Since the iPhones (and their cousins iPod Touches…) were first released, one of the biggest complaints I’ve heard from those who have them (myself included) is that unlike the previous iPods Apple had released, the iPhone could not be used as a USB drive to store and transfer files. Even with the advent of jailbreaking, all of the solutions to this that I’ve found up until now have required that you have iTunes on the device- something that isn’t feasible for people like me whose work computers are solidly locked down such that iTunes cannot be installed on it (and even if it could be installed, there would be trouble if there were an audit of the computers). USB Drive from Dmytro is the first true solution to use the iPhone (or presumably a similarly jailbroken Touch) as an honest-to-goodness USB storage device.

So, traditionally ‘Super Freedom Friday’ has been a place for me to discuss different things about my jailbroken iPhone. However, since to date no jailbreak has been released for our shiny new iPhone 3GS phones, that’s kind of hard to do at the moment. So, I though I’d take the chance to talk about something else for the moment: how the 3.0 firmware has changed my usage of the phone while driving. Read more »
So yeah- it’s been a while since I last did one of these. Over a month, I believe. Things have been rather hectic and odd for both Kevin and I which has made keeping up with things difficult, but conveniently there was something new that came out today that I really wanted to talk about, so that means a new Super Freedom Friday post! And that super-cool addition to the jailbreak stable is called Pandora Controls. Read more »
The changes and updates coming to the iPhone with the 3.0 firmware update expected to hit in a few months have had the community (and us) abuzz about them since it was officially announced. In today’s SFF, Bob takes a look at the features announced and discovered in 3.0 vs. those available now via Jailbreak as well as some thoughts on Jailbreaking after 3.0 hits.

We’ve secretly replaced Bob’s usually Jailbroken iPhone 3G with a non-jailbroken one for the last week- let’s see if he notices…. Well, OK- so that’s now quite entirely accurate, but for the last week Yunocchi has been ‘un-jailbroken’ for both practical reasons and to give me something good to write about here on Super Freedom Friday.

In today’s discussion of the ins and outs of jailbreaking, we’ll be discussing one of the simplest but most useful features available to jailbroken phones: status bar notifiers.

Though I had this all ready yesterday I didn’t get around to actually posting it… Doh. Anyway- jumping right into the fray (and delaying talking about my issues with the move from FW2.2 to FW2.2.1 for another day…), I’m going to take a look at the Jailbreak implementations of one of the features most commonly griped about being omitted from the iPhone: Copy & Paste.
