I've spent quite a bit on apps, games, songs and videos myself. I'll shamefully admit that prior to getting an iPhone and being exposed to the US iTunes Store, I never bought any music online before. I was an mIRC dcc and Napster baby back in the days (young and very very broke tongue.gif) and I guess that habit kind of stuck. Well...better late than never. You realise though after you start actually paying for your music that you have to spend quite a damn lot of money for it blink.gif

Another observation is that FW2.2 improves battery life. When SSh and Wifi was turned on in FW2.1, my battery would drain like nobody's business but it seems to be greatly improved on FW2.2...

I really like the podcast feature for the 2.2. Means you can download great free content right off your phone but whatever you do, do not download Jamie Oliver podcasts off of iTunes in the middle of the night. Makes you effin hungry...

Are you jailbroken or not? Wait...doesn't matter. Refer to iPhone for Dummies ( http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/830708 ) sticky thread #8.

It should work. Make sure you have the latest version from Cydia.

No prob. Speaking of which, I can't wait for G-Map to officially launch...or any other 3rd party GPS apps for that matter...

Some unpleasant news.

iPhone firmware 2.2 reportedly locking unlocked iPhones

Other than your usual SIM card unlock the only place to get an officially unlocked iPhone is through Hong Kong and parts of Europe.  Unfortunately for those who spent untold amounts of money to get an unlocked iPhone 3G, it may all be in vain. The new iPhone firmware 2.2 is reportedly re-locking those iPhones.

Users in the Apple support forums are saying that if you purchase a legally unlocked iPhone and then updated it in another country the device may become locked. “I bought my iPhone 3G legally unlocked from HK, and I just upgraded to iPhone 2.2, but it seems my phone is locked now. On the phone it says emergency calls only and iTunes is saying not supported SIM.”

If you have an unlocked iPhone and have not yet upgraded to the iPhone firmware 2.2 we suggest holding off just in case this ends up being true. You don’t want all that hard earned cash going for nothing. If you simply can’t wait for the update, try getting your hands on the update from the country your iPhone came from.

I don't like how Apple is turning sneaky like this. It's very unfortunate.

Nice work detective... psyeo...you should change that title to Apple CoverT instead of Apple ConverT now. wink.gif

I didn't go and check out your theory though. In fact I remember there were units from a few different countries apart from HK that were affected too. But hey...Turbosim is possible..

On Interview With A Dev Team Member.

Nice one.

I liked the one where they interviewed Woz. Hehe...I bet he's worked on the Dev Team before.

Keep on trying to download again. You are not receiving the file because of a bad connection so the download is incomplete. Best times for download that I personally recommend is btwn 1pm and 7pm.

We still need to educate the forumers who make mistakes. Whether or not we choose to entertain their requests/questions, I think we should at least remind them to read the pinned threads and let them know existing solutions have been archived properly.

@Wolf516

Here, you can go check this pinned thread: http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/836942

Once you do that, I'm sure a lot of bros in here can assist you in actually finding a unit if you ask for a referral. For example there are a few reliable LYN sellers in here who offer the iPhone. I am going down to Singpore this 19th so if you want me to help you pick one up for you, let me know in advance. I will call my supplier to arrange something.

Not sure about the average price now but it should be btwn RM2100 to RM2800 depending on where the iPhone is from. (for the fully unlocked iPhone 3G 16GB)

Well if you're serious, I'll send my guy a msg now and I should get a reply within a day or two. Expect the price to be about the RM2600-RM2700 mark for the 16GB version.
