It seems the owner of the Vietnam prototype iPhone 4G has succeeded in getting iPhone OS 4.0 running on the device, according to a new photo obtained by Engadget.
So far we have yet to see more pics of the operating system; however, if true, the prototype could reveal more information as new betas of OS 4.0 get seeded to developers.
Also, a lot more photos have been taken of the device. You can see them below...

I really dont like those round volume buttons... Apple could do better... We'll see when the actual iPhone 4G comes out.

From my close observation, the phone was set up in Vietnamese language. I wonder it was either jailbroken so it could be used Vietnamese Language Pack or the new iPhone OS 4.0 add Vietnamese one? Anyone can clarify this?

Don't you ever wonder why all the rest of the pictures have the same screen background as all the rest floating around these threads.
I could put together an image and claim it to be another prototype....You know what, i might just do it to prove a point!

Looks nice, I mean, the same profile and all, real or fake, this shape is a much better one (handling and all)
Some say that there may be an investigation... probably this time will be Vietnam War II or the beginning or WWIII LMFAO.

Look closely at the pictures.There are two pictures of it next to an iphone 3GS.One of the pictures the prototype says 32gb, the other it says 16gb....hmmmmmmm

They both look like they say 16GB to me. Anyway, I called this on my last post here about them installing 4.0. Maybe we'll see more pics soon

Ummmm yeah a 16 gig 3gs and a 32 gig 3gs. They changed but the 4.0 on the left remained the same!!!

kloquewerk - May 14, 2010 at 11:50pm
They used 2 different 3GS's? So? What does that prove? That this guy has more than one 3GS? i don't get what you're trying to say

Ohhh and there is two different backgrounds too. I wonder if those pictures were taken at different places?

It really does look great though. Very happy to see they didn't do anything wacky to it. I like the square edge, less likely to slip out of my hand like the bar of soap shape.
