[ SCREENIE ] Video Recording in 3.0

[sziklassy]

Is it at all possible this stuff will be disabled for all current models and only be usable for the next one?

[BenzoHartt]

this is definitely great news cycorder is great but nothing like an official recording app it will definitely be awesome i can barely think of reasons to need to jailbreak now lol

^^^ i couldn't agree more. :-) ^^^

[njaunich]

I am in the info plist but there is only one toggle option. Do you know what the name of the toggle option is?

I know that apple is providing everything that users want in order to curb the amount of jailbreaking but until you can make custom themes and looks of your phone, jailbreaking will live on. I want the ability to do something to my phone to make it different from anyone else that has one. It's like going to a buffet and the owner tells you that you can only eat from half the buffet after you have seen all the food available!

And what is up with the battery percent displayed in the screenshot? Has anyone seen anything in the beta that indicates that this will be apart of 3.0 as well?

Great news indeed.

I am on 3.0 and I have the percent at the top. Not sure if it matters but when I was on 2.2 jailbroke I had the Percent turned on through sbsetting (Or Boss Prefs) can't remember which one so maybe it just stay enabled.

i hear you man but we did say BARELY!.lol I'm a jailbreak maniac and have been since the very beginning (i forked over my cash for the 2G.lol) so don't think i'm against it. Its just that with the 3.0 beta software they have cut back tremendously on my need to jailbreak. With the exception of the THEMEs and winterboard, what other reasons do we have to jailbreak? Everyone feel free to hump in on this. I don't want to over look anything. :-)

Replaced Apps include:

Cycorder
Clippy/Hclipboard
Quickgold
Swirly SMS
xGPS
PdaNet
Backgrounder - once everyone is on board with the push thing.

These were the apps that i used the most. :-)

Ok now that apple has finally provided much of what we were jailbreaking for we need to brainstorm for new app ideas! Many of the apps made by the major iphone development teams are going to become obsolete in 3.0, hopefully this means those devs focus on even cooler stuff

dugg for the empire records reference.

^^^ GREAT IDEA! I can't wait to be surprised. ^^^

[blazingangel1986]

[Jammole]

True, True. Everthing you listed above except for Backgrounder, quickgold, swirly sms (i use iRealSMS), and PDaNet I use (I could never get my swirly MMS to work). But you are completely right. I guess just the thought of doing something else that the majority of iPhone owners cant do since I have jailbroken my phone is a turn on. Granted, everything that apple has or will be bringing with 3.0 are things that us jailbreakers have had from day one but some of Apple's stock apps could use improvements. Example of this is SMS, the stock Apple app is ok and works fine but by jailbreaking you can get access to iRealSMS (or something similar) which IMO, is a HUGE upgrade. And the fact that Apple has this screening process with the app store where certain apps dont get approved, and some of the apps are really good apps, you need some way of getting them to the people who really want them.............thus the birth of the Cydia Store.

I agree with you 100% but regardless if Apple gives us everything we wanted and more, even custom themes/winterboard, I would still jailbreak just to increase the number good apps that I would have access to.

I'm skeptical about this... that screenshot doesn't exactly prove video recording abilities. It looks more like a file browser for photos and videos/movies that you have sync'd into your phone via iTunes.

[Zehlek]

its the info plist in the camera app. the camcorder doesnt work tho

Sorry to sound stupid, but did you have to jailbreak 3.0-2 in order to get to the p.list file?

[StealthBravo]

Yes, you have to ssh into it

[MetallicaFan1991]

What if video recording is only available in the new iPhone? As we all know iPhone 2G can do MMS and send stuff through Bluetooth but Apple wont put them features in for us, I guess video recording won't be available for use 2G users either.

Well put! we still love options.lol I don't want Apple or anyone else telling what i can and can't do with MY iPhone.
