    Ok, so before I take the plunge, when I buy the iPhone, how do I unlock it if they say they have to put in a SIM card from AT&T? Every guide I see has the iPhone jailbroken...so my question is:

    Can the iPhone be jailbroken while the screen looks like this:



    i want to say that the pineapple hack thing I did (what was the name again?) should work since you have to have the computer recognize it as a new device and have iTunes off. So maybe with the iPhone plugged in and iTunes off, the jailbreaking should work? My next issue is, if after the jailbreak, will I be able to use the iPhone as an iPod Touch or will I be stuck at the same screen? If I can use it as an iPod Touch and use Cydia, I'm golden.

    A lot of questions nonetheless, but I gotta know if it works.
  2. I think you can. How you would is a whole other question.

    I think you can get the phone now without going on a contract and just go pre-paid instead. So that would mean you still buy the SIM card from AT&T or whoever as pre-paid (not putting any credit on it), jailbreak as usual and then use yellowsnow in Cydia and use your normal 3G SIM. You probably want to use T-Mobile?

    You'll have to stop by modmyi.com (ipodtouchfans are a lot stricter on that stuff) and ask them how.

    Ay, you want a theme when it's done with darker buttons and less bright colours?

    I talked to my friend and he said you can buy the iPhone no strings attached.

    That works I guess. So I would get a prepaid plan from AT&T, use that SIM card, then jailbreak. 3G SIM? I think that's what my SIM card is, as it is comptonle with the TMobile Dash which I think is 3G or something.

    Thanks for the tip mate!

    That would be cool, isn't that an option on Springboard/Winterboard though?
  4. Having the Nokia 5800 in mind
  5. I don't think it is. This is the buttons changed to more darker colours and transparent icons.

    So there you go with the prepaid SIM.

  7. On topic, I installed google chrome the other day Its image saving system sucks, but I like the rest.
  8. got a problem you guys...


    my pc (vista, 4GB RAM, quad 2,3GHz) is running wild for no apparent reason. got some usual stuff running like the internet explorer, msn, gdata internet security. minor stuff, actually, but the thing gets LOUD, internet gets stuck/slow, cursor reacts slowly as if I was trying to play some monster game or run a big ass programme. I think it's because of bittorrent, but then again, why would it make so much trouble? it never did before, I certainly would have noticed. scanner shows no viruses or the like.

    pcs not old at all, got it in november. so, hardware-wise everything should be fine, I think. any tips?
