Well after jailbreaking you've then got installer and cydia from which you can install many apps. Just browse through...

You can also 'SSH' the iPhone (google it for some guides) and gain access to it via ftp.
Then you can do more monkey stuff *cough*

lol you have an option to change the logo when pwning, you probably chose to allow it. Nothing major you can restore your iPhone again just be careful next time.

Your iPhone is now a pwndapple(pineapple)

Doesn't it just bring a tear to your eye <-- tearful face

 

[adamr]

ok, I can't search for anything under the installer app. It does nothing. Also if I wanted to uninstall the jailbreak thingy is it possible

OK,

Update: SwirlyMMS

Sending
I can send an MMS to a recipient on MTN.
I too am able to send an MMS to myself on Vodacom.

So sending with the settings I posted earlier is no problem

Receiving
Through SwirlyMMS app, I can retrieve and view my own MMS. This may be because the original image was on my phone to begin with Dunno. Going to try send an image, delete it then open the self sent mms and see f it displays.

Problem tho remains that the MMS messages (4 tests) from a user on MTN to me Vodacom say they are retrieved. But I cant view them.

In addition, i also can not find them using the Mobilefinder. I can locate the ~Media folder. Enter the Media Folder, but it contains no subfolder. ??

According to the web forums (Alt to this forum) the location of the images should be in ~/Media/MMSFiles

Well, maybe soon Ill be an expert on this topic??

Any guidance or help would be appreciated. Frustrating shooting in the dark like this.

Thanks
