Today Skype, Inc released the official version of Skype for the iPhone. Available for free, Skype for iPhone  allows users to make voice calls while connected to Wi-Fi as well as send instant messages over the cell network.

Customize lets you change all kinds of things on your iPhone or iPod Touch: sounds, system strings (like the Slide to Unlock text), icons, wallpaper, etc. There’s also a huge theme database within the app.

it will be soon in installe and Cydia

yep iPhone Dev team just updated there blog and theye say:

“With all of the great stuff lined up for us with the 3.0 OS that Apple described today, many 3G owners may find themselves with itchy update fingers. If you find yourself with access to the 3G IPSW for 3.0 via the iPhone Dev Center program, and you are using yellowsn0w, do not update or restore to that official IPSW. You will lose yellowsn0w and find yourself unable to revert the baseband to get it back.

And for those wondering, yes the 3.0 OS is jailbreakable on all devices. It’s just those using 3G yellowsn0w that have to show some restraint and wait for PwnageTool to create a custom IPSW that avoids the baseband update.”

iBluetooth Released

MeDevil has finally released iBluetooth making it the first iPhone app for the jailbroken iPhone to allow users to transfer files from their iPhone via Bluetooth, a feature which has been missing from the iPhone since its launch.

How to Unlock your iPhone 3G using the iPhone Dev Team’s Unlock, yellowsn0w

If your iPhone 3G is already jailbroken, jump to step 3 (you already knew that):

1. Update your iPhone 3G to 2.2 firmware via iTunes (to ensure you’ll be on baseband 02.28.00).
2. Jailbreak using QuickPwn 2.2 .
3. Launch Cydia –> click on Manage –> click on Sources –> click Edit –> click Add –> enter the following Cydia repository URL found here –> Click on Return to Cydia.
4. Click on Search. Type in “yellowsn0w”. Install yellowsn0w (it should be version 0.9.1, it was updated fairly quickly). Let it finish installing, exit Cydia.
5. Reboot your iPhone with foreign SIM installed…10 seconds later after reboot you should get a signal. If you don’t, try taking the SIM tray out then reinserting again.
6. That’s it! Your iPhone 3G is unlocked!

I installed yellowsn0w was able to pop in my du SIM card I was using in Dubai on my iPhone 2G. At first I quickly saw the “SIM Failure” message pop up then disappear quickly. The du SIM was able to pick up a signal! Success!

If you had success or some problems, let us know, but more important, let the Dev Team know by posting comments on their blog here. It’s imperative for them to get feedback in order to improve yellowsn0w to work for all carriers from around the world!

Big props to the entire iPhone Dev Team for their hard work. The entire globe is thanking them right about now!
