Nah you gotta do it on your own, free the iPhone from Apple jail and it's all yours.

Just want to clarify something... Jailbreaking vs. Unlocking

"Jailbreaking" the iPhone means you can install third-party applications.

One of the third-party applications you can install is called "anySIM" which "unlocks" the iPhone for use with any GSM carrier.

"Unlocking" the iPhone means you can use it with other phone networks (other than AT&T in the U.S.) . . . For example, if I wanted to, I could "unlock" my iPhone, take out the AT&T SIM card and replace it with a T-Mobile SIM.

"Jailbroken" iPhones were never "bricked" ... It was "unlocked" phones that were bricked... but even those are back in business.

You can always restore a "jailbroken" iPhone using iTunes.

Regarding the screenshots:  I use an application called "Dock".  It adds a little sunburst on the lower right corner of the screen that allows you to launch any of the applications installed on your phone and also has the screenshot ability.  You can faintly see the little "sunburst" in the screenshots above.

I assume you have "Installer.app" installed on your jailbroken iPhone.  If so, make sure you install "Community Resources" which should give you access to a lot more third party apps.

^ Regarding "Community Resources"...

The "Installer.app" application is a repository for third party apps... and so is "Community Resources"... Whomever is running "Installer.app" controls what you can install through it and I doubt they would allow a virus to be installed through it.  I think it is safe.  However, nothing is 100% safe so there is always that risk.  Install at your own risk.

Since the next version of the iPhone has not been officially announced, all we know about it are rumors...

Some of those rumors are...

Built in GPS
3G (instead of Edge)

One thing that HAS been officially announced is an official iPhone SDK to be released in February.  This means that the "jailbreaking" (read: hacking) of the iPhone that is currently required to install 3rd party apps will no longer be necessary as the 3rd party app developers will be able to officially create applications for the iPhone.

The current software version for iPhone is 1.1.2.  There is a rumored update (1.1.3) supposedly around the corner...

Gets you around the 300MB partition for applications/operating system(150-200 MB alone).

So now I can have up to 6GB of applications if I wanted too :D
You will never get this warning ever again "You're running out of disk space! Please delete etc....."

Thanks for clearing up the partitioning thing.  I have gotten that message... "You're running out of disk space! Please delete etc.....".  But that was back when I was installing everything... now I just install the stuff I use on the daily.

With the SDK, 3rd party developers will be able to make apps just like they are doing now, but not have to jailbreak the iphone first.  There will be much more freeware / shareware / donationware out there than now... and that's a good thing.

I don't see how they can block DropCopy since wifi is a standard which uses your IP address to communicate over your wifi network.  I can see Apple selling games (just like they currently do for the iPod) through iTunes, but I don't know about apps.  We'll see.

All in all though... iPhone is awesome.

Told ya, they're faggots x 10.



http://gizmodo.com/338948/
We had some doubts, but now we can tell you we are sure: the new firmware 1.1.3 is real. Or as Nate puts it: "if it is a hoax, they did a buttload of work." The fact is that it installs normally and it works perfectly. For those not familiar, Natetrue is one of the most respected and veteran iPhone hackers and the author of the popular app iBrickr.

Nate goes on to say that "it installs on the phone no-questions-asked and for that you need to have Apple's private key, which i can confirm that the iphone hacker community does not have—as much as we would love to have it." Indeed, Apple's private encrypted key, used to authenticate all accesses to the iPhone most-private guts, hasn't been uncovered yet by anyone in the world.

In other words, no firmware upgrades can be installed without the knowledge of this key. Furthermore, the idea that someone would have access to this key and spend months to create a fully functional firmware update, with key new features and without any documentation whatsoever seems just absolutely silly.

Effects on unlocks and Third-party applications
The update breaks AnySim's unlocks. Logically, you can't unlock this update using AnySim and there's no alternative to iTunes for activation. If you want to activate, it will only work using iTunes and a standard AT&T account. Nate says, "that is the only way we have been able to activate so far." Nate tried to upgrade an AnySim 1.2u iPhone and it failed. Even while he was able to force it to boot, the phone refused to activate even with a normal AT&T SIM card. "I suspect it's due to the fact that the baseband could not be upgraded to the 1.1.3 'required' version", he says.

Other updates remain untested, like iPhone Sim Free or any of the hardware-based ones, like TurboSIM. In theory, these should work just fine, but jailbreak and activation would be absolutely impossible for the time being. We would have to wait until the update gets released in the open to try new alternative activation methods.

