well i just did some battery testing on my 3GS 32 GB
this morning at 8:00 AM i began playing music videos.
medium brightness, 3G/EDGE off, headphone output max volume, Phone on.
its now 3:10 PM and i have 13% battery left.
6 hrs and a bit so far. not too shabby.
when the phone is drained, i'll plug in the external 1900 mAh battery and see how long that goes for.

Anyone else finding that new apps work poorly on the old 3G? I don't have a 3GS to compare with, but I find many apps, such as Navigon, Facebook, and Tweetie frequently crash on the 3G, returning me to the springboard. Navigon in particular is virtually impossible to use due to how slow it responds to touchscreen inputs.

make sure theres nothing runing in the background. IE winterboard and other cosmetic mods, animated lockscreens.

Have a question guys. I tried jailbreaking my friend's 3G iPhone on 3.0 firmware. The jailbreak went fine, installed apps and everything, but the network was not activated. He can't make or receive calls. I tried redsn0w and PwnageTool. From what I've read online, iTunes no longer activates the phone unless it's 3.1? Can someone help me out?
Another question: About 15 mins ago, my 2G iPhone froze and its stuck on the startup Apple logo. If this is the case about iTunes not activating iPhones, am I screwed until someone JB's and unlocks 3.1? My baseband hasn't been updated to the latest one yet so I think I can still unlock it. I know I have to restore it in order to use it again. What should I do?
TIA.
edit: Just fixed my 2G iPhone with PwnageTool. Everything is working again.

When I did the redsn0w method, it would get stuck at the running Pineapple and it says 'installing activation bundles' with the spinning wheel. It would never get pass this screen. I've googled this problem and haven't found a solution.

I tried redsn0w on a Macbook and a PC and both work fine until I get to the 'installing activation bundles' screen. I've tried it on 2 different 3G iPhones and same result for both.

To decline I just hit the power button once, but I don't think this is the right way. I wonder what would happen if you hit the home button instead

FML
i just restarted my 3GS and its stuck the Apple logo "loop".
iTunes no longer allows firmwares lower than 3.1 to be restored. So upgrade and lose everything.
Updating to 3.1 kills your Jailbreak and Unlock, and curently there is no solution.
WTF can i do?
