En el post de mañana continuaré con la serie de artículos dedicados a la presentación telemática de declaraciones, que tratará precisamente sobre las formas de realizar el pago telemático.

After 10 minutes I tried again, but the result was the same. The iPod locks up when restoring the backup, so there must be something in the backup that conflicts with the latest firmware.The upshot of this is that the only way I have found to get the 2.1 firmware working is to setup the iPod as a new device without restoring a backup, and let iTunes sync everything. That's running at the moment so I will post some screenshots of the new genius feature when it's done, then decide to stick with 2.1 and wait for a jailbreak, or drop back to a jailbroken 2.0.2.

Just last night I was writing a blog post using the wordpress for iPhone app like I'm using to type now and the battery went dead and then I recharge the iPhone and then the iPhone app crash bug hit me again.

The first time it happen all I did was download an app from the app store. So my fix is just to use iTunes to download apps and not the iPhone apps store. Now that is a big fail!

Well I'm not sure if this was an Apple iPhone problem or Wordpress but I just typed a lot more than this but now it's gone. Either way fail!

Apple just give us what we want on Tuesday at the Let's rock event: copy and paste, video recording, flash support and turn by turn gps with voice navagation.

Thanks!

Well let's hurry I got much to learn u people!!

Lets start with jailbreaking i personally have a 2.0 jailbreaked unlocked iphone 2G 8gb

Jailbreaking means free'ing it out of apple's forbidden fruit's

that means apple has forbidden most of the things u can do with an iphone and have fun

i know that they have App Store now but that sucks too!

because everything is so Damned pricey id rather Crack Them my self but i cant i know. =0

Well let's get started immediatley

Jailbreaking (and unlocking) : iphone 1.1.4

This Video is not mine im just posting it!

Soon i will have my own!

So, amidst fears that in upgrading to 2.02 I had missed the jailbreaking boat, I duly opened up Google which presented me with this really useful guide.  These are the instructions I followed, and it worked.  The only thing they were not clear on was the length of time it can take for restarts - so it does lead to a few spincter-twitching moments; however, I was spurred on by the (as yet untested for me) claims that even if it went horribly wrong, a simple restore via iTunes would sort it out.

Why would you want to jailbreak your phone?  With the inception of AppStore, third party applications are now available anyway (sometimes for a price), however, Apple are less keen on other applications making it onto their beloved platform.  Video recording, for instance - is something my iPhone can now do, thanks to an application called Cycorder.

The other thing that jailbreaking enables is customisation; now, there is a school of thought that points out - not unreasonably - that the iPhone environment was a rather attractive thing to behold, and thus shouldn't be tampered with.  And I agree with that, to a point.  But I resent being enforced not to, so I do actually quite like the ability to tamper with things; which as you can see from the screenshot are considerably tampered with.

In the past I used to spend many happy an hour designing themes for Geeklog, given the relative simplicity of iPhone themes I could be quite tempted to try to get into designing stuff again.  As it is so far I've restricted myself to hacking apart the work of others into something approximating what I would like - I've also been investigating how to achieve transparencies in PNG files, which I think could lead to intriguing results; I like the idea of making the buttons fairly blended in.

Other things I've amused myself with is installing an application called 'Categories' which allows you to create folders in which to put groups of applications; which has tidied up my 'Springboard' (the technical term for the iPhone menu system), I've installed pretty impressive NES and Gameboy Advance emulators, as well as a more advanced Camera program, and a Video recorder.  It's true to get the most out of these things you need to be comfortable using either SSH or WinSCP (for Microsoft-based people such as myself) to get full use out of them.

In an extension of theme type stuff, I've also just added a small weather 'widget' to the home screen, as well as changing things like the battery colour and changing the slider to a zip, using the 'Winterboard' application, and the language to say 'unzip' rather than 'slide- using the 'Customize' application (which has also enabled me to change my SMS alert tone to a light saber.. ah, t'was inevitable!).  So yes, a myriad of customisations and changes, many of which I will probably lose when the novelty wears off!

