You guys need to check out the Viber app. Its basically free calling over your network ...

but heres why its better than skype and other apps ....


PUSH CALLING

thats right, install the app, don't even have to have it on, and when somesone calling you it pushes to you.

say bye to your normal plan!

Tim Budong 12-13-2010 04:59 PM

what?!
how does that app work?

jing 12-13-2010 05:11 PM

It's only free to other Viber users.

im selling an iphone4

G 12-13-2010 06:53 PM

So, I am getting my iphone4 tomorrow and I am a total noob. Someone help me out. I need to jailbreak it to get most apps right? If it is running on the latest OS, I heard there is a site called "jailbreakmenow.com" or something?

Also, what are some must have apps you guys have? And, do most of you have a case for your iphone4, if so, which one's do you think are better?

Thanks in advance.

insomniac 12-13-2010 07:48 PM

^must get apps are
angry bird, fruit ninja, mr.space... ect theres a thread ilvtofu made about iphone apps lolol
EDIT: link: http://www.revscene.net/forums/favou...s-t626802.html

i prefer silicone cases.. non-slip grip but tough (not soft) silicone case.. soft silicone cases rip easily.. but cheap to replace.. like 2$ each lol
dont recommend getting hard bumper's (fucks up your screen protector and viynl (if you have one)), cheap crystal cases.. seen plenty with cracks at school

JailbreakMe only works if you have 4.0.1.. dont know what version you will have when you get your iphone tho

not yet but android and bb is on its way

not much people know about the app yet but i'm sure it'll pick up. they must have some angel investors behind their company because the app is free, and ad free as well. the app basically looks like the stock iphone phone app, crazy!

Check out the iphone tutorial section at http://www.iclarified.com/. It has tons of info on Jailbreaking and Unlocking your phone. You don't necessarily need to Jailbreak, but if you want custom themes and home-brew apps, then you'll want to do it. Careful if you Jailbreak on OS 4.2.1, as last I've heard it will be a tethered Jailbreak, meaning you need to re-jailbreak every time your phone is turned off or the battery dies...

Just do your research and don't do anything you're not comfortable doing! Check out http://modmyi.com/ as well, lot's of info there to learn about Jailbreaking and a good, knowledgeable community if you have any questions!

As for good apps:
Angry Birds, Doodle Jump, Flight Control, Find iPhone, eBay... man there are sooooooo many. That's part of the fun of owning an iPhone, finding all the new and cool apps :D

Anyways, have fun with your new phone and if you have any questions, just ask!

FFFFFFUUUUUU all my apps got deleted
I have a jailbroken iPhone 3g on 4.2.1. I downloaded installous and appsync. Installed apps from installous and when I connected it to my laptop to put new songs on it all the apps I downloaded got removed.
Anyone know how I could fix this?

The_Situation 12-14-2010 11:26 PM

In itunes go to file and click transfer all purchases from ipod

Thanks I will try that when I get all my apps back.
Does this also allow me to update my apps I installed from installous from the app store? So I don't have to update 1 by 1 in installous.

The_Situation 12-14-2010 11:45 PM

I still dont know how to do that sorry

Tim Budong 12-15-2010 03:48 AM

It won't get your apps back.

Just do it for future app downloads that you do straight to your phone

And if that doesnt work then check your firewall and make sure apple is allowed in your network (or iTunes I forgot)
I highly DONT recommend upgrading to 4.2 though.. You cant reboot your phone or power off. If you do so you have to re jailbreak or restore or else your phone will be stuck at the bootup screen.
My 0.2 cents :lol someone correct me if I'm wrong

i turned off my anti virus program and everything finally worked

Okay I installed 1 app from installous to test this and it happened again. I connected my iPhone to my laptop and itunes asked if I wanted to transfer purchases. I clicked yes and it still removed the app.
I googled this and tried many things. I tried right clicking on my iPhone name and clicking transfer purchases and it starts to transfer but then it just stops. It doesn't transfer my free apps I downloaded from the app store either.
My iTunes is authorized

Lol edit. Reading fail.

Well then... For those that have the brushed metal back how's the quality after a bit of use? Any noticeable interference with reception?
