Things you will need:

Before you begin:
WARNING!: Do NOT upgrade to 2.2.1 if you want to have your iPhone 3G unlocked. Only 2.2 can be unlocked.)

Download and install iTunes. Download QuickPwn 2.2.5, and the correct iPhone firmware file for your iPhone, and Bootloaders if you have an iPhone 2G (1st Gen) and wish to unlock it.

Goto iPhone>Settings>General>About and make sure your iPhone 2G or 3G is at version 2.2.1. If it is at a lower or higher version then you will need to restore it to 2.2.1. See restoring 2.2.1 section.

Restore to 2.2.1:
1. Open iTunes
2. Connect your iPhone
3. Go to the Summary Tab for the phone. (Click on the iPhone in the device menu on the left side, then click on the Summary tab)
4. Hold the Shift button on your keyboard and click the Restore button on iTunes, then browse to your iPhone 2.2 firmware file. Make sure you select the correct file. 3G firmware files start with 'iPhone1,2_2.2.1...' and 2G firmware files start with 'iPhone1,1_2.2.1...'.
5. Click Open.

This will restore your iPhone to 2.2. After it is complete sync your iPhone, and restore previous settings when promted to set up as new phone or restore.

iPhone 3G Jailbreak:
1. Plug in the iPhone.

3. Click next.

Uncheck 'Add Installer'.
7. Click Next.

After the process is complete it will reboot and will be Jailbroken and you will have a Cydia icon on the SpringBoard. To unlock see: iPhone 3G Unlock and Adding a Repo to Cydia

iPhone 2G Jailbreak/Unlock:

3. Click next.
4. Click 'Browse' and locate the firmware file for your iPhone. It may be be found automatically if you updated your iPhone using iTunes.

After you are finished:
Open Cydia and let it update. Look at the sections tab (at the bottom of the screen) There are more repositories under the repositories sections which you can install. Each repository gives you different packages (apps/themes/tools/etc). If you want to install the most popular repo's and some useful tools I have made a script to do this with instruction on how to execute it. You can find it here or scroll down... it's the next post.

IMPORTANT!: DO NOT upgrade to newer versions of the firmware on the iphone. It will remove the Jailbreak and you will have to wait for the new version of QuickPwn to come out that supports Jailbreaking the new version, and Jailbreak it again. Anything installed through Cydia will need to be reinstalled. Check here for news: http://modmyi.com or http://www.quickpwn.com/

iPhone App Installer Script

I was bored so I updated my APT/Cydia app installer script.

It can be found here:
ipwn221.sh

Tools:
iPhoneBrowser

Instructions:
Pre-conditions: iPhone is Jailborked, there is some free space on it, auto-lock is set to never (Settings>General>Auto-Lock), iTunes is installed on ur pooter, iPhone charged and/or plugged in, WiFi is on and connected to the internet tubes.
1. Download ipwn221.sh
2. Install iPhoneBrowser.
3. If you are using iPhoneBrowser, open iTunes and connect your phone to the computer, then run iPhonebrowser.
4. Copy ipwn.sh to /tmp
5. Close everything.
6. Open Cydia on the iPhone, Click on the search tab, search for and install MobileTerminal.
7. Open MobileTerminal.
8. Type in 'su', press enter, type in 'alpine', press enter. (You may want to change the password using the 'passwd' command later.)
9. Type 'cd /tmp', press enter.
10. Type 'chmod a+x ipwn.sh', press enter.
11. Type './ipwn221.sh', press enter.

This will take some time. Once finished Springboard will be restarted. (It is recommended that you restart your iPhone once completed)

Once this process is complete be sure to turn off SSH in BossPrefs.

iPhone's suck

Really. They do. And I'm jealous I can't be douchebags like you iPhone owners. Because I always wanted to be the bag that a used douche goes in.

:p

Watch TV Online

Since TV Links went down, I've had difficulty finding some shows to watch "on the spot" - when I don't have the time to download a show. I found this website, pretty well organized, and they have a "disclaimer", so hopefully they won't get taken down.

Metabolic gene mutation in mice - they live 3 times as long, eat twice as much, weigh half as much, are 10 times as active, and of course, aggressive as f*ck. Yay, a new 'roid for muscle heads to abuse. Awesome.

My Photos - Good Res

Ok, forewarning - if you click on this link, your browser may crash. Because I was dumb and created a page with some of the photos I have taken, in thumbnail form, clickable... but idiotically, the "thumbnails" that get loaded are the full images, so even though they load small on the screen, your browser has to process the entire image. I found that it doesn't crash with IE (surprisingly), but Firefox may crash, hang, or take a really long time to load.

Wait, whats that?....

Soldier sir, you have something on your face.. Wait, IN your face.

You, sir, are a dumbass.

Wubi: Install Ubuntu linux without partitioning your drive.

There is a cool tool for installing Ubuntu linux without having to partion your hard drive. It's called Wubi, although it's in its beta phase it works great. Instead of repartitioning your existing drive, it creates drive image files on your C: drive and boot/runs off the images. There is no modification to the mbr, or system files besides an entry into the boot.ini file for an extra boot option. It is also uninstallable.

Wubi Site: http://www.wubi-installer.org/

Wubi for Ubuntu 7.10 can be found here. It is still in alpha phase of development but works fine. Pick the executable with the highest revision number. (Move the mouse over the file and it will show you the full filename in the status bar) Also when you install it, choose drive C:, last time I tried a different drive it did not work. If you want to try it, it may work for you and if it doesn't it wont hurt anything just uninstall and try again.

Buy MP3's Cheap... $1.00-$5.00 per album...

Here are a few sites like allofmp3 that sell cheap mp3's. You can buy a full album for $1.00-5.00 depending on the bitrate and how many songs there are. Everything is priced based on bitrate and total size. I use mp3sparks and don't have any problems. They offer 128-386kbps cbr and vbr, lossless, and other formats.
