iFuntastic v3 - Now available
For those who love hacking the iPhone and are fans of iFuntastic v2, you’ll have even more reasons to love version 3. One of the biggest improvements: PowerPC compatibility. So for those of you out there still running on those classic machines (raises hand), you too can now hack your iPhone to your heart’s desire. It also allows you to install applications via a file browser, upload those old NES ROMs for all you nostalgic folks, and many more features, which will be listed below.
In iFuntastic v2, you could re-arrange your home screen icons, which was cool and all, but now in v3, you can have multiple pages of icons for all your applications that you may install. Also on the home screen, you can now put a wallpaper on there and also rotate to your liking. iFuntastic v3 can also rip the 30-second iTunes Music Store preview for you and upload it to your iPhone as a ringtone. Full list of features below:
* PowerPC support! Finally. Thanks for keeping the faith :-)
* One-time unjailing - called ‘Unshackling’.
* Drag and drop any file onto the phone in the new ‘File Manager’ (formerly Browser :-)
* Edit text files directly on the phone.
* Drag and drop installation of native applications - no restart of the phone necessary.
* Info page: a one-stop-shop for all documentation (still sparsely populated right now, sorry.)
* Troubleshooting page: a one-stop-shop for pummeling the phone and inquiring about its status.
* Much improved ringtone installation.
* Drag and drop replacement of system sounds.
* Completely reworked Home Screen Editor. Place applications anywhere you want them (gaps are OK.)
* Support for multiple home screen ‘pages’. Have up to 80 applications at your fingertips!
* Custom home screen ‘wallpaper’, better called home screen backgrounds, to distinguish from the ‘real’ wallpaper.

Must the iPhone really be fully restored in order for the unshackling to work? Or is it just a recommendation. I’d hate to get rid of all my installing and modding that I’ve done.
on March 25, 2008 at 05:40 AM - LINKHi there and thank you for your great work with iFuntastic. Everything seems to go as planned, but in the last step of the Unshackle I get stuck. I’ve tried it 3 times all over again, I’ve tried to disconnect, I’ve tried to restart, but nothing works. I keep getting the message “Waiting for iPhone ...“ and finally a pop-up saying “STOP-Communication Failure”. Any clues here?
