Hmm...
I think this is because they will have to sign up to the new 18 month contract anyways and there was not going to be any future gain from them as a customer as they are not on a contract. With the popularity of the simplicity contract o2 hopes they will see many of thoes customers switching over.
I think that makes sense. If they want the contract they they will have to sign up for the 18 months...
Im sure o2 will drop that fee as soon as the phones released

Best one I have found by far is AVS Video Converter, I have excellent quality feature length films and they are ~200MB, takes approx an hour, only downside I have found with it is the inability to queue films.
Excellent and well worth the purchase. I have tried all the others and none compare, and it will convert to a lot more than just mp4 or m4v, it is a full video authoring suite.
Posted by intelegent115
I think 200mb does not quite cut it for me. I think 200mb full movie looks like sh*t. Decent conversion (i dont like dots) takes at least 400mb. If you have 8gb that should not be a prob. 200mb and HQ i would really like to see. Depends on what you call HQ.
Anyone knows if there is a confirmed info that "T-Mobile might launch a 16Gb HSDPA enabled iPhone in november" - in Europe? Sounds cool but a little unrealistic to me. I think at first we`ll see just 4gb and 8gb in Europe, then maybe if apple will put out an successor we might see it just like 4gb and 8gb now?

Hey everyone how do you find the ring volume? No matter what tone i use (ones i added, not the pre-installed ones) there really quite quiet. It's ok when i'm listening to music because it comes through the headphones but when it's in my pocket i never hear it even when it's on full?
Posted by haynesycop
If anyone has a mac get remote buddy, you can control tonnes of stuff from your iPhone, it's awesome.

i was reading today, that in france iphone has to be released unlocked, cos of french laws. thats good news for french iphone fans
Posted by tk338
Isnt english law the same tho? Or similar, theres a thread bout it somewhere.
Posted by BobaFett
yes, but afaik uk is still negotiating, but france already discussed it with apple... not sure whats up atm in the uk, but guess, it will ( has to be ) unlocked too
Posted by jalal
If the law says it must be unlocked in the UK then its good news for us with hacked iPhones.
Posted by m8cky
What happens to us with hacked phones?? If they are unlocked here will we be able to 'officially' unlock ours coz ours are from the states and locked to AT&T??????
Was jumping the gun the wrong thing, should we of waited until the uk launch??
Posted by haynesycop
I'm wondering this too, even if it is then i'm not too bothered there will always be ways to be able to update.
Posted by m8cky
Agreed, would love to officially unlock it here though!!
Another question incase anyone knows......
Will voice mail start working for me when o2 launch the iphone as I'm currently on o2???
Posted by haynesycop
Ditto! I do hope it well, we'll just have to play the waiting game. Got an update from my friend, apparently i could get it for £249 plus my tariff so not much difference from the £269 officially quoted.
How come :bt: doesn't work over here? Is there a chance it ever will as i really miss this feature?
Posted by m8cky
haynesycop, we think the same!!
Desperate for bluetooth to work, I miss it soooo much!
Posted by Dogmann
@m8cky
It depends on if the so called special 02 Sims and being on a 02 iPhone tariff is what gives you access to the visual voice mail or not. So for now i don't think anyone knows one way or the other just have to wait for November 9th and see what happens.
As to getting your US sourced iPhones unlocked this all depends IMO on if it is Apple that will be forced to unlock them or if it is 02 or obviously if they don't have to at all. Although i am not sure if the fact they weren't purchased in the UK will effect it.

Hopefully it won't. I mean what if iTunes can detect it is American by the serial number? Either way i'm glad i got it when i did to be honest.
Visual voicemail isn't an issue for me but bluetooth certainly is. There is alot of modding you can do to it too, to change tones and other things but i don't want to be messing around with it too much.
Another i meant to ask is has anyone had problems with the services app? I got it so i could turn off edge and save some money and it has hung twice and i've had to reset it.
Got rid of it earlier today and it has been fine since then.
Posted by m8cky
cheers marc.
haynesycop, I have the services app and i not had any problems.

