could probably have a wank in the time it took the 4.2.1 iPhone to boot

[MirekMateju]

@BennWilliams1 It seems that the boot time increases with the count of installed apps. However, is there any reason to reboot iPhone more often than, let’s say, once a week?

im sure the boot is hardware not software

is 4.1 worth updating ? ino 4.2 is out but i lose my unlock then

i can bk up the baseband off my mac so....

[MirekMateju]

@iSoLeWoLf67 All features depend on both HW and SW but these two iPhones have identical hardware... The 4.1 was not clearly worth updating – that was a reason to make this video. However, 4.2 works faster and has some new features, so I find it definitely worth updating from 3.x or previous 4.x.

Lepší je Ios 3

@MirekMateju had to reboot my old jailbroken iPhone all the time so it can be annoying when you need to get on it fast

@langerfilip 4.3.1 pre iPhone 3G? Kde si o tom počul? Môžem dostať link?

[langerfilip]

Ja jsem zkousel obe verze a musim rict, ze 3.1.3 je daleko lepsi. Pouzivam whited00r 4.3.1 pro iPhone 3G a je to daleko rychlejsi nez 4.2.1.

@biomedgrad It's still "through Cydia", not the official way. Although it's probably the multitasking written by Apple... My iPhone is not jailbroken.

@MirekMateju search for: "Enable multitasking & wallpapers on iOS4 through cydia - iTouch 2g (MC)/ iPhone 3g" I think you can use multitasking on the 3G. I know I used to, using 3.1.2 via "backgrounder" on Cydia.
