is it actually dynamically reconfigurable pins? or one of two states, pins 0-7 do this while pins 8-15 do this and vice versa

and usb is a serial form of communication

I don't know how versatile it is. it negotiates some sort of configuration with the cable, probably depends on what kind of multiplexing/routing/termination they have in there. if they wanted to route the dac out of it, it seems doable.

you can do analog audio through a digital output if you do some fancy Class-D amplifying and use the headphones as a low pass filter. I would be surprised if apple goes the DAC route instead of just doing some magic with amplifiers.

they own on the subway though and you can crank them up unless you don't know what stop you need to get off at

Its just barely versatile enough to make the cables reversible.

again, the whole point of Lightning is to be purely serial data instead of doing something dumb like having all 29 DVI pins and DVI output hardware in the phone itself

iOS will only ever speak serial data to the cable, if it ends up as an analog signal or as some other digital connector, there has to be a chip in the cable doing the conversion.

edit: the Lightning-to-30-pin adapter has a DAC for analog audio

edit 2: the original explanation when everybody was whining about the 1600x900 resolution of the HDMI adapter: https://panic.com/blog/the-lightning-digital-av-adapter-surprise/#comment-16841

also what happens if you leave yourself a voicemail?

:pt: way to do it is to restore your phone without importing a backup and see if the issue persists.

if apple transitions to a lightning connector for headphones they'll definitely need to resurrect steve jobs to explain the reasoning behind it. he was really good at explaining why something sucks and should be replaced. the new Tim style isn't really the same.

If the Lightning connector is required for an even thinner phone and the 6s already has a camera bump the future is not looking great for the iPhone 7 camera. Do people really care about the size of the camera?

get meow this wack-ass crystal prison
itd be better if there was no camera bump and they put in a bigger battery

idgaf about the 3.5mm jack if there's a good alternative. maybe they come up with really good bt headphones?

they have a ton of patents for dual cameras that simulate a camera with better optics or something like that

my main :tinfoil: is that they're working on a 3D display. they have that parallax effect in iOS 7, "3D" touch, dual camera patents, purchase of PrimeSense, and now rumours that they're making a custom OLED display right now.
