but reading from the reviews and stuff the battery life is preety good.
so is the iphone worth it? seems like theres alot of trouble to unlock and to do a bunch of other things to it | I can echo that the battery life is awesome. Is it worth it? Depends on what you need in a phone and whether you like carrying multiple devices are not. Is it a hassle to unlock it and all that? Yes, but it's a great learning experience too.

man, today i just installed the undate for customize *1.16* and it fackign screwed my whole layout.. the 1.16 did not have the "hidden" feature for the apps and I got all these useless apps on my dock that i can't "hide"....
I guess i have to manually install the new 1.17 firmware to see if that is fixed or go back to the old firmware.

Yes, but it's a great learning experience too. | unlocking is not a hassle :P it only becomes a hassle if you are upgrading and downgrading the fw ^^ oh btw i found out that they took out summerboard for the moment  and battery life is really great if you only use it as an ipod or just phone ~ but if you use wifi/phone/ipod it can drain fairly fast

For 1.1.1 iBrickr is supposed to have compatitbility issues...or so it says on his website. I used WinSCP with the MeCCa patch and it's pretty easy.
Just convert to AAC via iTunes, drag and drop into the Ringtones folder then rename to a " .m4a" or whatever it was that it needs to be renamed to. Remember to leave the space infront!!!

what router are you using? I find most d-link router to be a pain when connecting to other wireless devices.. I am using a bufflo wireless G router and it works flawlessly on my laptop and iphone.

D-Links are garbage. I use a Linksys one, which probably shares the same chipset as the Buffalo one if I recall correctly.
If WiFi's an issue, iBrickr will do too, just not as convenient or quick.

My questions are
What are good programs and apps out there for iphone?
Also what are some good summerboard themes?
And lastly how do I hide excess icons ?
*Edit

There's a picture with a red case and a black case
How's the quality for the case and where abouts can I get one? | Programs and apps: Install "Installer" and browse away.  Hard to recommend anything without knowing what you want to do with the phone.
Summerboard themes: Many on Installer, and you can see many of them at ModMyiFone.
Excess icons: Can hide them with the rBST function of the Customize app under firmware 1.0.2, no longer possible in 1.1.1 (as of today).
lol the red one is mine and the black one is a silicone case. Take a look at the earlier pages of this thread as I've answered the question before for my case (there's a black version I have too). I got them on eBay. As for the black silicone case, I have no idea. Quote: Originally posted by terkan

I've found it to be fine, but not as loud as many other phones I've used (Nokias, Palms mostly).

just a heads up.. DON'T update customize to 1.17. It Removes the hidden feature! Instead download a patch which is downloadable at modmyifone for the old 1.13 firmware

I got a question..
Lets say I have a iPhone 1.0.2 Unlocked. Is it possible to upgrade it to firmware 1.1.1 and unlock it again? or does the upgrade does not affect the unlock?
Thanks.

the patch for the old version is on the modmyifone site. takes like 1 min to update and i got my hidden feature back *who needs clock, weather, itunes store anyways!!!*
