one hundred and twenty four posts, over eleven months but finally I can say
I have a Beta patch!
I say beta becuase I thought it to be fine, but between
apparently burning my serial port (from connectiong it striaght to my computer) (i dont know if i have actually - cause i can still read from the iphone, and if i fryed the controller the whole port shouldnt work...) and working on sending raw HCI commands to the Bluecore 6-ROM Bluetooth chip, I dont know whats happening anymore.
(yes i am actually working on patching bt next, btw any info drop us a line on david , which is the account name, to the domain: villagepublishing.com.au [guess where the '@' goes...

])
So anyway, being the tempremental little bitch the iphone is, once i have played a video without the cable in, and plug the cable in it doesnt output to TV, i have to GDB the process, and do something I did like 6 months ago
DO NOT BE ALARMED, A RESTORE WILL PROBABLY FIX THIS,
but in light of this, i will not release a patcher file, but rather call on two (2) Beta testers.
You must surfice all these requirements:
1. (optional) have an iPhone 3G AND dock (NOT THE UNIVERSAL ONE, the iphone 3G one)
2. an iphone 3G running 2.1
3. a non-apple certified cable that, when you plug it in says "this accessory is not made to work for iphone would you like to turn on airplane blah blah blah (if i see that msg one more i will throw my iph @ a wall

)
4. (optional) a home made tv-out cable that says the same msg when plugged in
happy β testing!
ps β testers will get a new iapd file, not the patcher file.
