The iphone pwnage tool has been out for sometime now while many users report that it does just that, pwnz an iphone. Now that the new 2.0 apple software has been officially released the iphone dev team report that they have indeed unlocked and jailbroken this new firmware. This has yet to be confirmed, however when they say they have done something its normally true. The Dev team has been unlocking and installing older builds of the 2.0 firmware for sometime now.
1. On July 11th 2008 Apple releases a new 3G iPhone with unexpected healing abilities. The new more powerful 3G frequency completely eradicates cancer. Steve Jobs later receives Nobel peace prize.
2. After three friends purchase their new iPhones they decided it would be cool to play a giant scaled version of pong using the GPS map feature, with one friend being the ball whom later collapses and dies from exhaustion.
3. iPhone SMASH!!!
4. When the app store officially launched it was later realized that the iPhone was a sentient life form. Apple of course already knowing this, thus would explain why it referred to the phone as “iPhone” and not “The iPhone”.
5. The man who does all those iPhone demonstrations loses his voice. Yet he manages to still do the next set of iPhone demonstrations using only hand gestures. No one notices the difference.
6. Sony realizes that the iPhone is extremely popular and profitable. Sony then releases iPhone. Law suits ensue.
7. The new calculator on the iPhone can multiply by zero. Which in turn finds the meaning to life.
8. In the future the word iPhone replaces all nouns here is an example of a conversation.
Greg: “I totally banged iphones iphone last night and when iphone was done at your iphone we went to my iphone and kept going.
Steve: “Your the iPhone!”
9. The mysteries of the ancient hieroglyphs in Egyptian temples were found to be iphone design schematics.
10. iPhone went back in time just to tell Moses all ten commandments was written by the iphone in less then 2 minutes.
Take a look at this video of what looks like crash nitro kart for the iPhone. The graphics are way better then the DS and comparable to the PSP. Seems like apple unintentionally is now in the gaming market. Imagine a brain age port for the iPhone. You could practically port Nintendo DS games and remake them for the iPhone and it would most likely be better. I always thought two screens was a gimmick but touch games I hold in high regard. If apple can keep this up maybe then can officially jump into the gaming business.
On the eve of official first party applications for the iphone approaching I thought it would be nice to take a look back a retrospective if you will at all the third party jailbroken applications. Why would I do this, well hopefully developers wont forget what the scene actually wants on their phones. The iphone scene is an intelligent community and hopefully devs will learn from us and develop things we will actually want to use. So on that note lets round up some of the more useful third party jailbroken iphone applications. These would be apps that prove to be the most functional. (more…)
Hmmm there appears to be an iPhone shortage going on in the apple stores as of late. Apple states that online orders will take about seven days to fulfill. Analysts believe that this is because apple is preparing for the inevitable 3G iPhone. I say bring it on just don’t bring it on with any new types of rate plan that would make it more expensive. I mean its a fortune as it is, yeah AT&T its too much money and a small about of minutes. Another possible reason for the shortage could be apple doesn’t want to make it easy for people who unlock them and sell them on eBay for an exorbitant price. Maybe new security measures could be put in place just in time for the new 2.0 firmware.
Well everyone knew that apple would eventually be coming out with new iphones and ipod touch with higher capacity storage. Read here. But they have’nt apparently been listening to all of the clamoring from geeks and nerds alike for a 3G iphone. Maybe its just not possible to cram that much technology into this thing with out some consequences such as terrible battery life. Now I do personally know what terrible battery life is like on an iphone. On my unlocked iphone with BSD Subsystem installed I can honestly say that I would have to charge it mid day. That is with basic usage, some phone calls here, some internet use there. With that said I am not too sure this is that much of an upgrade. So apple take your time and work on a more potent battery which can handle 3g and then come out with a new model.
When I first unlocked my phone I have never used an iPhone before so I was hesitant on what I should do or how I should go about doing it. Here is a video representation of some information I have gathered over the internet in addition to some simple steps. ***Windows Only***(more…)
