Folks, you read it right! It’s finally here; H1Siri is the first service making Siri porting to the public free of charge. You can install Siri on your iPhone 4 and iPod touch right now and get it fully ported and connected to Apple’s servers. Just follow our full step by step guide shown below.This full port of Siri is made for iPhone 4 GSM & CDMA versions and iPod Touch 4G only. Other devices are currently not supported.
If you have previously installed a jailbreak tweak known as “Siri0us” which installed Siri dictation on iOS 5 devices, it’s better to remove it to prevent crashing and conflicting.
The guys known as CD-Team developed a tweak called “H1Siri” which brings Siri’s GUI and Siri connectivity to the team’s own servers. Siri will not be connected to Apple’s servers, instead, it will be connected to private servers.
iOS 5.1 Failed To Resolve Battery Problems
Apple has not experienced everything going their way despite seeing iPhone 4S topping the sales chart. The iCloud and iOS has still undergone a variety of issues. With the release of iOS 5 , many users where able to fix long-standing issues but one thing that it failed to do is to solve the battery life problem.
Apple has participated in the discussion by confirming that iOS 5 still possess problems but also informed that they are trying to fix the problem. And we thought the battery drain issue would now be over when iOS 5.0.1 was seeded to testers. But that did not happen and the issue even spread to those who were not previous sufferers before.

What Exactly IS Carrier IQ ?
Ever since a researcher named Trevor Eckhart posted evidence that a program known as Carrier IQ is tracking mobile users’ keystrokes and activities, the Web has been abuzz trying to find out how much the program actually collects and how widespread it is.
Carrier IQ is an analytics program for mobile devices that advertises to carriers that it can “measure performance and user experience with no visible impact to your customers.” Eckhart, using his own HTC device, found that the program not only records information about app activity and battery life but also notes when users press any key on the phone and records text messages. He said the data is transmitted back to Carrier IQ’s servers.That seems to contradict a statement from Carrier IQ, which clearly said that it doesn’t record keystrokes. The company also said it does not provide tracking tools, inspect or report the content of communications or provide real-time data reporting to its customers.

Step By Step - Siri Ported To iPhone 4/3GS, iPad [iOS 5 & iOS 5.0.1]
Siri has been ported to older iOS devices, including iPhone 4 and 3GS by well known hacker chpwn and stroughtonsmith.
Since Siri was launched along with iPhone 4S as an exclusive feature to Apple’s very latest smartphone, it has scarcely been away from the headlines. Developers have been plugging away to see what the software can really do when unleashed, and if the progress thus far is anything to go by, Siri will be singing songs whilst flipping eggs for your breakfast in no time!

Developers have been plugging away to see what the software can really do when unleashed, and if the progress thus far is anything to go by, Siri will be singing songs whilst flipping eggs for your breakfast in no time!Jokes aside, though, the latest inroads only further increase the suspicion that the fruit company kept Siri as an iPhone 4S-only feature in order to increase sales. It was said that Apple’s first dual-core smartphone was the only device capable of handling the new, exciting technology; but the work of chpwn and friends has certainly made that claim appear as a simple, sensible marketing ploy.
Here is a step by step guide to port Siri on iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS or iPad on iOS 5 or iOS 5.0.1:
Apple's Siri May Pose Threat To Google Search
Is Siri poaching Internet searchers from Google? That's what The Arora Report's Nigam Arora suggested Monday, citing a "small study" he conducted to "validate the hypothesis that users of Apple's Siri are reducing Google searches."
When Arora says "small," he means it. The unscientific survey of 40 Siri users is anything but conclusive, but there's certainly a lot to chew on—not the least of which is the notion that with Siri on the new iPhone 4S, Apple may just have inserted itself into the search game with an end-around that few people saw coming.
Twenty-seven of the Siri users Arora polled said they hadn't done a single Google search since buying their iPhone 4S. The remaining 13 had conducted two Google searches on average since welcoming Siri into their lives. And "[a]ll 40 users of Siri report that they see no need to go to Google if Siri can answer their question."
Arora's informal study offers some perspective for Google chairman Eric Schmidt's recent claim before Congress that his company is not "overwhelmingly dominant" in search. Schmidt contended that Google faces a number of serious search competitors and even singled out Siri as a "significant development" in the search arena.

iPhone 4S - Battery Drain Problem & Solution
Apple said Friday that it was still trying to resolve battery drainage issues in the iPhone 4S, despite a patch released earlier this week that was supposed to fix the problem, according to AllThingsD.
Days after Apple released the iPhone 4S and iOS 5 last month, users began complaining of plummeting battery life. One user told the Guardian that he experienced a 10 percent drop every hour, and Apple engineers reportedly started contacting iPhone 4S owners about the "known issue" with its battery.
"The recent iOS software update addressed many of the battery issues that some customers experienced on their iOS 5 devices," Apple said in a statement to the tech journal. "We continue to investigate a few remaining issues."
As PCMag reported earlier on Friday, many iPhone 4S users have been complained that the iOS 5.0.1 update released Thursday didn't actually resolve the smartphone's battery problems. One user said the update did not make a lick of difference, another said it actually drained his battery even more. PCWorld reported more issues apparently resulting from the patch, like microphone failures, Wi-Fi signal loss, and cellular reception issues.
