iPhone Hacking: Updating my 1.1.1 Unlocked iPhone to 1.1.2, then 1.1.3 (Activate, Jailbreak, Unlock, oh my!)

I tried this http://cre.ations.net/blog/post/the-113-soft-upgrade-jailbreak-faq but for whatever reason it thinks my phone isn’t 1.1.1 and jailbroken, so I had to find another way.
found this: http://modmyifone.com/wiki/index.php/OsX113devjailbreak
but I am 1.1.1, so need to update to 1.1.2, so I followed this tutorial http://modmyifone.com/wiki/index.php/Getting_Started_iPhone_Modding_OS_X_current_3

iPhone Commercial Incorrect?

Just recently going back to the dark side, and getting cable again, I have noticed some new iPhone commercials on TV. There is one where they talk about kind of going on vacation, and show you all the things you can do with the iPhone to aide in planning, etc. If you watch closely, you [...]

iPhone: Firmware 1.0.2 Unlocked->Revirginized->Upgraded to Firmware 1.1.1 - Unlocked!!

So this weekend I decided to try to get my 1.0.2 FW iPhone to 1.1.1 FW, and unlock it again. Well, Since I unlocked it with the iUnlock method (before it was a GUI app), I knew my baseband was hosed, so I needed to revirginize it.
I followed this method. Your mileage may vary, but [...]

iPhone: SummerBoard won’t install after updating to AppTapp version 3 (firmware 1.0.2)

Dang, so in my previous post I said the audio wouldn’t work. Mickey and I figured that it was a 3rd party app causing the issue, so I uninstalled everything but the installer and sources. I uninstalled SummerBoard, etc.
Well, after I solved the audio issue, I wanted to re-install. Thing is, my Installer.app (AppTapp) was [...]

iPhone: I can’t hear anything!

So today my iPhone started going wacky. Couldn’t hear anything when I called or got called and no sounds were coming out, iPod, keyboard clicks, etc. WTF? The headphones worked, the speakerphone worked, just regular calling didn’t work. It would ring when called, and then yes, it dawned on me..it must think the headphones are [...]

Temporary Vacancy at the "Roach Motel"? - Facebook + iPhone (useragent) = Your Contacts

I have read Dare O’s blog for a while now (years?), and recently it seems recently once every few weeks he mentions how Facebook keeps all your data so you can’t export it easily. Yes , it’s true. The email addresses are graphics, and they expire every so often, which sucks.
I was tooling around [...]

IzyMail - Get Windows Live Hotmail on your iPhone

Since Microsoft doesn’t want to enable IMAP for Windows Live Hotmail accounts (It just started enabling POP3 for Hotmail Plus users), getting your Windows Live Mail on your iPhone just doesn’t work. This really stinks if it is your main email address. GMail on the iPhone stinks because of the threaded conversations - every time [...]

iPhone Woes! Syncing Contacts

Whew, finally got my contacts onto my iPhone. How?
I use Windows Live Custom Domains, which then I use Windows Live Mail. As you would think, none of this is supported on the iPhone in any way shape or form. There is no “over the air” sync of contacts either. Blah.
So, I cleared out my Plaxo [...]

iPhone Free Unlock? Information is FREE!

Looks like the iPhone Dev Hackers Team has just released the source code for a free unlock so you can use the iPhone with any SIM…how sweet is that? It reminds me of the movie Antitrust - where they broadcast the source code over every device in the world!
