Tell us how it is haha I think I'm gonna order one too.. You usually get what you pay for when you buy stuff from china but it's just how long the product will actually last..

How are you people using that much battery life?

I use it constantly and I never run out in a day.

It totally depends on how the phone is being used, what apps are left open, etc... I have to charge my iPhone4 every 2 or 3 days the way I use it. After a day of heavy usage, I have to charge it every night though.

hey guys, iphone noob here with a noob question

is there a way to turn off the iphone when it is stuck on the apple logo or connect to itunes screen?

Reason I'm asking is because I have to use the tethered jailbreak for the iphone 4, so everytime i restore on itunes I have to re-jailbreak. I want to just turn off my phone so I can run the tethered boot

Thanks!

Edawg, when you're in the apple screen try running redsnow and hit just boot tethered now. Then do the DFU mode instructions. This restores the jailbreak and boots the phone with out having to restore all the apps. This works for my iPod Touch 4G ios 4.2 should be same as yours.

You have to enable it by going into iTunes. Go to the "Info" tab and check "Sync Address Book Contacts" back up your old phone and then connect your new one.

Reboot the phone and it should be already installed.

DO NOT BUY THE SWITCHEASY NUDE CASE.

i guess i cant expect much from a 1mm thick case.
was gonna give it away for free but now i guess i cant = =
if you want to take off your case, this will happen.
