KNOW YOUR IPHONEIs the iPhone speaker stereo? Why only onesided? WHY MY IPHONE 3G/3GS SPEAKER ON THE RIGHT NOT WORKING? WHY MY IPHONE 4 SPEAKER ON THE LEFT NOT WORKING? -- Ask yourself why buy such expensive gadget and don't bother read the manual? Please read the manual that comes with the iPhone. It's given to you for a reason and for you to understand the functions of the iPhone. Even Maxis and Digi provide a guide book stating where the speaker and mic is. I hope this helps (picture speaks a thousand words): https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1548732/+1 Please read this as well: https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/868281 and download the iPhone IOS4 User Guide.

You need to ensure that your cellular data (either Edge or EDGE & 3G) is switched on before you can switch on the personal hotspot. Follow the instruction once the personal hotspot is switched on and you should be able to connect your Alien thingamajig with the iPhone 4

I think what dvlzplayground is asking if the PC can use the Wifi connection of the iPhone (not the iPhone's celullar connection). I'm not sure if this kind of "bridging" is available via the iPhone. I haven't tried it by the way. The personal hotspot for the iPhone can only be activated if the Celullar data/3G is enabled so I have a suspicion that it's specific for the Cellular/3G data sharing.
