Title: I got a new smartphone
Post by: Ampera on May 16, 2016, 05:05:00 pm
(Still in mail, will post pictures when it arrives)

Yes for 30 dollars I got

an IPhone 3G
Otter Case (Probably worth 30 dollars if it fit another phone)
and a charging cable

I plan to put Whited00r on it and use it like a PDA (IPod touch sorta thing idk how else to describe it) without a data or phone plan.
It's unlocked with 8GB of memory.

It's the first smartphone ANYONE in this household has ever had XD...

Well, at least it's something lol, the otter case won't fit anything else aside from a 3gs. I had an iphone 3 up until yesterday morning, and while it used to be good when you could jailbreak them, it's god awful now and was getting slower and more buggy daily.

You shouldn't have any trouble jailbreaking that one though.

I'm not jailbreaking it.

I'm replacing the entire goddamn firmware.

New OS new everything, look up Whited00r.

It's basically putting the features (Without software compatability) of IOS 7 onto old iphones
