Got a jailbroken iphone :)

Only problem, when I try to access the internet or Cydia I get the following msg:

"Could not activate cellular data network: you are not subscribed to cellular data service"
Do I have to change some setting somewhere?

Settings, General, Network, Cellular Data Settings, change APN to "internet"

try that

Takes 24 hours to register you on the iPhone apn, change your apn to "internet", tomorrow change it back to what it is now

Cool. The one with the remote or without? From the pictures they actually look exactly the same except for one that has a remote.

I have the one with the remote, the iPhone just warns that the dock wasn't made for the phone, and asks if you want to switch to airplane mode, everything works fine though, sync, audio and video interface and the remote

iRealSMS, worth it or not?
Click to expand...

it's got some really funky features, the best being the quick reply, like, when you're looking at the regular springboard, or while you're in any other app, an incoming sms will pop up in a small window, and in the window itself you can type a reply and send it without launching ireal sms

that's the only feature it has that is better than bitesms

also, numbers show up as links you can call direclty from ireal sms when you open the message individually, bitesms does not do this (after calling you can then add to contacts etc.)

bitesms can insert your gps location into an sms which irealsms can't do

forwarding and inserting contacts into sms's can be done with both, however, it's less complicated to do with ireal sms

the only bug is that the received sms's don't always get marked as read correctly, so your irealsms icon on the springboard shows a number (unread sms) for messages you've already read, this happens quite often if you use the conversation mode to read sms', if you use the inbox this is not an issue

i had bitesms for a while, but decided to switch to irealsms for the quick reply feature, haven't switched back, so on some level i must prefer ireal, but the sms not being marked read is a bit annoying....
 
Well it depends, do you like the current sms/text app? If not, then iRealSMS is defintely worth it.

I currently use iRealSMS, as I am not a huge fan of the apple sms/text app, because it has severe limitations.

With iRealSMS, you can forward messages, create templates and even use the app in landscape mode which is great

Nope, mine is working fine, the one thing that does irk me a bit, is when I use the quick reply function, the sms stays in my inbox as unread and also on my intelliscreen notifier, so I have to go into ireasms and re-read the message
 
Hey guys, I downloaded the cracked ipa of Hero of Sparta, but it doesn't want to install. WTF? It says that "You are not authorized to install this app on your iphone". I have plenty of other cracked apps installed, why is this one giving me problems? Any ideas would be much appreciated

yup... same happens sometimes when you read sms' in conversation mode...

here's an interesting tip, go to the regular iphone sms app, for some reason it shows a negative amount of sms unread

I just wish, they would make more custom icons for ireal, I have the coolest icon set on my phone, even swirly has its own custom set, except ireal, and its standing out like a sore thumb, so I chucked them all in folders (even the folders have custom icons!!!)
 
OMW this phone is absolutely brilliant....

Shazam - Awesome app
iFitness - Awesome worth every dollar
Flick Fishing - Best game I've played thus far.
Wurdle - Can't put the phone down due to this game :)

Amazing what these phones are offering, really unbelievable
