S.T.real,lights,out Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 Well i wanna jailbreak my phone b/c my home button is broken and i guess there is a way around it if your phone is jail broken. However i have no idea how to do it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
codeorama Posted August 3, 2010 Share Posted August 3, 2010 MiWi is $9.99 through RockApp, but there are other ways to tether. Handy Light App is one of them. It just requires more work from the user on setting it up.Netflix...it depends on the user. An intermediate user should be fine with it. The steps are detailed here: http://modmyi.com/forums/file-mods/721715-guide-netflix-iphone4.html Thank you. In general, how much of the features are free? I jailbroke my 3G and didn't pay for much of anything. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However i have no idea how to do it! Go to jailbreakme.com on your iPhone and boom, you are set. Thank you. In general, how much of the features are free? I jailbroke my 3G and didn't pay for much of anything. Thanks I'd say about 99% are free. It just depends on the source. I've always tethered with a free tweak in the past, I'm just waiting for things to be upgraded to 4.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I jailbreak my I4 or 3gS can I still sync with itunes? Will apple/att remotely disable my phone? Yes you can sync, and nobody can do anything to your phone.

I didn't realize this was out for the PC too, or else I wouldn't have asked Download the iPhone Explorer: http://www.macroplant.com/iphoneexplorer/ - it will let you navigate through the files and drag and drop them. Do you know the directory that you need to add the ROMs to? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jailbreakme.com worked great then a few months ago i was an idiot and upgraded the os to 4.0.2. Now i know there is a way to jailbreak this on my 3GS. But i cant find the easiest way to do it tried youtube and the dev team forum. Any help from anyone would be great!! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homercles82 Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 I think it is hilarious you need to hack your phone to play NES ROMS on it. I went to Android market, downloaded SNESOID Lite (free) and ROM Gripper (free). I can download games directly to my phone without hacking it. I also can get NESoid Lite (free), GBAoid Lite, and other old school emulators free. I also think it is hilarious that you need to hack your phone to do what you want on it. The only reason I would need to hack my Captivate is to get rid of the AT&T bloatware but I feel no compelling reason to do so. Also, be careful with facetime over 3G. You don't have unlimited data anymore on AT&T. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have unlimited data anymore on AT&T. AFAIK, the reason the phone cannot play NES ROMS is because it doesn't have the licensing from Nintendo to do it. I'm not so sure that playing ROMs and stuff even on the computer is legal. I could be wrong, but I am pretty sure that is why those apps are not available through the App Store. You can pretty much find anything in the Android Market, but there are some downfalls with the Android Market business model too. I read something a while ago that said over 3G FaceTime only uses 5MB or so per minute. It isn't that bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Homercles82 Posted November 18, 2010 Share Posted November 18, 2010 It is legal to play ROMS for the older systems because the copyright rules have run out and it isn't worth it for Nintendo to relicense them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't have unlimited data anymore on AT&T. Of course you can have unlimited data. It's only new customers that can't get the unlimited plan. If you had an iphone before then your plan is grandfathered in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
