Web Apps Can Mimic Real Apps
What you are you seeing in these screenshots may seem like a real iPhone application, but it's not. It's a web page displayed in full screen, completely out of Safari, behaving and looking exactly as any native iPhone program would do. The best thing: It is not a new feature of the incoming iPhone OS 2.2 update: The secret feature is "hidden" in the current 2.1 version and only requires one thing: HTML code embedded in the web page itself. No iPhone modification is required. If you are browsing this from the iPhone, you can try it yourself very easily:
1. Open this link using safari -
http://webapp.net.free.fr/Demo/Index.html2. Click on the + icon and add the page to the iPhone home screen.
3. Go out and click on the saved application.

HereStep 1There are also a couple files that you need to download off of your iPhone before you can convert them. Use a program like iPhoneBrowser or iBrickr.
The files are:
Photo Database
F3004_1.ithmb
F3008_1.ithmb
F3009_1.ithmb
F3011_1.ithmb
They are located at:
/var/Mobile/Media/Photos/
and
/var/Mobile/Media/Photos/Thumbs
Step 2Copy all five files and the program to:
C:\tmp
(Note: the directory is not important, but this is for simplicity.)
Step 3Click Start > Run.
Type "cmd" and hit enter.
This will bring up the command prompt.
Step 4Now you need to navigate to the folder that you downloaded the five files at.
Type "cd c:\tmp" and hit enter.
Step 5Now type "iThmbConv.exe"
There will be a list of examples on how to use the program.
Step 6Type "iThmbConv c:\tmp\F3008_1.ithmb" and hit enter.
Note: be sure that this file is the largest one you downloaded, if it isn't, choose the one that is.
Step 7You will now have a bunch of files in your tmp directory that have a .ppm extension.
You can open these files using Photoshop and save them as you want.
You could even use a batch to convert them all at one time.
Or you can use irFanview to view and convert the *.ppm files ..SourceThis post has been edited by Fighteden: Nov 4 2008, 08:23 PM
