Okay, we know that since Apple released the iPhone, you’ve all been wanting to modify it to do your bidding. Over on the OS X side of things, we have iFuntastic, which provides a slick GUI interface for modding your device. New to the Windows side of things is iBrickr. iBrickr is the Windows application that makes it dead simple to modify your iPhone, add and manage custom ringtones, and install third-party applications. We give you a full tutorial of how it all works in this episode.

Hey guys! Just wanted to know if iBrickr will work on phones that are still in packages? I have TMobile as my phone service, will iBrickr work on the IPHONE right out of the box? Do I need to do anything else before I jailbreak the IPHONE? Thanks everyone!

I just used IBrickr to install custom ring tones on my iphone and it took me about 10 minutes to do it. It’s so easy. Just download IBrickr, watch the tutorial/instruction video and you’re done. It works 100%. Thanks so much.

In iTunes there is no restore button. There is only an Activation screen. And i don’t have ATT to activate the iPhone. Is there a way to unlock the phone without ATT account?

So I went with add ringtones without modding my phone… THE RING appears in my phone/settings for Ringtones.. Here is the issue I can listen to it..but if I call my phone it goes back to another ring. Ive tried already to turn off my phone an turn it back on..Results are ringtone still exsists BUT WHEN you call the phone still goes to the oldschool orginal ring? Have any idea..thanks so much

this is for david, dude you can use the ibrickr only one problem you cant use it if you have version 1.1.1 on if you have 1.1.2. If you try and use it witha different versionv it will lock the phone and the process to unock an unlocked phone is much harder

Dear People,
about two months ago I bought a Iphone with firmware 1.1.2 and got it jailbraked and unlocked. However, yesterday I was using it on the speakers with the I-radio application, after I stopped it the Iphone restarted what it occasionally does. But this time it didnt restarted but it showed me the sign of a n Iphone in recovery mode. Now I tried to boot the phone with Ibrickr 0.91, it got red like what it should do, but then i got the same problem over and over again, so it doesnt seems to work, But I dont want to restore to original settings in Itunes because then I have to jailbreak and unlock it again.. This is right isnt it? Does someone here know what I can do best or what the solution is for my problem?? I appreciate your help… Greets Maurice
