    That pretty much sums it all. I've only had it for a couple hours and haven't been able to activate it cause Fido was closed. So I thought, I'd try and learn about some neat features before I start using it tomorrow. Was watching a few videos on youtube learning shit. Saw this one and couldn't figure out one thing, so I thought I'd ask. Was wondering about it before as well because my blackberry had this app called drive safely which read out the messages as they came if the app was on. So thought something like that for this phone would be neat.

    But, sorry to bother you so much man.

    You on a pc? First sync up your BB with outlook, then iTunes will sync outlook to your phone. I'm sure there's a similar process on macs.

    I'm having an issue with my iPhone since the update, anytime I try to open the photo album it just boots me back out to the home screen, I tried restarting the phone and also a hard reset but no luck, any insight?

    Can I unlock my phone for my trip to Asia, and then come home and just put the normal OS on and update it normally like before?

    Yes, assuming that your phone is currently unlockable (depends on model, firmware, baseband)

    Just to clarify this is only for A4 devices not A5 devices so iPad 2 and iPhone 4S does not have it yet.

    Sometimes poor reception

    I really wish there was timestamps on every text, not just the most recent. Would be easy to settle arguments this way lol

    It's automatic. If your recipient has iOS5, then it will be sent via iMessage. If they don't, they will get an SMS. Delivery priority is iMessage first, then SMS I believe.

    Another question, should I even bother jailbreaking with 5.0? With all the connectivity to apple services (eg iMessage, iCloud), seems like they can track your device status pretty easily no?

    Data via iMessage didn't get through, so it falls back to SMS. It's 2 completely different ways to deliver the text.

    Download BiteSMS from Cydia. It's like the normal messages app on steroids. One of the options is to show timestamps for each message. Also works great in conjunction with another app called iphonedelivery, which lets you know if an SMS was delivered (if the receiver's device supports it).

    If you prefer the normal messaging system and you're jailbroke you can also d/l MarkThatMessage


    and does anyone know the name of a working app that will hide the battery icon in the top right corner? If its a 'free' source link too?

    Any iphone 4 thats been upgraded (with stock firmware, through itunes) past 4.1 is not unlockable as the firmware has been updated. The only unlockable baseband for iphone 4 is 01.59.00 which required custom firmware or tinyumbrella in order to preserve.

    If jailbroken, download "Bolt" from cydia, removes battery icon, and a lighting bolt shows only when plugged in for charging.
