After using an iPhone 3G, then experiencing the iPhone 3GS–the performance was like night and day. Then, going from the iPhone 3GS to the iPhone 4–more speed improvements were gained. However, the new ‘multitasking’ feature of iOS 4 has caused my iPhone 3GS/iPhone 4 to come to a crawl at certain times. Why? The reason…

Hey, everyone! It’s been a while since I’ve done a theme tutorial, so I thought I’d show you a quick an easy one today. If you’ve upgraded your device to iOS 4, you’re probably enjoying the new multitasking and folder features. iOS4 uses the same background for both, and is easily changed, if you have…

One of the major features introduced with the newest iPhone 4 is the ability to have two way video calling, which Apple calls FaceTime.

One of the coolest things I like about Tweetie, (now Twitter for iPhone), is the way you pull down the screen to refresh your feed. It is a cool, fun way to load your newest tweets. It is almost instinctive now, as I try to do it in other apps as well, and I almost…

If your iPhone is jailbroken, you’ve probably used OpenSSH, DiskAid, or some other means to access your root folder on your iPhone. If you’re not familiar, you would want to do this to transfer files to and from your iPhone, in a way Apple does not allow. This is used to add games ROMs for…

Just before the iPad was released, we saw all kinds of themes and tweaks to make your iPhone or iPod Touch have the same look and feel of the iPad. The coolest thing I saw was SBRotator. This tweak gave your iPhone or iPod Touch the “doesn’t matter how you hold it” feel, as it…

We saw the video of the Android OS running on the first generation iPhone and the iPhone 3G. As of today you can now download Android OS and make it run on your iPhone 3G should you choose to do so. All of this hard work comes at the hands of iPhone Dev Team member,…
