I've had every iPhone that's come out and Jailbroke every 1 without any problems. Millions if people do it. Try using a website called xselize. Theres loads of info on there

loads of advantages for jailbreaking.for one you can get free apps through installous but i like the tinkering with the phone to make it easier to use.easiest app is sbsettings.enables u to swipe the screen and activate and deactivate things like 3g,wifi,bluetooth without going through different menus

I have had installous for ages but never got it working, it's just a blank page with a web addy bar at the top, just like a web browser, except typing something does nothing?

It has a November release date, but nothing confirmed yet. Apparently it has been delayed due to a few issues with it in development with the wifi. Apparently 24th is the next guess day of the update.

Unlocking and Jailbreaking mean 2 different things but you do have to have a jailbroken phone to be able to unlock it.

If memory serves me right then TomTom is quite a big file and downloading from these file hosting sites is pretty slow unless you pay for "premium" access which lets you download at higher speeds.

S1MATT I dont think there is an unlock out for 4.1 yet

Correct, I only downloaded small files but it took 10-15 mins, tomtom must be a huge file so it will take a while

To be fair most games like angry birds Halloween or something only took a few mins, I was surprised how quick it downloaded, and I forgot to add that was over 3G

I can't find iBluenova for my iPhone 4.

Any of you know where I can find it as I could really do with having useable bluetooth on this irritating piece of shit....

I take it iBluenova will send to other non-iPhone phones?

If it doesnt allow you to bluetooth other none iphone phones then what would be the point of it? every iphone since the 3G has been able to bluetooth other iphones.

Have you checked on installous for it?

Installous wont have it due to iBlueNova being a Cydia app and not from the App Store.

DazC you need to jailbreak your iPhone to get iBlueNova and yes it will send to non iPhones

Download the updated game from Installous? But I'm sure if you go to Cydia>Sections>Hackulo.us and install the MetaDataRemovr that does what your looking for

st3v3 I just checked and its gone from Cydia On Cydia f you go to Manage>Sources , click edit then add put this repository in http://cydia.xsellize.com/ you will find a version of it there

I can confirm that ibluenova is indeed on cydia if you do the above

I will try installing that metadataremovr thing

Yes I've checked Intallous and as I have never been able to send a file using an iPhone I didn't know if it was just iPhone to iPhone that iBluenova gave or a full blluetooth facility like every other phone on earth.

Done that ages ago.

This is why I was asking as I've looked several times and never found it on Cydia.

Thanks. Done that and it's now there.

It loads and runs but can't discover any devices and can't be discovered by other devices either.

I just tried it and I dont think it works on the iPhone 4 It worked fine when I had my 3GS. Might be the reason why its been pulled from Cydia.

Edit: Did some Googling and it doesnt work on iOS 4.1
