Cool thanks. What did you use to change your icons? Do you use SSH? That stuff is so confusing for me. What is that circle around your Phone and Facebook?

ienhz 08-19-2008 10:21 PM

Winterboard can change your icons/dock. I'm using a modified A8stract NTW theme.
Have some custom icons, font styling, wallpaper. The circles are just the things that tell you you have new e-mails/missed calls/voicemail except I changed the look of mine.

Can anyone confirm this? Do they have their data blocked and only using wifi and check their Data usage? Thanks :)

CH28, are you still experiencing this problem? seems like i have the exact same issue with mine now. says it's syncing then it jumps to backing up my phone. i let it run for several minutes and nothing. Anyone have any clue how to fix that? Any help is greatly appreciated.

Sorry I didn't see your post earlier

I'm still getting the same thing whenever I try to sync photos onto my phone. It's a pain in the ass and I don't know how to fix it. :mad:

RFlush 08-20-2008 01:33 AM

Where do you guys get your apps? I cant find the ones you guys have on Cydia or Installer unless I am not looking right. That Planet Mandarin looks good and Officebox or Now PLaying

RFlush 08-20-2008 01:36 AM

Oh for cheap accessories, you guys can buy from Dealetreme: http://www.dealextreme.com/search.dx/search.iphone

Free shipping and very cheap. You take your chances of the product not working though, I bought a usb-iphone cable and mine worked, but I would say 20% chance yours wont work haha. But free shipping and for $3 I took a gamble instead of paying $25 from Apple.

I went to the HK itunes store seems like they have almost the same selection as the UK one:rolleyes: and best of all when you sign up for an account and it ask you to select a payment method there is a choice call NONE!!!:D so i sign up as edison chen and give them my hk baller mansion address and there, i got all the british app i could even want :)

Haha nice. What are some good apps that are worthy to do this process?

Also, how do you guys organize your apps and springboard (i think thats the name, like the desktop haha). Do you guys have a special order or just doesnt matter what goes where?

I solved my picture syncing issue

I removed the "iPod Photo Cache" folder from "My Pictures" folder and everything synced fine.

I usually have the main apps on the first page. My reasoning behind that is that those apps almost always have icons when you use a new theme. The other programs might now have icons with that theme so I hide them on my 2-4th pages

What is that folder for? Is it safe to delete?
