Haven't used it yet, but I'm probably going to wipe my phone and do a Pwnage tool update to the 1.1.4 baseband and try it then.

Has anyone had any problems with their phones all of the sudden turn off and taking like 10mins to reload again? Like it gets stuck on the apple logo screen for at least 10mins.

not sure about that but i had a problem similar to that (when i was running a hacked 1.0.2) were the iphone would shut down by itself when I played certain songs on the phone. I'd need to reset the phone for it to work again.
So far with an updated 1.1.4 i haven't encountered that or any of the random lagging screen i experience with the older version

my phone doesnt all of the sudden turn off, but it sometimes just stays blank and the screen won't pop up when i press the home button or lock button. so then i have to reboot it. it did it a lot for a week and now it magically stopped.

anyways, tried the new customize last night! i'm happy to have my transparent dock back! yay

Alright, so my Uncle took the iPhone from me and unlocked it somewhere else and he didn't tell me.

It's 1.1.3 and i already got a problem...

iTunes ain't detecting it >_>

Also anyway to change that wallpaper?

Also since I'm not sure what my Uncle use to unlock it I'm considering wiping it and then restoring it with iPlus. How do I wipe the phone?

Sorry if I come off as a complete noob, but in reality I really am...

None of the prices include a plan, as you're supposed to activate it at home in iTunes....which clearly none of us have to do.

You answered your own question. WiFi != your KB downloaded, as it's using WiFi, not your cell radio.

Yea I figured that, but I still sort of freaked about the idea of my bill..

*Cough*

anyway, anyone wanna help me troubleshoot this little bastard? Can't... sync... anything!!! Laptop keeps detecting it as a god damn camera, not an iPhone. So it doesn't appear up in iTunes.

^ yeah, just walk into an apple store and ask them if they have any in stock. That's what me and my dad did, and there was absolutely no hassle and no hesitation from the sales. In fact, the sales lady was pretty nice, and somewhat talked to us about the phone functions and the accessories for the phone.

there are some apps such as bosspref and stuff that allows you to turn it off via software, but not 100% sure it works.
