Hey all, I've got a question I haven't actually been able to get a straight answer to.. We've got 2 iPhones in the family, and I was thinking about getting the most out of the iPhones gps capabilities by purchasing the tomtom app which is about $99 in the AppStore. If i buy an app once, can I also install it in my wifes iPhone without paying twice? I've only had experience downloading free apps so I've got no clue about purchasing. Any help would be appreciated!

Hey mate,

Why don't you just JailBreak your iPhone.

And no, the apps are only for one iPhone.

Really?

I've purchased Apps through the App Store before for my iPod Touch and have on many occasions, then gone and downloaded it again to my sister's iPod Touch.

It simply tells me something along the lines of, "You've already purchased this app, would you like to download it again?"

That seems to work as long as you both use the same iTunes/App store account.

Free applications, though most of them are hacked, and some don't even work.. it is illegal as well.. <_<

but hey, I've done it to mine :lol:

Yep free apps.

All my apps are working fine. Just need to go to the right site to download them.

I have two different SatNavs on mine plus road camera traps (just in case). :P

Everyone here at work jailbreaks their iPhone just for the SatNav; haven't met anyone with an iPhone that's not jailbroken yet. :D

Depends what model iPhone you have. If you have the new one; the jailbreak will not permanently jailbreak your iPhone. It kills the jailbreak if you reboot/restart your iPhone. You just have to re-jailbreak again, which works fine.

Usually sites like Appulous but I think their closing down for legal/trolling reasons, not sure.

Here's the link but I'm not sure how much luck you'd have:

Give that a try, you'll need to download something called redsn0w to jailbreak it though, just make sure you follow the instructions carefully

Thanks, but the guy who runs appulous has shut down shop.

this whole jailbreaking concept seems kinda scary... i dont just want to go to any random site and download a program that may alter my iphone if im not 100% sure what its meant to be doing.

Hey matey,

I jailbroke my first iPhone 3G & its was great for three or so months & then i had to do a reset & thats when it did the BIG software upgrade,Now I've got the 3G-S this will stay factory & is both phones are using the same itunes account,there is a Home sharing setting in iTunes that makes all your Apps 'sharable'

Good luck & Street Fighter 4 would be a recommended one for the iphone fanatics!

be careful with jail breaking your iphone though, if apple find out, they brick your iphone, and its gameover :(

sf4 on iphone? i've seen it, i can't believe such graphics can be played on the iphone!

I didn't know Apple could track jailbroken iPhones/iTouches. Apple can only continuously release "patches" which will break the jailbreaking. Reverting back to normal is as easy as restoring an official firmware back on. =)

      1999 Camry Driver's door locking hatch issue

      It's possible that it could be something fouling or dirt build up, dry, or a broken mechanism, so have a look and give the mechanism some lubrication, most likely though, it'll be the actuator. I found one for a good price on Ebay, $25 delivered: Front Door Lock Actuator Right Side For Toyota Camry 1997-2001 | eBay

      Query about the correct rotors for 2006 ACV40 Camry.

      Hi, I'm looking at a set of front rotors for an ACV40 2006, 2.4L Camry. I got a good price on some RDA's at Sparesbox. However both RDA8112 and RDA7686 show as for my car and I'm wondering what the difference is and if there were changes to the rotors during the model production. So does anyone know which rotor is the correct one? Many thanks in advance.

      It's a simple solution though? Already laying down 60k for a RAV4, so what's another 1k on a phone to make everything work seamlessly? 👍

      Your solution is akin to suggesting that switching to a different car manufacturer would resolve the issue. However, not everyone shares the same enthusiasm for using an iPhone as you do.

      Turboed Corolla Overbuilt?

      that engine will be fine, the rods are the main thing to be concerned about. The 2860 is a decent turbo for the 1zz but in this day and age I'd go for a G25-550. The injectors might be on the small side, we run DW1000's. You need a full length injector, the shorter injectors with adaptors like ID1050x dont fit the 1zz head. You don't need an aftermarket intake manifold, if you do go down that path, avoid the CNC innovations unit, it's garbage. Do the boost control with a MAC valve and control it with the aftermarket ECU of your choice, I use Link stuff on most of my builds with the G4x Storm as the minimum. I also wire a fuel pressure sensor and oil pressure sensor to the ECU in my installs. Use a decent intercooler, the better cores (ARE, PWR, Garrett, Vibrant, Plazmaman, Hypertune) work a lot better than the chinese stuff like Aeroflow. a 450x250-300 fits fairly well with custom end tanks to route the cooler pipes through next to the radiator Don't forget about the clutch and gearbox. These days I like the Uniclutch twinplate, Above 300whp you'll want to think about upgrading the 3rd and 4th gears in the box also with the SSC (Hollinger) gear set and install an LSD of your choice. If you're going to give it a hard time, you'll also want an oil cooler. I like the HKS thermostat type sandwich plates and setrab or mocal oil coolers with -10 speedflow fittings/lines (Chinese AN fittings neck down to a lot smaller internal diameter in their bends, not great for flow) You'll also want to think about brakes, Celica or Sportivo front calipers will bolt on with sportivo discs as a starting point. To have somewhere like Tunehouse do the work you'll want to budget somewhere between 20-40K

      Camry Touring 2010 Fuel consumption 15.2L/100km. Normal?

      I did the mathematics myself regarding costs vs benefits for fuel injector cleaner. I have changed from 91ULP to 95PULP and 98PULP. Price difference can be about 13 -20 cents. Compared to 91ULP, Premium quality fuel should have a better quality additive package designed to have superior engine cleaning capabilities so the engine can perform at their best.

      "Fuel injector cleaner is a waste of money" Only if you by the cheap crap if you use LiquMolly a German Product it does work and you won't waste your Money.
