How to Get MMS on the 3.1, 3.01, 3.0 Firmwares! NO JAILBREAK! EASY!

By alexosh1234 3.0 Firmware, 3.1 Firmware, How to, iPhone, Mac, mac os x, MMS, Mod, News, Overview, Uncategorized 101 Comments »

Brand NEW: You can now download this file which runs the terminal/command code for you and comes with the ipcc files. Download http://myurlz.com/mms1 and then you choose either the Mac or Windows Files. Unzip them, use winrar for windows to unzip, and then you have 2 folders. Click on the iPhone or executable file which runs the code in terminal or command. Its pretty obvious. The iPhone code extension is .app and the widows in .bat to recognize it.  After, you run the code, open up itunes(make sure it is closed during this), plug  your device in, and update to the ipcc file which you can download or it comes in the file you downloaded. Hope this helps. Comment if you need more help.


DOWNLOAD LINK for IPCC FILE USING FIREFOX!!!!!!(works on both Mac and Windows):  http://myurlz.com/IPCC

http://www.megaupload.com/?d=32PSIL6U

Safari screws up the file structure of the ipcc file!

The first few steps are the same as before, we must enable IPCC updates in iTunes 8.2 (9.0 works too). Here are the instructions on how to get MMS on your iPhone, iPhone 3G, and iPhone 3Gs. YOUR DEVICE DOES NOT HAVE TO BE JAILBROKEN!

From my research, this works on 3.0, 3.01, and 3.1

You have to run a command in Terminal(Mac) or the Command Console(Windows)
This allows you to update to the new IPCC file in iTunes which is very easy.

Mac OS X:
Close iTunes if it is open
Start Terminal (Applications > Utilities)
Run the following command: defaults write com.apple.iTunes carrier-testing -bool TRUE

Windows 2000/XP/Vista (32-bit):
Go to Start -> Run (
type in “command” and hit enter
Type/copy+paste this into the command console that comes up: “C:\Program Files\iTunes\iTunes.exe” /setPrefInt carrier-testing 1
Hit enter


Windows XP/Vista (64-bit):
Go to Start -> Run (
type in “command” and hit enter
Type/copy+paste this into the command console that comes up: “C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes\iTunes.exe” /setPrefInt carrier-testing 1
Hit enter

DIRECTIONS FOR EVERYONE(MAC and PC)

Download the file to some location on your computer
Plug in your iPhone
Start iTunes
Click on your iPhone in the device listing in iTunes
Alt(option)-Click the “Update” button (Shift-click in Windows)
Browse to where you saved the IPCC you downloaded
Select the file and click Choose (or OK on windows i think)
Once it updated, Reboot your iPhone

You should now have working MMS! Unlike previous hacks, this one should not disable your Visual Voicemail feature. Comment on the post if you are having trouble or on the YouTube video. Make sure to tweet about the article and video/tell your friends! Check out the other features of the site too! BOOKMARK if ya want :-)

How To: Make Your Logitech Mouse Compatible with Snow Leopard

By alnandr accessory, Forum, How to, Logitech, mac os x, snow leopard, Tutorial 20 Comments »

Logitech MX Revolution wireless mouse

Note: The configurations for this tutorial was made on a Logitech MX Revolution mouse, and may vary depending on your model of Logitech mouse.

As of this writing, Logitech has not *officially* released updated drivers that allow installation on Apple’s latest operating system, Snow Leopard, version 10.6. Forum users from Logitech’s official community message boards have posted a way to quickly get Snow Leopard to install the latest version of the Logitech Control Center (ver 3.0) and on how to enable Exposé with your thumb wheel as well.

Install Logitech Control Center 3.0

A user named “powerbookguy” offered these working instructions to install LCC 3.0 on Snow Leopard:

To install Logitech Control Center 3.0 on Snow Leopard (Mac OS 10.6), follow these steps:

1.Alternate-click the LCC Installer and select “Show Package Contents”
2.Navigate to Contents > Resources > Logitech Control Center.mpkg and run this file
3.The installer will run and then request a reboot.

After you have installed the Logitech Control Center and reboot your Mac, your mouse will be functional again. You are also able to customize your mouse via the System Preferences pane that Logitech installs.

Mentioned by “MickeyS” on the thread, as of yet the Logitech mouse will only work when Snow Leopard is running in 32-bit kernel/extension mode. That means if you don’t boot your Mac in 64-bit mode (by holding down the “6″ and “4″ keys, which you probably don’t) then you are fine.. otherwise you’ll have to make this change.

