Disable Carrier IQ on iPhone

Carrier IQ is a piece of software installed on millions of mobile phones that logs everything their users do, from what websites they browse to what their text messages say.

Though this has been used for a long time, it raised some privacy concerns in the US.

Turning of this on your iPhone is pretty simple.

Go to Settings => General => About => Diagnostics and Usage

and tap Don’t Send.

Job done.

However, this software is not used by any network providers in the UK.

What happen to your iPhone when you leave it in parked car?

What happen to your iPhone when you keep it on Microwave Oven? LOL :)

What happen to your iPhone when it is kept in parked car?

Recently I left my iPhone in my car at parking area. Couple of hours latter I realized, and went back to my car and shocked when I looked at the phone display.

This is what will happen to your iPhone if you keep it on parked car.

It states “iPhone needs to cool down before you can use it”. Also the surface of the phone was very hot.

I did not know what to do then; just kept it on Freezer (crazy…) to cool down the temperature for 5 minutes :) And it came back to normal state. I would not recommend you to do this, as the phone gets cool down if you keep it in normal/room temperature.

Then searched on Apple site to understand the reason for such behavior and found some interesting points…

Keep points are…

Store the device in a place where the temperature is between -20º and 45º C (-4º to 113º F). Don’t leave the device in your car, because temperatures in parked cars can exceed this range.

Leaving the device in a car on a hot day

Leaving it in direct sunlight for extended amounts of time

Using certain features in hot conditions or direct sunlight for long periods of time, such as GPS tracking in a car on a sunny day or listening to music while in direct sunlight

Please go through Apple’s recommendations for detailed information and better understanding.

Keep your iPhone safe.
