An app that lets the phone multitask?

Yes, it's called iPhone OS4

Better late than never.

With Backgrounder, iPhone's had full multitasking in all apps since 2008. I've used it since day 1 and it works perfectly, use it to run Spotify/pirate radio streams in the background. A crying shame Windows Phone 7 doesn't support multitasking, isn't it DD...


As for jailbreaking, if your phone's a 3G or early 3GS running firmware 3.1.2 or earlier then use the Dev Team's tools: redsn0w on Windows or PwnageTool on OSX.

If you've got a newer 3GS with the updated bootrom and/or running firmware 3.1.3, use the Spirit jailbreak released the other day.

I did the jail break this morning and it seems to have worked, is there any app that will let me download any type of file, for eaxmple if I want to download wavs or mp3's from the likes of rapidshare ect? I quite like the fact that I can now Bluetooth music to people..

I can concur that Angry Birds is stupidly addictive.

Of course, I think I mentioned it in my post on the previous page: Safari Download Plugin from Cydia. Adds a Save File To: option when clicking on links to downloadable filetypes, supports downloading from anywhere including all the upload sites.

Another handy one is Attachment Saver which lets you save/view any email attachment.

Use the above two in conjunction with iFile, which gives you full control over the entire filesystem as well as a fuckload of other features I've come to depend on like opening/making ZIP and RAR archives, emailing any file as an attachment, integrating with iBlueNova to send any file via bluetooth, editing any text file, downloading/uploading any file to/from a computer via WiFi etc... http://iphone.heinelt.eu/?Applications:iFile

All the above are paid apps (about a couple of quid each), if you're a monumental cheapskate or want to try before you buy then add the following sources to Cydia and grab cracked versions for free: http://www.sinfuliphonerepo.com and http://cydia.xsellize.com

And if you want to "try" an Apple App Store app before you "buy", grab install0us from Cydia, set http://apptrackr.org as the homepage and iTunes Sync to On. phR33 w4R3Z 4 j00!!!11 :gay:

Just playing with Spirit now.

I have to add Plants Vs Zombies to the addictive app list - sounds like a stupid game but is so bloody addictive

Done Angry Birds all levels all 3 stars!!

Also started listening to Audio books on the train - Ricky Gervais guide to..... series is fuckin classic comedy, Karl Pilkington is such a thick twat but srangely he is right in some of his odd theories! well worth the money