And then HE came in.  He is beautiful.  Must be nearly seven feet tall, but might as well be 20.  Slim, rugged good looks, soothing soft spoken voice and noticeably lacking in the abject pretension that I've grown accustomed to dealing with in my company.  Also, he's black, so if the stereotype holds...  Perhaps I'd never go back.  And again, he has children, (I assume a wife) and he's probably straight as a rule-- well, a yard stick.  None the less, the day get's a little brighter when he walks in the door.  He works for our in-house construction "company" and is, therefor, someone I deal with regularly. (Sidebar:  Hmmm.  Fantastical Engineers, Adorable Little Contractors and Beautiful Construction Workers!  I seem to like the rugged ones don't I?  Don't know what that's about...  Anyway!)

The first conversation I ever remember having with him was about his iPhone.  He had an iPod Nano attached to his shirt, and an iPhone in his pocket.  We discussed the fact that he doesn't put his music on his iPhone.  "Then what's the point," I wondered.  He told me how he'd dropped his first iPhone down an elevator shaft, and though he had paid so much money for it, and though they don't offer replacement plans for them he "had" to have another one.  And then he let me play with it.

Nice as it might be, there was no double entendre there. I played with his iPhone for a few minutes.  After that, I was hooked.  That very day I ran out, with my "new cell phone fund" and bought my very own 16G iPhone.  I couldn't wait to get it home and activate it and load it up and have my new functioning iPhone.  Activation was a piece of cake.  I had my phone service switched to the new phone in less than 10 minutes.  I love my iPhone.  The music on the other hand was a nightmare. I hate my iPhone.

I started to sync my music and it was dragging.  Taking several seconds for each song.  It loaded about 300 songs (I have over 3000) and it errored out.  I hate my iPhone.  I restarted it and it picked up where it left off.  This time it ws going faster (I love my iPhone) but it still was taking hours.  When I finally gave up to go to bed, I found that it still had about 800 songs to go.  I left it to finish and I went to bed. I hate my iPhone.

Out of my 300+ albums, my iTunes has located album art for all but about 12-15 of them.  I was looking forward to listening to my new iPhone, and enjoying the larger view of the album art and the "cover flow" feature.  Imagine my dismay when I picked up my phone the next morning and found that only the first 300 songs had album art and all the rest of the albums had the "no art" graphic of the music notes. I love my iPhone.  I hate my iPhone.

I had no time to deal with it, I had to go to work.  I would try again that evening.  That evening the exact same thing happened.  This time I was determined to babysit it!  I was awake until after 2:00 in the morning, only to find that the exact same scenario played out again.  I hate my iPhone.  So I did what any one would do.  I called in sick to work so I could fix it.  :) Any excuse not to go to work.  I love my iPhone!

I ended up having to uncheck all the music in my library and then recheck them a group at a time (I did alphabetically) and sync it and then resync it and then re-resync it, over and over again until I had all the music on my iPhone with the album art.  I hate my iPhone.  It took a lot of jumping through hoops to do it but once it was set up it was great and I loved my new iPhone. I was even rational enough to know that I was dealing with an Apple product and it was only a matter of time before something bigger and better (and cheaper) came out.  This was in April.  I didn't know then about the 3G model, but I knew it was only a matter of time...

So it came as no surprise when I heard about the "twice as fast for half the price" 16G iPhone 3G.  And then I found out about the 2.0 version of the software for my archaic iPhone.  It's new and exciting! Of course I had to load it up!

I did not know that this new software would wipe my iPhone clean and then take hours to load.  This was yet another overnight endeavor.  I hate my iPhone.  But when it was done all my music was there, and I had the Apps store!  I lay in bed for three hours that Saturday morning, surfing the apps store, and loading every free application I thought I might even be sort of interested in, I could always delete them later if I wanted to.  I love my iPhone.  Downloading software version 2.0 was the worst thing I've ever done with my iPhone.  It's just been one problem after another!  I hate my iPhone!

A month or two ago, there was an update to the software.  Version 2.0.2.  I went ahead and downloaded that because it must only be an improvement, right?  Now my updates won't download.  The Apps store tells me there are updates and right now I have this lovely little red circle with a white 5 in it hovering over the corner of my Apps Store button.  But if I try to install the updates it tells me that I've already "purchased" this application and that if I'm having trouble downloading the App, I should select "check for purchases" in iTunes.  I hate my iPhone.  When I follow these instructions I get an error message from iTunes telling me that some of my Applications couldn't load because there was an "unknown error".  I've gotten this message before, and the number of applications not loading properly is growing.  I hate my iPhone.

