- I am getting used to the (my opinion) ip4 short coming as opposed to my DX. And am working around them.. That being said it really sounds horrid saying "work around" i know. But i truly do miss my widgets terribly, as well as my swype and notifications. And the screen size is a big thing.. I know i can get something like my notifications IF i JB! But i really don't want to.. But if it get's to the point where i can no longer take it, i still have my DX
But i still enjoy a great many things on the ip4 tho.. But i have discovered it will NEVER fully replace my DX. So i bought a Xoom
Cheers

You can have the phone jailbroken, apps installed, and un-jailbroke and restored (if you dont like it) in about 15-20 minutes (depending on the amount of apps and music you have on). I only have a few hundred songs so it doesnt take me that long to restore.
And what is the cost?03-05-2011 04:47 PMLike 0 -
- It's easy Heather S.
Download the tool, follow the exact instructions on screen (takes like 20 seconds from start to finish for your interactive part). Just make sure you have iTunes installed on the computer that you are jailbreaking from, but you do NOT want iTunes open. If it does open, just close it before starting the jailbreak.
5 minutes of automated installation after that, and poof, all the customization you could ever want.
It's not exactly free though, the jailbreak is, many of the apps are, but some of the best apps cost a couple bucks (well worth it), but they attach to your Cydia account so you can install them even after a restore and such.03-05-2011 10:00 PMLike 0 -
- My current device is the Droid X. I love the screen size and how you can customize the device, but I hate how laggy it is at times. Also the Android market is filled with alot of worthless apps. My last complaint is there are to many Android devices out, so the updates you get are minor and it takes forever to get on your device.03-06-2011 08:17 PMLike 0

- Yes, but most of the best applications are iOS only. That's where the difference lies - you can get a ton of good apps through the App Store; not so much with the Marketplace.03-07-2011 01:48 AMLike 0

the is a problem when you can type the name of an app, but in the search results, it's not always at the top. forgot which app i searched for and i guess since the rating on the one i was looking for was higher, it was ahead. that never happens in the App Store (iOS).03-07-2011 03:47 AMLike 0 -
- I may be a bit slow, but I can't for the life of me figure out how to do that. I synced my calendar over, but I can't figure out the contacts. I even downloaded Google Mobile and still can't get it. Any insight is greatly appreciated.03-07-2011 12:54 PMLike 0
- Every app i needed or found pertinent to my daily activities was in the android market. As they are in the app store. Sure there are more in the app store, but how many do you really need?03-07-2011 01:30 PMLike 0

apps. I don't think there should be questions about which has more useless ones.
Doesn't really matter. I just feel more comfortable trying out apps on iOS than I
did on Android. I'm not that much of an app degenerate. But I like to try stuff out
here and there sometimes.03-07-2011 02:24 PMLike 0 - That's the question for every platform. Every single platform has useless, garbage
apps. I don't think there should be questions about which has more useless ones.

And this means something to me as i buy my apps, i hate ad's and i like to support the devs. So it's just nice is all.03-07-2011 09:53 PMLike 0 - Me too, and on Android if after a awhile you decide you don't like it or its not what it claims, you get your money back. Used to be 24 hours, now it 15-30 mins, don't remember but it is a nice feature.

4 MORE DAYS!03-08-2011 12:34 PMLike 0 - The app purchase return window definitely was nice before they changed it. But like Lynx said previously, it made me stop purchasing apps that didn't have a free or trial version. The 15 minute window is not enough to actually figure out what an app can do. Hopefully Apple institutes something like this in the near future. At least a few hours, something that's manageable.03-08-2011 03:29 PMLike 0
