FYI, backgrounder just updated and now has the option to turn off badges on stock programs. I am so happy about this now.

Additionally, have been reading the dev blog and sounds like it is close to ok to upgrade to 3.1 and re-JB on the 3G. Anyone tried yet?

I recently updated some apps from cydia and now my phone will not run in anything but safemode. I try and restart the springboard and it doesn't work. I power off and turn it back on and I get the "springboard has crashed" message, and the options to either restart or run in safe mode. Only safemode works.

Any suggestions?

waiting suuuucks.

i got a new laptop a couple weeks ago, and i guess i haven't plugged in my iphone since then.

so, i had to backup all the apps/music/contacts, which took for eeeever.

then, i start the update, and it's doing it again...WTFFF.

this is literally taking most of the afternoon. all i wanted to do is send a middle-finger picture to someone. ANYONE.

Just make sure data roaming is turned off and just use a wifi connection if you need to use your phone to connect to the internet, this way you'll avoid stupid charges.

Can anyone recommend a good voice recognition app? I'd mostly use it for text messaging and IM's while driving.

Vlingo didn't seem to work too well.

when you are in texting mode, there should be a little camera icon next to the bar in which you type in. hit it, its self explainable from there

Not sure how, but upgrading to 3.1 and getting MMS didn't screw up the non-jailbreak tethering hack. Pretty happy about that.

Can anyone MMS to another carrier? I can send/receive inside ATT fine, but cannot to Verizon, Sprint or Nextel.

MMS has been here in the UK for ages, don't know why use are so far behind. It's actually been set up through o2 for a while so no need for any sort of hack.

I'm still waiting on the tethering hack anyone got any news on that ?

I'm tired of the same thing happening in large areas of Tucson and New Hampshire, each of which I visit regularly. And of losing service along various interstates, too.

It's regional — but a national network shouldn't have local dead spots in populated areas in 2009, as far as I'm concerned.

heh, i was just in chicago for a wedding, and it was really weird - i almost always had full bars according to the iphone, but nothing worked. web pages wouldn't load, apps couldn't connect to the internet, etc. mail generally worked, and phone calls generally worked (though both were worse than where i live in the sf bay area), but safari and apps were either noticeably slower or wouldn't work at all. it was bad enough that i'm not sure i would have an iphone in chicago.

so yeah, i can totally understand some of the att hate now.

Don't think so. Just look at all the receipts they've sent you.

I moved my iTunes library and ended up deleting all my actual apps, but iTunes knew what they were. I just had to go download them again. The ones that cost money it said "you've already paid for it" and let me download them again.

It's why I don't delete email very often.

meh, if you actually use the app, you'll try and download it in the future and then you'll have it. look at it as a chance to do some spring cleaning.

how did you lose your apps on both your iphone and itunes?
