iPhone Country Codes

Why I made this

The model regions on Apple wikis are missing some entries- and the entries are lacking some information that I would be critical for international buyers: there are some extreme differences between features in some regions: FaceTime support, Dual SIM support, etc.

What's worse is some regions have multiple codes, and sometimes even imported devices from other regions.

Unfortunately, Apple does not seem to acknowledge these region numbers exist and all and resort to nebulous claims about the feature differences, and it doesnt help that there are some conflicting reports on the internet.

So I'm going to try my best to maintain an up-to-date list. Any and all confirmations, additions and denials here would be extremely helpful. Please just leave a comment.

Hexadecimal color code for transparency

How to set transparency with hex value ?

For example, you want to set 40% alpha transparence to #000000 (black color), you need to add 66 like this #66000000.

Burrow

Burrow is a proposal for a federated coinpool on top of hedgehog channels. The coinpool can have a bunch of cool properties:

a single-honest-party assumption, so the federation can't rug any user unless the keyholders in the federation are all scoundrels
users can onboard into the pool without an on-chain transaction (e.g. maybe you send in coins via lightning, or maybe another user gives you your first coins from within the pool)
every onboarded user gets their own wallet interface with their own personal balance and Send/Receive buttons

The process is pretty similar to the standard installation from source except for some fixes that you will have to make during the installation. I will keep the same header so you can keep a track on both guide at the same time (follow the official website for more explication, I will only write the steps to make).
