is there a baseband change in 2.1 for iphone 3G ?. the base baseband in 2.0.2 is 02.08.01.. what is it in 2.1 ?

[Tails234]

I had 2.0.1 pwned and I did a restore to 2.1 and like people say it's unlocked but can't activate. Is there a quick way to activate? I don't care about 3rd party apps. Just want to use my carrier with 2.1 right now.

I noticed there is a sound effects option in one of the pictures on another website. I dont have that.

Also i have no idea where to change the number of alerts for a text message as said in the update features.

I did noticed that now when text privacy is on it just says new text message instead of new text message with the name of who sent it.

the new icons are lame. There is still a slight lag when pressing a name in contacts and it doesn't highlight it blue.

The initial backup when installing took ages and so did verify software

WHERE IS THE TEXT NOTIFICATION OPTION!?!?

This is Apples version of spamming your phone to buy more music from them.

Ha, Brilliant thats exactly what it is.... Did you guys see the pop up that came from the updated itunes that says "itunes can now get artwork easier" or something like that, its because its attached to the ads their now giving us. They want to milk us dry.

I aint got no mo money to give em...... I'm hurtin mann, I'm hurtinn

Can anyone post their custom 2.1 firmware for 2G first gen phone, like we had for 2.0.2?

Thanks in advance

No new stuff, just fixes

I am sure lots of people are going to be happy if the fixes work. I haven't had any of these issues except slow texting if I have ssh enabled in bossprefs. When I disable it my texting is back to normal.

It is strange how the same phone can act different ways for different people.

It's actually more similar to Pandora as in it'll try to pick similar songs to the one you choose and make a playlist out of it.

Updated an unlocked, activated and jailbroken (with pwnage) original iPhone with Firmware 2.0.2 and it remained unlocked and activated, but with no jailbreak. I lost cydia and installer 2.0 and related apps. Everything else was fine. Was worth it for the speed of contacts and Genius playlists.

ill wait til i get the okay from the dev team before doing this. the glitches on 2.0.2 are annoying but i can live with them a few more days til the dev teams says i can winpwn it cant wait!

You think it'll take them a few days?? If memory serves me correctly, I've seen em do it within the same day of a release in the past!

I hope this is the case today! I can't stand the glitches either but can't go without cydia, winterboard, blah blah.

Pwn'ed iPhone 2.0.2 "udpated" to 2.1 without problem. Remind unlocked and activated. DO NOT DO RESTORE THO.

Carrier: Hong Kong Peoples

[flyinguysrocks]

Not only that but when will apple release yet another update, then the next etc etc etc Lately if you wait a week or so you can update and jump 3 firmware versions!!

Apple just calibrated the way Service Bar is display , sure you get full bar but the reception is still the same. Dial *3001#12345#* and press call . The lower the number the better reception. I'm still getting between -89 to -91 in my house as before.

Is it just me, or is the yellow screen tinge gone in 2.1? My screen (especially when viewing mostly white lists) seems a lot cooler in tone than before the update.

Anyone else seeing this?

Hardmac.com has links for both firmware updates.

I just noticed SONG LYRICS pop up on the screen. This was unexpected!

For me I'm just gonna wait for the pawnage update, Iblacklist, Kate and ilog 2 are running my phone now and keeping alot of things in tact for me right now (lol) I can afford to wait after all the phone is functioning well, and there are no major changes.

I am not losing Cydia either. This firmware release is not for me.