How come no ones mentioned the iphone sdk being released in spring?
Posted by amnesia
because nobody knew?
Posted by fatreg
I'm sure Apple sent out a mail about the SDK..
I'll see if i can dig it out
Posted by p900 lover
Where did you guys (and girls) get your iphones from? im looking to get one before the uk release and jus wondering where from
Posted by haynesycop
I got mine from super who got it from amnesia i think, just got a BB though so i'm going to have to alternate them now.
Posted by spikeyjac
How much you pay?
Posted by intelegent115
I can say that iphone suits me best at the moment. I have tried all the "big guns" available in europe. Also i have discovered what functions i use most.. 8gb surely is enough for all you multimedia freaks..
I have already mentioned the leak of hsxpa..but for me it doesnt play a big role since i am always "in range". But if you realy need something badly i think edge does a nice job as well although slower..
Posted by m8cky
its gone awfully quiet in this post, surley all the iphone owners are not bored with the great phone thats ever been made?? Or is it just there's nothing to complain about..
Anyone recommend any new apps??
Posted by smilerthe cheshirecat
I personally like ToDoList... simple app.... but useful...
Also like Customize...with the ability to move the icon order around... SMS has now taken the place of Mail on my iPhone dock....
I think we are all watching with interest the Virginizing debate on unlocked phones so that they can be updated to latest firmware and unlocked again... Personally waiting for an easy mac version...

not much has been going on as of late. I'll be showing a 1.1.1 tutorial soon as I have a bit of spare time.
There is also that cool hack which 'unlocks' international keyboards.

Is anyone using a Logic istation with the iphone?
does it work...is it compatible with the iphone?
Thanks

I finally took the plunge and followed the guide at modmyiphone and virginized my phone, updated to 1.1.1, and unlocked it. Took a couple of hours but it works like a dream.

i have added some music folders to itunes but the album art is missing. how do i copy that over too?
Posted by haynesycop
Have you taken the music from itunes? If so and it had album art in there then it should still be tagged to the song.
Posted by Marc_SE
@haynesycop
Have a look at the guides over on www.modmyifone.com for upgrading your iPhone via a Mac (and Windows too).

In iTunes, highlight the group of songs you want to add a single album art picture to, or if its a single song, just highlight that.
On a windows computer, right click it, or on a Mac press control and click it. Then press "Get info" and it should be straight-forward from there.
I know on a Mac you can drag and drop images into the album art box. You probably can on a Windows computer too. Otherwise click it and you should be able to browse your files for the correct image.
I you have an iTunes membership, i believe album art is free, you just follow the steps I just wrote, but click "get album art" instead of "get info".

Yes, I did it on a Mac, it's very easy to do. Just follow the guide at modmyifone.com

Yes if you hack it. Activate with iNdependence and Jailbreak it etc.
But out of the box the simple answer is No! You have to activate the phone through iTunes, which is where you sign up for your tariff etc and it links the simcard to the iPhone somehow.

I was wondering this too? Can i just download iNdependence or do i need to download the other programs aswell beforehand?
Posted by Marc_SE
Has it been confirmed which firmware will be shipping on the O2/UK handsets? I think the ones unveiled at the announcement were v1.1.1, but if it's a further release (as Apple are apparently running v1.1.2 internally) then it'll be a waiting game possibly.
Posted by mswallis
My iPhone was software unlocked on 1.0.2. You have to virginize your phone before doing anything, everything you need to know is over at modmyifone.com, it's easier than you think. I upgraded to 1.1.1 without problem.

I would assume you would.
normally when you plug your 02 sim in a phone it comes up with all the settings for MMS and GPRS, btw if you have difficutlties ring 02 it's free

I am in the process or virginizing my iPhone using the guide at http://www.modmyifone.com and have come across a problem.
I have added the appropriate files from the virginizer folder that i downloaded and have put it into /usr/bin
Then it tells you to go to terminal and type;
ssh -1 root iPhones IP Address
I have done this but i get an error and just wondered if somebody knows what to do to rectify it?
Here is a screenshot so you can see what i mean;

I've heard that you'll only be able to use particular simcards with the O2 iPhone i.e. not exisiting ones.
