Updating Apps Directly on the iPhone and also downloading apps from the iPhone into iTunes

1.) I'm unable to update apps directly on my iPhone. It gives me an error message when I try to do it. It'll start downloading the new version, but once its done the error message pops up. BUT, if I delete the program, and then download the new version it'll work (but that is highly annoying).


2.) I have 30+ new apps on my iPhone. When I sync the phone to iTunes, it doesn't sync the new apps I have ...


Anyone know whats up??

Cons to not jailbreaking:
-no video recording
-no background apps
-no way to tether (netshare no longer on app store)
-no MMS
-you iphone will look like the 10000000000000000000000000000000000000 other iphones around you

cons of jailbreaking:
-need to spend time to do actual jb and setup the phone the way you want
-possible annoyance when upgrading firmware requiring rejb and reinstall of jb apps


just look at both cons see which one you can live with and decide for yourself.
I only listed missing phone functions than jailbreak will enable. These functions should be on every smartphone yet Apple didn't implement it. JB will also unable other functions not mention here but these are what i think addresses most complains with the iphone.


As for problems after jailbreaking? you can go techy and try to fix it thru SSH
or
you can do what owners of unjailbroken phones do when they encounter an unfixable problem:

-Restore.


I have no encounter software problems on the 3g either jb or non jb than cannot be fix with a proper restore.

I hope this stops all the jb or not jb questions


^^^ for you i will quote myself just once.

so whats the deal with Data roaming?

im asuming the 3G network is not available throughout canada within your data plan?

I was up at my cabin near Kamloops and turned everything off, what are the charges like for using the 3G network in a place like that?

Is Bosspref in the app store?
I just tried searching for it, but no dice.

Install Bosspref and turn off both edge and 3g, i don't remember if you can turn off gprs too but if you can turn it off and just leave wifi on.

Keep in mind some ad supported apps (especially jailbreak ones) might not work if you block off all the data and no wifi is in range.

No gurantees all your data will be block with the method so the best way is to get fido to block it