Your favorite third-party apps will be gone too, with no possibility of return for now. The update fixes the bugs which allowed "the jailbreak method we were using for 1.1.2, locking us out again, as expected."

Other effects
Like previous firmware upgrades, whatever is in the user partition remains unchanged. Only the Apple-owned part is affected by 1.1.3. So for those of you who claim that this is a fake because it says "Nate" in the network instead of "AT&T," that's the reason. He changed the network name in 1.1.2 using a program by Erica Sadun, of TUAW, called Make It Mine.

New features and future releases
The list of new features are confirmed too: all are correct, but he couldn't confirm if they are the only ones or not.

Many of you would be wondering how this could have happened, knowing the extremely tight security around the iPhone firmware updates. We don't know, but apparently the leak has occurred because "someone wanted to help the unlock effort." The source of the leak is completely anonymous, even to the people who have had access to the upgrade.

Why the update hasn't hit Torrent yet? The code could be watermarked to catch any leaks "so for now it's screenshots and videos." Also, distributing it won't make much sense at this point: according to Nate the iPhone 1.1.3 Firmware update could hit as soon as next week.

No doubt that any updates that Apple releases between now and when they release the SDK will break any 3rd party apps and unlocks.  But after the SDK, I don't see how 3rd party apps can be "broken" as they will be built off the SDK Apple releases.  "Unlocked" phones can be another story... but I think it will be easier for hackers to "unlock" it once the SDK is released.  There will always be some delay between a new Apple update (1.1.3, 1.1.4, etc.) and when the hackers are able to "unlock" it.

Which app do you find using all the time?

^  Before the SDK is released in February you will have to "jailbreak" the phone to install third party apps.  After the SDK is released there should be a standard way of installing applications on the phone without having to "jailbreak" it (hack it).

I suppose the iPhone software will get updated when the SDK is released.  I think that by installing that update, any current 3rd party apps you may have installed on the phone will become inoperable... however, I see the current developers of the apps simply re-building those apps using the SDK and releasing them that way.

Hopefully that made sense.

Short story:  I believe it will be a lot easier to install apps once the SDK is released.

Yes, there will be a standard way on installing applications but at what price :(
 
The SDK will not tell people how to hack the iPhone.  Apple will hire private software companies to do all the third party applications for them.  Apple wants total control and to charge you for every little thing like the Nintendo Wii charging you for games you already bought :grumpy: charging for a web browser, wtf makes me sick.


Applications I use all the time...

iPowerHour
Nes
Navizon
Books

What got deleted? and for what reason?

No reason was given for deleting about 10 posts with Diplomatic Immunity and I going back and forth regarding the iPhone... the entire 2nd page of this thread had a bunch of screenshots we had posted and we were discussing iPhone software.

Mods... what's the deal?

UPDATE:  The posts have been resurrected... thank you.

It's true that the SDK will not tell people how to hack the iPhone, but it will allow 3rd party developers to build apps for the phone.  I think it will become just like another OS that people make apps for.  Just like Adobe makes Photoshop for Windows and OS X, with the SDK, Adobe will be able to build apps for the iPhone.  The freeware and shareware community should be able to make tons of apps (just like they are doing now through the "jailbreak") that I think will be easily installed without having to "jailbreak" first.

NOTE:  Thank you to whomever brought the deleted posts back.  Peace  8)

Read above, there will be an Apple private key. No more Root & Dottie/Alpine.

They want to charge for everything, there's not gonna be a jailbreak for a long time.
Hopefully some1 leaks it somehow.

The key they are talking about is the firmware key... not the 3rd party software key.  You need to have the firmware key in order to create and install new firmware updates to the phone (i.e. 1.1.3, 1.1.4, 1.1.5, etc.).  They are basically saying that the photos and video of the 1.1.3 update they are showing are legit (not a hoax) because only Apple knows the firmware key.

Many of you would be wondering how this could have happened, knowing the extremely tight security around the iPhone firmware updates. We don't know, but apparently the leak has occurred because "someone wanted to help the unlock effort." The source of the leak is completely anonymous, even to the people who have had access to the upgrade.

^ Whomever leaked it at Apple is trying to help out the hackers by giving them more time (a "heads up") to work on "jailbreaking" and "unlocking" it.

I see.

I was jumping to conclusions :cow: reading too much crap, I thought they were gonna key the root files.
