3) Can you guys with us here any goods and interestings software and application..

Thanks All For Support!

DO NOT restore...if dont know what u r doing.....!!!!

Restore for ?
I dont see any reason to restore the iphone.

Its not like windows, need to sei mang reformat. rofl.

Back in the 1.1.x firmware states, every time new firmware has been released I will always restore and jailbreak it as new firmware improves performance and stability. In 2.0.x and above, I rarely do a restore unless problem occurs. A lot of work has to be done restoring a locked iPhone is more hassle and than breeze.

aiya.. i believe all of us 'rarely' restore iphone.. what i'm going to share here is when we restore or buy new iphone, what is the most important software or mods u going to have... aiya...

restore+Jailbreak+cydia+SBsetting+SwirlyMMS+biteSMS+latest apps from apple+latest game frm itunes= my iphone

irealsms+swirlymms+boss pref+pocketmoney+idb+ucweb+send contact+power word+mobile files+wefit+show 24

yea... i'm using firmware 2.2, jailbreak+cydia, bosstools, bossprefs, sbsetting, swirlymms, bitesms.. then come myiphone..

is there any comment of upgrading to iphone 3g?

i restore , mine whenever i wish to
specially when ive got NBTD

dun feel any major difference between 2g and 3g, the only thing major is the speaker sounds alot better now

stick to ur 2g for now, and gps cost money with google maps

huhu... yeah.. i like ur advice.. i buy my iphone 2g @ used condition.. battery life is about 2 days.. is it a normal battery life for iphone?(maximum usage of sms, call about 1-2 hours everyday) or u think that i have problem with my battery? one more thing, do the battery life also depend on what firmware u are using?

Yes thats about the battery life for ur condition, dun worry, i used iPods before, and i can say that all ipods battery are awesome, including iphones.

and yes, newer firmware may have better optimisation , hence longer battery life

I had done the DFU restore twice.. Then JB it.. No problem so far..

huhu... that's why i'm stick to iphone.. but still not satisfied coz buyin 2nd hand sets... proud if can buy new set :-(

People no longer use 2G phones which limited their speed to GPRS. Its nearly obsolete.
Nowadays people are using 3G and some of them have 3.5G speed.
Apple is quite late is developing HSDPA (3.5G) iPhones whereas other vendors have made it as a standard features..

My iphone suddenly touch screen is not working.. cant slide to answer if a call comes.. no sensation at all...what to do ?
Is this a known problem with the iPhone or with unlocked iPhones? I rebooted it by holding the Home key and the shut down key on the top. it still now working..

So my final option is to restore my iphone via itunes.. any specific "procedule" need to take care??
And how to jailbreak?

Thanks
