THE **iPhone** Thread (GPS, JailBreak, Apps, Etc)

As dumb as it sounds, papi jump is a good meeting time waster.

Wow I just found out how buggy this software is on this phone still. I am thinking about going back to 2.0.1 or just 2.0 and dealing with the slow contacts.

I have been using only EDGE for the past few days. Awesome battery life. Gone 2 full days with moderate calls and basic use and still didnt get down to the red level of the battery. I just tried to turn on 3G to use the internet becuase I had to go to a specific site that is blocked from work and I cant get anywhere. I can still make calls which is good and am in 5 bars of 3G but nothing. Tried rebooting, locking and unlocking, different URLs, and even putting it into airplane mode and back on and still nothing.

Dear god Apple. Fix your software.

^ If you have 3g turned off you are going to get much better battery life. No firmware updates are going to change that because 3g just uses way more power.

Me too, I almost threw mine at the wall.

I was just going to say I think something is down because I just noticed mine isn’t working on 3g or Edge now either and it’s been working great on 2.0.3 up until today.

Good to know it’s an AT&T issue.

whats with the slow sms, im always ahead of whats typing.

that normal?

Ya its not the battery life I am complaining. Its the fact I have seen problems with the way the phone goes from No Service to Service or EDGE to 3G.

Good thing I waited before I chucked it.

While its down I am working on my lock screen to display new messages in Gmail. There is no functionality to click them but its a way of knowing that you have email.

YES! This game rules.

3g is working again but it’s slow as hell.

Edge seems to be working fine at it’s normal slow as hell speed.

my 3g was slow this weekend, pissing me off.

Gustav knocked something out in the southeast, apparently the entire east coast was without 3g or internet in general on AT&T until just now.

Safari has been crashing lately. It seems like whenever I use it for more than 5 minutes on 3g, it just shuts off. WTF.

Hopefully this new firmware will fix most of the little shit. When is 2.1 with GPS coming?

I found bigger sites. Like if I try to view a page with lots of images or javascript it just dies.

There is an update coming this month sometime. I have yet to hear if its gonna be 2.1 or a 2.0.4 release but the details should come up soon esp since Apple has their event coming the 9th.

Some recent game announcements:
Spore Origins For iPhone Launch Date: September 7.

Also EA has announced the following titles coming for the iPhone in the next months.
New Games: YAHTZEE Adventures, EA Mini Golf, Lemonade Tycoon™, Mahjong, MONOPOLY: Here & Now The World Edition, SimCity, Tiger Woods PGA TOUR 09, Need for Speed™ Undercover, and The Sims™ 3.

Not gonna lie, I am pretty psyched about MONOPOLY, Tiger Woods, and SimCity

nice :tup:

simcity should be pretty good. I really hope they do warcraft or some other RTS game

edit: anyone else find it ironic that, in the few months of the appstore, there are already more games for the phone than for the computer :stuck_out_tongue:

Me and my friend are working on 2 small apps for the iPhone. One is a free alternative to intelliscreen that uses feeds on your lock screen to show your email and other message status. The other is a fuel consumtion monitor that helps you accelerate better and alerts you when you are wasting gas (kind of similar to the devices that you see online).

since we are not paying apple for their SDk, we are releasing them on Cydia.

Awesome new app out for you jailbreak fellows.

dTunes on Cydia. Install that with the Safari DL plugin and you are able to download music from the SeeQPod.com’s streaming audio service :slight_smile:

do you guys know of a file manager for the iphone?

MobileFinder used to be great until to was ported for 2.0 and no longer has file system access. Looking to use it to play back mp3’s saved on the phone with the safari d/l plugin

What about the Safari Patch that allows you to type in file:// addresses. That should allow you to get to your downloads folder and play music.
