If you're using RedSn0w as a tethered jailbreak solution for your iPhone, then you undoubtedly try to avoid rebooting your iPhone whenever possible. That's because, as we've previously discussed, a tethered jailbreak requires a computer in order to reboot your iPhone successfully.
This "tethered boot" is accomplished by means of RedSn0w, and the Dev Team has tried to make it as painless as possible with new solutions like 'one click' support. However, if you still find that the tethered boot process is consuming a lot of your time, you may want to try leaving RedSn0w running on your computer indefinitely...

My cousin jut got his first iPhone a few months ago and he's what I'd call a total noob about it. A couple days ago when we were in Vegas, he asked me how to email a photo he had taken with his iPhone. I couldn't help laughing at him but I quickly realized that if he didn't know how to do that, there's probably other people out there in the same situation, which is why I thought it'd be a good thing to write up a quick tip about this.
Obviously, this is a tip for beginners. If you've had an iPhone for a while, you most likely already know how to do that.
In this post, I'll show you 3 ways to email pictures from your iPhone...
This is a ninja tip that was sent to me by an anonymous reader about how to quote text in an email reply. Let's say you receive an email from someone. In your reply, you want to quote some of the text to comment on it for example.
To do that, simply select the text you want to quote and hit the "reply" icon. This way, only your selected text will be copied in your email reply...
Many of us jailbreakers know how frustrating it can be to debug the modifications we make to iOS. When installing an app in Cydia, if the app requires it, Cydia gives you a prompt to restart your springboard.
There are two types of restarts you can have on your iPhone: a hardware restart and a software restart. A hardware restart takes considerably longer, and it is when you see the Apple boot logo (or your own, modded logo). A simple software restart usually does the trick for installing new packages on your iPhone, and it also helps with ironing out the bugs you may be experiencing...

Many airlines now offer in-flight wifi, which is a great way to kill time during a long flight. When boarding an airplane with a phone, you are required to either turn it off or activate the airplane mode, which basically turns off the iPhone cellular, wifi, bluetooh, and GPS to avoid interfering with the aircraft.
But did you know you can still enjoy Internet access while still on airplane mode?

If you're brand new to the iPhone, then read on because you're going to learn some simple and effective tricks...
If you have an iPhone 3G running iOS 4, you know how painfully slow your device can be. This is due to the fact that iOS 4 was designed for more powerful devices like the iPhone 3GS and the iPhone 4.
iPhone hacker Comex tweeted a link to a MMI article showing how you can easily make your iPhone 3G on iOS 4 faster. Apparently, turning off Spotlight Search does the trick.
To do so, go to Settings > General >Home Button > Spotlight Search, then turn off everything and reboot your iPhone.
I don't have an iPhone 3G so I wasn't able to verify this but looking at all the positive comments over at MMI, I assume this is working like a charm.
Please try it and let us know how it goes for you.

Patrick from Just Another iPad Blog shared a nice tip about how to save web pages for reading in iBooks.
Have you ever started reading a long article on the web and thought that it would be great to be able to read it in iBooks on the iPad? If so, did you know it’s quite easy (on a Mac) to print a web page as a PDF to iTunes and read it later on the iPad (or iPhone) in iBooks?
Well … it is. Read on for a quick rundown on how it’s done …
This little trick requires a few steps, so instead of copy/pasting what Patrick wrote, I suggest you go check out his article.
You probably already know you can sync your Google emails, calendars and contacts with your iPhone using Google Sync. But do you know you can also sync your iPhone notes with your Gmail account?
The only requirement for being able to sync your notes with Gmail is that your iPhone be updated to iOS 4. When you set up your Gmail account on your iPhone, you will now have the option to sync your notes.
If you have several Gmail account set up on your iPhone, you will be able to sync your notes to specific accounts. In the top left corner of the Notes.app, a new button will appear letting you choose what account you want to sync with.
One downside to this is that it's a one-way sync, which means that you can only sync your notes from your iPhone to your Gmail account. You can't sync from Gmail notes to your iPhone.
