How can I use phone call sharing on my iPhone 4S?

I have an iPhone 4S running on the latest version of iOS (8.1) and a Macbook Pro Retina (Late 2013) running latest version of OS X Yosemite (10.10 (14A389)). This phone does not have FaceTime as it was purchased in the UAE and it is apparently one of the countries that blocks access to FaceTime, so I cannot use FaceTime to " turn on “iPhone Cellular Calls" in preferences. I have tried all other methods mentioned in this article: Get help using Continuity with iOS 8 and OS X Yosemite - Apple Support

Jailbreaking is not done to attract malware and possibility and in most cases it is not the case. You are supposedly assuming that jailbreaking is done as jailbreakers "like malware". Your statement is wrong as in essence, jailbreaking your iPhone means freeing it from the limitations imposed on it by your carrier, whether that's AT&T or Verizon, and Apple. It lets you do everything from customizing the look of your iPhone to installing third-party applications (such as titles that are not authorized and available in the App Store) and customized ringtones on it. Depending on how far you're willing to go, you can do even more than that: Jailbreaking even lets you to unlock your phone so you can use it with a carrier other than the one from which you purchased it and in my case you can enable continuity.
The statement was in the spirit of irony. And no, I do not assume users jailbreak because they actually want malware. However, jailbreaking does indeed make the device far more susceptible to such, and it also occurs far more than you seem to think.

  • How can i use "phone relay" on a iPad mini over iPhone created wifi hotspot?

    How can i use "phone relay" on a iPad mini over iPhone created wifi hotspot?
    It works nicely over home wifi, but for example, i am sitting in my car, phone is in my pocket and I'm using the iPad, call comes in and i don't want to start digging for my phone.
    Is there any way?
    devices:
    iPad mini cellular (no SIM card at the moment)
    iPhone 5S
    Thanks!

    well yes, but it basically makes wifi for the other devices, it basically mimics wifi.
    as i get from your answer, it is not possible?
    it would be common sense to make it work this way also. directly from device to device. no bounce between WiFi router
    Then again, common sense is not that common these days...

  • How can I use system call in kernel loadable module?

    Hi,
    I want to use system call (shmat, mmap,...) in kernel module.
    When kernel module is loaded, it cause system error (undefined symbol name 'shmat', 'mmap').
    How can I use system call in kernel module ?
    Thanks in advance.
    david joo

    You cannot use system calls in the kernel modules.
    Read 'Writing Device Drivers' answerbook - it lists the set of interfaces (known as DDI/DDK) that are supposed to be used instead.
    Hope this helps...

    Talking caller ID is not a feature of the iPhone. If by "wacky apps" you mean the ones that make custom ring tones for each contact from their name, that's your best bet.

    You can't buy another one.  You have to reuse one of the accounts previously set up on your phone, or create a new one to use on another iOS device (running iOS 5 or higher) or Mac (running OS X 10.7.2 or higher), if you have one.

  • How can i use my pc internet on my iphone 4 (ios7) via usb?

    hallo everyone,
    i want get internet from pc on iphone. how can i use my pc internet on my iphone 4 (ios7) via usb? (not iphone internet on pc). help me please

    That is actually pretty easy.
    Ensure that Bluetooth is enabled on your phone.
    Right mouse click on the Bluetooth system tray icon and select "Add new connection"
    Select your phone ..
    Enter a pincode e.g. 0000
    Enter the same pincode on the phone side as well.
    Click in the "Advanced Modem settings window the "Advanced Modem Settings" button. There should be a string which was auto detected.
    Just confirm the windows until the setup is finished. Open the IE confirm select the just configured DUN connection and browse the internet.
    You need to enter the Advanced modem string manually if it could not be detected. In this case you have to check your ISP website in order to
    find the suitable GPRS or HSDPA string, phone number, username and password for a proper setup. If you enter the wrong data you will encounter
    a connection failed error message.

  • How can I use a bad IMEI AT&T iphone 5 with straight talk ?

