it wasn't a problem with the iphone. it was a problem with the network (rogers/fido 3g) - a coworker who was using a blackberry lost service too, so that's how i knew

im using a bumper so i guarantee it wasn't the antennae

and its not my fault, i hit quote and it turned to that - if you want to fix it you have to add another [/quote] :(

blkgsr 02-03-2011 10:34 AM

with my old regular flip phone, i would get names of people/companies etc on my call display

now with my iphone 4 i just get phone nunbers...is there a setting or something that needs to be turned on or is this an issue i need to bring up with rogers?

xpl0sive 02-03-2011 11:26 AM

i havent had name display on any iphones, and was told by rogers that iphone doesnt support that feature. Then i got a different text/vm pack and all of a sudden, my name display started working... you should talk to rogers and make sure that your package includes name display

YAY..... my items arrived from sw-box. First off, I'm going to say, the shipping was actually quite fast. Although I chose UPS for shipping, they used DHL without notifying me. At first I was inputing the tracking number into UPS and it never worked, so I figured I'd try the other shipping companies they listed and behold. DHL worked.

Keep in mind I ordered on January 27th at night. Which would be their 28th in their timezone.

Quality wise, 8/10 for the hard cases, 9/10 for sillicones, 7/10 for the wallet case and 9/10 for the back cover. I also ordered a car charger and iphone opening tools. The tools I've used and they work fine. Car charger haven't tried, but lets keep our fingers crossed it won't fuck up within a few hours.

I highly advise that you guys do a group buy next time, cause shipping was total rape. The more people you get, the better deal for everyone since the products are relatively inexpensive. I may order again, in the near future :fullofwin:

Psykopathik 02-03-2011 02:56 PM

buy from dealextreme. no shipping charges ever.

jing 02-03-2011 04:49 PM

I bought my car charger for like $3 too and it looks 100x better than that huge ass white one

GreenPois0n RC5 Untethered Jailbreak for iOS 4.2.1 is released.

http://www.redmondpie.com/jailbreak-...-how-to-guide/

Hondaracer 02-03-2011 05:38 PM

hopefully an unlock is around the corner now as well..

insomniac 02-03-2011 06:27 PM

dx has very unreliable shipping time estimates and bad service imo..
ordered shit on new years and it hasnt been shipped yet

and sometimes if the item you want is out of stock they wait till it is avaliable so they ship all your items at once..

sw box no complains so far.. pretty good quality but too bad there are shipping fees eh
just used the angel case today.. i thought there was a design flaw till i looked twice haha
the silver part was meant to be the angel's teeth

is the jailbreak stable btw?

The_Situation 02-03-2011 07:02 PM

Official greenpoison jailbreak. It should be stable. I'm already jailbroken on fw 4.1. How will I do this?
Update and restore to 4.2.1 then restore from backup?

DanHibiki 02-03-2011 07:09 PM

I'm waiting on the windows version to be released.

Hey all.... I am kind of an iphone4 noob.

Question:

- I heard a lot of stuff about, untethered, tethered jailbreaks and how it messes up if you turn off your phone or it shuts off....So, my question is, what does untethereed/tethered mean? My brother has a 3GS and he gets the free stuff etc etc. can someone explain this further?

Thanks.

Iceman_2K 02-03-2011 08:52 PM

to those that are getting the initialized line sitting there for greenpois0n, delete any iBBS.n**ap file, and try again.

i dont know how many times i explained this to you via msn lol

tethered is a jailbreak where you cant shut off your iphone.
with tethered jailbreak, if you run out of battery or your phone turns off, you have to boot up your phone via the computer program, redsn0w. otherwise your iphone is as useful as a brick even when it has full battery because it will be stuck at the apple booting logo. tethered is exactly the same as untethered jailbreak with that turn off problem.

untethered jailbreak is normal jailbreak. no problems at all. download free games free themes and anything you want.

new untethered is out nao.

Ikkaku 02-03-2011 09:14 PM

annnnnnnd my retarded cheap shipment of my parts from swbox is STILL at customs ... it's been there since the 27th. There had better be some legitimate reason for it, like they tried to ship some opium with it.

Hondaracer 02-03-2011 09:20 PM

my shit from SW box too like a month and a half..

you guys who do unlocks, do they generally release an unlock for every new JB or what?

are we expecting one for 4.2.1?

they dont' have a schedule. they do whatever the fuck they want basically.

like there isn't a unlock on 4.1 for i4 and most 3gs and 3g yet :whistle:


just jb my uncle's ipad on 4.2.1
everything work fine except the green loader app the greenpoison use to install cydia a piece of crap.

sooooo i install cydia via redsn0w. after you ran the greenpoison, open redsn0w and select ONLY the "install cydia" option. you will keep your untether jailbreak and avoid having to deal with the loader app to install cydia

Ikkaku 02-03-2011 09:45 PM

hondaracer - was it just that they didn't ship it, or was it stuck at customs under review like what my tracking status shows?
