He saw a little birdy in his crystal ball. It signaled to him with semaphor flags that a guy it knows has a brother who spoke directly to Steve Jobs' chiropractor who says that iPhone 4.0 will be vastly improved.

Uh... yeah. So, how? I know I'm jumping the gun a little bit here as 3.1 isn't out yet, but forewarned is forearmed. As I understand it, in order to update a jailbroken iPhone you have to back up all your stuff, un-jailbreak by doing a restore in iTunes, re-jailbreak, then restore your...

I had the same problem when I jailbroke. Searching around the net suggested that it might have been caused by installing Icy at the same time as Cydia. The solution was to re-jailbreak without Icy checked. Not to restore first, just to re-run the jailbreak. Worked for me. In fact, it...

This thread is remaining remarkably civil so far. I'm impressed. I'd just like to add my "Rest In Peace" wishes, but express my doubts that a media blitz and public airing of every mole the guy ever had is unlikely to contribute to his ability to rest in the afterlife.

Even if they noticed my post, I'm afraid I may have done myself in by choosing this username. They couldn't very well credit Gary Gnu - it's as likely that they'd have given the scoop to Kermit D. Frog, Muppet News Flash Reporter. :D

Gaah!! Nothing works! I keep getting this freaking internal error thing. How the hell do I... Oh, yeah. "Google it, n00b!" Cool.

Not nearly as much as the idea of using YouTube as an intermediary for any videos I want to get off my phone does. You've got to admit, this workaround leaves a little bit to be desired in the privacy and data-security fields. Thanks for the suggestion, though. :)

AIM Free is working fine for me now. It's gone from being nearly useless to pretty freaking nifty in a single update, and I've promoted it from nearly the last page to page 2.

Yeah, I've certainly been keeping an eye on it too.

I think I'm going to have to jailbreak for just these reasons. Particularly the video.

My friend's cousin's uncle's brother's former roommate says that you can now send up to 5 pictures at a time from your iPhone using email. No charge. Works for me.

Useful push apps -particularly chat apps that are now useful as text message replacements for the first time since the iPhone was released- are being promoted to the first or second screen so they're handy. You know, some people have been complaining that the "Voice Memos" app created its own...

I was successfully able to locate my iPhone within a two block radius. Of course, I verified this by looking up from my place on the couch and checking to make sure it was in its dock... Wouldn't take much to defeat it, though. Even if you can't find the setting to turn it off in the Settings...

Of course, it would seem that one of those questions, the bit about "how to UnJailbreak" would seem to be "Just use iTunes to restore the damn thing to factory settings, then use a backup to restore your data - the Jailbreak apps won't sync but the rest will!" Also appropriate would probably be...
