Paul Frank “Julius & Friends” by Meebz

I’ve been getting a lot of requests for a Julius & Friends Winterboard Theme Update.

So far the next update will include support for the iPhone 3G Edge icon, Notes*, 32 Rotating Wallpapers and possibly a Dialer.

If there are any additional requests, leave a comment.

Downgrade Your iPhone 3G Baseband

pHEvilBoss has released a one click iPhone 3G baseband downgrade solution in Cydia

If you accidentally upgraded your iPhone 3G to firmware 2.2.1 through iTunes and lost your yellowsn0w unlock, you no longer have to be stuck with a featureless iPhone 3G.

Remember the time Lois died, so Superman flew around the world in the opposite direction of the earth’s natural spin and turned back time to save her? It’s kind of like that.

The 3G Baseband Downgrader reverses your iPhone 3G Firmware 2.2.1 Baseband update from 02.30.03 back to the yellowsn0w unlockable 02.28.00.

In Cydia, do a search for the “3G Baseband Downgrade” which is hosted by BigBoss (Sleepers.net).

Make sure your iPhone 3G has Bootloader 5.8. (If your iPhone was manufactured before September 2008, you have 5.8).

If it came with 2.2.1 out of the box, you may have Bootloader 5.9 or later, which can not yet be downgraded. You can also check using Minicom.

pH (Pedro Henrique Franceschi) released a version a week ago that required you to ssh into your iPhone and run a package through terminal.

Today the automated version was released in Cydia.

Celebrate Easter Weekend with Free Apps

It’s Good Friday, a time for fasting and penance. So for those practicing, this is a day of rewards and remembrance*.

For those not practicing, this is a day to give Installous a break. Seriously, their servers will continue to crash and they will continue to require more “donations.”

If you have an insatiable hunger for free apps after a long day of abstaining from eating meat, then get your fill below…

FantasyLens

Remember those dolls of animals with baby faces, those were creepy. This app is not, put your friends faces on random works of art.

BumpChat

This is a dating app. Meet people around you, get to know them, and quit peddling your availability on twitter.

ILoseWeight

Stand on your iPhone**. Track your weight and bmi.

DrunkDialNo

One less thing to worry about. Blocks you from contacting people you probably shouldn’t after a night of drinking. For some people this app should be mandatory.

Pret-a-Yoga

Girls in skintight, primary-colored outfits get in yoga positions.

TypeType SpeedTyper

A game that penalizes you for typing too fast. For others it might actually help improve your iPhone texting speed.

AppStore Limited Time Freebies (4/8/09)

Developers are always offering promotional downloads or in most cases redemptive ones.

If an app is complained about enough, a developer will offer it for free until their next update and promise to fix it. If an app is new to the market, the developer promotes it through a free limited time download so it can create buzz. It’s a never ending cycle that benefits some consumers and screws others.

So take part and download these free apps with a clear conscience.

Here is a list of free apps available for a limited time, beginning on April 8th. Hurry up and download. Don’t forget to check back often for updates.

TwitterPics

Sick of following people, follow their photos.

Splat!

Squish happy bugs, because well…they’re bugs.

Redo

Another todo list, but this one’s free.

iEggs

Take eggs back to their nest.

Pop it, twist it, turn it, squeeze it, spin it, flip it (just like that commercial)
…for old school sound effects.

Thumb Wars

If you’ve watched “Over the Top” with Sylvester Stallone, than you know this game has nothing to do with it…except maybe the training part. Training to be a better thumb war…er…warrior.

When you just can’t find something nice to say about someones kid…

Laser Tag

“This game does not actually fire a laser from your device”
(Actual Game Warning)
