Hi, ok... yeah, as the topic stated it.

I'm just worried/wondering/figuring/solving this weird problem.

This happened, let's say 3 days ago. I've an unlocked iPhone 3GS 32G, jailborken using my mac and blackra1n, OS:3.1.2 base band 5.11.7.

I usually charge my phone using the wall plug socket. Now, since three days ago... I've done nothing much with my iPhone, jsut the usuals, calls, sms... a bit of tweeting... when i synced it with my itunes, i realized that my "Other" filer size gotten bigger, from 500mb to 5gigs... then increased to 8gigs... I got so worried i ejected my iphone and decided not to touch it anywhere near my iTunes... i dont know how it manage to get bigger and bigger.. hence wasting a huge block of space in my itunes... I was wondering could this be a random virus created by Apple™? jsut to pawn us jailbroken users?

I've tried to track down where's the origin of the "other" file size using DiskAid for Macs.. and it was under Private/Var/*a 3-lettered file*/cydia's .log format..
that particular size was like 6gigs...so i've personally concluded that it's something to do wtih cydia or the jailbroken side of the phone that is causing a mass space wastage with unknown file... :/... very worrying...
I've tried switching off my phone *holding the stanby button, then sliding the off screen*... then switch it back on... the "other" file size remains that big...

but then again.. i tried rebooting my phone under my SBSsettings function... it somehow managed to solve my problem... the "other" file size went back from 8 gigs to 500mb...

So i'm asking if anyone have/has encounted this issue? How to resolve it? Is it a new virus? or something screwed up along the way?
I called my friend the same night i discovered that my "other" file size was getting bigger, he checked his phone.. and his phone was 13gigs size for his "other" section.. 45 minutes later, he called me and told me that his phone crashed/died... :/

This issue is worrying me to nuts1!!!
:S

Guys, I've got a problem here... I am using a Maxis set 3GS 16gb, 3.1.2 jailbroken with Blackra1n.. I have noticed that my iPhone speakers are quite soft which I never noticed it until I compared it with my gf's iPhone.... It's really soft when I played a recording with the phone somehow.. Does anyone has similar experience and is this due to jailbreak or the speaker having problems?

well bro jailbreak only just change the system here and there..nothing much..if your speaker are soft it is not because of jailbreak...maybe some hardware problem...have check the volume limit on the ipod in the settings...sometimes it is low over there..or you have choose a improper eq...try checking that first...

My phone shows that I use 1.2 GIG data overall, but when the bill came, I need to pay extra rm250 to maxis because apparently I have used 1.7++. And maxis doesnt allow you to check how many you have used so far, which is frickin retarded, by the way.

My question is, tracking iphone data usage, does anyone know how to do this accurately?

@eugenechiuu

If there is no hardware problem, install Volume Boost from Cydia and that should help at least some.

no viable solution yet, as far as i can see.
