If you’re in need for iPhone 4 jailbreak after upgrading to the latest iOS 4.1, there’s good news for you. A new jailbreak called limera1n from Geohot has just being released ahead of iPhone Dev Team. This release however is reported to be slightly buggy as listed on their site.
Some known bugs are 3GS new bootrom is broken and Cydia icon will only be displayed when restarted after installing. From what we have seen with others, this is far from perfect so jailbreak at your own risk. Currently it is only offered for Windows, so linux and mac folks gotta wait for another update.
If you understand the risks involved and be the first to have cydia on iOS 4.1, head on to limera1n.com.

After the introduction of iOS 4, iPhone 3G users complained about slow performance after upgrading. Steve Jobs had purportedly responded by saying a fix was underway to solve these sluggish issues with the next iOS update.
During the big event few days back, Steve Jobs announced that the new iOS 4.1 update carries a lot of bug fixes for the iPhone 3G which we hope addresses the issue.
So has the iOS 4.1 fixed the slow issue? Gizmodo puts that to the test. Overall, it is faster than the previous iOS 4.0 especially when it comes to Maps.

If you’re using the iPhone 3G and have the iOS4 running on it right now, odds are you must be cursing the day you made the upgrade from Apple OS 3.
It’s no secret that iPhone 3Gs running iOS4 suffer from laggy performance and slow everything, not to mention suffering from poor battery life. Well it seems that your slow iPhone 3G days are numbered. Apparently Apple and Steve Jobs have received enough complaints from disgruntled iPhone 3G iOS4 users that they are now working on a fix.
The email below was sent to the man himself by an iPhone 3G owner that has had enough:
I’ve waited patiently through 4.0.1 and 4.0.2, looking for a fix that will make my phone work again. I’ve read the forums that advise me to jailbreak my phone or use some other method so I can downgrade back to a version of iPhone 3, however I’m not prepared to use a method that is not supported by Apple.
The email produced a trademark Jobs reply:
Software update coming soon.
Sent from my iPhone
Well, that settles it then, there will be an update to fix the problems plagueing iPhone 3G users running iOS4, but there’s no set date, so it could be next month or it could be next year. At least, iPhone 3G user are ensured that there will be a fix. Here’s hoping the wait won’t be too long.

When Skype 2.0 was announced, many were happy to see that Skype voice calls are allowed over 3G Network. Previously you’re only able to make calls via WiFi. However this voice call over 3G feature was expected to end in August with possibility of Skype offering paid subscription.
Now Skype 2.0 has been updated with the ability to handle VOIP running in the background with iOS4 multi tasking capabilities. It is also interesting to note that voice calls over 3G networks has been extended until end of 2010. After that a “small” monthly fee will be applicable if you wish to continue. No details on the “small” monthly fee yet but for now, enjoy Skype to Skype free calls while you can.
You can download Skype from the AppStore.

Developers who signed up for Apple’s iPhone Developers Program will be able to download the latest release of iOS 4. If you’re following with Apple’s iPhone 4 reception issues, you probably know that Apple is solving that with a software fix.
Engadget has a screenshot of a iPhone 4 with the latest update and they do notice some difference on the signal bars. Visually, the bars look bigger than normal with the 1-bar symbol being taller than before.
It is just released so we expect to hear more discoveries soon.

iOS4 now available for download

The iPhone 4 might still be months away from Malaysian shores but that doesn’t mean you can’t try out the brand spanking new OS that comes with it (albeit with some limitations depending on which iPhone you’re using)
Yes, ladies and gents, the iOS4 is now available for download complete with multitasking and folders. But before you begin downloading the new OS, you have to have the latest iTunes (ver9.2) installed as well.
While you’re waiting for the downloads to be completed here’s a here’s a 10 minute video guide on the iOS4 to get you familiarized with the new features and what not.
The video demo is running on an iPhone 3GS which gets to use almost all of the new features iOS4. But if you’re running the iPhone do note that you will not be getting multitasking and a few other things. So we’d advice those running on iPhone 3G not to upgrade for risk of making your phone slower.
Don’t say we didn’t warn you.
