If you want to use Appsync (installd, mobileinstallation patch, etc) on your iPhone you should wait for Dev-Team to release their new tools that support OS 3.1.3. I highly recommend you to wait…
In this guide I want to help you to choose the right firmware for your device with the speed in mind. I already test all firmware from 1.1.4 to 3.2.1 (the latest firmware as I write this article) on my iPhone 2G.
The speed factors are as below:
1.x
There is nothing to say about 1.x family because there is no AppStore on this family, So JUST FORGET IT!
2.x
If you remember the early versions of 2.x family (2.0, 2.0.1, 2.0.2, 2.1) is full of bugs so everyone decide to upgrade to newer version as soon as Apple release them. But by the releases of 2.2 the game changes. It’s stable, fast and accurate in action and also if you jailbreak it, it will bring all the good things that you need to enjoy your iPhone such as AppStore, Copy/Paste (clippy), Video recording (Cycorder), Bluetooth file transfer (iBluetooth), Background application (Backgrounder), etc.
3.x
The main feature of OS 3 is the “Push notification”. Actually there is no more notable things in this version (you can find full list here), all the things that they add to this version was previously resolved by jailbreakers. Beside that if you have to unlock your 2G using any kind of PWNing tools you will lose the Push ability, after that you will found a way called “push fix” by Dev-Team that bring push to your 2G but when you enable it, first of all your device will works very slowly and also you will get lots of false push alerts. The speed impact of the 3.x family on 2G was very ridicules, I think Apple intentionally do this in order to force 2G users to buy an iPhone 3GS. It may also happens because of jailbreaking.
Conclusion
If you want to have a fast iPhone 2G I suggest you to use OS 2.2 (if you already upgrade to 3.x you can easily downgrade it, i will post something about that in near future).
If you upgrade to 3.1.2 :
If don’t upgrade to 3.1.2 (stay on 2.2)
Today I find a new software in AppStore named “iFog”. When I opened it, just find a simple photo of rose flower as below :
But when I puff into the iPhone microphone, wow! iPhone screen covered with fog? It’s really interesting, huh? Now you can write down on it and you may want to play tic-tac-toe with your friends! But the main point of this app was discovered when you write something on the iPhone screen, yes you can’t see what you write but when you puffiFog on Youtube into mic & make some fog your writing appears on the screen as you can see in following screen shot :
if you familiar with the iPhone user interface (buttons, etc) you found that the UI of this app is a bit differ form what you seen before it may be another point of interest for buying this app! But iFog didn’t support Multi-touch, I think they should add this functionality in future updates.
Below you can find a video that demonstrate iFrog:

There is a new version of Installous 2.5. With installous you can easily search through hundreds of cracked AppStore apps then download and install them with a single click! This version of installous is work under OS 3.1.2 (3.x I think).
I can’t find any sufficient change in it’s interface but I think that this version is more stable than previous version. In order to install it you have to add the following repository on your Cydia: http://cydia.hackulos.us

Look at this:
What do you think? Apple can detect cracked ipa! hah!?
Today I got this message while using IM+. I didn’t see any kind of limitation in IM+ after that message but I think jailbreakers have to find a way to resolve this issue. I think it’s time to update the cracking process, Installous, etc.
[iPhone 2G - OS 3.1.2]
Appsync (installd) is now available for iPhone OS 3.1 (& iPod Touch).
Appsync is a mobileinstallation patch for OS 3.x. As one knows in order to install cracked iPA files via iTunes, we need to install appsync (3.x) or mobilesintallationpatch (2.x)
How to install Appsync for OS 3.1
For more information about how to use Appsync please read the following articles:
Users who wants to use Installous, Appsyne, Mobileinstallation patch on their iPhones should wait for the new releases of DevTeam products (Redsn0w, PwnageTool, …) in order to Jailbreak their iPhones.
This week Apple will be all over the news with their announcements at Wednesday’s “Let’s Rock” event. But with so many new owners of the iPhone 3GS, and with so many new owners of the iPhone 3G (perhaps sold to them by these new 3GS owners)…now is a good time to send out this general advisory. If you update to Apple’s new software using the normal iTunes process, you will lose your ultrasn0w unlock. In fact you may lose it permanently, because for most people the baseband firmware cannot be reverted to a previous version (unlike the main application CPU firmware). But don’t worry…our PwnageTool program lets you update your main firmware without touching your baseband firmware, so you can still have the best of both worlds. But you must be diligent about saying “no” to your iTunes request this week to update your firmware.
