apply the solution then apply the shield onto the phone then quickly slide it into place. U don't have to put it on perfect, just put it on then align it quickly after that :thumbsup:

dmc_civic 06-25-2009 12:28 PM

How much solution do you put on? Whats the best way to get all the solution and air bubbles out? I tryed fuck it was frustrating ...sticking to my finger, getting finger marks on it, grrr lol

I soak it completely. Once you put it on, align it quickly then use the squeegy to get all the air bubbles out. Also spray abit of the solution on your fingers, that will help you ;)

ok just bought the "invisibleSHIELD" by ZAGG...appparently the best one, it needs 12-24 hrs to dry after install so i guess ill do it before bed or something

dmc_civic 06-25-2009 07:05 PM

is it just me or is when you click your message icon to go to your texts, does it seem slower ever since the 3.0 update? seems slower to load, and i dislike the landscape text, i thought it would be the nice, but its hard to get it to go back to normal on mine for some reason

Im having trouble with every source i try for iphone roms in both cydia and installer. Am i retarded or are they just exremely flakey sources. Does anyone know of reliable sources? Or am i doing somthing wrong, is there somthing u have to download to be able to add new sources? Mostly looking for genesis and gb/gba roms.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

1.GOLDEN RULE: If you are using a 3G iPhone with yellowsn0w and rely on yellowsn0w to obtain cellular service, then you should NOT use redsn0w right now. Ultrasn0w (the 3G carrier unlock) is not included with this release and therefore your baseband will be locked and unable to use an operator other than the official one it was bought for. UltraSn0w will be released via APT (cydia and icy) soon. If you have an original iPhone (1st generation) then 3.0 carrier unlock works with this redsn0w release.
2.Yellowsn0w in its current form will NOT work with the baseband version that is present in the 3.0 update, you will need Ultrasn0w, which will be released sometime soon, Ultrasn0w will work with all iPhone 3G models (but not 3GS), even ones that were previously unlockable, Ultrasn0w (when available) will be released via APT (this means you will be able to get it via Cydia or Icy).
3.Please read all parts of this post before downloading and using these tools.
4.Read items 1, 2 and 3 again and again.
5.At the bottom of this post are the bittorrent files for the latest version of redsn0w.
6.This app is suitable for the recent 3.0 release
7.redsn0w will NOT work for the iPhone 3GS.
8.redsn0w WILL work for Original iPhone (1st Generation), Original iPod touch, iPod touch 2G and the iPhone 3G (not the iPhone 3GS).

To use redsn0w simply upgrade the device in iTunes to firmware version 3.0 and run redsn0w to activate and jailbreak the device (and if you are using an original iPhone 2G, it will unlock it too!)
NOTE: I forgot to mention you need to use the latest iTunes or you cant upgrade to 3.0

Adsdeman 06-26-2009 10:15 AM

Sorry but i dont understand. What are these links and what is redsnow? Im running 2.2.1 and not planning on a upgrade to 3.0

stuff99 06-26-2009 10:34 AM

Do they erase all your files for you when they swap?

Psykopathik 06-26-2009 10:43 AM

oops my bad. look on iso hunt for torrents for ROMs. i read too quickly and though u wanted iphone roms not GBA.

didnt even know roms were available thru Cydia or Installous. learned something new everyday

Adsdeman 06-26-2009 11:01 AM

Thanks, im not too good with computers. Im not too good with the whole ssh side of things either but il try get my head round it tonight.

Any1 know sources for roms, cydia/installer?

Invisihield is over priced and doesn't protect against drops, bumps, and cement rash.

Plastic, clip-on, or slider cases suck, they either pop off when you drop your phone or are kind of slippery.

Screen protectors are ugly and aren't really needed. The iPhone screen is glass and is pretty tough, u would have to have it in your pocket with very sharp objects to make a scratch. Glass is tough, do u put protective film on your windshield?

IMHO the best case is the iSkin Solo without a screen protector, it's soft and flexible, absorbs impact, slim, not too bulky, has a good grip but not sticky, colours are cool although I wish they made a clear one, single colour scheme, no two tone crap, the blue and red are translucenet, the white and black are opague, overall the quality is good and durable.

There is also a new iSkin Solo FX that was just released, same as the original but with new colours and a crop circle like design on the rear. Check them out!

having both the iskin and slider, i wouldn't say that the slider sucks. the slider case does not make the phone bulky at all, it looks nice and absorbs impacts. the slider is by far the best case i have ever owned for any kind of phone.

I have to agree.

Have my 3g for almost a year. I'm a case whore, I have tried out many cases and here's my top 5

1. Incase sldier (i have the gun metal and I have to say the phone looks better witht he case on than without)
2. Griffin Clarifi (+2 for macro lens and sldier design, -1 for scratchin the back of the phone when the lens is in a fall)
3. SGP Ultra Thin (matte back with apple logo cutoff) looks like the iphone has no case at all, SGP's screen protector is AMAZING!)
4. Incase Folio (for the times when i want the phone to go naked)
5. Capsule Rebel (this use to be my no 1 goto cases, Looks great, many color to mix and match with, minus is hard to put on and the bottom can sag causing scrath to the bezel)
