warranty is stil valid, all you need to do is to flash it back to the original firmware then make the claim. dont go and make the claim with your IPhone Jail broken. Make sure to restore it back to the original firmware then make the claim.

yup.. U r rite..!! Provided u can restore back using iTunes to ori firmware or not u might need to fix from out of maxis This mean u have to pay for it.... Jailbreak iPhone cannot claim warranty

bare in mind if screen blackout or internal hardware got problem cannot restore is at ur own risk

If anything wrong occurs during flashing etc etc, there's always the life saver option of putting the phone into DFU mode and reflashing it. It's almost brick free in that sense.

Ok,thx you guys....Me understood...
I will try jailbreak the phone later....
But still need to ask few thing b4 i shut my mouth and start reading...

1.How can i put the mp3 become my ringtone?
2.Can the iphone on9 with using my pc internet(becoz i din buy the wireless moderm yet)?

i jailbreaked my sisters ipod touch 2nd gen other day, and mid way through flashing, screen blank, buttons dont work, cant be turned on. i thought i bricked it. really worried until i remembered DFU!! saved the Ipod Touch. Redsnow is an excellent application, it will teach you the step by step process in real time. 4-5 mins, JB Iphone!! Fun begins!

I'm using a china software to make ringtone and sync it

if without wifi then u have to use ur own data to suft

1. Sorry for this cause i am still not a iphone user. Just recieve more knowladge at here.
2.You have to connect via Wifi or wireless to surf net, there have no port to let u plug! lol! so better go get a wireless

Can somebody help me im first time iphone user.

I have oS 3.0 running on my iphone3g. my iphone is jailbroken. and I have installed OpenSSH from Cydia, and also have enabled it using BossPref. Now, i want to ssh file using Itunnel 2.7.
AFter installing itunnel 2.7, i click on the "itunnel" to make it running. then I click file browser, and entered 127.0.0.1 host, root user, and alpine password. Then "Login", but an error pops up " Software Caused Connection Abort". Anyone know how to fix it? or is there any better alternatives to SSH files into ur iphone ?

i went settings there and off 3g ad, y it will auto connect 3g ?

All these time I didnt use anything online without WIFI and some of the time I noted down, the iPhone was just sitting idle - so who or what is using all these data???

how come have negative ?how u do that? this is not the first case maxis mess with the data info...you are not the first 1 to complaint this. But analyze from the statement, the data usage not heavy, maybe u have push mail ??

no email account has been setup on my iPhone yet. Not sure about the negative amounts. It does that by itself. At this moment I just off my iPhone. If not sure bleed dry. I just emailed Hotlink and ask them to revert all these charges since I should have gotten my free 500MB data since the moment I walked out of their centre. How long they take to activate it is their own problem.

How can my iPhone use data when it is sitting idle? I just note that I put my iPhone down at 11:00am and you see at 11:02am, it uses rm2 worth of data!

if all you need is transfer files i will recommend iphone browser or diskaid. Diskaid is available as a try for a limited period.
However if you need to run command, apart from running ssh you can install the terminal on cydia and run it directly on your iphone.
I used itunnel a couple of times in the past but hardly ever need it these days.

@idoblu,
It is possible to utilise RM2 of data - that's just 20/40kb depending on which plan u are on. If U ter-press Safari or open apps like Weather/YouTube/Stocks, U will automatically be connected to the GPRS services.

Go to Settings --> Usage and check what's ur current usage. If U haven't jailbroken ur phone the information on that is pretty accurate.

@tinkerbel,

I am using Hotlink - no plans except SMS plan
I didnt ter-press. First I am on WIFI now and I wasnt even using the iPhone. Its sitting there on the table.

MY usage says -
Sent - 140KB
Received - 575kb

ok check my e-Statement again and the RM2.00 is now missing and replaced with -
02-08-09 11:21:46 GPRS 00:00:00 Data RM1.00
02-08-09 11:02:17 GPRS 00:00:00 Data RM1.37
02-08-09 10:15:43 GPRS 00:00:00 Data RM0.59

Note: My phone is not JB

I suggest if ur phone not jailbroken better take the unlimited data, if jailbreak ady then download sbseting from cydia and off the 3g or edge... It work for my.. I gone through all those data charges...

@idoblu,
U must haf had used it for something cause ur total usage here is 715kb and assuming you're on 1sen/kb then U'll be charged RM7.15 for this.

If U totally want to stop data from streaming in, disable APN. Go to http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1061070

Section D: Troubleshooting

@idoblu

All iPhones comes with EDGE "ON". With iPhone 3.0, certain apps works in the background. I would advise you to disable your EDGE as soon as possible. Read this link to disable your EDGE: http://forum.lowyat.net/index.php?showtopi...post&p=26695269
