I’ve written up a tutorial for anyone to install Android on their iPhone 2G.  It’s quite long, but only because it’s so simple and each step has been broken down to almost every click just so it’s easy for a total beginner to try this out!

Planetbeing has announced that he has got Android running on the iPhone.

“Finally breaking radio silence to bring you Android on the iPhone. :)”

I’ve been working on this quietly in the background. Sorry about the initial video quality, but YouTube promises that the quality will get better as the video gets processed more. The back part of the version I uploaded to Vimeo was cut off.

In the video below Android is demonstrated on an iPhone 2G; however, it should be pretty simple to port forward to the iPhone 3G. The 3GS will take more work.

Planetbeing thanks CPICH for reversing support, harmn1, posixnina, jean, marcan and saurik for patches, and last but not least, TheSeven for his work on the FTL.

So you are a guitar player and looking for an easy way to take away your jam sessions with you? Guitarbud from PRS is the iPhone accessory your are looking for! It works with applications like Jammit, Riff source, PRS Jam Amp and many others. With the out-of-the-box Voice memo application, you can record your jam sessions, and send them to your friends by email. The solution is also suitable for bass and keyboard players!

Guitarbud is made by Paul Reed Smith Signature Cables and costs only $30 (I got mine yesterday, it’s awsome!). The moment you feel the inspiration, just plug the cable in and start playing and recording. The Guitarbud is suitable for the iPhone and the 2nd/3rd generation iPod touch, combined with a headset. The cable is 1.8 meters long. Rock on!

The iPhone Dev Team has just released a cross-platform jailbreaking, unlocking, and customizing tool for iPhones and iPod touches. We highly recommend redsn0w 0.9 if you need to jailbreak and/or unlock your iPhone. It’s the best and bug-free solution available so far.

This release supports:

– All iPhones and iPod touches (still a tethered-only JB for late-model devices though)
– Apple firmware 3.0 and 3.1.2
– Windows and Mac OSX

We have just received fresh reports that the next iPhone OS 4.0 beta version will be available for developers as early as end January! This is one very exciting news!

The firmware will not be available to the public, but those who want to try it before everyone else will have 2 options. Either you become a registered Apple Developer for $99 which is rather expensive and overkill for an end user. Either, you become a member of our beta testers team!

We will have a limited amount of beta testers slots for you to try the new iPhone OS 4.0 before everyone else. If you are interested, join our newsletter, we will let you know as soon as we have received the new beta firmware.
