Top 5 Yahoo Answers of the Weekend on iPhone

You know…sometimes reading news entries gets so boring. You read and read and then you find out that the huge amounts of new information are simply too much for you to comprehend and process. You simply forget what you’ve been reading some 20 minutes before.

I decided to feed you to some funny (maybe they are not, but I thought they are) questions-answers at Yahoo! Answers. I hope you know that you can learn great things by simply reading these Q-A at yahoo. But there is a problem: they are so multiple that you are not likely to read even daily questions for the end. So I do the work for you. I’ve made up top 5 most interesting and useful Q-A from Yahoo!

Here you are. Top 5 questions-answers of the weekend:

1.Q

What does it mean by an iPhone being “unlockable”?
Looking to buy an iPhone on eBay, and just about every destription on every listing says that the phone is “unlocked” or “unlockable”. Then it lists a firmware, something like 1.13. Just wondering what that means.

A. well unlockable means you can unlock it yourself if you want, to be used on any network that uses the technology, in the US that would be T-Mobile or AT&T!
unlocked means its already able to be used on any network without contracts!
1.1.3 firmware is simply the version of the phone
on a side note, ALL iPhones are unlockable!

2. Q

I’m gonna bring my unlocked iphone to the genius bar tomorrow. How do I make it a virgin again?
Yes man. so that I can bring it in for service.
I just bought it two days ago, unlocked it and now the bottom left side of the screen is loose. could u help me?
I tried looking for it in your site.. howardforums but i can’t find a solution.

A. connect your phone to iTunes with the provided USB cable, and hit restore. it will bring it back to stock settings and no trace of unlock or jailbreak left.

3. Q

Is it safe to buy iphones from the uk?
i saw this ad ion the “cracker” free classifieds online
it was a company called ” M limited” selling 16gb iphones for 230USD it just sounds to good to be true. so i emailed them and asked about payment method. first they said western union which i thought “forget it” because everyone uses western union to scam. i then asked them about paypal. they said they didnt have paypal available at the time.
then a couple days later , they email me saying that they can use paypal now.
do you think this is legit? should i just take a risk and try it anyways.its 230usd if i never try i will never know.
but im uneasy what if this company is a scam.
there website is down, and i asked them why it was. they said it was under maintenace thats way they were in classifieds.
anyone got any suggestions? shhould i try and do it? 230 for iphone..sounds soo good with paypal? they even gave me there paypal ID and said totell them when im sendingg the money.so they can organise the shipping.
please help

A. i would say atay well clear of them. They sound dodgy as hell! Plus you wouldn’t get a phone for that price in the uk so i’d say save your money!

4. Q

How big is your iphone bill each month?
i am thinking about getting an iphone and i was wondering if the bill is really expensive.

A. I have 900 anytime minutes, unlimited nights and weekends, unlimited data usage (internet, email, etc…), and 1500 txt messages. I never go over my minutes or text messages and my bill comes to $120.11 every month after all the random charges, taxes, and fees.
Go HERE to look at the different plans available. If you want more than 200 text messages, the next step up is 1500 which will cost an extra $20 to which ever plan you choose.
Whatever plan you go with, plan on your monthly bill costing an extra $20 after taxes, fees, and random charges.

5. Q.

Receiving text with picture?
I receive text messages that say “I sent you a multimedia message. You can view my message via the internet at viewmymessage.com using Msg ID xyz Password xyz”. How do I get it to stop this and just let me view them on my iphone?

A. contact your phone company
they can track where the messages area coming from
pursue from there
GOOD LUCK!

And one more Q-A. It is my all-time favorite. You know when I found this one I though my neighbors are going to call 911 because my laughter was perhaps heard in New Zealand:

Question

Iphone in microwave?
my friends told me that if you put your iphone in the microwave for 30 seconds it really improves your service so i put my iphone in the microwave and after like 4 or 5 seconds it started making sparks but i left it in for the full 30 seconds. now my phone is really hot and it doesnt work. how come my service isnt better??

Answer

I hope you’re kidding me. That fries the insides and destroys your phone. My friend all you have is a 400 dollar piece of circuit boards now worth 2.00 USD on the street.
P.S. don’t believe everything your buds tell you. research it first

Unlock iPhone: How To

Unlock iPhone: How To

The problem of using iPhone in countries which are not supposed to be the places to use one has been puzzling the brightest minds of the generation. It is a common knowledge that if you want to use iPhone where it is not supposed to work the only thing you can do is hack it.

I’ve spent hours browsing various forums and now I come up with a number of solutions. In fact there are different methods and it is you who device which one to use.

First of all here are a few terms you need to understand the subject properly:

Jailbreak – It is the method used to set the iPhone OS file system in read/write mode. You can install third party applications only on a “jailbroken” iPhone.
Activate - Before you can use any of iPhone’s features, you must activate iPhone by signing up for a service plan with the iPhone service carrier in your area and registering iPhone with the network.
Unlock – It’s a procedure used to make the iPhone work with any GSM Carrier and involves hacking the baseband on iPhone.

In some countries you have to do all 3 procedures to make the device work while in others jailbreak is quire enough.

