Tutorial (not really needed though)

Wow, that was easy. Can I transfer files to my ipod without the supershitty itunes now?
-
i believe so
i need to read up on how to customize the look, organize the apps into folders, etc.
i didn't do it to steal games or anything, i just want to do cool shit with it
-
Install Cydia and get sum free games. iPhone gaming is a ripoff.
-
i have cydia installed already, and winterboard
i also installed icy and rock as alternatives
I need some suggestions for app organization - what's the best folder app i can use to organize all my games and crap?
also, how do i use custom themes? do i just install them and run them through winterboard?
-
Thank you!
-
Why would I jailbreak? I think the current interface and iTunes are fine.
-
Basically to install some apps and tweaks that Apple will never approve. There's more to it than piracy, themes, and iTunes.
What kind of tweaks and apps? Thus far I haven't seen anything that makes jailbreaking seem worthwhile.

smh

yeah, i think i'm gonna have to restore my touch
whenever i power it off, the only thing that pops up when i turn it back on is the itunes/usb symbol, so i have to run the blackra1n program every time
if i can't figure out what's going on without having to restore, i probably just won't install it again, as restoring is a pain in the ass and takes forever
-
yeah, fuck this
-
That sucks 3rd gen is tethered, as of now. Glad I have a 2nd gen 8)
-
i took the 8GB 2G Touch I'd bought back, and got a new 32GB 3G Touch
-
yeah, i'll try it again later on with some other program
not being able to turn it off is kind of a dealbreaker

I love me some hackin', but I ended up getting rid of the jailbreak stuff on my iPhone. It made everything run slower, although things may be different now. The stuff I used the most were the custom themes and the video camera.
-
custom themes r ghey. nobody cares what your iphone looks like. free games baby.
-
I actually don't mind paying $2-3 for a game or app, and that's coming from someone that has "rented" dozens of PSP/DS games over the last few years. I will be happy if I can transfer files to my ipod without having to use a crippled excuse for software.
I loved my Creative Zen. I could just plug it in and open the file directory, or even easier with the software installed I could right click any media file and there was a convenient little option that read "Transfer to Zen Media Library" :'(. So easy and intuitive. With itunes there is none of that. Plus it you have to convert your files over to whatever their format is :piss2
-
Fuck it, I'm too rich to Jailbreak, still haven't seen anything even slightly interesting.
-
Custom themes would definitely slow your device if you're not using a 3GS or 3G touch (though there are some solutions, like BossPaper), but there are some good apps worth checking out that aren't themes.
Are there any good emulators btw? I haven't tried looking for any yet.
I only used the wallpaper option. I jailbroke my friend's wife's phone earlier this year, and she said the same thing...then I knew it wasn't just me and I got rid of it oo. I have a 3G iPhone BTW.
Never bothered with any emulators other than SCUMM. I'm not big on touch screen controls trying to emulate d-pads and buttons.

I just fell ass backwards into a 2G iPod Touch today. This thread is relevant to my interests.
