i recently got the iphone 3gs, does any one have any tips for it and things like that. the other day my screen got really big and it was so big that i couldnt use it properly and i had to try and reset the whole phone it took me the whole day just to get into the settings !! and then when looking on line i found out that all i needed to do was double tap using three fingers for it to shrink i felt so stupid trying to go the long way round : (
Or you can grab the corners with say your thumb and your index finger... and drag then towards each other. That shrinks also. Obviously, drag away to make it bigger. I've got one too... Pro Tip: Don't give it to the girlfriend. Don't let her put it in the washing machine. It breaks. If you are specific about things you'd like to know, I'll happily help. Oh for a secret screen shot feature, hold the "off button" and the menu button at the same time and it will screenshot whatever is on your screen at the time. (Great for stealing photo's that you're in off of friends facebooks etc.)
You can press the home button twice to get to the play/pause/next/previous buttons for your ipod without unlocking your phone or going to the ipod app... that's probably the only thing I found useful out of the iphone's weird features. Also if you still have the manual it should give some other tips on what diff things you can do. (I was bored and read the one that came w/ my iphone4, but I don't remember most of it now)
i was really tempted to jail break but the other day i plugged it in and updated it and now i can have pics on the back ground as well as the lock screen so i was really happy about that : D , im just struggling to find good apps, espiccially the ones for free coz im a cheap skate ; )
...If you jailbreak it you can make your own message tones too yea? Because I'm soooo sick of the beep! I want to jailbreak my IPhone...
http://www.ipodtouchfans.com/ Very good forum for iPod Touches, iPhones, and iPads. Also has tutorials on how jailbreak your iphone. *Pokes jailbroken iPod Touch 2g*
when you jailbreak your phone how risky are the risks, coz i dont want any thing bad to happen and even tough all of my pics ...ect are backed up on itune i can open my photos to see them so im worried if i end up restarting it, i wount be able to get every thing back
If you crack the screen, order the glass online and replace it. its as easy as removing 5 screws. Cost $15 in total to replace the entire front glass. and a total of 30 minutes . Also Countless tutorials online for repairs.
the reason why it enlarge is because u have the zoom function on. If that does happen to you again do not panic all you have to do is use 3 fingers and double tap on your screen =D you can off the zoom function at general settings
I highly recommend you jailbreak your phone. It's now legal, and you don't lose your warranty, because if it breaks or something, you can restore it on your computer, removing all traces of the jailbreak.
- if you press the hold button and the menu button at the same time, it will take a screenshot - shake it while in ipod and it will shuffle songs for you - the white thing on your headphones: tap once to play/pause, twice to skip to next song, three times to go back to beginning of current song
I had both an iPod touch and an iPhone, and I only got the special headphones with the inline mic with the iPhone.
i knew about the head phjones button and then i pauses but i didnt know about being able to skip song, is it still the same button you press to pause/start. thanks
Iphones are too complicated if you ask me and so many things going wrong with them ie you loose signal if you don't hold the phone right
