been doing it for over two decades now.

I'm gonna take it on down to the store I got it from and see what do. Thanks anons. Although I'm pissed that I fell for it I still find it humorous.
>>52931747
^This is the ad in particular that I fell for. I just took a quick glance and thought why the hell not. Changing the date was the last thing I thought would ever fuck up my phone. Thanks for proving me wrong apple.
>>52929921
It amazes me that you can't see the irony in the fact that you blither on about how "iOS shouldn't do this, ITS SHIT TO USE" when the only thing you're pointing out is an abstract bug that no user would ever do on their own. Such an oversight is completely reasonable to anyone who has actually had to develop and publish software before, considering no one in the right mind would change the date to January 1st under normal applications.
>>52938374
Change the date to Janurary 1st, 1970.*
I hope I got this in before the autistic try pointing out my typo as an error in my point.
>uses Apple for casual, ease of use - occasionally browsing the web, listening to music, browsing pics & using WhatsApp/iMessage

Don't understand desu, iOS/Android seemingly have two different target markets so why would you compare them
>>52934439
look, it may shock you to know but people with JOBS (no pun intended) can afford to buy a new iphone if they want.
I mean I didn't break mine but if I did it would have just given me an excuse to go from 6 to 6s.
And if I had a 6s I'd just wait for a 7.
Android losers can't wrap their heads around this because they're NEETs who depend on their mommy to buy them their cheapo phones.
This isn't damage control cause I'm literally laughing my ass of non-ironically that you losers would even bother with this stuff instead of trying to get your tiny microdicks wet.
I mean I know you've abandoned that prospect because god knows no one wants you but you should at least try to lose some fat, gawd...

It's doesn't brick it holy shit I just plugged it into itunes and updated the OS. Fixed it np senpai.
>>52943742
Only time my Android phone got buggy and crashed was when I undervolted too much and it got unstable on my nexus 5 or when I installed an aosp kernel on my g3 stock rom because the dev didn't clarify that.
Compared to Android ios is shit.
>>52943675
>revolutionizing battery technology forever through a firmware update

Besides, can you name a SINGLE time Apple put out an easter egg?
It would delegitimatize their cool, sleek "all business all the time wave of the future" aesthetic in an instant.
>>52929845
I thought this prank might just less destructive than the usual iPhone pranks, but it actually does break the phone to change the date?

It's a fashion accessory so it's not really supposed to function as more than that. Don't really understand why people expect so much out of it
>>52929845
Applels software quality never was the best, but it's declining as we speak.
Unfortunately it's in good company with that Adware company and that cheap korean crap company.
>>52946289
Because it's the price of 4 or 5 android or windows phones that are both fast enough for most iPhone users while lacking many of their features.
Usually more expensive products are better. You get what you pay for.
>>52933942
Never forget how Aplel software could be crashed by the spell checker.
>>52946343
>Usually more expensive products are better.
Not the iPhone. Set the date to 1970 and get ready for a wild ride.
>>52946343
>Usually more expensive products are better. You get what you pay for.
Delusional icucks will buy a piece of dried shit with an apple logo so that logic doesn't really apply here
>>52938374
I'm torn here...
A) Apple's stuff is generally less buggy and more secure. (Note that I did not say no bugs or 100% secure.) That's why poor fags like to jump up and down screaming "SEE!!!" when a major bug or exploit is found.
B) At the same time...damn it Apple, a simple date bug like this should NOT be in your fucking OS. Did you outsource this part of the code base to PooLand or something? Your code quality has gone downhill since Jobs died and it needs to stop unless you want to prove all the "hurr durr Apple is premium shit" faggots right.
so the flaw of thinking this will "forever" break someone's phone is if the battery dies to true 0. so if the phone is constantly powered on until it truly dies, this issue is null and void and your meemz are just another middle school babby attack

>>52930029
The start of Jan 1 1970 is where Unix time counts from in seconds. It is impossible to store a time value lower than this with the way it counts. Something that iOS does somewhere in the OS then delivers a date before then, which results in an integer underflow and the phone then shits itself.

Stop being such a fucking drone you cunt.
Apple has been going the same way as MS for a while now.
iOS 9 was a fucking joke, buggier than anything Android has thrown on the market in the last years.
El Capitan was just as much of a mess. Broken rights management, inability to install a recent version of Xcode, etc.
