3.0 beta. Not going so well.

March 19th, 2009

It’s a little hard to test when something as simple as a reboot completely hoses the device.

Oh and iTunes won’t restore it either. So, it’s either time to try and use a Dev team app to restore it or time to go to the apple store for a replacement.

Either way – this sucks.

Waitin on Apple

March 18th, 2009

Well, here we are – over a week in the review process (8+ days) and so far I finally have the approval emails for gCalWall and gCalWall Lite version 1.2 but they haven’t shown up on the store. Heck gCalWall still shows “in review” even though it’s been approved.

This is bugging me.

My First iPhone App – gCalWall – just got approved!

February 22nd, 2009

gCalWall

My first iPhone app just got approved for sale in the AppStore! I’m frickin excited! Talk about a long process though. Longer for me than many others I’m sure because it took a lot of reading and a lot of learning, but I got it done so the goal has been achieved.

More important than just the app, I guess this validates for me that you can teach an old dog new tricks… a couple months ago the closest I’d come to programming in many, many years was some simple VBScript stuff, and the minor bit of PHP/HTML I have to maintain at JAMM. So, naturally I need to send a HUGE thanks out to all the folks who have taken the time to write tutorials for beginners, the folks who’ve written the books (specifically Erica Sadun, Dave Mark/Jeff LaMarche), and everyone whose taken time to reply to noob questions on forums. There’s a serious wealth of information out there for a beginning programmer and its all come to life in a matter of months – so THANKS!

Alright, almost done with my shameless plug. I’m really looking forward to sharing this experience with everybody as its been very exciting, from the learning a whole new language, thinking through how things should work, writing the code, troubleshooting and beta testing… There’s a ton of stuff to cover so keep an eye on the site as I’ll be covering a lot of that stuff very soon.

gCalWall goes on sale on Wednesday the 25th (I’ll post a link when it goes up) … but for now here’s some more information on the app! I’ll be posting a video demo of the app on Wednesday (on that page) as well so you can see how it works. Alright … I’m off to go do a happy dance!

Quick Note: Don’t pay for iPhone unlocking

January 4th, 2009

Quick note to anyone who doesn’t know yet… This:

Hi

I can unlock all iPhones. All 1-st, 2-nd and 3G’s!!! I use software unlock only. Newest firmware 2.2. with cydia and installer.

I have unlocked over 17 3G’s in the past 3 days and they all work perfect for t-mobile and other carrier. I have unlocked my own 3G and Its working smooth as butter with my t-mobile sim. I’m a professional at what I do and I do it the right way. You can wait in my house while I unlock your iPhone. Call me if interested. After I unlock your iPhone you can always call me if you have any questions I’ll be glad to help.

Is bullshit. DO NOT PAY someone $25 or more to unlock your iPhone v1 or 3G. They are just using the same software you can get for free from: the iPhone Dev Team

Via Craigslist (PS. Please do not call this guy…)