Enable Exposé thumb-wheel feature

All of the mouse features work correctly except for Exposé, because LCC requires that Exposé.app be in the /Applications folder. All you have to do is simply COPY the Expose.app file from the /Applications/Utilities folder to the /Applications folder. DO NOT MOVE THE FILE, COPY IT.

After you do these changes, your Logitech mouse will be able to work again correctly, and you can configure it once again to your liking.

And of course, if you do not want to take any risks, you may wait until Logitech releases updated drivers with Snow Leopard support, but that’ll take some time according to a forum moderator.

Change System Strings on 3.0

By KC 3.0 Firmware, Cydia, Hack, Hidden, How to, iPhone, iPod Touch, Jailbreaking, Mobile Config File, Tutorial, Winterboard 8 Comments »

So, this morning I planned on giving a great detailed article over how to change system strings with pictures and everything but unfortunately, my iphone froze and I’m in the process of completely rebooting.  However, I can still take you through the steps just without pictures. Sorry guys! This is the EASY WAY WITHOUT A COMPUTER!!!!

The system strings are the “Slide to Unlock” , “Slide to Cancel”, “Slide to do whatever else.” With the help of iFile (click to see info) and a Cydia app, you can now change the strings to say whatever you want i.e. “Welcome KC!”

Things you will need:

Cydia, iFile, Slide to Unlock Killer, Winterboard

  1. First what you want to do is go into cydia and install iFile.
  2. After installing that, add new source (http://cydia.touch-mania.com)
  3. Then search for “Slide to Unlock Killer” and install that
  4. Next, go back to your homescreen and click on iFile. Go into settings and turn on Hidden Files. Next to the very beginning of the folders and follow this: Var/Stash/Themes/EntriegelKiller
  5. Once you’ve done this, choose your language (Most of you will click on “En”) Follow this after EntriegelKiller: Folders/Springboard/En.lproj/Springboard Strings
  6. Once the page with text shows up this is where you will change your strings. You can kind of read through them to understand which ones are which. I do remember that the second one about user_lock or something is the “Slide to Unlock”
  7. To edit these, click on edit in the top left and put your cursor in between the ” ” to the right of the strings you want to change.
  8. After typing your text, delelte any spaces between the ” ” i.e “Welcome KC!       “<<<–you would make it look like “Welcome KC!”
  9. After you’ve changed all the strings that you want, click save.
  10. Go into winterboard and turn on Entriegel Killer and let it refresh and now your system strings should be changed.

Any questions or comments, leave in the comments section!

How to Make a Custom Lockscreen for your iPhone or iPod Touch!

By Nathan Chancellor 3.0 Firmware, iPhone, iPod Touch, Jailbreaking, Themes, Tutorial, Wallpaper, Winterboard 30 Comments »

Today I will be showing you how to go from this:

Default Lockscreen

To this

Customized Lockscreen

Requirements:

1. Jailbroken iPod/iPhone
2. WinterBoard from Cydia
3. OpenSSH from Cydia
4. iGlassSol from Cydia for the sliders
5. (Optional) iFile from Cydia
6. An SSH client such as CyberDuck or WinSCP

Process:

1. Connect your iPod/iPhone to your computer. Go into Settings > Wi-Fi and select your Wi-Fi network. Copy your IP address. You will use it later.

Wi-Fi Settings Screen

IP Address!

2. Open your standard SSH client. Type in your IP Address for the hostname, “root” for the username and “alpine” for the password.

WinSCP start up

3. Hit Login.

4a. Create a folder on the desktop called Lockscreen. In that make an folder called Bundles. Inside that create another folder called com.apple.TelephonyUI.

4b. Inside Lockscreen create folder named UIImages.

5. Naviagte from /private/var/root to /private/var/stash/Themes/iGlassSol/Folders/TelephonyUI.framework/. Copy these files: bottombarknobgray.png, bottombarknobgreen.png, bottombarknobred.png. These are your sliders for unlocking, answering and turning off. Download them in the “com.apple.TelephonyUI” folder.

6. To get the clearness around the slider download this file and put it in the “com.apple.TelephonyUI” folder and download this file and put it in UIImages.

