fuck.. the stupid unlock for the 3G is such a headache.. need to upgrade it's baseband to a ipad baseband in order to unlock it, and then the JB is also a tethered one :S

who releases the newest JB/unlocks generally? i'm having trouble finding anything on youtube that isnt at least a month or more old, so i'm asuming nothing has changed in ulocking 4.2.1?

Don't get the iPhone 5 cus the iPhone 6 is coming out soon after. Better yet, dont get the iPhone at all cus a new one always comes out. Don't get a cell phone at all actually cus a new one will always come out. Stick to payphones and land lines.

Cydia Theme Center Puts iOS Themes At Your Fingertips [Jailbreak]

Adding a spot of color to an otherwise sparse iPhone home screen is one of the main reasons to jailbreak an iDevice these days, and until today finding the right theme has been a chore. That’s where Cydia’s new Theme Center comes in.

http://www.redmondpie.com/wp-content...1/photo-11.png

Theme Center is only now possible after a recent update made to Cydia by master of all things jailbreak, Jay Freeman. The update allows users to check the store for previously purchased apps and packages as well as implementing a new database. It’s this database that means users will be able to browse featured themes and download them in either standard or Retina Display-optimized versions.

http://www.redmondpie.com/wp-content...1/photo-21.png

As of writing this post, the selection of themes is limited to those chosen by the staff of ModMyi or MacCiti. The plan is to allow users to submit their own themes and vote on the best ones at a later date. Even with the limited selection available, over 15,000 people used the feature in just one hour.

Never heard of that happening before sounds like your battery is going to explode. Are you using a generic charger? if your battery is expanding take it back to apple, pretty sure they will replace the battery or give u a replacement phone free.

just bought an iphone4 afew weeks ago to replace my 3gs. i thought it was worth it. When the Iphone5 comes out sell the 4 and upgrade to 5. iPhone resale value is pretty good.

blkgsr 01-24-2011 07:07 AM

so what's the best case that you guys recommend?

cho 01-24-2011 07:51 AM

I'm using an sgp case, it's alright I guess


Stay far far away from the incase , it's a super tight fit and if you have a screen protector it peels it off

RESN 01-24-2011 08:32 AM

^ I got the incase from the free case program and that has never happened to me. I take it out of the case all the time too

which one? they have quite a few

so far the Neo Hybrid looks good, or the ultra thin and ultra silk?

i don't want a rubbery one if that matters

boss604 01-24-2011 09:37 AM

^ im using sgp ultra thin (white + mirror shield) its pretty comfy in hand

blkgsr 01-24-2011 09:49 AM

do you find it slippery? that seems to be the main con with these cases reading the reviews

boss604 01-24-2011 11:05 AM

at times yeah, how do you convert avi video files so i can add them to my phone ?

HonestTea 01-24-2011 11:11 AM

Where's the best place to buy cases? Apple Store? Craigslist?

I think VLC does it, but I'm not entirely sure

JordanLee 01-24-2011 04:32 PM

Yeah just use VLC. No conversion needed. Drag and drop. But ofcourse you need ti use the VLC app to play them.

So do you even bother resizing the file to a proper iphone resolution or do you just leave them as they are?

just leave them as they are. I prefer to use CineXplayer because you can go fullscreen in it

got my stuff from sw-box today! all my stuff was in mint condition, i ordered with EVOX and his had some glue residue on certain places of the back plate though

if any of you are looking for bumpers, i got mine from sw-box. looks pretty cool, i like it a lot more then the ones apple sells

http://img208.imageshack.us/img208/6083/img0095my.jpg

centre part where the buttons are is plastic, outer piece is rubber

also put on my back plate (i got a CF one, brushed metal one, and a blue brushed metal one - figured i'd get everything i wanted in one order since shipping is rape :P

http://sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-..._5265640_n.jpg

overall i'm impressed. can't say the same for evox though

I use iPodMe. It's old but it works. There's a million of these out there but iPodMe I find the most user friendly and fast. Set your size, quality and hit convert and wait.

Ikkaku 01-25-2011 12:14 AM

- kT can you show pics of the blue one? I'm still waiting to get mine and status update is still the same for the cheapest shipping :lol

i also ordered blue and CF

Sure thing, ill snap some pictures later when i get off work. The blue one isnt as nice in terms of quality compared to silver, there are some slight doscolourations but only under a certain light, not anything extreme

Also its a bit less dark then it is In pictures. Cf is just cf
