post #3 "*****..... pls delete post"
post #4 "BAN his ass!"
post #5 "no you haven't
go join another forum please....we are trying to keep this one with an educational style spirit.
you are not really welcome here kid." - fishbert, on 10/20/2007, -4/+35The iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store is going to be a smashing success. I can feel it.
/sarcasm
/orgasm
/legspasm - jdaniel284, on 10/10/2007, -2/+27This device doesn't seem near the fun it was advertised to be. I'm glad I am too poor to afford one.
- 1ofMany, on 11/03/2007, -4/+23Isn't it ironic that Steve Jobs was once a big time phone hacker (back in his college days) and is now out to punish the people that have hacked his phone...
- fishbert, on 10/10/2007, -2/+15I could recycle it for you...
- gregsmamma, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12Does anyone know if they are working on a way to update unlock phones?
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -2/+12Jobs wasn't a hacker by any means. He was (and still is) a slimy no-talent salesman who has to rely on the technical expertise of others just like he relied on the BlueBox made by Woz.
- Protoss, on 10/20/2007, -2/+11Epic fail.
- fishbert, on 10/10/2007, -0/+9Oh, I see in the forum that only wi-fi works after the downgrade... the baseband is not down-graded, so the phone feature does not work. (yet)
- monospaced, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9It will, especially when AT&T licenses some more of their phones to access it.
- Fracture98, on 10/20/2007, -0/+8Felony Stupid.
- fishbert, on 10/10/2007, -1/+8not yet... but with access to everything else on the phone, it's only a matter of time.
- XMashedPotatoX, on 10/10/2007, -2/+91.1.1 UNLOCKED (downgraded to 1.0.2):
http://hackint0sh.org/forum/showthread.php?t=9027 - inactive, on 10/20/2007, -0/+7Devoid of Win.
- Cyber_Akuma, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6Its Sony vs the PSP Hackers all over again...
I welcome iDark_AleX - indiekiduk, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7Can you downgrade the bb firmware?
- SpacedCowboy, on 10/10/2007, -4/+9On the contrary, the device is fantastic. It's only morons who upgraded their phone after Apple told them it would brick it that are having problems. Of the 1% or so of customers who've modded their phones, those of us with more than one brain cell decided we'd be better off with a fully-open and accessible phone, and we could do without the new features until it was safe to upgrade.
But this is Apple, so you only hear the waaah waaaaah waaaaaaaah from Gizmodo. Seriously, if Apple told those guys not to put their hand in a fire, they'd burn themselves, and then blame Apple... - largobargo, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6Then by your own admission, there is no such thing as a bricked anything because with enough technical knowledge any device can be restored. You're not as smart as you think you are.
- positron, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5Only if you can stare at http://www.zombo.com for 10 minutes straight and prove it by upping the video to youtube.
- deVida, on 10/10/2007, -1/+5And in three days, the Jesus Phone rose again!
- thequixotic, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4I know hacking the iPhone is jolly exciting, but it is called the i PHONE for a reason...
It's like collecting your car from the garage and the guy saying "well, we still can't get the engine working, but the radio and air-con are perfect!" - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Too soon to celebrate...
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+4I wish you were poorer so you couldn't afford a PC and nag us with silly comments. ; )
- kris33, on 10/10/2007, -3/+6This is really cool! The technique actually makes it possible for the iPod touch to run third party applications.
http://digg.com/apple/iPhone_1_1_1_update_backfire ... - jonshipman, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2it's not even that heavy
- HappyScrappy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I expect you could with the hardware (original Geomod) hack because that hack doesn't depend on what SW is in the baseband, the probes make the SGold2 lose its mind.
But no hack in SW right now. - DigitAl56K, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I believe that would now be Hackers 2, Apple 0, AT&T -92837496124
- spargett, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2So to be clear, if I downgrade (Using AT&T, haven't unlocked my phone - just 3rd party apps) I won't be able to use the phone portion? No calls, etc?
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3another fine product?
- themastersb, on 10/10/2007, -3/+5So can I call an unbricked iPhone a "Zombie iPhone"?
- dagamer34, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2In the end, Sony got owned too. In fact, it only took a day for the slim PSP to be hacked. You'd think it would take longer than that for a hardware redesign.
- pu-z, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I wouldn't exactly say that he is a "no-talent" sales guy... Otherwise, you're probably correct.
- TejInLA, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Yeah, sounds like it's an iTouch instead. But I guess it's still better than an iBrick.
- fishbert, on 10/10/2007, -2/+4Yeah, I've been pretty happy with mine. And it only got better a week or two ago when I plunged in to the 3rd party apps.
People are upset over this recent update because they care about the stuff they were using with the phone. If people weren't enamored with the device, there wouldn't be so much unrest. - r3zonance, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1The device is user-friendly and easy to use. The hacking is the difficult stuff, and as far as user-experience goes for hacking, Apple couldn't give a ***** how easy it is to do that.
- nave7693, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Is this just me or does it really sound exactly like the whole affair with the PSP?
- r3zonance, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1It's not a brick, the definition of a brick (electrically) is a device that does absolutely nothing, and is unresponsive (bit like Windows Mobile).
Unlike the iPhone, which can be re-activated with an AT&T sim, and all the non-phone functionality still works perfectly. - suprxtragrav, on 12/09/2008, -1/+2I am so glad i'm too poor to have bought an iphone now haha
- kraftyballs, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Who appeared first.. the nerd or the bully?
- fishbert, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I don't understand what you mean. A lot of people have been quite pleased with the quality 3rd party apps that have been released, and more than a few are quite pleased with being able to use the phone on the network of their choice (especially those not in the U.S.)
- r3zonance, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1The phones aren't bricked, otherwise you wouldn't be able to do anything with them.
- r3zonance, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Same here. I've already made about 15 song purchases I wouldn't have necessarily made if I'd had to go to my computer.
Excellent idea on Apple's part. - Cyber_Akuma, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Might make a decent paperweight or doorstop...
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2You mean the Zombie Jesus Phone!
- fishbert, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I don't know about for non-unlocked phones... all I've seen has been in the context of reversing the iBrick problem.
You might poke around on the iPhone Dev forums. (linked in the article) - r3zonance, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1"Come'on, you know Apple probably could've implemented the patch without messing with the EFI"
Yes, if the iPhone was a Mac, but it's a phone (essentially PDA hardware) which doesn't have an EFI. Plus a ton of cellphone hacking requires the modem firmware to be modified.
Stop looking for something that isn't there. - Cyber_Akuma, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Its all iCrap to me.
- oosnoopy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1The phone doesn't work.
Yay for an overpriced function lacking PDA? - jepizacar, on 08/21/2008, -0/+1nice resource....
