UPDATED: As today, June 17, 2009: You can now update your iPhone OS 3.0 from your iTunes software. Just click “Check for Update” from iTunes and it will automatically download and update itself.

The new iPhone OS 3.0 was leaked out on torrent sites and I was able to download it. It’s called “iPhone1,2_3.0_7A341_Restore.ipsw” release. Note to 7A341 is the one you want. I couldn’t wait for another few days until the official released version. Oh well, what the heck, I wanna try out this new OS anyway.

I used iTunes 8.2 to do the update and it was successful installed on my iPhone 3G. This new OS features I’ve noticed includes:

• Voice Memos (able to record your voice)
• MMS (send photos, movie clips, … by messaging)
• Search iPhone (spotlight search)
• Cut, copy and paste
• Appz Store Redeem (enter code to redeem your iTunes Gift Card)
• Store setting (view your Account or Sign out)
• and more …

You can download: iPhone1,2_3.0_7A341_Restore.ipsw (605) it here. Remember: I’m not responsible for anything happened to your iPhone, download at your own risk. Good luck.

Note: Just few days, my web hosting just put through over 20GB bandwidth for this file. If you like my webhost, you can SIGN UP for one yourself too. Thanks for your support.

Apple just announced the new iPhone 3G “S“ will be released on June 19. It’s going to be crazy again with all the iPhone fans! For me, I guess I have to wait for Rogers Wireless (Canada) to get my hands on it. So, this new iPhone 3GS will have these new features compared to iPhone 3G:

• 2x faster
• Built-in Video Camera (3 megapixel, autofocus, auto white balance)
• Video Recording (30fps VGA)
• Voice Control
• Cut, Copy and Paste (finally)
• Compass
• Spotlight Search
• Messages
• Longer Battery Lifetime
• Faster Wireless technology
• Internet Tethering
• Water/Oil Resistance finish

And yet, the new iPhone OS 3.0 will be released two days earlier on June 17. I can’t wait to see what’s is this new OS about, and I can’t wait to see the new jailbrake going to happen or not.

After spending almost a month on playing this Mafia Wars on my iPhone and I’ve managed it to level 716 (screenshot above). Zynga development team released the new update 1.1 yesterday so that they can fix some of the bugs / glitchs / improvements to make the game more fun or whatever. Oh well, after I updated, the game is definitely somehow faster or it’s just my head. I see few new stuffs they’ve added and the game is just harder to level up for now.

Whatever, it’s just a game. So, enjoys your time with it. If you want to add me to your mafia family, my ID number is 7902 0356 22.

Zynga just released this little amazing game for iPhone and iPod Touch on April 5th. You can Download Mafia Wars for Free on iTunes. It’s like a massive online game for everyone and support EDGE, 3G and WIFI. I’ve played a few days and I’m currently on level 16. Add me to your Mafia friend list, my ID #:

In 3 more days, Apple will reveal the new OS 3.0 update for iPhone. I would love see what are the features will be included in OS 3.0. Well, I’m pretty sure my jailbroke iPhone is gonna be erased and replaced with this new updates. I hope they will include copy and paste feature, or Safari flash plugin browser support… So, stay up to date on March 17.

What would you do with your iPhone 3G? I’ve been using this iPhone 3G since it was first released from Rogers. I haven’t jailbroke it since then. Today I was thinking I’m gonna jailbreak and unlock it as well. The steps are pretty simple and straight forward.

OK. Before you do all these steps, you may have to backup your stuffs (contacts, photos, ringtones, …) I’ve just lost all of them now… DAMN IT, learned my lesson now.

1. First, you need to JAILBREAK it using this site TUTORIAL (windows user)
2. Second, to UNLOCK your iPhone by following these steps from this site TUTORIAL. (Cydia Installer)
3. Finally, enjoy your new unlocked iPhone

NOTE: the reason I unlock my iPhone is for this summer travel purposes.

It’s been a quite long time since I’ve got an iPhone 3G. I think it would be great that my site could surf on iPhone Safari without the messy interface coding. So guys, my site is now compatible with any iPhone Safari. Thanks to Wordpress plugin called “WPtouch” by Dale Mugford & Duane Storey.

I was playing around with my iPhone 3G last night before I went to bed, I found this “sick” SHOUTcast Radio appz for iPhone and the best thing is Free. So, I gave it a try and downloaded, I was amazed with this little appz that you can listen every radio all over the world. I loaded up the appz and in Stations tab, I saw several genres and I random selected Hip-hop, R&B, Pop… You know what I’ve found? a great vocal trance radio is called “DIGITALLY-IMPORTED” and I was listening to DJ Kewlaid called “Ice Blue Vocal Trance Mix (005)”.

Oh well, the cons site is that SHOUTcast does not support 3G network. It would be great if it does have 3G, I could listen to it everywhere I go with this device.
