UPDATE : PDANet sneaked in an update ( v1.40) which restricts the functionality unless you fork out $29.99!
Temporary Solution :

Download PDANet 1.33
SSH that into your phone and drop pdanet1.33.deb into /var/root/
Using MobileTerminal (get if off Cydia if you have to) type in “su,” then type in your password, which is “alpine” by default. Then type in the command dpkg -i /var/root/pdanet1.33.deb. Wait for it to get done.
Then restart/respring your iPhone

I have been pretty busy lately – final semester of Masters and you can imagine! I finally took …

3G Tether, Modem »

[20 Sep 2008 | 3 Comments | ]

Test Environment :
iPhoneModem (Mac and iPhone applications – Both are required)
Macbook Pro , OS X Leopard 10.5.5
iPhone 2.1 (iPhone is now really Usable!)
Using Safari on my MBP as other apps need hacks to enable them.
ATT 3G / EDGE network (In Train (NJ-NYC) – Slight fluctuations, iPhoneModem very stable!)

We all know that ATT caps iPhone’s data capabilities at 1.4 Mbps but that is just enough for using it as a modem though all I can use is Safari for now. I am sure other applications can be used by configuring proxies …

iPhone 2.1 firmware released today (Friday, Sept 12) greatly enhances your overall iPhone expereince, very close to the pre 2.0 updates (last stable update was 1.1.4!). If you are a legit iPhone user, there is no point holding off since iPhone 2.1 is not easily jailbreakable yet. So, what are those amazing features 2.1 has brought? Absolutely not NEW but a VERY stable system altogether! A quick run down of my experiences so far :

App, Apps Crash, AppStore, Fix, iPhone 2.0, Tips »

[20 Aug 2008 | 21 Comments | ]

After using Pwnage I have restored my iPhone numerous times following the AppStore apps crash! Interestingly enough Unofficial Apps and Cracked apps work great, just that official AppStore applications continue to crash with minimal usage of Cydia and Installer. It proved to be a challenging task to combat this issue. The following solutions or quick fixes may help you get a headstart saving you a trip to the Apple / ATT store or panic attacks for that matter! I might add this too – Steve Jobs admits the issue is …
