While this iPhone security hole is n’t nearly as gaping asthe last one we covered(whichwas fixed by Apple ) , it too exploits the emergency brake call lineament in word - protected mood . In password - protected mode , there ’s an option to disable SMS preview , so if someone picks up your locked phone , they ca n’t see incoming schoolbook substance . However , if you activate a locked phone ’s pinch call mode , and it receives a text content , it ’ll show you the full textbook in trailer . And yes , this is with 2.1 . Again , a sorta nonaged security system oversight , but if you ’re first-rate - secret about your texts ( for whatever reason ) , this is definitely a problem and needs to be fixed in the next update .
