I've tried using both Apollo and JiveTalk and I can sign in and everything.. but the messaging doesn't seem to work. People can message me, but I can't seem to reply back to them..

Is the battery in the iPhone replaceable? How long does it usually last if you use music/videos on the iPhone a lot. How long does it last if you talk a lot on it?

Thanks!

Battery is not replaceable, battery lasts a long time, 24 hours-ish on music and a few hours on video. It'll last you a day if you talk a lot.

These are all ballpark estimates, mind you.

Technically the battery is replaceable but it involves a lot of work and opening up the phone which will void the warranty. Unless your battery is defective, there is no reason to replace the battery.

I also think it depends which firmware you're running.

When I was running 1.0.2 my battery life was pretty crappy when I had WiFi or Ipod playing. I'm on 1.1.2 now and I notice that even with WiFi on my battery life has improved by A LOT. I'd lose like 1/4 bar of my battery after an hour or 2 of WiFi but on 1.1.2 I barely even use up 1/4 of the battery after 3-4 hours on Wifi

goto installer and download a program called iSIM. you can transfer your contacts individually but if you want to mass transfer then you'll have to purchase the program...

similar question: do they restore to latest firmware or lock your unlocked iphone if you need battery replacement?

The Apple Stores won't touch your unlocked, "unofficial" iPhones. You'll have to rely on the user community for help. Since we never activated the phones properly, I really, really doubt they'll even consider helping us.
