The iPhone Thread
(
https://www.team-bhp.com/forum/gadgets-computers-software/38465-iphone-thread-116.html)
Hey guys I tried making a new thread for Iphone apps but the mods want me to just include it in this thread. So here goes, these are the apps I have on my phone
1. Shazam, Its an amazing utility for detecting names of songs. You hold the phones mic towards the source of the music, and it detects the name of the song!
2. Around me & My nearest, this lists out things near your current location like Atms, Resturants, coffee shops
3. Traffic - This gives the current traffic situation on your route and also gives a predictive one for a time later
4. Excuse me - Its makes different farting sounds. Yes I know very juvenille but really fun :)
5. V-Cockpit , its like a flight stimulator works with your accelorometer, good fun on the train
5. Pocket dyno, its a dyno for the car though works on accelorometer and not actual connections. Pretty cool for petrol heads.
What apps do you guys have??

Am downloading the same as i post.
Edit: @Raj1008: last i checked i have 105 apps, too lazy to update the details now. Facebook and Birthday are 2 which i really use on a day to day basis, rest most are games.
Guys my iPhone died on me, I updated to 3.1 a week a ago and slowly the sickness started.. my sleep wake button stopped working... :Shockked: yup that's what i felt. sooon there was signs of bird flu with programs crashing while they were flying.. the call register had only MISSED calls the list of crazy chickenGuniya goes on, the blumin thing couldn't be re-started coz the button dont work! well itunes also dumped the phone with just basic info on log in. like whos phone, what name, number, IMEI..
Then I decide to restore, I had a custom restore from the upgrade so I did and in the process the mad thing crashed :eek: So now i'm left with a phone that tries to boot and goes to recovery mode and vis versa untill batt drains.
any suggestions? other than it being a paper weight on my table??? LOL
Specks: 2G phone with a few bumps and bangs (thanks to my adventurous kids), running on 3.0 when the heart attack struck!!

You use a mac right?
Download the pwnage tool and remake a custom ipsw file for 3.1. The old one may be corrupted. Then connect iPhone to iTunes, hold down the option key and click restore. It'll give u a dialogue box from where to choose the custom file. Choose and restore.
Should work.
Thanks Jaggu. I did go through that. However, I need advice on how to downgrade the baseband from 05.11.07 to 04.26.08.
Proxima. I assume you are on 3g phone.
Unlocking a 3.1 3G is difficult but doable. I will post in detail later on. Don't have access to a comp now and posting from my iPhone. Anyways, try downloading posix again via wifi. If it times out, go to network, select wifi and tap forget network. Then reselect and try again.
I need to go through the threads u posted since I am not very familiar with 3G. I have the 2G.
Whatever you do, do NOT upgrade to 3.1.2.
Gimme two days to give u a definite solution unless someone can help in the meanwhile.
And as jaggu said, I'm not a guru myself, I started playing with my iPhone because I hated paying someone to unlock it everytime it crashed. These were the initial days when the iPhone was just launched and Ziphone ruled the roost.
Thanks Tejas, would really appreciate it!
Tejas, does Push work in your 2G? Is it unlocked?

yes push does work on my 2g via google sync. Hotmail doesn't push.
Ping upgrade is out. Try that. Hopefully should work.
Tejas, was finally able to install Fuzzyband. Unfortunately, I have bootloader 05.09 and my phone cannot be unlocked at this moment.
I'm thinking of getting an Airtel Sim because my phone is locked to Airtel. So if I restore using iTunes, and use an Airtel sim, it will work, right?
