A New Year with yellowsn0w: Unlock your iPhone 3G

The iPhone 3G Unlock has Arrived

Sitting in a freezing New York sublet still recovering from an even colder New Year’s Eve filled with long cab rides, empty promises and unattainable resolutions, I find myself reminiscing about the ball drop and people’s lips counting down to yellowsn0w, the first impactful statement of the New Year.

Your iPhone 3G is no longer locked to AT&T or it’s respective international counterparts, so ring in the new year with your carrier of choice. Details below.

As Always Thanks DevTeam!

Installous + iTunes: A Cat and Mouse Story

“Being Able to Sync Hacked Apps Through iTunes Has Been Thwarted”

Notice that you are not able to sync your hacked apps through iTunes. You’re not the only one. It turns out the Apple would not like you to be able to back up your hacked apps.

If you turn on the iTunes sync option, iTunes will proceed to erase your hacked apps. Keep the option set to OFF and sync your iPhone as usual. If you do lose your apps, just go to the Downloads Tab and reinstall them.

Until a workaround is discovered you can back up and restore your apps through AppBackup in Cydia.