7. For a custom lockscreen background put a 320 x 480 PNG file in the Lockscreen folder and name it LockBackground.png.

8. (Optional) If you don’t want the slider text to show then copy this text:

”
“AWAY_LOCK_LABEL” = “”;
“POWER_DOWN_LOCK_LABEL” = “”;
“SETTING_LANGUAGE” = “”;
“SLIDE_TO_ANSWER” = “”;
“SLIDE_TO_CANCEL” = “Don’t slide the slider”;
“SMS_LOCK_LABEL” = “”;
“SYNC_IN_PROGRESS” = “Syncing… Unlock To Cancel”;
”

Put that text into a file and name it “SpringBoard.strings”. Create a folder inside the “Bundles” folder of the Lockscreen folder and name it “com.apple.springboard”. Then inside that folder create another one called “en.lproj”. Place the “StringBoard.strings” file in “en.lproj” folder.

8. Upload your Lockscreen folder into your Themes folder on your iPod/iPhone.

9. Go into WinterBoard and select the Lockscreen. And let it respring and you are done!

How to make you iPhone battery last for days

By gamesrule_0 How to, iPhone, iPod Touch 4 Comments »

I was browsing digg and found this story.

1. Keep it cool
Seriously. Don’t put your phone in the sun. Don’t leave it in a hot pocket. Battery life is lowered by heat and you should store your iPhone in temperatures less than 35 degrees centigrade – below 95F. As close to room temperature as possible is best for use.

2. Don’t use power-sucking apps you don’t need to
Minimise your app use, especially if it’s a game, stuff that sucks data (hello, Facebook) or uses GPS. Not only does some of the fun stuff suck power, it can also stop the auto-lock coming on.

3. Turn off 3G
So there we were, in our field, with little data coverage (thanks O2). So what did we do? Turn off data, that’s what. If you haven’t got it, there’s no point in wasting juice looking for it. Settings > General > Network and slide Enable 3G to Off.

4. No to EQ
Who’d have thunk, but equalising your iPod playback can drain your battery pack. Settings > iPod > EQ is where to turn it off.

5. Don’t fetch
Set the common apps to only fetch data when you want them to. Set Mail, Contacts and Calendars to only fetch data Manually. BE WARNED – if you have MobileMe, it’s dangerous to set the auto-check to Manual, since the much-vaunted Find My iPhone won’t work.

6. Don’t make long calls
Or don’t make any calls. Sounds like the stupid filler tip, but if you do make calls (and you probably do, as that’s almost certainly what you’re conserving battery for), just keep ‘em short.

7. Lock it up
iPhone not in use? Make sure you lock the screen and set the auto-lock to a minute in case you leave it unlocked.

8. Don’t use the GPS
Minimise use of it (such as in Maps or turn-by-turn sat-nav) and disable it: Settings > General > Location Services. If you’re lost, ignore this advice.

9. Turn it off when you don’t need it
Sleeping? With all your mates anyway? Then turn your phone off. Bit pointless if it’s for 10 minutes, but if it’s hours, it will add up.

10. Disable Wi-Fi
Nowhere near a wireless network? Go to Settings and slide Wi-Fi- to off. However, if you are going to be doing a fair amount of data browsing and you are near a wireless network, it will be better for your battery to use this than the thirsty cellular signal.

11. Turn off Bluetooth
Likewise, make sure Bluetooth is off. And keep it there unless you use accessories: Settings > General > Bluetooth and slide Bluetooth to Off.

12. Push off
Not many apps use push notifications, but in the future this will have more of an effect on your iPhone’s battery life as more start to. Settings > Notifications and slide Notifications to Off – only visible if you have relevant apps installed. Apple says this won’t stop the apps receiving data when the app is actually open though, so be careful, unless you’ve disabled data in other ways. Equally you need to turn off push mail (MobileMe, Microsoft Exchange). Go to Settings Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Fetch New Data and slide Push to Off.

13. Turn it down
Refrain from employing the speaker for music playback and turn down the volume – louder playback can make a difference, even with the headphones. Set the phone to silent on the side.

14. Dim your screen
Turn off auto-brightness and whack the brightness down as low as possible. Especially effective for many of us, as it’s the supreme brightness that’s one of the things that makes the iPhone screen look terrific, so it’s usually very bright as a default.

15. Go airplane
If you’ve got very little coverage, you can’t make calls anyway. If you’re going to be in a coverage lowspot for a little while, turn on Airplane Mode. It makes a serious difference, since your handset won’t be continuously searching for a network signal. This is one of the biggest drains of battery life on any handset.

I am sure most of these will work for the iPod Touch also.
