Talking How many of you have JB'd your iPhone?

I can't imagine having an iPhone anymore without Jailbreaking. What are your mods? Here's mine. Made my own wallpaper & icons. Well, not really "my" icons. I did however enhance them to my liking. Post up!

I did but took it off because it was draining the battery too fast.

I didn't know Jailbreaking the iPhone adds processes to drain the battery faster unless you install 3rd party apps that need a lot of processing power to run. As far as I know, Jailbreaking just gives us the ability to access the iPhones file system & make changes which I did through SSH.

No idea what it was but I didn't have many apps and SSH kept turning itself on although I turned it off anytime I noticed it. My phone would last a day, maybe two days with me barely using it.

Hmm... that's weird. OpenSSH should only start up after the iPhone detects a connection from your computer. Once you shut down the connection from your computer, the SSH connection should turn off automatically.

You mean the latest iPhone 3G? Yes. That's what I have. I also have the latest firmware 2.0.2. Just get the latest Pwnagetool for 2.0.2 & you're golden. Installer isn't the preferred 3rd party app portal anymore. Cydia seems to have replaced it & many users have felt it is more stable than Installer. WinterBoard has replaced SummerBoard but they are porting over the SummerBoard themes pretty quickly.

How did you do it? Is there any free software available or do you have to buy something?

We get video recording now via Cycorder. Here's the beta with no audio yet. The developer is coming out with an update within the next week or so with audio. The videos quality is pretty good for a camera phone. Here's a sample I made:

http://www.vimeo.com/1588349

I also have Intelliscreen on mine also. When on your lock screen, it has a feature called Intellidial. You can activate Intellidial by pushing the Menu button while on the lock screen. From there, it will take you to a coverflow of all your favorite contacts that & make a call from there. You won't have to unlock. Here's what it looks like.



Features:

View Calendar, Email, Text Messages, News, Sports, and Weather from your iPhone "Slide To Unlock" screen
Taskbar Icons for Missed Email, SMS, and Phone calls
Customizable Alert Reminders - Don't forget about a missed call, unread email, unread SMS, or repeating Calendar Alerts
Vibrate, Sound, or Flash Alerting with Alert Quiet Time
Smooth scrolling across each item to quickly glimpse at your data
Tap-To-Check Email when you view the unlock screen - no need to "Refresh" from Mail.app or wait 15 minutes
Go directly to the application of your choice with a "Swipe"
Precise International Weather (by Zip) provided by Weather Underground.com
News Feeds include Yahoo!, CNN, BBC Fox News, and Reuters
Add your own Custom RSS Feed
ESPN Sports Feeds include MLB, NFL, NBA, NHL, NCAA Men's Football and NCAA Women's Basketball
Customizing your IntelliScreen™ is easy! Choose which content you want to view and where
Customize your Layout by pinching and pulling content
Mail and Text Messages can be shown only if new items are available
Skinnable - Customize to the way you want IntelliScreen to look



MXTube is also a great app that allows the user to download Youtube videos at full quality & save them to the iPhone. I never use the Youtube app anymore that came with the iPhone.

These are just a few of many apps that Apple will never allow in the Appstore.

Your background and icons look sick though man very nice. wish i was a computer wiz and could do that kinda stuff.
