Question by Sadf A: If you unlock an iPhone and use another carrier can you use data?
I downloaded blackrain and it gives me the option to unlock it for use with other carriers. I feel bad now, could I have just bought an iphone without a plan and put my sprint contract on it and only paid 30 bucks a month? Can you still use data and the app store and everything if your not at and t?

Best answer:

Answer by James H
Yes, you can still use data, because that will be provided by Sprint, and you can use the App Store, because that’s provided by Apple. AT&T have no control over that.

Any iPhone in the world, with any carrier in the world can use data and access the App Store. AT&T doesn’t have a worldwide exclusive on the iPhone.

Restore iPhone as new and Still Keep App’s data and Saved Games

Posted by on December 13, 2011 in Uncategorized with 50 Comments

I finally got around to creating a video for my tutorial on how to restore your jailbroken iDevice (ipad, ipod touch, iphone) as new and still be able to keep your saved games. Here is a link to the thread I created over at ModMyi on how to do it: modmyi.com The reason you would want to restore as a new iDevice is because junk builds up when you are jailbroken. This can cause battery life problems, slow apps, and crashes. I recommend restoring at least every two months if possible. This tutorial makes it a lot easier to do so. The requirements for this is a jailbroken iDevice that will also be jailbroken after the restore. You will also need to either SSH or use iPhone Explorer to gain root access to your device. iPhone Explorer: m.macupdate.com You may also need to download “afc2add” in Cydia to allow for accessing your device’s root files through USB.

Air Video is a pretty cool solution to playing video on an iPad, iPhone, or iPod Touch. Rather than taking up valuable storage on the device, you can use Air Video to stream video.

Question by Mike: Do you need a data plan with an iPhone if the sim card you are using now has unlimited internet?
I am planning to buy and iPhone, but don’t know if I need a data plan. I’m gonna use my current sim card that has unlimited internet. I don’t wanna get charged extra money just because I don’t have a data plan. Anyone have an answer?

Answer by ddominic
You would need another sim card. A T&T iphones uses a smaller sim card then the regular A T&T cell phones. The sizes of the sim card are different. No matter what you would be require to get a data plan. Plus with A T&T there are no more unlimited plan for the iphone. Only 500MB or 2GB of data internet plan for the iphone.

How to turn off 3g Data on the iphone?

Question by ali z: How to turn off 3g Data on the iphone?
I’m planning to buy and iPhone 3G from ebay, but i don’t plan to have a data plan for a few months. Now what I’m scared of is that I’ll accidently browse the internet on the 3G signal instead of WiFi, causing me to receive a huge bill for it from AT&T.

Is there a way to turn of 3G data, yet keep the calling and wifi features on at the same time via setting or something?

Best answer:

Answer by Jessii; Is mee (:
You can turn off 3G altogether, and talk on the EDGE network, but depending where you are and what plan you’re on, that might incur roaming charges (I can’t say for sure – I live in Australia – But it would depend on your network).
Or there is this unofficial solution: http://www.ehphone.ca/2008/07/how-to-disable-data-on-your-iphone-or-iphone-3g/

Good luck

Jailbreak iPhone 3G on 4.0.1, 4.0.2 mms and data fix! [ORIGINAL]

Posted by on May 11, 2011 in Uncategorized with 25 Comments

READ!!! 1. If you’ve already jailbroken ur iphone on ios 4.O or some other firmware. Then restore your iPhone+update to 4.0.1. If not, then just update it to 4.0.1 2. Download Redsn0w rumahabi.com Download iOS 4 firmware www.redmondpie.com 3. Run Redsn0w and jailbreak. The 4.0.1 fixes the MMS problem some people had (they couldn’t send MMS). I had this problem too and now its fixed. This jailbreak allows the 3G to have multitasking and freedom of 3rd party apps. I am not responsible for any damage to your iphone or computer. Download and run at your own risk. ALSO! I’ve been seeing my video copied and uploaded to other people’s channels. Unless its a funny viral video i don’t see why thats necessary. please don’t steal my video. thanks

The Apple iPhone

iPhones are simply amazing. They function as a camera phone, including text messaging and visual voicemail, a portable media player, and an Internet client, with e-mail, web browsing, and Wi-Fi connectivity. The user interface is built around the device's multi-touch screen, including a virtual keyboard rather than a physical one. Third-party applications are available from the App Store, which now has well over 200,000 "apps" approved by Apple. These apps have diverse functionality, including games, reference, GPS navigation, social networking, and advertising for television shows, films, and much more.