So last night, for the third or fourth time, I connected my iPhone to my computer to try and resolve this issue with iTunes.  For the second time, iTunes reflected the 10+G of music I have as "other".  I disconnected my iPhone from my computer and went into the iPod function.  "You have not loaded any music." it says. (I'm sure I'm paraphrasing.)  Bullshit I didn't load any music.  I don't have 12G of "other" on here.  So I had to restore my iPhone.  I hate my iPhone. I have had to "restore" my iPhone on three separate occasions, and the only good thing I can say is that the first two times my music reloaded with no issues.  (I love my iPhone?)

I started the restore process on my iPhone last night at around 5:30 p.m.  iTunes loaded about 300 songs and errored out.  I looked in iPod and the music was there but with no album art.  I restarted the sync and it picked up where it left off.  I hate my iPhone.  I went to bed at 12:30 a.m. and it was still syncing.  I hate my iPhone.  I got up at 7:00 this morning and looked at my computer.  No longer syncing.  I wasn't sure if it was done or not so I restarted the sync and it started loading music again.  It had over 800 of my over 3000 songs to load.  I walked away and started my morning routine.  When I left for work at 8:20 it had only loaded about 120 songs.  I had to manually stop it so I could leave.  I hate my iPhone.

Ironically, all the music it loaded in my second attempt last night, and my third attempt this morning does have album art.  I love my iPhone a little bit.  The first three hundred songs however, have no album art.  I'll have to uncheck those albums resync my phone, let it delete those albums and sync the last 700+ songs and then recheck those albums and resync it again!  If all goes well, it'll load all the remaining music and all the album art that goes with it.  If all does not go well, I may pull a Russell Crowe and throw my iPhone at the head of one of the "Geniuses".  I hate my iPhone.

For those of you keeping score at home, there are far more hates than there are loves.  But at $500.00, I better love the hell out of my iPhone.

The truth is, I love my iPhone.  I really love the concept of my iPhone.  And if and when they get all these bugs worked out, I will petition the state of California for a marriage license for me and my iPhone.  But until that happens, my iPhone is my bitch!  It complicates my life.  It's uncooperative.  It points and laughs at me.  And it tells me that I'll never be truely happy.

Come to think of it, I think I am my iPhone's bitch.

Download Pwnage 2.0.3.1

I have often heard that many people had problems with YouTube, after upgrading the firmware or something. But I never go into details - YouTube always worked good for me.

• Download this archive and extract it;
• Open through SSH-browser* folder: private/var/root/Library/Lockdown;
• And remove all files from the folder** (backup this files if need it - just in case);
• And now copy files from extracted downloaded archive (Lockdown);
• And restart the iPhone. Done!

An important explanation:

* SSH-browser are different, use these: for Mac OS X: muCommander or CyberDuck; for Windows: iPhone Manager, iPhone Browser, etc. I used muCommander.

** In the folder will be three files:

1. data_ark.plist;
2. device_private_key.pem;
3. device_public_key.pem

And perhaps a folder "pair_records" - if it is, REMOVE IT!

If your problem is solved, don't forget say thanks. ;) If not ask us, and we'd be happy to help you.

Nach der Vorstellung der 2.0 Software für das iPhone gerieten die zuvor hochgelobten Webapplikationen komplett in Vergessenheit. Zu Unrecht, denn es gibt fast genauso viele Webapps wie AppStore-Apps nämlich ca. 1000, darunter auch viele sehr nützliche. Meine Top 5 stelle ich einmal kurz vor:

Platz 1: mobile.sciphone, eine aufs iPhone angepasste Website mit über 5300 Wallpaper zum Speichern aufs Smartphone (Man speichert Fotos in Safari und Mail, indem man den Finger auf dem Bild gedrückt hält und im darauf erscheinenden Pop-Up Bild sichern drückt)

Platz 2: Hangman for iPhone, ein sehr schön aufgemachtes Wortratespiel mit cooler Galgengrafik(englische Wörter). Es gibt auch im AppStore solche Programme, die auch mit einem gewissen (ebenfalls englischem) offline-Wortschatz aufwarten können, wie z.B Hangman von Jamsoft(kostenlos) und auch kostenpflichtige Apps, wie das 0,79 Cent teure Hangman2 von bari.cc(welches auch sehr cool daherkommt), aber diese Webapp ist zur Zeit vom Design her das beste kostenlose Hangman für´s iPhone.

