Vigilant readers over at MacRumors found out the url to the iPhone 2.0 Firmware even before its official launch. After digging through the Apple’s XML files they managed to get the url. This build is slightly higher then the previous iPhone Firmware Beta (5A345) which was spotted on the 3G iPhones.

Be very sure to fully sync before proceeding. You’ve gotta install it on your iPhone manually by holding option key while clicking “Check for Update”,. If for some reason your download is a “.zip” file, rename it to “.ipsw” before proceeding. Make sure you back your iPhone before updating, it will clean up your iPhone completely.

Interestingly AT&T didn’t wanted VOIP over at iPhone, mainly because that would ruin their Visual Voicemail thing. Thanks to a company called Fring using the native app, it’s now possible to place and receive calls via your WiFi connection!  To get this working you just need a jailbroken iPhone, Wi-FI access, and you’ll be able to call regular phones using either SkypeOut or SIP.

Besides the usual VOIP via Skype it lets you connect to various other chat apps like MSN Messenger, ICQ, GTalk, SIP, Yahoo, AIM, and Twitter! Yeah twitter.

You can now control the Blu ray with your iPhone with a cool new software called BD Touch. Denny Breitenfield, CEO of NetBlender, the people who created this technology has stated that it is also an SDK for iPhone developers.

Folks at Gizmodo got some inside scoop from the creators themselves.

♦ The app will be able to show more information about the current movie on your iphone.

♦ It will display extra information on the movie.

♦ You will be able to convert the iphone into a game controller for the already existing blu-ray game discs.

Fans will never rest until they get the best from what they have. This is a similar one. Guys at Hemitworks have managed to run Quake III on Ipod touch and the Iphone. Wait, here comes the best part. You can control the character by simply tilting the Iphone, so no finger cramps there folks!

For the time being its still a beta, no mention on when we get our hands on. We’ll keep you posted.

Recently i did a tutorial on how to unlock, jailbreak and activate your iPhone using the ziphone. But i have got lots of comments related to the wifi, youtube not working. I found out that with a better tool (iLiberty) you can fix these few problems. If you can’t wait for the latest ziphone to get launched with the Wifi, youtube fixes here’s how to fix it.

But fellows i’m really sorry we have to go through the restore and unlock process again. Here’s how it goes.

So you jailbroken your iPhone or iPod touch and wanna install those cool applications out there, but you either don’t have a Wifi modem or lack a strong Wifi connection.

iGopher is a great application for windows that lets you download and build a local package from the PC, then connect to computer via the USB connection and transfer and install them on your jailbroken iPhone/iPod.

The program still is in the initial stages and lots of bugs still lurking, like not able to find the right applications etc etc, and not compatible with different unlocker tools. For more on how to get it working go to igopher official site.

You can’t describe the awesomeness of iPhone with few words. Only working with its interface will let you know why iPhone is so great! Recently Apple launched the iPhone SDK, so we can expect applications in coming weeks. But hey we already we had tons of awesome apps for our jailbroken iphone even before the SDK came.

So here’s are my list of 7 must have apps for you jailbroken iPhone.

Apollo IM

Apollo IM is the ultimate instant messenger application for your jailbroken iPhone. The latest version of Apollo IM (V1.0.2) now supports AIM, ICQ, .mac, and MSN, we can expect more clients as development continues.
