Jailbreaking iPhone...the saga continues...
Reasons for "jailbreaking" an iPhone, continued…
http://tinyurl.com/bfovsmo These are the "apps" I've added to my iPhone that weren't available from Apple: AllMail Allows me to check and then delete or store a long list of emails, whether I've read them or not, by a single tap on the selector. Any Attach Allows attachment of any sort of file to an email. ayecon A new, fancier set of on-screen icons. Infinifolders Increases the number of apps you can put in a folder. KillBackground Kills all background tasks at once. NCSettings Puts a bunch of toggles in the iPhone notification center. Nitrous Speeds up web access of non-Apple web browsers. PasswordPilot Saves passwords and inserts them where needed. PKGBackup Saves JB apps to the "cloud." ProTube A better way to enjoy youtube vids. Winterboard An umbrella for loading different visual effects and icons on the iPhone. iBlacklist Doesn't show here, but has its own icon. Allows easy blocking of telemarketing calls. AnnoyRightiesIntoSuicide Still under development, but when it arrives, "priceless." Most of these apps are available at no charge, but several required me to pay anywhere between 99 cents and a few dollars. As always, snotty comments from the snotties are always welcome and mostly not read. -- I'm a *Liberal* because I knew militant christian fundamentalist racist militaristic xenophobic corporate oligarchy wasn't going to work for me. |

Apple is a closed OS and if Steve Jobs didn't think you needed it, you couldn't have it ... hence the jailbreak. Yup, exactly the reason I am fully vested in Android technology, open source. I liked my rooted Android phone when I had it. In terms of usefulness, I don't see much difference between the Android phones and iPhones. I am not "drowning" in apps. I do wish the engineers and manufacturers of these phones would spend more time on improving the "phone" aspect and less time on the non-phone gimmickry. -- I'm a *Liberal* because I knew the militant christian fundamentalist racist militaristic xenophobic corporate oligarchy wasn't going to work for me. |

I am sure Harry understands that if an ap he buys "bricks" his phone, it is on him to fix it now. I remember those days, company I worked for had a Compaq computer and every card in it had to be from Compaq, including the modem. |

So one of the apps I got from Harry's list.. iBlacklst bricked my iphone. wouldn't boot up past the apple. I got into it with SSH, renamed the Application folder .. found out how on the web, no big deal. The phone booted up. So, I renamed the folder back to the original name, then got into Cydia, removed the app, then downloaded another one to fix the icons not displaying properly. I restored the phone from the last backup (itunes creates one when you sync... the only hassle I had was remembering the backup password, but I found it) All I had to do past that was put some of the icons back in some folders. Too about an hour. Oh, and **** you Harry. Heh.. |

Everything was licensed and verified that it would not conflict with anything else. You didn't have all those IRQ conflicts and drivers stealing each other's resources. I had all the PS/2 parts I wanted and ran them for years until I started wanting to do things IBM did not think a PS/2 user needed. I was not going to trade IBM's vision for Apple's vision of what I wanted so I went for the open hardware of WinTel and I deal with the conflicts I might encounter. I am sure Harry understands that if an ap he buys "bricks" his phone, it is on him to fix it now. Well, here's a little tidbit. So one of the apps I got from Harry's list.. iBlacklst bricked my iphone. wouldn't boot up past the apple. I got into it with SSH, renamed the Application folder .. found out how on the web, no big deal. The phone booted up. So, I renamed the folder back to the original name, then got into Cydia, removed the app, then downloaded another one to fix the icons not displaying properly. I restored the phone from the last backup (itunes creates one when you sync... the only hassle I had was remembering the backup password, but I found it) All I had to do past that was put some of the icons back in some folders. Too about an hour. Oh, and **** you Harry. Heh.. Aren't you going to tell Harry which app it was? Snerk My iPhone is a tool. I don't need to play with it and load any application on it I believe I need. When someone calls me I need the phone to ring and enable me to answer the call and talk to the other person. Next I need to be able to use the e-mail and calendar capability. You use your tool for massaging your prostate? |