Platz 3: aircast.eu ist eigentlich keine von Apple vorgestellte Webapp sondern ein eigenständiger Online-Service auf das iPhone angepasst. Dort lassen sich verchiedenste Sendungen/Podcast von TV- und Radiosendern wie ProSieben/Sat1 aber auch Podcasts wie die (genialen!!) Folge von Bits und so und dem iPhoneBlog.de-Podcast per Streaming im Safari auf dem iPhone/iPod touch anhören bzw. ansehen.

Platz 4: 3D TicTacToe, denn dieses Spiel fordert einen, nicht so wie das klassische "unter-der-Schulbank"-Spiel, welches praktisch nur Glück forderte. Doch 3DTicTacToe hat 3 klassische Spielbretter übereinander und Punkte können auch über diese 3 Bretter hinaus erzielt werden,also auch diagonal von der oberen linken Ecke des 1.Brettes zur untersten rechten. Das eröffnet eine ganz neue Spieledimension und man muss richtig aufpassen, denn ein kleiner Fehler kan zur Niederlage führen.

Platz 5: iSudoku, ich weiß, dass viele iPhoneUser dieses Spiel nicht mehr sehen können, weil man im AppStore, wenn man nach Sudoku sucht bereits 29 Ergebnisse präsentiert bekommt. Doch all diese Applikationen sind kostenpflichtig und sie werden gekauft, obwohl man im Web auch kostenlose Varianten findet wie iSudoku, deshalb mal drüber nachdenken.(Ich hab mir auch ein Sudoku gekauft, wegen der Grafik und weil ich einen iPod touch habe, welcher nicht dauerhaft online ist^^)

Danke fürs Lesen!!

ALERT - WE'VE MOVED TO RAZORIANFLY.COM

[Update - 02.09.08] - (14.26pm GMT)

It seems Bridger has gone one step further. In an attempt to get people interested in Lumen's new revised UI, he is now including it within the free version of the application, Lumen Lite! [App Store].

[Update - 02.09.08] - (12.27pm GMT)

"Thanks for the coverage! Your review is great.
It is always cool to hear from someone who enjoys playing Lumen.

I have to give credit where it is due though. Adam Betts was the artist who redesigned the interface. To be honest I didn't even give him any guidelines on what needed changing on the interface. He completely came up with everything himself. He spotted many UI flaws that Lumen had and fixed them without any instruction from me. He also was great about communicating his progress, delivering very on time, and charged a very reasonable price. I would definitely recommend him to anyone."

Thank You,
Bridger Maxwell

Original Article:
Puzzling and addictive, Lumen [App Store] designed by Bridger Maxwell forces you to use that brain of yours, once again. Lumen recently got a huge update in the form of version 2.0. This offers a new gorgeous interface (much more polished) as well as quick control options for easier game play. Lumen 2.0 is a charged update for everyone, including people who owned version 1.0 of the game.

The Objective
The objective of Lumen is to light up coloured checkpoints by firing lasers through them. The thing is, sometimes the lasers are not the right colours for the checkpoints and therefore won't pass through. Also, checkpoints may be placed in highly difficult places, and therefore you must re-direct the lasers in order to pass them through the checkpoints successfully.

Five Steps to Understanding Lumen
Lumen consists of five objects which you need to control, in order to successfully complete the game:

The Emitter
This is the object which emits the original laser. There may only be ONE of these on the board at a time. Also new with Lumen 2.0, you can now tap any piece on the board to change it's colour to either Red, Green or Blue. An emitter can only be placed on an outer wall of the current board.

