Cracked iPhone? [Singapore]

Hello everyone!

Recently, when I was in a hurry, I dropped my iPhone, causing a big crack on it.

ouch.

We spend $50 on original cases and screen protectors from the Apple retail shops. But don't expect the best quality.

Should your phone get a crack, please note that your warranty will now be void, until you pay for a new one, S$350 for a 32GB iPhone 3GS.

They claim that a brand new iPhone will be given. I was using a new bootrom model previously, and the iPhone I got was a new bootrom model. It is given in a separate box, with just an iPhone inside. IMO, it is a refurbished one that you pay S$350 for.

The Singtel service center is at Exeter Road, it is called Hello@Comcentre. It has almost no queue. I went at 8pm.
For further inquiries, dial 1688. Ask all the questions you have, take all the time you have in the world.

Alternatively, if you have the time and are willing to take the risk of getting outsiders to play with your S$1000 iPhone, you could search on random forums like hardwarezone where there are plenty of people offering iPhone/iPod touch servicing at a cheaper price.

It's July, here comes the iPhone 4, in Singapore!

It's the 1st day of July and the last day of my common tests! Yes yes the iPhone 4 will be released here in Singapore in July.

Well, that's what Steve Jobs said! It all boils down to the telcos (Singtel, Starhub & M1), when they would officially put it out on their stores! My guess, is that they are all plotting to release it on the same day, together!

Chatter aside, remember to 'Register Your Interest' with your providers today!

iPhone 4 in Singapore!

If you're from Singtel, register your interest HERE.
If you're from Starhub, HERE.
Or M1, HERE.

iPhone3GS on iOS4 Overheating..

These few days on iOS4 Jailbroken with Sn0wbreeze, I have come to realize my 3GS is rather warm all the time... not sure why when i have only Mobilephone and iPod in the Multitasking dock.. Only just now my Phone was so hot that i could see condensation between my phone and the casing.. it almost freaked me out..

Word of advice, do not update to iOS4 till it settles down. I believe Apple would be coming out with a new iOS4 soon, ie. iOS4.01? To address these issues like the iPhone 3G being very sluggish on iOS4 even though multitasking is not available.

EDIT: I uninstalled iMovie app from my phone and everything back to normal, i think.. gonna observe my phone for a little longer..

iMovie on iPhone 3GS, My 3GS :D

Hey yes everyone knows iMovie is only avaiable to the iPhone 4. But hey! I got it on my iPhone 3GS! I didnt use videos but i just tested with some images from my library... I just took me less than 30mins to come up with this video!

Some of the images were taken with my 3GS and some are not.... Those taken with my 3GS are the clearer images... XD Imagine what an iPhone 4 could do!

It's pretty difficult to edit the movies cause I thought that the iPhone screen is too small.. But what the hack, it does look cool!

Watch it here!

OpenSSH and Sbsettingtoggles

Note: Jailbreak for 3GS sticky taken off, you can still find it in The Jailbreak Goodies categories.

Yes, if you were using it the past few days you would have noticed an error after afew minutes later. This is because of a bug with Sbsettingtoggle. As of today, Bigboss have released a fix version to this issue.

I have already tested it by rebooting, respringing and I still have a good connection via OpenSSH. Finally, i can theme my phone with ease. Using iFile was tedious... xD

EDIT: Theming my iPhone 3GS is almost complete!! YAY!! but there are some new images still unknown to me.. haiz..

Winterboard on iOS 4

Well Winterboard is finally working on iOS 4. A little warning before you install Winterboard and your themes, as iOS 4 did a lot of changes in the OS, i realized that there are a lot of changes in the UI, most of which are still the same but some are different and these difference are the result of Springboard crashes you'll experience if your are not careful.

As of now, I'm remodeling my personal theme folders and getting a few Springboard crashes.. Hopefully i'll be back to my old theme!

Here i managed to get back my SMS wallpaper. You can also see that I'm on iOS 4 with that Multitasking Dock, Jailbroken with Cydia there. xD
