    Has anyone heard any latest rumours on when the iphone will be out in Ireland?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 569 ✭✭✭Bubba


    Hey,

    So does anyone know of any iphone hacks for 1.1.2 with firware 04.02.13_g.

    Also with the new bootloader since it was bought after the 9th of this month.

    I don't think there are any out there yet but no harm in checking because its really annoying having an iphone here and not being able to use it :(


    Thanks for any help

    Having trouble contacting unlockthatiphone for the past couple of days (Since Tuesday), there not responding to my emails or calls, what should I do?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 467 ✭✭nikimere


    What you trying to contact them for?
    I'd say they've either been forced to close or have done a runner with the money they made.

    You can retrieve money from PayPal, have a look on the paypal site. You have to open a case and then they'll try contact unlockthatiphone. If they dont succeed, you should get a refund from PayPal. If you didn't receive the services you paid for that is.

    Google for a AVI and DIVX => MP4 converter and then add them to your iTunes. Then sync you iTunes with your phone. That should work.
    This should also shed some light: http://www.hackint0sh.org/forum/showthread.php?t=8459

    i dont think im technically minded enough to be able to do that, anyone know an easier way?

    Not that i know of, i dont really follow the older firmware update threads.
    The only method i know of (but i haven't read up much about it) is to use iDemocracy 2.0 (for Windows) but you will need to virginize your phone 1st. http://code.google.com/p/idemocracy/
    Be VERY CAREFUL when doing any sort of self unlocking on your phone.

    Hi everybody,

    So, I have unlocked my iphone and all is working brilliantly except for voicemail alerts i.e. when someone leaves me a voicemail I get no notification. I am on the O2 network. Does anybody have tips on how to activate this function? I know visual voicemail does not work but surely it is possible to get notification if someone leaves a message.

    Thanks for the help folks

    Been answered already in this thread, basically up to 1.1.1 (not sure of 1.1.2 firmware) iPhone does not display msgs from short codes such as 171

    I am on Vodafone and had same problem, but changed notification from text to a voice call to let me know I had a msg

    Never been on O2 so don't know if they offer that option

    1.1.2 firmware may fix it, but need to wait for it to be unlocked first


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,241 ✭✭✭drdre


    Guys my sister got a iphone online 3 weeks ago and was working perfectly until this week when now its saying call failed and where it should say o2 its saying no service.Please help me and let me know what the problem is as she is getting annoyed.

    Hope to hear from someone.thanks in advance

    thats for mac , im using windows, do you know if i can do it on a pc?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 467 ✭✭nikimere


    You can but the tutorials are a little messy... Like that thread you said you were not technically minded enough to work your way through.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 216 ✭✭amandac


    do you know if its easy to virginise the iphone, the democrasy method doesnt look too complicated, could i damage the iphone beyond repair by virginising it?

    I don't know to be honest. Never had to do it. There is a lot of info out there if you Google it. The Hackint0sh forum is probably one of the best places.

    Hi nikimere
    have you upgraded to 1.1.2 is it worth it?

    I haven't because the phone i bought was 1.1.2 out of the box. From what i've read though, there doesn't seem to be any big changes. If i had a 1.1.1 i wouldn't be bothered.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 216 ✭✭amandac


    hi everyone, ive been googling all morning and to be honest i dont think im experienced enough to chance trying to unlock my iphone, as i said i have accidently updated it to 1.1.2 and the furthest ive got is to downgrade to 1.0.2 with ibrikr is there anyone who has succesfully unlocked and activated a 1.1.2, it is not a uk phone, its a us one, if anyone would be willing to get it working for me again i would pay them for their time, so if anyone can do it please let me know, its really annoying me now just looking at it sitting there,

    Unfortunately dude it's locked. There's no way of getting around it at present. Think of it this way though, you've got a nice handy technologically advanced paperweight.
