Where are these jailbroken apps downloaded from?

[goalie204]

When you jailbreak your iphone you are presented with an app known as cydia - think of it as your new app store for jailbreak things, settings, tweaks, themes, etc. you can still use the app store too, jailbreaking just gives you more customizing

Thanks. Here I go. Wish me luck.

The deed has been done. Now I just need to find which apps I "need".

If you jailbreak your phone, can you restore (un-jailbreak) it later?

Is there a free tethering app?

I don't think so, I looked. It's 10 or 15 bucks, but it's a one-time cost.
That was the one reason I wanted to jailbreak. Then when I balanced the bullsh1t against the benefit, I decided against it.
It's funny, not too many years ago I'd have been right on top of all this stuff. Now I'm old and lazy and don't want to be bothered. I'd rather take a nap.

i tether without needing an app..

[goalie204]

theres an app in cydia called MyWi - its 19.99 one time cost, and it creates a wifi hot spot out of your phone. (has a 3 day free trial)
- the free one just keeps track of your usage.

Do you guys in the states have to pay more for tethering or something? Ours just uses our data as normal

In order to add tethering to your iPhone, you have to switch to the new data plans, specifically, the DataPro plan. Before this change, iPhone users on AT&T would pick a voice plan plus a data plan that was $30 a month and that included unlimited data and tiered SMS plans. Voice and SMS prices remain unchanged but AT&T is going to drop the term “unlimited” from its data plan offerings and let users pick between two plans.

• DataPlus: Includes 200MB of data per month for $15.
• DataPro: Includes 2GB of data per month for $25. Add $20 if you want tethering.

Now I just need to find a useful theme and lock cydget.

Is there any way to keep the Installous applications from deleting when I sync my iPhone?

[Sauer Grapes]

If you set iTunes to not sync your apps automatically, it should solve the problem. I think you can go a step further and set it to manually do the apps, and then you should even be able to add or delete specific apps (iTunes apps) without affecting your installous apps.

I think I figured it out. I had to "Transfer Purchases from XXXXXXX" in the iTunes file menu.

Well,
Thanks to my 3 and a half year old grandson, looks like I am on my fourth iPhone 4 since they were released.

I think he decided to place it on the floor but from about three or four feet in the air and I think that somehow affected the mic for the video camera.
I was sounding muffled when I recorded.

Called Apple. They trouble shot it over the phone. Had me do a re-set. Didn't fix it. Gave me an appointment for the next morning (today) at the Apple store about 15 minutes from me, they confirmed the issue and gave me a new one to go on my way.

Don't know about others but I have had nothing but great service from this company for any of my devices.
