he means a cross platform messaging app, such as whatsapp that allows people to chat even though they dont use the same phone. some might say why not just use text/msn but apps like this works better for international chatting that is not as memory intensive/draining on the phone as msn apps. the fact that everyone is based on numbers + autoadded based on your phone book helps too

Well judging from his post... he mentions getting a bbm and a bbm pin... no app does that to my knowledge and i was really interested cuz i feel so left out w/o bbm :(

Someone pointed out that it's more likely that they had to jailbreak his phone for TVout onto the big screen, as seen by the icon next to cydia.

You mean something that wraps around and protects your phone will actually make it physically bigger?!

Absolutely unheard of!

Armind 08-19-2010 01:39 PM

:lol

I should be getting mine by Tuesday or so.

JordanLee 08-19-2010 06:15 PM

For anyone who doesn't want to use their stealth guard I'll pick it up from you for a buck or so. I just need the rear as I'll be using an SGP on the front. Thanks

I had a skin on my 3G and it didn't make the phone feel bigger at all

terkan 08-19-2010 07:57 PM

it depends on the type of skin.. if it's just a sticker sure it won't do shit.. but if it's a silicon case.. it'll make it bigger even if it's just 2mm thick x that by both side.. that's almost half a cm thicker

chouchou 08-19-2010 08:01 PM

so many pages and so little time..
hahah what screen protector are you guys using? and how much?
looking to grab something before i pick up the iphone..

Mikli 08-19-2010 10:57 PM

Do you guy know how to set sim lock on the micro-sim? What's the trick and the diff between a regular sim? I'm down to one try.

DanHibiki 08-19-2010 11:26 PM

This would be the custom zagg skin I would use for the iphone 4.

which looks better, horizontal or vertical?

If you want it, I will just do it for $5.

That will cover my USD shipping cost + credit card commission (well, that's adds up to more like $4, but whatever)

Splmash 08-20-2010 08:53 AM

ohh vertical.

so, my contract is ending in a month with fido and i think it's time for me to jump on the iphone bandwagon.

i was wondering where i can get the cheapest data plan? which provider? and realistically how much data do i need? i generally use 250+300 minutes air time a month. and i do youtube and facebook/web browse constantly

Anyone know if the Apple unlocked phones come with a microsim or not?

ecsw 08-20-2010 09:21 AM

^ I believe it does. But they make the microsim in different transaction so it it's not linked to the phone.


Anyone knows other program does wifi tethering other than MyWi? It's $20 from Cydia....

Called Fido: You have to enter "3436" for the SIM PIN in order to lock or change to your SIM PIN. Hope this will help if you want to add a micro SIM password.

cracked from xsellize or similar for 0$

on that note tho, my phone has been crashing on and off ever since i got it. most of it is from incompatable cydia apps and its kinda ticking me off not knowing exactly what crashes what. i absolutely HATE the new "backgrounding"

edit: oh and make sure you download mywi(no rock), cause as everyone knows, rock sucks

hmmm.... where can I find mywi with no rock? I thought it's necessary and got my account setup already. :(

have to look into xsellize... thanks.

I dont mind paying for it, but $20 is more expensive than a lot of programs on app store....

what's up with iPhone4 no tethering with ipad? :bullshit:

yeh, that might happen. not everything is compatable with ios4 yet, so might just have to wait a bit. this is a big reason why a lot of people havent jumped into ios4/iphone 4... my brother has his phone just sitting while he's still using his 3gs. a lot of things may crash it, just try to remember what was the last thing you installed and uninstal that and that ususally fixes most problems.
