I just order the iphone should come before friday.
the roger rep told me all I need is the latest itune to unbrick the phone.
so I been reading that if you activate/update via itune, you would not be able to unlock it when the unlocking is available.
If thats true how should I activate the phone?
what are my options?
I want to jailbreak it, should I be using winpwn or a different program?
what are some must have apps for the iphone?

Any advice will be welcome
fyi I'm a total noob at this iphone hacking stuff
Thanks

^ they will be able to unlock it eventually...
they just said that you won't be able to unlock it in the future because they are currently working on a 2.0 unlock... who knows when the 2.0.1 unlock will come out.

qhey 08-12-2008 10:55 AM

^So Should I just us itune to activate my phone?
what are some good website with iphone apps?

Problem with that is that it will hold open your data connection and an open connection means battery drain.

And you know how crappy the battery life is with any 3G phone.

Just food for thought.

Only when I need a map, to show someone up with facts, or if I need to know a address to somewhere. I wish I had it maybe 20% of the time.

yeah same, i find myself wishing i had it for stuff like maps and checking scores (hockey, olympics). i pretty much know i won't need 6gb of data but at the same time, there's no way i'm paying rogers $15/mth for TWO fucking MB of data. if they put out a $10 1gb data plan, i'd be all over it, but the prices right now are absolute crap for poor university students like me.

Levitron 08-12-2008 11:28 PM

Heading to Whistler for a few days.

Will I get charged for roaming data?

unfortunately i doubt they'll make such a plan, since after august its going back to $30/400MB. hell i'd be down for $15/150MB even, i'd use it consciencely when i need it. i dont know what they were thinking with $15/2MB. seriously wtf

only times I've ever needed data are when I'm lost downtown, or random bouts of revscene ... so like 10%.

"Roaming" is only when you're off your own provider's network and using someone else's.

Anybody else liking Cydia? I can't see Installer coming back as the go to app for downloads when Cydia already has so many apps available.

just got myself an iphone 3g baby. Love it so far except for the 1 dead picel i'm still comtemplating if it should return it...

anyways its on 2.0 right now. should i update it to 2.0.1 before attempting to jailbreak?

wix 08-13-2008 10:41 PM

Anyone know how if I should let the battery run out before charging it, or charge it for 24 hours right out of the box, or woahodsjf fsad, thanks

threezero 08-13-2008 11:44 PM

this is annoying... 3g is not working for me I got the data plan. I notice this after jailbreak but i didn't really test it before jailbreak. So i restore the phone and still couldn't connect to 3g....

threezero 08-13-2008 11:55 PM