In order to hack an iPhone you need a number of tools:

The opinions split here: some people reckon that ZiPhone is the best app to hack the device while the others are sure that there is nothing better than iPlus.

These two apps break iPhone differently. To my mind iPlus is preferable because it downgrades the bootloader to a fake blank version 3.9 (and you will be able to go back to version 4.6 later which will protect you from Apple firmware updates).

A lot of people believe that iPlus is the safest way to hack iPhone.

On the other hand ZiPhone has such an attractive used interface that you are extremely tempted to use this app (I don’t know about you, but I myself got really tempted). After all, ZiPhone seems to be an ideal application to hack iPod Touch.

However the inability to restore back 4.6 bootloader prompted me to use iPlus2.0b with the international payload. Though iPlus2.0b is command line driven, it did its work of breaking, activating and unlocking the iPhone with zero trouble.

Nevertheless, iPlus has a possibility to restore the bootloader back to 4.6 so I suppose it is morep referable to use this application. Moreover, it does its work without any visible difficulty or problems.

You can use the following instructions to hack your iPhone.

You can also skip the installation of 1.1.4 firmware. In order to do it you fill in the code: *3001#12345#*

If you don’t like the code interface you can use the app iLiberty+ (made by the developers of iPlus)

So at the end of my post I would like to give you a few links that might be useful for you. Please visit them and read some information on hacking iPhone before actually doing it:

3G iPhone: More Rumor

3G iPhone: More Rumor

More 3G iPhone Rumor

They say that Apple has ordered 10 Million 3G iPhones. To tell you the truth, I wouldn’t believe the source, but it is, of course, not the real point of this particular entry.

It is a common knowledge that Apple is heading for a 3G iPhone and it is also widely knows that this phone is very soon to arrive. It is not quite obvious when, but that it will is not under doubt. But yet there is at least one question. Which one?

Are people going to upgrade their current iPhones to new ones?

In fact, there are still certain areas where 3G support is disabled. It is obvious that to add 3G support is not enough for a great number of people to make them motivated to buy a new device. Of course, AT&T is doing its best to expand the 3G network support all over the country and it is now just a matter of time when the whole country is covered, but at the moment it is only available in a few selected markets in the USA.

I am sure that Apple is quite aware of the fact and the only things I would like to know is whether there is something else in the gadget that will attract the customers?

They say that Apple might apply OLED technology to the display thus make the phone thinner. But again, can this increase the motivation of the potential owners? To tell you the truth, I’m not motivated to buy a new iPhone based on the rumor which is here now. There’s a rumor that the new iPhone will have an additional camera, but for me that doesn’t heat up the demand at all. Of course, maybe after purchasing the device and trying this new feature I will change my mind, but right now I find it useless.

Are there any real advantages of 3G network? You know, if I find out that the speed is 10 times faster then the current Edge speed, I might consider a possibility of acquiring the new iPhone. But at the same time what I can say is that the idea of a thinner device really appalls me.

Another question that puzzled my mind is whether Apple is really planning to sell another 10 million iPhones with so many of the devices having been just sold. It seems to me that just about each third person now has an iPhone. Do they really think that these 1/3 of the people will want to upgrade their devices right after the purchase or those 2/3 will definitely want to buy an iPhone? To my mind the demand on iPhone cannot be that high!

And what do YOU think about all that?

Quicken for iPhone: Top 10 Options the Next iPhone Should Have

If you have no Wi-Fi on iPhone. Manual in three easy steps.

What is the difference between Wi-Fi and EDGE?

Wi-Fi
1 It is faster than EDGE, but on a certain territory (not far from another Wi-Fi appliance, PC for ex.). There are also Wi- Fi hot spots (special places where Wi-Fi service is available).
The strength of the signal you can see on the Wi-Fi icon

2 To find any network choose Settings > Wi-Fi

3 Many of the Wi-Fi hot spots are free of charge. Use Safari to sign up for service

EDGE
1 functions only in the local carrier’s network coverage in the area you live.
If it is on you can see the EDGE icon on the top of the screen.
Use roaming charges if you are out of your network.
2 While you are using EDGE you can’t receive incoming calls!

Now the difference is clear and you know that the problem is in the iPhone.

Symptom

The Wi-Fi icon is on but still you can’t surf the Internet.
You tap Settings > Wi-Fi … but nothing happens. No IP Address or Subnet Mask.
Your iPhone has nothing like Wi-Fi address.

Why it has happened?
Don’t get nervous! It might happened while the installation Wi-Fi address was not registered.
So the iPhone has no IP Address of its own.

Solution

Firstly
Try to find IP Address by taping Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. Than Settings > General > About find Wi-Fi Address. If there is an IP Address so receive my congratulations. If not see the chapter below.

Secondly

Reinstall software (in this case you will lose all your iTunes).
After instillation, adjust previous settings as they used to be before (mail, messages, Internet, favourites).
Now try again to find an IP Address Settings > General > About> Wi-Fi Address

Now I hope your problem is solved. If again not..Thirdly
It needs repairing. And in a special center Apple retail store or ask for technical support iPhone Service FAQ

I wish you all the best and never have any problems of this kind!
