Hacked and upgraded my iPhone September 3, 2007

Last night I decided to extend my iPhone’s functionality with a few goodies.
The first thing was to hack the iPhone.
Then I added Hebrew fonts to Safari & the built in RSS reader. The lack of Hebrew support was one of my biggest pains with the iPhone and with the ability to read a few Hebrew web sites (not all sites render properly) things are a little better, although I am still waiting for the full native Hebrew support.
The next thing was to add several applications and personalize the device with a custom ringtone. I installed iBrickr on my computer and use it to manage my iPhones apps, ringtones etc.
Among the applications that are currently installed on my iPhone you can find:
- Communication applications: Apollo IM & Twitterrific
- Games: Light Off and a few Nintondo retro games running on the NES emulator
- Utilities: VoiceNotes & the text editor Scribe
- Configuration Utilities (launch and manage the iPhone applications): Launcher & recombinant SpringBoard arranger
- and my favorite utility, the Dock, which brought the famous Mac OS feature to the iPhone
