im asking him about iphone, then he told me to BUY a pendrive? haha. only a 15 yo kid can answer like that.

Given that the iPhone is not meant to be a portable drive like how you would want it to be, the best thing is suggested that a pendrive is more suitable for those purposes.

I do have a 16GB 3G iPhone and the main purpose for me is Media. Music is important to me and also my Movies that entertains me when i'm out on the road.

Also, as adults, words used are very important. Words like "stupid" etc is not etical and is not how a mature person uses his/her words.

We are here to help and learn. So, let this be a friendly place/forum.

Cheers mate

well iphone too is not meant to be video cam or for bluetooth filesharing. but you can predict what these kids will say - "install third app, sure can".

but when they find out they cannot answer my problem, they just say "buy a pendrive" !!

see the stupidity i have to overcome here?

You don't have to be so uptide about it mate. Small matter. You're an adult. Yo should know how to tackle such things. The more you complain, what you get in return? Nothing and what's the point of brewing anger or hatred? Waste of energy.

If you don't like the answers given..just say ...something else like: "Nah..i was hoping it can be a portable drive..etc". Doesn't this sound better..chill mate Chilll...

THANKS! biggrin.gif But I have no idea how it works. Will it lag if I keep running programs on the background? biggrin.gif Can I stop it from running? sleep.gif

After installation, launch your aplication and simply hold down the Home button to "minimize" the application. Call it back up again using its app icon, and then hold the home button again to kill it off for real. Backgrounder could worked with at least four apps up running.

Btw, This will definitely suck your batt usage.

This is weird.. Should there be any Backgrounder icons after I installed it? I don't have a backgrounder icon..

Bakgrounder it's a Mobile Substrate-based extension. So you will not see any icon on your homescreen.