    Someone sold me a bad IMEI AT&T iphone 5. I had an AT&T iphone 4 with straight talk prior to buying this phone. I didn't know the IMEI was bad so I bought the iphone 5 hoping to switch. I cut my SIM card and put it into the iphone 5. Everything worked perfectly fine so I went ahead and gave the dude the money. I went to sleep and wake up the next day and try to make a call and I get a message saying my phone has been blocked from the network. I contacted straight talk and they thought it was a problem of theirs so somehow they got my phone to work again. Everything was good , calls, texts , and data. 2 hours later, the same problem happens. So I call straight talk again , tell them the problem. They fix It again, 2 hours later , THE SAME PROBLEM. I gave up this time and began looking for answers. Is there any way I can use this iphone 5 with straight talk ? There was a comment I saw through my search for answers where if I get another straight talk sim everything would work again. Is this true? How can I use a bad IMEI AT&T iphone 5 with straight talk ?

    If that IMEI has been blacklisted by AT&T, then it is blacklisted by all USA carriers, as well as several participating Canadian and Mexican carriers.
    As of 31 October 2012, USA Cellular Providers are sharing a common IMEI/ESN database to ensure that phones blacklisted on one carrier can't be activated on another carrier.  AT&T and T-Mobile are also participating members of the GSM-networks global shared blacklists.

  • How Can I Use Bluetooth For Sharing With iPhones?

    Hello, i have an iPod touch 3rd Gen. 32GB, And I'm Wondering How Could I Share Music or Photos With My Cousin's iPhone (Jailbroken iPhone), When I Turn The Bluetooth On, Nothing Shows Up On My iPod Or On Here iPhone,
    So How Could I Share Things With Her I Have ''File Share'' And ''Bump'' Apps
    So what should I Do???

    You can't share music over air or by Bluetooth because of several reasons of which is understandable by apple. Apple doesn’t provide any way for you to copy files from your iPod back to your Mac/ between iPods or iPhones. While there are legitimate reasons for blocking bi-directional copying— which again the word music piracy comes to the mind
    The only thing that I heard that you could share with iPhone to iPhone/ iPod touch is photos&contacts an app called "bump" and "Bluetooth photo share". With those applications you and your friend can share photos/phone contacts and other kind of files.
    "Bump" application link below:

  • How can I use the call's list?

    Dear friends,
    I have some problems with a call I received and with my boss.
    On my Iphone 4S I can see the list of the last calls. Let's say that I have a 45minutes incoming call from my friend. Looking the detail by the arrow, on the right, I can see also other information, like the complete number and the lenght of the call (45 min, in this case).
    Now the point: someone heard me during the call and said I got that phone call form someone else!
    I replied that is not possible: you can modify the name of the contact, in this case it seems that I got the call from the new name, but I also showed that if you modify the number too (yes, it's possible) the call disappears from the call list!
    Now I have the complete call list and I can show that the "trick" is not possible, but they don't believe me and, since the question is quite important, I'm risking to loose my job.
    Can someone give me the confirmation that is not possible to do this? I mean, I want to be sure of my theory that no one can change name and number of the call and keep the call amongst all the other calls...
    Many thanks in advance for your help!
    Mark

    You cannot use your iPhone as a normal storage system. The only way to get documents and other stuff on it is to sync via iTunes (unless you use an app like evernote, which has its own sync).

  • How can I receive phone calls in my iPad cellular?

    I've an iPad wifi+cellular, shouldn't be able to do and receive call as a regular phone?

    MacPaint:
    Do you have a cellular radio in your iPad AIR?
    It would probably have a different cell phone number than your iPhone 4s to make and receive cell phone calls.
    If you have cellular phone call service for your iPad air and not just data service, one should be able to use the iPad as a large iPhone.
    If your service provider for the callular radio in the iPad air is only providing data service, then you may not be able to make and receive calls.
    iOS8 introduced a lot of connectivity between Apple devices.  You can make and receive calls on wifi connected devices to your iPhone, including an apple computer with wifi running MAC OSX 10.10.   You can also send text messages through your iPhone using other Apple devices.   It is as if you are remotely controlling your iPhone over the wifi connection with other Apple products.
