This is a great tip for iPhone 3G and 3Gs owners out there!  This is how you can use your iPhone to get internet connection on the go! You may also use this little trick at your house if you do not have internet accessibility for some reason.

Anywho? lets get starting! I learned how to do this from a cool youtube video.

Steps include a download that you have to visit on your iPhone. Which will install a mobile configuration file.  Basically what this means is that your’e using the internet connection from your iPhone ‘FREE’ as a modem for your computer (desktop or laptop).

Charges from your carrier will apply. I also beilieve that tethering is not available right now for a reason!! so until then, lets just assume that you are not supposed to use tethering for your iPhone.  Be warned that you may use this at your own risk.

So please check and see what your carrier plan is, so that you don’t get stuck with a butt load of user charges.

With your Phone go to this website, to download the Mobileconfig file http://help.benm.at/help.php
When you get to this page just click the Mobileconfigs downloads button:

After you download the Mobileconfig file, the site will ask you where you live by country. Simply choose the country of your choice!

I chose USA, but choose whichever country you live in.  Provided that it is an available choice from the list on the website.  Once you do that you will see this screen!

Choose the carriers that are available. Right now only two are available ( At&t and T-Mobile)

Once you have installed the file. Go to Settings>General>Network>
Notice: that you have a new network settings named Internet Tethering

For Mac Users you have to setup a new network view the video below.  First connect your iPhone 3G or 3Gs to your computer.  Also for Windows users I noticed that you can just enable the Internet Tethering by going to Settings>General>Networks>Internet Tethering ON .  When you do this, the system will ask you if you want to connect via USB or Bluetooth.  I normally choose USB because my iPhone is connected to my machine by USB cord. 

I have a Mac and PC so watch this vid for a little break down on how to make a new network on your Mac for iPhone 3G tethering.

So I was doing some digital doodling last night and I was thinking to myself “I wonder if someone has made their iPhone into a mouse for their PC”… And of course before I could even finish that thought I see a link about some guy that tweaked his iPhone to connect to a server that allows his phone to act as a wireless mouse.

Sound unbelievable! Check it out for your self!

Okay I am seriously pissed off..But I knew it was coming. Apple has supposedly said that they are going to release the 16gigabyte iPhone soon and the 32 gigabyte iPod Touch. They will likey make it into stores within the next couple of days.

Both of these products have been rumored to be listed at the price of $499.

So for those of you that have said “I am not going to buy that phone until they put more memory in it” here is your chance. You have no excuse now not to buy it.

We all knew it was coming and I honestly did not expect Apple to release the larger memory iPhone this fast. But they did and so we will have to deal with it.

Why don’t they just put a 100GB hard drive it there already. I know that it is possible. I wonder what kind of memory the major players at Apple have in their iPhone and iPod’s. 100GB, 200Gb, “Who Knows”

UPDATE : This is a Older Version Hack

Ziphone 3.0 is here…install apps with the click of a button One Click Jailbreak / Unlock any sim carrier read more

Seriously Don’t Read This Post Anymore…Give it a quick skim then Go to Ziphone Post above this link!! Enjoy… iPhone Downloads

For those of you who have recently found yourself to be a proud owner of a beautiful and sleek iPhone or iTouch, this post is for you. I found a article from one of my favorite sites “Lifehacker.com“. If you have just recently purchased or received a iPhone or iTouch, this install will be a little different than those of you who have a older version of both products.

3rd party apps are a beautiful thing. But Apple has and will do everything in their power to stop you from making your iPhone into “your” iPhone. This is definitely understandable since after all it is their product. But since most of the world is not patient enough to wait for Apple to come around. Here are some ways around the wall of upgrades that will lock your iPhone into application purgatory.

NOTE: As we all know the world isn’t perfect and neither am I. So do not think that this is fool proof plan. Learn and read as much as possible before you continue with this process of hacking your iTouch and iPhone. I know all to well how fustrating these things can be so bare with me. Here are some tips you might find useful that I found in a Lifehacker.com comment thread.

• 1. Make sure you have the latest JAVA installed otherwise it won’t work
  2. In Windows, make sure you close iTunes AND all iTunes related processes (e.g., iTunesHelper, etc.) from the Task Manager
  3. Move your jailbreak folder to the root folder in Windows (e.g., C:\) and the desktop on the Mac (you may also have to rename your hard drive on the Mac temporarily to MacintoshHD)
  4. It may not work the first time you try. If not, restore and start over.
  5. Nothing bad is going to happen if you just remember you can always force restore and get back to the original firmware.If you still have problems with the jailbreak, visit iLounge or iPod Touch Fans Forum – there are plenty of people there who can help you work out any problems…

1st Thing to Do!

The first thing your going to want to do is find out what firmware your iPhone is running. This can be done by docking your iPhone and clicking on the summary tab to see what version that you are running.

You want to have the 1.1.1. Firmware because the software that you are going to need to use has a one click upgrade that makes it extremely easy to downgrade to the right version of firmware for your iPhone. After you have performed this tweak. If you have the 1.1.1 version go to http://Jailbreakme.com and click install AppSnapp.

If this sounds to risky take a look at this article from Lifehacker.com. Read more »
