Finally got on the 6GB data plan. Tethering is great. Have my 1000HE netbook connected all day and it charges the phone at the same time. |
Thanks TurboE i just turned everything off on my phone so I'll see how my battery is when i finish charging it and also i dl'd the BT Swap and it works .... i dont know why it didnt work before >.< !Mikroft - If my battery life still sucks ill take ur advice and reflash the firmware =) |
So a friend was wondering, is there anywhere you can get a 1st Gen iPhone screen replaced for a decent amount in Richmond? :eek: |

BTW, I found this really good app through appulo.us called Traffic Canada. Gives you access to all the traffic cameras around town! Not sure if it's widely known but I thought it would be useful to most people as we all know how bad traffic is getting around town! |
^^nice! i am actually downgrading to 3.0 again as 3.0.1 killed my AV output cables. EDIT: BOLLOCKS. downgrading the firmware didn't work. i got 2 useless cables now :( EDIT2: i musta did it wrong.tried again, and it works |
Well, the FW upgrade process went through with no problems but I forgot to write down the list of apps I installed thru Cydia....so as I was reinstalling Backgrounder, I hit the 'Restart Cydia' button before the little circle timer thingy had completed....arghhhhh!!! Had to do a full restore from scratch!!! So, by 1am this morning, I had my phone back up and running, but I know that I'm missing some apps as I added the xsellize repo but I can't remember what I got from there...LOL Anyways, 3.0.1 seems to be working fine for me...so far....cross fingers!!! |
After a couple months of owning my 3GS there is a pretty big piece of dust under the screen right beside the home button...blah I hate dust under the screen. Guess I gotta make an appointment to get it looked at. I don't even keep my phone in my pocket |
I havent upgraded to 3.0.1 its nothing big anyways. 3.0 works fine :) |

if you 3gs is under 1 month or watever it is for the full exchange period and u want a brand new phone i suggest you deal with fido/rogers instead of apple cause I'm pretty sure for any screen problems they are doing repair in store now. that is if there is nothing else wrong with your phone |
Rogers told me they would send me a new phone (prolly refurb) but looked new anyways, and to send mine back when it arrived. send it right away or you will be charged the price of a new phone. got a whole new phone and didn't have to wait around. |
trying out TomTom now seems to work ok. didn't even know it had a real gps chip in it. seems to work pretty good although very bare bones. $99 on the iphone store seems pretty steep for software only. all maps are stored on your phone so its a pretty big footprint. over 2 gb standalone systems cost less. |
I use Navigon cause the maps actually looks a little better. Aslo I was able to delete every maps except BC, Alberta, and Washingon State so that brought down the size of the ipa from 1.3gb to 170mb :thumbsup: |
^^^nice ya the Navigon looks way better. Tomtom starts up faster tho. both very similar in function. funny, i couldn't get a gps signal today. drove from Coquitlam to vancouver and the signal kicked in 1 block before my destination... im installing iGo now. |
For those who don't know. All these gps apps don't need a data connection. All maps are stored on the phone like a regular gps |
I finally have some free time to upgrade my SW from 2.2 to 3.0. What's the best way to keep my hackulous apps? My iTunes does have those apps stored. Is that good enough for backup or do I need to do more before I redsn0w and ultrasn0w the thing? |
One thing that was neat with Navigon was the gas station and fast food logos on the map haha. Igo. Slow load but fast gps aquisition. Igo also has 3d buildings for some cities. |
Does anyone know of a way to make it so when my phone rings it go right to the "Decline" and "Accept" buttons rather than "Slide to Answer" |
^^^ you know you can decline a call by pressing the power button once you can slient the call by pressing the volume button and of course answer by sliding |

My new purchase. Incipio Feather case. Waiting for it to arrive to replace my fading Air Jacket |
SO i take it you'd have to enter where you are manually then and it can't keep progress as u go thru your route? Quote:
|
^^^ no if you have use a standalone gps those program works exactly like that |
just got navigon cant wait to try it out tmr. might need this for my roadtrip to edmonton |
Tried Navigon yesterday.....looking for some park in the middle of nowhere in Abby. Navigon worked perfectly. |
