Do Not Update to Firmware 2.2.1

The Dev-Team has announced that the new firmware 2.2.1 closes the “Injection hole” used by yellowsn0w to unlock 3G iPhones. While the “injection hole” still exists in the 1st gen iPhones you still should not upgrade until the Dev-Team updates the Pwns. You have been warned. It usually takes 24 to 48 hours for the Dev-Team to update the Pwns. So just sit back and relax, they are working on it.NO update ICON

If you are on an official carrier the unlock is of no importance to you. In a day or two (hopefully) QuickPwn will be updated to use the new 2.2.1 firmware.You will be able to update then, and rejailbreak.

If you need the unlock hold off on any updates until otherwise given the go ahead. Updating will result in your iPhone being locked and unusable on your nonofficial carrier. In the past Pwnagetool has been able to update while preserving the baseband of your iPhone. I can not state this will be the case for the new Firmware. The closing of the “injection hole” sounds more like Apple didn’t update the baseband, but just secured the vulnerability in the 2.2 firmware.

You might ask why would Apple only block the unlock and not jailbreaking also. Well Apple has contracts with carriers all over the world to be the only carriers that offer service for the 3G.  Apple doesn’t want to stop jailbreaking because it voids your warranty. Basically the same as if you bought a brand new 3G and went out in the parking lot and smashed it on the ground. Apple isn’t going to replace it. If you break your iPhone you have to buy another, and that makes Apple more money. If you unlock your phone Apple loses money, because if they don’t stop you they get sued by the carriers. It’s your iPhone you can do what ever you want with it. Apple just has to cover their butts and try to keep them locked to official carriers.

I hope this not only convinced you to wait on your firmware upgrade, but also explained to you why you should always hold off until the Dev-Team has had time to update the Pwns to work with the new firmwares. New features are fine and dandy as long as they don’t take away all the other nifty features you have added.

Jaadu VNC for iPhone

This is a guest post by iRoc, and today he is going to fill you in on one of his most favorite apps :  Jaadu! icon

What exactly is Jaadu and why would I need it, You might ask. Well, let’s say you are at work and you need a file, but that file is on your computer at home. You could call home and try to talk someone through navigating to the file and sending it to you. Oh, but that almost always is a head ache at best. Wouldn’t be great if you could just get in touch with the Enterprise , and teleport back home and get the file? No Jaadu is not about to save you thousands on travel expenses or make your daily commute magically disappear. Though Jaadu was formerly known as Teleport, and it’s the next best thing to a real deal teleporter.

Jaddu will allow you to remotely access any of your computers anytime you want or need right from your iPhone. You will have 100% control over your distant computer, or the one that’s just out of arms reach if you want to roll that way. 100%? That’s right 100%!

Your desktop even shows on the iPhone screen. So you can navigate to the necessary file and send it to yourself via email, instant messenger, any way that you could send that file if you were sitting right there at your computer normally, and everyone is happy and you are the big hero of the day in your boss’s eye.

Here’s how I used it last. I was at the store and I saw a DVD for a movie I had been meaning to download and watch, but always seemed to forget when I was at my computer. So I reached in my pocket got out my iPhone called Scotty and said, “Scotty one for transport.” N o not really. I opened Jaddu selected my laptop at home. Opened Firefox, went to mininova.org and searched for the movie. Once I found it I started the download. I could even check back in periodically to see how the download was coming along. Anything you can do sitting at your computer with your keyboard and mouse you can do on the screen of your iPhone with Jaadu.

HowTo Email a Photo From Your iPhone

I got a couple of emails lately from my friends here at FSMdotCOM asking me how to attach a photo in emails that they send with their iPhones. This is pretty simple so bare with me for a couple of seconds.

First you need to open PHOTOS and browse for the picture that you want to send via email. Once you found it, you need to tap the button in bottom left side of the screen.

img_00051

Once you tap that button, a window will pop up and you will have different options. One of the options is to email the photo. All you need to do is tap it.

img_0006-1

That’s it… your pretty much done. The photo will be inserted in the email body and you can begin typing the text.

mySMS CONTEST FINALE

First of all , I wanna thank all of you for your wonderful job. This was not a contest to see who is harder, better, faster or stronger ( I love Daft Punk 😛 ). I choose to present you this contest for the following reasons :

  • Well, I had to come up with a concept that would resemble a competition ( that’s why this was a “contest” )
  • Really , the answers didn’t matter. Before the contest I was thinking about it long and hard. How can I make this as easy as possible? So I thought this was the best idea. I wanted you to have fun and make it personal…. Now I may have confused you with ” make it personal ” . Well I wanted to give you the power, and customize this app, with words. And that is exactly what you did. “I want this and that, and this?!?!? U kidding that would be so cool…” Feel me? 😀

This was my best idea for the contest. And it’s a win-win situation. Pavel provided me this codes so he wins because now, he knows exactly what his users wants from this app. And you/we win because some of the features will be implemented in future releases. Now this was the history of the contest.

I said above that your comment didn’t need to be some super geeky comment . But I also said that this was ment to improve this app, for us. the users.

And some of you asked for some stuff that was already there. There already is convo style, you can find themes for mySMS on cydia (ugly ass themes, but hey if you want themes you can find them ) and all sorts of stuff. Don’t worry about it tho,  demands like that won’t disadvantage  you in any way.


My only disappointment was that I couldn’t provide the tutorial video that I promised you. Don’t worry as soon as I get it from Pavel , that badboy will be on my blog and you will learn how to take full advantage of this app.


That being said, I had fun with this contest, and I promise you this was just a start. With time I will provide you bigger and better contests.

P.S. : Pavel will announce the winners , by commenting on THIS post.


Power to the people.


much love,

murda the funky space monkey.

LATER EDIT :

Since it’s Christmas time, and Pavel absolutely ROCKSSSSSS , he gave me another 3 key codes and said i should choose 3 winners . So i would have to deal with this hard work ( of choosing winners ) as well. Hard but…. i will post the winners in a couple of hours.


much love ,

murda the funky space monkey

LATER LATER EDIT :


THE WINNERS ARE :

  • Mick.
  • Tim.
  • Magnum.
  • Tony Tony Tone.
  • Sean77.
  • Texter.

The rest of you : Thank you so much for all your interest in this contest. Dont be sad! This is just the beginning. 😉


much love,
