Jailbreak iPhone, iPod Touch, iPad

SwirlyMMS is updated to v1.2.8. Many bugs are fixed.

Avaliable in Cydia for jailbreaked iPhones.

This is a step-by-step tutorial. If you have iPhone 3G this guide will help you jailbreak and activate the device. For iPhone 2G it will also perform the unlock.

I recommend using 2.2 firmware, because iPhone 3G unlock is avaliable now. But you can use it with old v2.1, v2.0.1 and v2.0.2.

PdaNet updated to version 1.33. This tool allows you to connect any desktop or notebook to internet through iPhone 3G. Here is a changelog:

This application is avaliable via Cydia Installer for jailbreaked iPhones.

The above message is shown at freechromethemes.com. Our guess is that Apple will never allow Chrome to make it to AppStore. However it will probably be avaliable via Cydia for jailbreaked iPhones.

Apple released firmware version 2.2 beta 1 a bit more than a week ago. Couple more features were hiden there.

First of all Apple has addressed one common request within the iPhone’s Keyboard settings, allowing users to disable the iPhone’s auto-correction.

The other feature is for Japanese market – Japanese emoji icons. The lack of emoji support has been blamed as part of the reason for slow iPhone adoption in Japan.

The third new feature is Street View. It allows users to view panoramic street level photographs in select cities within the Google Maps application.

Hopefully we will see more new features in this and next beta’s of 2.2 firmware.
