Had the following experience with the iPhone 4, just two weeks after I got it: I was talking on the phone for about 40 minutes and the phone became very hot, too hot to touch. I put the phone on the charger for the night and woke up in the morning and noticed the phone was still warm, though...

Nobody? Anyone else see this behavior?

I have a 3G running JB on version 3.1 (7C144). I had been using PdaNet 1.33 to tether my MacBook via a peer-to-peer Wifi connection. However, I noticed that I don't need to launch PdaNet for this to work: I simply create a peer-to-peer network on my Mac, join it on the iPhone, make sure the...

PDANet 1.33 works fine for tethering with the 3.1 JB.

Weathericon had a bug which caused a crash into safe mode for 3.1 JBs. There is now an update that works with 3.1.

Works well for me too, but somehow it screwed up my carrier bundle so I'm not getting the carrier in the status bar. Anyone else see this? Know how to fix?

I've noticed that sometimes the error circles are bigger than others and that rebooting helps get back to normal. I suspect this is a memory usage issue that affects how well the phone can compute position given the GPS signals.

I had a problem like this after I upgraded to 3.0. I had hundreds of shots on my Camera Roll, but the thumbnails were corrupted. I ended up uploading all the shots to my PC and then blowing away the Camera Roll directory (/var/mobile/Media/DCIM) from a shell opened from SSH (I'm on a...

You have to download all of your apps from Cydia by hand. There is an app that saves/restores JB apps, called AptBackup, but I was not able to get it to work successfully when I jailbroke after upgrading to 3.0.

Then you have a problem with your jailbreak.

Notifier works perfectly with 3.0. There was a 3.0 update posted a few days ago on Cydia. I've been using it and it works well. The app opens just fine.

To that list I'd add LiveClock, Cycorder, and Snapture

In Cydia goto Manage>Sources hit edit then add and enter apt.saurik.com/cydia-3.7/ You will be prompted to upgrade essential.
