Have you tried doing this

QUOTE
For the sms.db, what you can try is copy out the sms.db from /private/var/mobile/library/sms. Once you backup the file to your hard disk, delete the sms.db in your phone. Try sending a test sms to someone or to yourself. If you can get the reply, then replace back the old sms.db to the /private/var/mobile/library/sms. That should retain the permission and all.
Try rebooting the phone after you delete the sms.db

There are few ways to troubleshoot if the problem is cause by MobileSubstrate or Apps extension thats using MobileSubstrate. Since you have SBSettings, you can turn off one by one the app extension to determine which one thats causing the safe mode. The phone will only go to safe mode when MobileSubstrate detects there's an error occur from any of the app extension that try to do the hooking/operation. Thats why its call a Safe Mode, to prevent something bad happening from a bad app. If the phone still goes to safe mode after turning the extension off one by one, then try turning off everything. There might be a clash of app extension.

FYI ... tethering does not work on iPhone 2G, even using the ipcc. The situation is the same with MMS (not until some guy finds a way to hacktivate it).

Hello... just finished reading all the pinned thread about iphone...
I'm using iPhone 2G with FW 1.1.4, I wish to upgrade to FW 3.0 by today...
A few questions:
-How come my iPhone model show : MB384LL (according to forumer, 2G iphone suppose to be MAxxx right? MBxxx should be 3G iphone)
-I have no wifi at home, so i can't access to wifi to download apps that i want after i upgrade my firmware, any other solutions?
-Can i get SMBPrefs, BossPrefs from Cydia?
-Do i have other method to backup my iphone beside using aptbackup?

Thanks for replying  blush.gif

Search the thread on how to do manual backup. I don't recommend using aptbackup as you are moving from 1.1.4 (ancient firmware) to 3.0 (latest firmware). It might screw up the phone later.

For the BOLDED questions
1. If you don't have wifi at home but have wired internet connection, buy a wifi dongle if you can't afford a wifi router. Use it as ad-hoc to share your pc internet connection.

2. SMBPrefs and BossPrefs are already been replace with Summerboard and SBSettings hence the recommendation on not using aptbackup as it will transfer old junk to your new firmware.

Can teach me how to do it....im not really know how to transfer using those softwares....THX SO MUCH... rclxub.gif  thumbup.gif

Movies transfered to your itunes are not considered as rented movies. It should be in the Movies category. Do you see you movie in that category?

[attachmentid=1083877]

About your application, try sync 1 apps first and see. Did you get the apps from itunes or from AppStore?

Those apps that scan for wifi does not work in fw 3.0, from appstore or cydia. Maybe it's not compatible yet (i've tested wifi finder from appstore and Stumbler plus on cydia)

Nothing is wrong with your bluetooth. You are not properly informed, the bluetooth on the iPhone is for pairing with bluetooth handsfree or headphones ONLY. It's not to connect with other phones or devices for file transfer and such.

by right it should (at least for me)

non 3G S -> hold the home button until it re-springs

3G S -> hold the top right power button until "slide to power off" comes around and then only hold the home button until it re-springs.

however nothing beats a complete reboot!

If the phone is not jailbroken then it will not be running in the background. This applies to all apps from the appstore except for some stock apps i.e. safari, phone, mail etc. If you jailbreak your phone, you can make any application run in the background using backgrounder.

@nokia2003
The "hold power button until 'slide to power off' and hold until it resprings" are firmware specific i.e. fw3.0 and above and not phone specific.

Do you have any other sms application i.e. biteSMS or iRealSMS that you installed thru Cydia? What about Mcleaner or iBlacklist?

Any idea if it's possible to have a different format for mobile phone numbers instead of +60-1-23456789?
Something like +(60)12 3456789 or +6012-3456789 would be easier to read.
*
If your phone jailbroken then there's an app in Cydia to rectify that. If I'm not mistaken, it's called CallerID and Format Fix for 3.0 under Localization section. It will format the numbers to +60-12-3456789 or 0123456789. If you need it to match your preferences, then you need to edit the Default.phoneformat in /System/Library/PrivateFramework/AppSupport.framework. BTW the file is in binary, so you need to use a hex editor. Good luck.

Somehow my 'Internet Tethering' option Settings went missing after installing loads of games, utilities, tweaks. I recall tweaking 'Carrier Bundle Support' to allow me configure my MMS settings. Is that the possible cause? How do I enable it again? Pls helpppp.....

Looks like your tweaking the "Carrier Bundle Support" messed up the carrier bundle. Go http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/752226 and read more on fixing your issue.

hi all, back to my own question, i would like to share the solution, just for the sake of helping others..

ok, referring to my problem, i didnt see any solution at all except to restore the firmware and jailbreak again... but yesterday something funny happened. my cydia crash, for the first time... luckily i've browsed the the topic related before and when i face that problem, the solution just stumbled upon my mind and i tried it and it works. here's the link on how to overcome the cydia crash problem..

http://www.ipodtouchfans.com/forums/showthread.php?t=210765

okay now my cydia is back to working state again, and it manage to find an update to latest version of iBlacklist... well as usual i upgrade it, without any hassle..

after upgrading complete, i respring and tried out the iblacklist and it works as usual... to my surprise, the sms problem that i faced before, disappear completely!

if u asked me the detail, i dont know. and i dont want to play any guessing game.. but i hope with what im sharing all the gurus and iphone user here could figure out something when encounter the same problem.. anyway thanks all for helping me!

@prototype_x0
It's obviously the iBlacklist app. It have a privacy feature to hide the sms text. That's why I ask if you have any sms app or any kind. If you read the iBlacklist manual, under "extra" view there's a setting called SMS privacy. If that's turn on then you'll get the SMS like that.

Since you said the problem settled after upgrading iBlacklist, does that not indicate the issue was with iBlacklist? I've seen alot of this issue happening in the biteSMS forum where user have biteSMS and iBlacklist installed. That's why I ask if you have any SMS app installed that might conflict with it. Since you only have iBlacklist, I suspect it to be the culprit. If you upgrade iBlacklist and the problem still persist, then it's not iBlacklist thats causing the problem, right?

@denzel88
Make an adhoc connection. PC act as a wireless access point to iPhone. PC must have wireless card or USB wireless dongle.

Actually he wants to sync/transfer the previous owner apps/games to his iTunes. That will only work if the previous owner authorize him to do so. If not, even syncing to his own account will delete the games/apps from previous owner.

le3zard wants to transfer the current apps from previous owner to his iTunes without loosing it while syncing.

Since yours is the 1st gen phone, updating the firmware without waiting for a jailbreak solution is definitely a NO NO. It's because 1st gen iPhone need to be hacktivated (activated with a modified cert). Thats why you are stuck on the emergency call only.

Solution:
1. Wait for Dev Team to release jailbreak tool
2. Downgrade to 3.0.1 and rejailbreak

Good luck
