personally i use an android 2.3 gaxlay ace,my sister has nokia 700 symbian belle,ya what you told is right but symbian is still behind in some area like browser still sucks,also apps are lesser and good apps will take some time to come over to symbian.but i like the oval icons,and the induvidual wallpaper for homescreen.multitasking also better than droid.

Today I got a refurb iPhone 3GS from the Apple Store that shipped from CA. It came with FW 3.1 > restored to 3.1.2 and used blackra1n to jailbreak with success. (Im assuming) All recently refurbished iPhone 3GS's SHOULD NOT have the new 359.3.2 iBoot. I can confirm my refurb did not as I'm now jailbroken again. Hope this is useful information.

where do you find refurbed iphones? can you buy them without buying an att plan? i'm writing from china, so i'm a bit confused about how the market works in the US. thanks

hey, lucasbrizzo... Do you have the link or the location where you purchased your refurbished "iPhone 3Gs". I can't find it anyone, all i can find are refurbished iPhones 3G. thanks for the help.

i heard you loyal mac customers, which is today i will announce that all iphone and ipod software will be open for developers. Go ahead and hack all you want. NO more worry about jailbreak and best of all, the app screening process will be done by programed systems rather than a bunch of losers manually. any more wishes ?

I think everyone needs to chill, of you already have an iPhone and it's jailbroken, you have nothing to worry about as you already have the older bootrom If you are looking to buy a new iPhone, then you have already been warned that the exploit will not work, hence, no jailbreak and no unlock. Not rocket science, of no iPhone joy. then stop bitching and get something else! ;-)

Umm, you have nothing to worry about UNTIL your current iPhone is lost, stolen, dropped and broken, or just somehow dies on its own (as some do). Whether you're replaced on warranty or your own money, in a short while the replacement phone will be unjailbreakable, and for many of those, that means fantastic functionality* we've come to enjoy will be lost forever (possibly). re: fantastic functionality - there are some jailbreak apps that make the iPhone so much sweeter - SBSettings alone is reason enough for me to jailbreak. Throw in iBlacklist, GV Mobile and PDANet and I'll never not jailbreak again.

To all of the complainers out there that think Apple owes you anything, get a life, or better yet trying thinking for once. No one is asking you to purchase the iPhone. Yes it is messed up that Apple is changing the bootrom but this is their perogative. So Apple should leave things the same just to keep you freeloaders who contribute nothing but want everything for free, the ability to jailbreak or unlock your phones. You are the most selfish group of people on the planet.

Everything that everyone jailbreaks their iPhone for Android phones can/could just about do if it had the amount of devs that Apple has for the iPhone. Anybody that knows code can dev for the Android OS, you can do what you please on the Android OS. No one had to wait for features to be added on the Android OS but us iPhone users had to wait years for simple features to be added and when we pay full price for our phones we still don't have the option to do as we please with them. Apple talks all this shit about MS and Windows and they pull the same stunts with the iPhone OS. So like my previous post said, I'm not worried but to say Apple doesn't owe it's iPhone customers anything is kinda false. T

it's not about getting stuff free. its about Apple being greedy and selfish.Some people are poor and cant afford the high rates that apple charges att,You dont think att is not going to get their money back on what they are paying apple. you must live in a box

When you think about it, the iPhone (parts and all) only cost about $200 bucks for Apple to make. Apple doesn't even need to advertise it to get sales, so Apple really is making about a 500% profit on it's customers.

Whats feeloading about it dick head? Apple still get paid don't they? Either people buy a pay as you go iphone then unlock it. Or they buy a contract phone and unlock it. Apple still get paid. Whats freeloading about it? Get a life prick.

I agree with you. Apple is doing what all other software developer's doing to protect their products. While Microsoft is their close competitor, Hackers are their worse enemies. If they did benefit already from the work of hackers, it is too much of an abuse to still say bad things against Apple. This is my opinion.

well I am concern, because I am still have an ipod (actually an Iphone) but still lock...sooo I am still waiting, and all the teams (dev, chronic, Geo, and IH8) aren't working with the lock just on the JB, so, no one is working on the Unlock.

No sé si hablas español, pero cual iPhone tienes y cuando lo compraste. Si es un 3G tal vez puedas lo "unlock." Baja una programa de Cydia que se llama "Fuzzyband" y si el 3G es uno de los primeros, esta program funcionará para "downgrade" el "baseband." Despues, puedes bajar "ultrasn0w" para el "unlock." Suerte!

if you are that worried then you shouldn't have jail-broken, its your own fault, not apples.

The Jailbreak is NOT Blocked!, The 24kpwn is blocked. This means its back to tethering if you want to Jailbreak.
Nathaniel
Nathaniel - October 13, 2009 at 11:13pm
A tethered jailbreak on an iPhone is absolutely useless. If your phone dies for any reason it won't restart. For all intensive purposes this equates to no jailbreak for most people. Besides the article says a "normal jailbreak" is not possible.
DNA
DNA - October 19, 2009 at 7:25am
Yes, for all intensive purposes that does equate to no Jailbreak for "most people", however its not hard to use a Palm or even create a device that can boot the iPhone back up. Regardless of what the article says, the Topic is still a little misleading. "Apple Blocks Jailbreak in New iPhone 3GS Units!" Furthermore, the 24kpwn lives. It just forgot to file a change of address with the dev-team lol

ehh... I'm not worried. There's always a work around and if they do or did succeed in stopping all jailbreaks, I have no prob with sticking with my 3G or getting an Android phone but I deffinitly would never consider another touchscreen Blackberry.

If apple finds a way to stop jailbreaking and unlocking forever, i wont like the iphone as much. Im with T-Moble, and i wont ever be switching to AT&T. My next phone would be the BlackBerry.
