are there anymore good free tweaks in cydia anymore ?
i see all the useful & good ones also need to pay ..

app supported biteSMS is a great one if you haven't download it yet


anyway,


Anyone want to write a nicely done step by step guide (with pictures) on how to upgrade your iOS from your jailbroken device (for example upgrade to iOS 4.3.1 from a jailbroken 4.2.1 iOS, and then jailbreak the iOS4.3.1), without losing any of your data (include SMS, contacts, music, purchased app from app store, purchased app from cydia, tweaks and repo from cydia, games save file)?



I personally think that many will want to know this and whenever got someone ask it again, we can always ask them refer to 1st page.

credits will be given lol

iPhones on 4.2.1 i think got 3 types -
- 4.2.1 official factory unlock. therefore no need care about baseband.
- 4.2.1 carrier locked but baseband remain when upgrade from 4.1 or earlier ver.
- 4.2.1 carrier locked & update to iPad baseband 06.15.00 to unlock

step by step guide will have to be very precise .. otherwise 2nd & 3rd type of iPhones will have prob ..

last week, i update a 3GS for a friend of mine. cos he screwed up cydia when it was updated to a newer ver. cydia icon missing. he told me it's factory unlocked. so i didn't bother to check. after update from 4.1 to 4.3.1, only know it's a carrier locked set. lucky SHSH was saved in cydia. downgrade back to 4.2.1. then only can unlock & use. if SHSH not saved, i think that he walloped me already.. lesson i learnt, no matter how fren, don't do for free anymore.. & better to check the model..

no need about that. what i want to put on 1st page is how to backup everything and put it back to ur phone

not what you mentioned since those i already put at 1st page (like use redsnow when don't care about unlocked and such)

As House likes to say " Everybody Lies" ....

As for step by step guide,

Go to iClarified.com and you get all sorts of tutorial. Very precise, very detailed.

As for restoring all you data. Just make sure you backup everything to iTunes before you do the jailbreak. Once the jailbreak is done, just restore the backup and sync all your apps again and all your contacts, saved data will be there.

I used PwnageTool for my 4.3.1 upgrade from a GreenPoison Jailbreak for my 4.2.1, no issue whatsoever ... I know that if you are using RedSn0w, then you will need a fresh stock upgrade to 4.3.1 and then Redsn0w will do the exploit injection to jailbreak. So two types of method and both are okay. Just depends on your preference.

iclarified guide is like what i posted, it just teach you how to Jailbreak, doesn't have a nice step by step guide on how to backup, which app to use for cydia tweaks and app and such such

iControl ($4.99 on Cydia store)

The author claims that by installing it will increase your battery life by 100%. Whao what?

Well, it's because you can set it so that when your phone is locked, it will automatically turn off 3G, Wifi, and Bluetooth. This is really a very nice feature in my opinion so that when I am not using my phone, it can save battery by turning off 3G and wifi.

However, it does have it's cons.

Since every time I unlocked my phone, I will feel lag due to it's need to reconnect to wifi and 3G. I can actually survive with this but a bug I found is that sometimes even when I unlocked the phone, it won't connect to 3G, and when i check back my settings, i notice 3G is off.

Besides, I don't know is it me or what, but since I am using Lockinfo, and if I am not mistaken, when you are connected to the internet using EDGE, you can't call or calls won't come in. Hence I had miss a few calls during the time I am using iControl I am guessing that the same time it was refreshing my email or whatever app, somebody call and it enter voicemail directly. I am not too sure about it though.

Another features of iControl is App Blacklist.

According to them, it means that those app in the blacklist will be automatically killed once you locked the phone. Which is really a good function for me since I don't use Sbsettings (yet), and I do notice when certain app run in background my battery actually drains faster.

However, this feature does not work at all. I tried a few times but all failed.

I had now learned my lessons. I should not simply buy any app in cydia store I want. Some googling gives me very little result of review of iControl. Most of the major iPhone blog does not review it maybe because it's sux or whatever I don't know. I should really wait for sometime until some good reviews came up before I pay for it.

Anyway, the concept of iControl is really really good, I do hope they can fix their problem and get it more polished , and then it will just become another must have app for me.

Value of Money: 1/10
Features: I will give it a 10/10 on it's feature list, but a 1/10 when I use it since 1/2 of what it mentioned does not function, and 1/2 of it did functioned but laggy and buggy

Thanks mate.
Indeed Sam has the auuthority to open and close as he's the Thread started. I told him i'll be away to Tioman till Wednesday and i really hope we do not need to close this thread again.

Anyway, if there are forumers who post on piracy, as usual, report them and rebuke them hard if you need to.  If we have 2 offenders, Sam will close this thread for 2 days as per our agreement. 

Cheers

if you rip anything from copyright CD, DVD sure we consider that as piracy.

OT but eh...i thought if you bought the CD yourself, you can ripped it to mp3 which does not violated the law?

Not only pictures but they actually stated the pirated app which is very well know among us. All dopey loons sellers were given 7 days account suspension and one got 30 days account suspension for having 10+ threads selling iPhones with piracy included in his sales service.

It's crazy to find 70+ iPhone selling threads with piracy included in their sales. Let's start an anti piracy iPhone ops in garage sales section. Let's destroy them loons and kick them hard.

Please report any loons who is providing piracy in their sales. We need to keep this forum clean from such loons.

whao...this is bad lol.

so now they are hidding in garage sales instead here huh?
