AppStore, eBook, iPhone Developer »

[13 Oct 2008 | 3 Comments | ]

Well, we all know Erica Sadun and if you don’t – welcome to the world of iPhone adventures!

Erica’s iPhone cookbook is geared towards developers at all levels – be it a novice or a ‘I know it all’ guy! Erica’s mastery on this subject has bedazzled all of us in the pre-appstore days with some of her cool applications which ruled the iPhone turf for a while (SendSong, MakeitMine, VoiceRecorder…..).
Anyway, the basic idea behind this post is to introduce you to the world of iPhone Application development at a fraction …

UPDATE : PDANet sneaked in an update ( v1.40) which restricts the functionality unless you fork out $29.99!
Temporary Solution :

Download PDANet 1.33
SSH that into your phone and drop pdanet1.33.deb into /var/root/
Using MobileTerminal (get if off Cydia if you have to) type in “su,” then type in your password, which is “alpine” by default. Then type in the command dpkg -i /var/root/pdanet1.33.deb. Wait for it to get done.
Then restart/respring your iPhone

Test Environment :

Macbook Pro , OS X Leopard 10.5.5
iPhone 2.1 (iPhone is now really Usable!)
Using Safari on my MBP as other apps need hacks to enable them.
ATT 3G / EDGE network (In Train (NJ-NYC) – Slight fluctuations, iPhoneModem very stable!)

We all know that ATT caps iPhone’s data capabilities at 1.4 Mbps but that is just enough for using it as a modem though all I can use is Safari for now. I am sure other applications can be used by configuring proxies …

2.1, 3G, iPhone 2.0, iPhone 3G »

iPhone 2.1 firmware released today (Friday, Sept 12) greatly enhances your overall iPhone expereince, very close to the pre 2.0 updates (last stable update was 1.1.4!). If you are a legit iPhone user, there is no point holding off since iPhone 2.1 is not easily jailbreakable yet. So, what are those amazing features 2.1 has brought? Absolutely not NEW but a VERY stable system altogether! A quick run down of my experiences so far :
