I thought it might be useful to make a thread for general questions concerning iDevices.
This thread it intended for asking general questions or giving useful hints or suggestions, where you feel a new thread would be too much.

Please keep this thread clean of Apple ranting, for bashing Apple please go here.

Let's see how this thread goes, maybe it will soon be dead, but maybe people will like it. Smile



So let me start off with 2 questions:

1.
Is there any decent Appblocker for Safari? I tried using Appblock from Cydia, but it didn't do anything as far as I noticed... And yes, I used the correct lists in the app...

2.
Is there an app to make other Apps think you are on Wifi? Certain Apps like the Gamespot games for example require a Wifi connection to play over the internet. Now I might want to play over 3G as well, but it won't let me. Can you spoof this?

1. I wish there was, but there isn't.
2. Yes- my3G but it's not free (unless you get a cracked version)

A question of my own - when the fuck is 4.2.1 going to be broken? I don't want to have to plug in my iphone 4 every time I reboot it!

4.2.1? forget about it! 4.3 now is where it's going to be at since 4.3 is the next big one thats on its way and 4.2.1 was just bug fixes.

Waiting for a new FW is so stupid IMO... It's only a matter of a few weeks anyway until Apple releases a new update with tightened security, so the jailbreak won't be available for the newest FW anyway...

Yeah you need to back up your SHSH blob as soon as you get the phone so that way you can downgrade.

Glad i'm not on 4.2 because i've heard there are a lot of 3rd party app compatibility problems and a lot of stuff doesn't work beyond 4.1 right now.

It depends on the app and when they update it. 4.1 software running on a 4.2 system can be flakey. However, if the 3rd party recompiles using 4.2 everything should run fine down until 3.2.

I've been playing with the 4.3 beta at the minute. No huge changes for the stuff we (work) use it for.

Ok, so I had to format my PC. I saved my Itunes library and restored it, but still when I connect my Iphone, it says "already connected to another media library" and then it wants to delete my phone (at least all the apps). I do have a backup, so I could do that, but I just don't want to.
Also it's the same with my girlfriends Iphone, and I am definitely sure SHE doesn't want to reinstall every app.

So is there any way to make it work with my new PC without having to sync everything again?

Is it just file copying? Can't you then just jailbreak it and shove the files on your phone yourself?

Erm I hooked up a mate's iPhone to my laptop a while ago, installed iTunes for the occasion. It asked me to authorize the laptop to use with the phone, did you get that dialog?

iTunes still is a complete piece of shit though, I ended up having to fiddle in its config files to get it to update that phone (3GS) Neutral

Yes of course I authorized that PC. It has nothing to do with that, it's just like when you would go to a friends PC with Itunes, it would ask the same question. Apparently you can only have 1 PC with 1 library active at any time. Any you can't just change it, no you have to remove all apps as well...
I really hate Itunes... Sad

I will be at my girlfriends parent's house for a few day to come. They do not have Wifi, only wired Internet. I am going to bring my laptop there, but is it possible to share the connection over Wifi for my Iphone in any way? The laptop will obviously be using the wired internet, so the wifi-adapter is unused.
Is there any software/app that will allow this?

For both Windows and OS X there are plenty of ways to set up a WiFi hotspot, just Google for "<Windows or OS X here> wifi hotspot" Smile

Should be fine, yes. The apps are stored per-account and should transfer to any device you have synced to your machine on the same account.

Shocked

Nice boss! I wish my boss would give me an iPad lol Razz

There must be an answer to this somewhere in this forum. Im sure it has been asked.

Found it: http://www.nfohump.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=67498

Id go with the Angry Birds games, Infinity Blade, Rage, Superbrothers Sword and Sworcery EP, Dead Space, Sacred Odyssey, Order of Chaos if you like WoW; that must be good on iPad. Words with Friends is one I play a lot but wont appeal if you dont like Scrabble Razz


May the NFOrce be with you always.
