Unedited press release follows:
Ultimate Entertainment With New HDMI Cables From Sony
High Performance Line-Up With 3D Support and Ethernet
LONDON–(November 2, 2010) -
* New high-speed HDMI cable line-up for enjoying Full HD 1080p Blu-ray Disc™ movies and PlayStation®3 gaming
* Full HD 3D compatible
* Supports all new HDMI features
* Premium quality conductor
* Range of lengths from 1m up to 10m, plus flat cable, swivel connector and Mini connector
* Full HD 3D compatible
* Supports all new HDMI features
* Premium quality conductor
* Range of lengths from 1m up to 10m, plus flat cable, swivel connector and Mini connector
The all-new family of high-performance
HDMI cables from Sony delivers the ultimate entertainment experience
with sparkling Full HD video and sound. You’ll enjoy premium performance
and reliability, whether you’re watching movies on Blu-ray Disc™,
PlayStation®3 gaming or viewing 3D images captured with your digital
camera on TV. They’re also the first cables by Sony to offer full
compatibility with the latest features, allowing Ethernet connectivity
via HDMI plus other advanced entertainment features.
Available in a range of lengths from 1m up
to 10m (depends on model), all new HDMI cables let you enjoy Full HD
video and multi-channel digital surround sound from a single
high-bandwidth cable. Cables are 3D-rated, letting you enjoy spectacular
images from compatible sources on your 3D TV. High speed transfer
performance also supports extended resolutions up to 4k — that’s four
times the resolution of HD 1080 — as used in many state-of-the-art
digital cinemas.
Premium performance with any signal source
is further ensued by 24K gold plated connectors for extra durability. A
new plug design makes it easy to distinguish between upper and lower
faces of the connector body, assisting with fumble-free hook-ups.
The HMDI cables offer full support for advanced features included in the latest HDMI features:
* HDMI Ethernet Channel (HEC): combines HD
video, audio and high-speed data in a single cable. HEC simplifies
networking between Internet-capable TVs and other devices with minimised
cabling requirements. Note: Requires HEC-enabled TV and connected
device
* Audio Return Channel (ARC): enables
‘upstream’ audio connections (e.g. from TV’s integrated tuner to A/V
amplifier), thus simplifying cabling between TV and A/V system. Note:
Requires ARC-enabled TV and connected device
* 3D: supports a wide range of standard 3D formats up to 1080p resolution.
* Quad Full HD resolution, at 3840 x 2160: supports ultra-high resolution — as used in many 3D digital cinema systems.
* Colour spaces: support for extended
colour spaces allows reproduction of rich, lifelike colours when
displaying images on TV from a digital camera.
* New Mini (type C) connector (DLC-HEM**):
allows direct connection between Handycam®, Cyber-shot™, a and Bloggie™
and TV or 3D TV.

Gevey sim/Gevey PRO FAQs
This excellent gevey sim FAQ is for the current sim gevey users who are facing problems like No Sim error, Data Roaming, Caller ID, Data Connection Drops, etc.. This FAQ will also be helpful for users who want to buy GEVEY Sim in the future.
Q: I get “No SIM” after I put my SIM card in the phone with Gevey.
A: Assuming both your SIM and Gevey are working, the underside of your MicroSIM may be touching the chip on the SIM interposer and shorting it. Cut away some more to give enough clearance between the SIM and the chip.
Q: I had to enable “Data Roaming” in order to use mobile data, would this incur a lot of roaming charges?
A: No. Data roaming needs to be enabled because the way this exploit works, your network will always bill your call/SMS/Data correctly as before.
Q: My caller ID is not working and my SMS threads are fragmented, why?
A: The “unlock” causes the phone to use 001 as the default MNC, which has no matching country code and your phone fails to map caller ID to your country. There are many ways to get around it, e.g. manually adding the country code to every number in contacts, adding custom carrier bundles for 001/01 or a network reset/full reset. A more consistent method is to open /System/Library/Frameworks/UIKit.framework/PhoneFormats/UIMobileCountryCodes.plist and add the highlighted part:
Replace %Your Country Code% with ISO3611 alpha-2 country code for your locale: nz for New Zealand, jp for Japan etc.
Q: My data connection dropped out and I cannot get data on 2G or 3G, I have checked my APN settings and they are correct.
A: Use your SIM in any unlocked phone with GPRS functionality once to re-establish data session; expect to do this on a regular basis.
Q: I have full signal bars and I can call any number I want normally; but when other people call me it says number is not listed or goes directly to voice mail.
A: I have explained earlier that you need to obtain a TMSI from the network to connect. Theoretically the TMSI will stay with your number as long as your phone remain connected, and when you move between cells it is passed to the next base station so you don’t have to call 112 again.
Nevertheless the carriers usually configure their network to refresh TMSI periodically for security and administrative purposes. It has also known that some cells, particularly the ones serving train stations and major road intersections, require a TMSI refresh following a hand-off(Because users tend to move in and out of coverage very rapidly, it gets to hard to locate a user if the same TMSI is reused).
Your phone will not recognise the refresh because it is for your original IMSI and your phone is still on the test IMSI starting with 80900101. You can call because your old TMSI did not really expire and is hence accepted, however the network is unable to locate you because it uses the new TMSI which has never been updated on your phone.
Out of all the issues with the Gevey this one stands out as the most deleterious, and there is nothing you can do to stop it from happening. In fact you cannot even tell because the signal bars will appear normal and you can dial out perfectly fine. The only way out is to restart the phone and start over to match the TMSI.
Q: Help, my SIM is stuck and I can’t take it out!
A: Do not force your SIM tray if this happens, you are going to cause more damage. Push it all the way back in and tap the phone a few times, gently but firmly, against the palm of your other hand or any soft object e.g. a large pillow. If this had failed to free the SIM tray you will have to take your phone for repairs. (If you are feeling particularly adventurous, you can do it yourself by following this excellent guide created by iFixit; however do this at your own risk and be prepared to lose your warranty because one of the screws cannot be accessed without breaking the warranty seal)
Don’t get me wrong and think I am scaring you; this can happen to anybody but it is more likely with the extra thickness provided by the interposer.
Update 1:
Q: My battery level seems to go down very quickly now…
A: Now there are two possibilities, one is that you are simply not used to the i4 acting more than an iPod. cellular transmission can use a lot of battery power, especially on 3G and whenever the reception is poor. However if your data usage listed under Settings/General/Usage seems to be too much AND you have hacktivated your i4 (activated using limera1n/redsn0w etc) then chances are your problems is real.
If you never used and does not need push notifications, you can simply delete /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.apple.apsd.plist and restart your phone. Any battery drain caused by hacktivation will cease however push service itself will also be gone. Alternatively use many of other solutions available (PushFix, PushDoctor, SAM) that all fix the problem to a varying degree.
Q: Which carrier bundle should I use?
A:Your default carrier settings is stored under CarrierLab.bundle, which is actually not that bad since it allows free editing of the APN settings. If you need to get VM or VVM working, Wortel’s patch has to be installed first before you can edit the bundle.
Carrier Logos should go to your actual carrier’s folder, not CarrierLabs since your phone will be “roaming” on your actual network.
