Once a year members of the jailbreak community from around the globe congregate at WWJC, better known as JailbreakCon. It's a great place to learn more about jailbreak itself, to listen to the pioneers and the developers speak, and to network with other jailbreak enthusiasts. This year WWJC takes place April 12th and 13th at the South San Francisco conference center, and I'll be there!
Tickets to WWJC 2014 are $10 for anyone under the age of 18 and $30 for adults. A ticket gets you admission throughout the entire event as well as lunch both days. Ticket sales are processed through Cydia so you can buy then either through the Cydia app or online via the link below.
If you plan on attending, be sure to shout out and let me know in the comments! Hopefully I'll see some of you in San Francisco soon! For those not attending, stay tuned for coverage of the event right here on iMore!

With World of Tanks Blitz still in development, the only proper alternative on Android is Tanktastic. But that is due to change early next year. Game Insight, publisher of the My Country series and Dragon Eternity is preparing to bring their largest game yet to Android: Tank Domination.
With 10-against-10 online battles, a large array of realistic tanks, and even the celebrity voice talent of Michael Ironside, Tank Domination aims to be a serious contender in the tank combat genre. We recently visited Game Insight in San Francisco to try the game out and came away impressed. Head past the break for gameplay details and our hands-on video with the iPad version.

We've already given you some suggestions on how to fix issues with wallpaper resizing in iOS 7 and Wallpaper Fix is another technique, albeit a simpler one. Just choose the image you'd like to use as a wallpaper on your iPhone or iPad inside of Wallpaper Fix, resize it, and export it to your Camera Roll. That's all there is to it.
While disabling Parallax can help a little when it comes to wallpapers being magnified in iOS 7, it doesn't completely solve the problem. That's where apps like Wallpaper Fix are gaining some traction since they fix an issue that Apple has yet to address. Wallpaper Fix lets you freely zoom in and out and even rotate an image in order to produce the desired results.
On the iPhone Wallpaper Fix is pretty straight forward. Just size the image where you'd like and export it to your Camera Roll. From there you can hop into the Photos app and apply it to your Lock and Home screens. On the iPad, the process is just as easy even though I'd advice sizing the image and turning your iPad to test it in both portrait and landscape. Find a position you're happy with in both orientations before exporting it. The only thing I'd like to see added to Wallpaper Fix is a preview of the Lock screen, not just the Home screen.
Wallpaper Fix may be a simple app but for folks who change their wallpapers regularly and find iOS 7 giving them a headache, it's well worth the $0.99 purchase.

Google has launched a new Android app allowing users of the Android Device Manager feature to remotely track, ring, lock down or wipe their other devices. Not to be confused with the Google Play Services feature that launched a few months ago, the ADM app duplicates the functionality of the web interface, meaning you can track or control one phone or tablet using another — provided you've first enabled this feature in the Google Settings app.
If you've not yet set up remote locate or remote wipe on your target handset, you can send a notification to it through the Android Device Manager app on the second device. (Fun fact: select the device you're using the app on and it marks its location as "in your hand.")
To get started, grab the new Android Device Manager app from Google Play at the link above.
