I seem to randomly have issues with apps just not working. I'll launch the app, see the loading screen, then it will dump me out to the desktop.
 
When did they fix it so that you can leave headphones plugged in (without a mic) and talk on the phone via the iphone's built-in mic? My 2G couldn't do that, at least the last time I checked when I was on 1.1.2.


I'm so glad they fixed that.

i.TV is a pretty badass application for checking out what is on on tv. Doesn't hurt that it is free too. :D

I tried it but if I'm watching TV why do I need my iPhone. This application will only be useful when I can remotely schedule a recording on my TiVo. Using the TiVo web-site to do so is painful on the iPhone. They really need an iPhone specific web-page or an app for this.
 
Did any one here download the NIN edition of tap tap? I tried the other version because it was free for some reason and it seemed kind of laggy, and didn't give any kind of feedback (at least satisfying feedback) that I was hitting the notes at the right time.

thoughts?
 
Why didn't anyone tell me about Shazzam before???

So freaking cool....picked up songs even from Rock Band with some tracks missing perfectly.
 
Get your fucking act together Apple. The Toronto Star app isn't available in Canada.

Fucktards.

Also, Parallel Kingdom isn't available in Canada... :/

You'd have to go back to the July and August posts in this thread to find those original apps we were all excited about.

that always worked for me on my 1.1.1 2g iphone from september last year until i bumped up to 1.1.4 this may (and subsequently a 3g this july) -- so yeah, no clue, but i would always walk around with my headphones on, holding the phone up so i could talk into it when being called (otherwise headphones for mp3 listening, and they had no mic)

Yes.

I've had 446 crashes (according to the crash logs) since launch day in MobileSafari.

*golf clap for Apple*

where is this crash log, and need i be jailbroken to access it? i've never bothered pwning my 2.0/2.1 firmware on my 3g, so i've been out of the loop for a couple months. either way, i'd like to look at my crash logs, because i'm sure it's something like 500 crashes of mobilesafari since i got my 3g. thing fails like you (would)n't believe. i can always, always, always, always get it to crash on a couple of websites using 2.0.2 or higher that it NEVER crashed all last year on my 2g or on 2.0/.1 once on (www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith fyi). my phone does not like having that website load completely - i always have to stop it from loading all the way or bam, instant crash. a couple other random sites, but nothing as consistent. anyways, help locating the crash log would be much appreciated.

So does anyone have a workaround for posting on GAF from their iPhone? The site looks and work freaking great - even the real site, not the web application - but whenever I go to post or reply, the text entry just slows to shit and eventually crashes the browser.
Click to expand...
Do not start typing until the page fully loads. Write very short replies. The slowness happens once you have to scroll horizontally. Then if you keep trying to go on as it tries to catch up, it crashes.

Also don't reply to posts right after a bunch of pictures because the reply screen shows the last however many posts which will crash your browser.

Hopefully the GAF redesign that m0dus is working on has a mobile version.
 
I've noticed two things that prevent MobileSafari from crashing much much less:

1) Not using the iPod section while browsing
2) Having more that 75MB of free space on the flash drive

Not sure exactly what the correlation is, but it made my browsing a fair bit more stable.

Still crashes very often with me.

I live with it now.

If you're on a Mac:

Users -> [USERNAME] -> Library -> Logs -> CrashReporter -> MobileDevice -> [NAME OF PHONE]'s iPhone
 
What's the best accessory to protect your screen from cracking when the phone is accidently dropped or whatever? Are there any 2G cases that actually cover the screen and still allow the touch interface to work?

Thanks!! appreciate the help mate!

But any other easier to use and that does not give errors when trying to convert a DVDrip.AVI file?

I get this message

Please make sure you have selected a valid, non-copy protected source, turn to the FAQ for help.


So I did and it tells me this:

• It means that one of the following are the case:

a) You have not selected a valid input source - Make sure you have selected the "VIDEO_TS" folder on the DVD you are trying t encode.

b) You are trying to rip a copy protected disc without using a disc ripper. - Use a ripper, There are plenty available.

c) Either the disc protection scheme is too tough for your ripper of choice, or the disc is malformed. - The only option is to switch to a different ripper.

Note: AnyDVD (Commercial) is the best solution on the Windows platform. Most problems can be resolved by using it! DVD43 (Free) is an alternative however does not support many newer encryptions.

A: I dont have a video_TS file... only a dvdrip.avi file, opens in VLC player

B: It is already a ripped DVD film so why does it have any protection left??


any other progam that I can just drop the file AVI, dvix vlc or whatever and it converts it automaticly without me having to any crack or shit
 
Is there an app for winterboard that makes the date/time transparent on lock screen, similar to the Transparent sliders??
 
Ok, so, jailbroke my iPhone 3G. It was totally awesome. Saw a picture of someone using an NES emulator on it to play Mario. Thought I'd try it out. Installed it, and now my iPhone shows the apple logo for two minutes, vibrates twice, apple logo two minutes, vibrates twice, apple logo, vibrate, apple logo, goes to the unlock screen for a FLASH, gets recognized by iTunes for a FLASH, and then repeats the whole thing over and over. So this is the price I've paid for Mario and I assume I've borked my phone. Is there any way to get the damn thing to stop booting and rebooting long enough to restore it, or am I just totally fucked? It's done this cycle like 5 times now BTW.

:(

I think the answer is DFU mode.

As great as jailbreaking is, you must be wary of what can potentially go wrong. Most problem can be fixed by a restore at worst, but backups are essential.
 
Is there a reliable, working software unlock for the 3G Iphone available yet? Just to clarify - I'm talking about enabling the phone to be used on any network (sim-free), not jailbroken.
 
So the headphones that came with my iPhone just broke. It's lasted just over a year. Is this above/below average? Anyway Apple had better come out with those in-ear headphones quick because I'm without headphones right now. :(

They should be under warranty if it was less than a year. Take it to a Apple store and get some new ones.
 
So I downloaded a few music videos on Itunes while they were free. Now my home PC screwed up and I have to sync with my laptop. Am I to understand that I won't be able to download those videos (which now cost money) to my Itunes library ever again without having to pay for them?

The next version of Handbrake adds the ability to encode video files other than VIDEO_TS and you can download an early development version here.
 
Does anyone know of a good native app for syncing a Google Reader account? The web app isn't that bad, but having everything loaded up front would be nice.

I found NetNewsWire which is pretty nifty, but that syncs with NewsGator instead of Google Reader, and NewsGator's web site pretty much sucks balls.

I use Bylines which is fantastic, but the folder support is a bit wonky.