The Filter
This object changes the original colour of the laser. Once the colour of your laser has been changed, it cannot be changed back, so choose carefully. Also new with Lumen 2.0, you can now tap any piece on the board to change it's colour to either Red, Green or Blue.

Mirrors
Tap anywhere on the board to place a mirror down, or drag one from your inventory (found at the bottom). Mirrors have four directions and you can choose the direction of your mirror, by tapping it.

Checkpoints
Pass your laser through all the checkpoints to win. Sometimes you may have to change the colour of the original laser to pass through the checkpoints successfully.

Obstacles
Metal blocks can disrupt the path of your laser, stopping you from completing the game. Wangle your lasers around these to complete the level.

More Levels?
If your bored with the 60 or so puzzles that come pre-installed with Lumen, no worries - Just go online and you'll be subject to over 1,200 user-submitted puzzles, just waiting to be solved by you! - Suffice to say, the levels get harder as you progress.

Price
If you wish to try Lumen before dropping the £2.39 ($3.99), you can now do so by downloading 'Lumen Lite' [App Store]. Lumen Lite now also features the new revised UI, as well as a limited selection of puzzles. At £2.39 ($3.99), Lumen is visually stunning, and addictive enough to open it up for a second helping. Lumen 2.0 is a charged update for everyone, including people who owned version 1.0 of the game.

Overall
Lumen 1.0 proved the concept. Lumen 2.0 brought it to life. With it's visually strong user interface, great game play and a user-created library of over 1800 puzzles to choose from, Lumen is a puzzler to be reckoned with.

Rating: 9/10 (Highly Recommended)

Bueno, ps estas son 3 guias de uso de winpwn, una para cada modo (basico, experto y quickpwn)

Sorry por la calidad de las capturas de pantalla realmente no se que paso

Aqui dejare los links de las guias, una vez que las haya terminado...

Por lo mientras unas soluciones a los problemas mas comunes y la descripcion de cada uno de los modos.

Modo Basico - Es el modo facil y usa las configuraciones estandar. Te preguntara cosas y elimina el hacer dificiles desiciones. Este requiere restaurar. Construiras un firmware personalizado como parte del proceso.

Modo Experto - Es como el modo basico, pero te da mas control sobre el proceso. Ya que es modo experto, se espera que sepas lo que haces. Solo cubrire los puntos mas basicos en esta guia, no te dare una guia completa, si ers que la necesitas, entonces no deberias estar usando este modo.

Quickpwn -Este modo te deja Pwnear tu dispositivo sin tener que restaura, es para aquellos iPhones que ya esten desbloqueados y solo requieran un jailbreak; si de cualquier manera necesitas restaurar, mejor usa uno de los otros 2 metodos. 

Problemas mas comunes:
P) No hay imagenes personalizadas en linea.
R) Intentra de nuevo despues, los servidores pueden estar algo cargados, esto es temporal.

P) Ya cree mi firmware personalizado y no lo encuentro, donde esta? 
R) Puedes buscar por .ipsw en la busqueda de windows, quizas esta en My documents, empieza con custom.

P) Winpwn crashea cuendo estoy creando mi firmware personalizado (solo se cierra) y no crea nada.
R) Sigue la guia en modo experto y eleva el tamaño de tu particion root hasta 700mb.

P) Segui todos los pasos y ahora mi iPhone 3G no tiene servicio.
R) Probablemente seguiste "Activation" durante el proceso, Necesitas usar iTunes para activar tu 3G, Vuelve a hacer todo.

El metodo es el crear un firmware personalizado, y asi restaurar el iPod o iPhone

Los cambios en esta version

- Soporte Quickpwn para el FW 2.0/2.0.1/2.0.2
- Soporte para cambiar el tamaño de la particion de sistema
- Soporte de Installer

En unas horas posteare una guia

Wo man schon bei 2.1 ist, mit neuen Funktionen wird das Update nicht um sich schlagen, denn in der aktuellen Beta 4 ist der Notification-Dienst, der während der WWDC angekündigt wurde nicht mehr enthalten und die Gerüchte um Copy&Paste gehen auch zurück.

Wenn´s soweit ist, von mir schon mal: Fröhliches Updaten!!
