iPhone Techie

Hey guys… I will be out of the office and my little iPhoneTechie world for couple of days due to the celebration of the New Years 2011…

By the way the picture listed above is from a 4th of July party we had that went BAD but I think it fits perfectly for today… FIREWORKS on our Pier!!! One of our fireworks got into our box of $2500 worth of explosives… Long Story

I would also take this opportunity to welcome all our new readers and subscribers who have recently started following iPhoneTechie.com. Please let me know if you need anything besides what I have been posting… I really appreciate all you guys coming back to iPhoneTechie on daily basis commenting, writing, asking questions, etc.

Happy New Year! Enjoy your parties, don’t drink too much, have a designated driver if possible and all the best in 2011! Here’s to a great year ahead of us and jailbreaking community!

As promised, iPhone Dev-Team had delivered the new and updated RedSn0w 9.7b4 this morning… The Redsn0w 9.7b4 has been released and it removes the usbmuxd requirement to untether your jailbreak.

Unfortunately, this release is Mac only and can only be used by those with their iOS 4.2b3 SHSH blobs saved. A Windows version will be released soon.

The fourth beta is now available (testers ONLY please!). Starting with this version, redsn0w no longer requires you to install and run a separate program for the usbmux (this was a non-trivial procedure for many). It’s okay to keep that program running if you normally use it for ssh anyway. Read more…

RunKeeper Pro is being offered free in a New Year’s special that runs through the end of January.

New Years is right around the corner so if you have a “Lose Weight” resolution for this year then this is the best app to get.

My Wife uses this App on daily basis and she loves it, the best thing is it’s FREE right now so you have a chance to grab it and try it out for FREE.

I used this app for a couple of weeks (I don’t work out / Fast Metabolism) and was pretty impressed with it. You have nothing to lose, try it out for free right now.

RunKeeper uses the GPS technology found in the iPhone to track your fitness activity, giving you comparable results to an expensive GPS watch at a fraction of the cost. Now, you can also enter your activities manually, including your treadmill runs too! Read more…

Hey guys, here are the iOS 4.2b3 IPSW 8C5115C IPSW files for all of you to download and save to your computers.

These files are required for the Untethered Jailbreak process so you have to get them before you try to untether your iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch running on iOS 4.2.1.

Just a reminder: Only iPhone developers have legit access to these firmware files so this is your chance to grab them and use them for the Untethered Jailbreak.

RedSn0w .9.7b4 will be released today to untether your iOS 4.2.1 jailbreak without the need for usbmuxd which is much easier than using the Terminal, Commands, etc.

This untether is a ‘backup plan’ from the iPhone Dev-Team. It requires access to the iOS 4.2b3 firmware and your iOS 4.2b3 SHSH blobs saved.

Currently, the untether is Mac only but the next update will bring Windows support. According to the latest tweet from Dev-Team, they will be expanding the Redsn0w into Windows with the next update (Hopefully) Read more…

Skype has updated its iPhone app to make Skype to Skype video calls over Wi-Fi and 3G.

The company has teased everyone with this update for about a week now and it came out of nowhere after Earlier this month a help document revealed that Skype will finally be bringing video calling to the iPhone

With Skype on your iPhone, iPod touch or iPad, you can make and receive calls, and instant message anyone else on Skype, wherever they are in the world. You can also save on international calls and text messages to phones. Skype is free to download and easy to use. With the latest version, you can now call over 3G, and keep Skype running in the background. Read more…

Just a quick heads up! Redsn0w 0.9.7 beta was out yesterday to bring untethered jailbreak for iOS 4.2.1 but some of our readers has reported that usbmuxd process  is not working with them.

In the same tweet, the iPhone Dev Team has confirmed that after finishing this task, the next version (Redsn0w 0.9.7b5) will include the Windows version. Read more…
