Is tethering still possible on non-jailbroken updated iPhones?

Yes and no.

My brother was able to tetherhack his but i wasn't and a lot of people are getting the same problem.

The only way to have the tether hack working on a non jb phone is when you update it have it turned on. If not then that it not going to work.

Not being able to tether would bite dick. That's like 90% of the benefit of jailbreaking.

So do you think I should try it with one of the 9000+ guides on the internet and if it doesn't work just break down and jailbreak?

Going on vacation next month and Lol @ me living without internet for 6 whole days.

The goal should be having the phone that functions best for you, not having the newest firmware.

I'm traveling to Europe in a week and want to jailbreak/unlock my iphone 3gs 3.1.2. I searched this thread there was a post at the beginning of the month saying it was not yet possible, I'm just wondering if that is still the case?

Thanks

I assume it's part of the High-Tech Rave Up theme since that is what the lock-screen theme is, even though User Lock Background is above HTRU in Winterboard.

Fixed! Went to SBSettings and found that LockInfo was on, so I checked that to off and now it has my background.

iphone camera = language translator

Pretty sweet app that allows you to take a picture of foreign text (menu in another country, street sign, airport instructions, etc) and translate it from foreign language into English.

I actually know the guy who wrote it so throw a digg his way if you have an account

Successfully jailbroke today using Blackra1n and installed Cydia and PDAnet. I'm still using the latest version of the firmware. I jailbroke on my PC and use PDAnet on my Mac.

Was pretty easy!

Is there consensus as to which IM app is best? I'm assuming any decent one will handle AIM, MSN, Yahoo, etc., but there seem to be quite a few options — what do y'all use?

I Jailbroke my 3GS with redsn0w on my Mac, but now that Blackra1n is the only option if I want to upgrade the firmware I'm trying to decide whether to bother. I have Windows (via Fusion) — any reason not to go ahead and update/rejailbreak? Any reason to bother?

(Note: I am using the tethering hack, in case that matters.)

so my 3g touch screen stopped working 2 weeks ago. before paying $100 to get the hardware replaced, i first tried reformatting my phone, unaware of the new firmware etc. naturally that did nothing, so i paid the $100, got the screen working again, jailbroke using pwnage, but theres still no unlocking solution, correct? ive been scouring the webs, i tried the baseband downgrader, but i have the wrong bootloader version or whatever.

That's quite a nice idea.

Still debating whether I JB my phone as there is no tethering hack out without jb it.

I suppose you could use it to keep games or other slower loading apps going but most people I know use it so they can keep non ipod music playing.

Help!!

My iPhone turned off while it was sitting on my table and won't turn back on. It had about 1/2 battery left, I plugged it in and still nothing.

What do I do?!!?

Also, when I plug into my computer it says "iTunes could not connect to the iPhone "Adam's Phone" because an invalid response was received from the device."
