Once you have jailbroken, start cydia and install winterboard, there are plenty of themes available through cydia. If you want to make your own themes you can use Diskaid to access your phones files.NJ x Falkor said:
Here is a good place to learn about where all of the files go when you create a theme.

OK, so once this thing install Cydia, how do I go about installing the NES emulator?

Judging by the shit posted in this thread all the time, cool themes don't exist.NJ x Falkor said:

you can still use a 3G iphone after jailbreaking it right?
unlocking it means you just can't switch it to any other company right?...
like you can still make phone calls on it, right?

I would love to be able to get an unlocked iPhone off the online store.
But, it doesn't come cheap.

What's the best Hard case for the 3G? At risk of screen break screw-age, I want a good case when I get one next month.

Not dropping your phone.Buttonbasher said:
Seriously, hard cases are the phone version of the plastic cups with screw-on lids and straws for kids. Just get a screen film and don't act like a clumsy oaf.

Cans of Soda share a similar design in concept with sippy cups, and people choose to drink soda out of cans over soda out of cups in many cases. I just would rather be safer, than stupid looking. Maybe a shoebox would do the trick. Graft on a handle, and I'm corporate casual!Liu Kang Baking A Pie said:
Soft cases then?

Well, I kinda like having a case for mine, but it's not really to protect it from drops. I have small palms and slender fingers, so having a bit of extra width on the phone just makes it easier for me to physically handle.
But yeah, the only way to really protect a phone from getting broken is to NOT DROP IT. If a case makes it more likely for you to not lose your grip on it, then I can see the benefit and utility of it, but otherwise you're being very silly and over-protective.

Dozens? Wow.
You're lucky then.

I just tried the QuickPwn21-1 app and it seemed to work ok, but now my phone is frozen on the pineapple logo (bootup logo)
I've left it for 20 minutes, then held the power and home button till it powered off and now turned it on again - its frozen on that pineapple again
Did this happen to anyone else? I'm looking around for a FAQ or forum online
Sorry for the (most probably) dumb question..

No, not that dumb, you're sweating it a bit and looking for an answer that will keep you from making it worse.pubba said:
Put the phone in DFU mode and try it again... if you still have problems, use WinPwn to put the firmware to 2.0.2, then use QuickPwn to update to 2.1, if that's possible.
I am also extremely careful but I'm carrying the phone almost all the time and accidents happen. I'm using the original iPhone and the aluminum casing is especially slippery in my hands. There was one time I dropped it on concrete when I swore it was broken for good because part of the casing popped up, but I snapped it back in place and I never had any problems. I've even submerged it in water (don't ask) and it still works. Mind you that I'm not advocating any kind of carelessness with your phone as I've probably been luckier than most :lol

I'm sure this has been asked a million times, and I am too lazy to go through the thread, is there a store or website selling the protective screen film for a decent price? I just purchased mine last night and the store was selling them for $20, which is ridiculous.

$2.50 for two, free shipping. They also have matte.

I just thought of a perfect app. It would be nice if you could schedule the time of day when your phone goes into silent mode and automatically takes it out of silent mode at a time you specify. It's always a hassle taking my phone in and out of silent mode when I am at work or at home.

What makes Mxtube different from YouTube??
All these guides are telling me to get BSD Subsystems but I can't find it anywhere? Do I need it?
I also can't get my ROMs to work. I created both folders on the iPhone and SSH-ed the .nes files into the NES folder but they are not coming up when I run the emulator on my iPhone. Any suggestions?
I believe MXTube allows you to save the youtube videos onto your phone.NJ x Falkor said:
If you're into broadcasting live to the internet from your camera, download Qik, I tried it last night and it was kinda cool, about a 10 second delay from what you're seeing to what's being shown online.
Here's my suggestions for Winterboard add-ons you might want.
"Transparent Dock" (use unless the theme you use has a dock pic you like)
"Transparent Sliders" (removes the the background on the slider when your phone is locked, looks much cleaner, especially if you have a nice wallpaper that is obscured by the background.
However, I use "Un-Unlockable", that completey removes the background from the slider, and also the slider itself. You slide to unlock as normal, you just can't see the slider.
I'd take a pic if I could of my lock screen, but it really is the best not to have anything obscured by the slider.
I also use the cute "Zelda Battery" charging meter. It has the little Link hearts that fill up as your battery is charging, with original NES look to them.

I'll put it this way. I have dropped my 3G from about 5 feet onto a hard concrete floor with no ill results of any kind. A hard case for the 3G seems to be a waste unless you are going to drop it from great heights or drop it out the window or a moving car or something.

For a hard case, I purchased a PixelSkin case last night: https://www.speckproducts.com/products/pixelskin/iphone-3g/143. I hope it will bounce off the ground when I drop it out of a hundred story window.Buttonbasher said:
