iPhone YouTube Troubles

When I have problems with software or hardware, I usually start by searching on Google and finding dozens of solutions on different blogs and forums. Of course, in each forum there about a dozen solutions that you have to try for yourself also. I have an iPhone unlocked using SimFree 1.7 and here is the simple solution to activating YouTube on your unlocked phone after receiving this message:

“You must first connect to iTunes with an internet connection to enable YouTube.”

These instructions assume that you have the “Installer” application (from jailbreakme.com) on your iPhone.

  1. Go to Installer
  2. under Sources folder, install Community Sources
  3. Under System folder, install BSD Subsystem
  4. in Sources icon (still in installer), add this source i.unlock.no
  5. Under Unlocking Tools folder, install YouTube Activation
  6. Restart

  2. The new Zune browser is surprisingly good, but not as good as the iPod’s. It works well, but isn’t as fast as Safari, and has a clunkier interface. If you occasionally plan on using the web browser that’s not an issue, but if you’re planning to browse the web alot from your PMP then the iPod’s larger screen and better browser may be important. Have you tried the ipad? you can get one free at FreshGiftCard.com

    It’s a useful write-up, not that hard to be able to read. Thanks for putting aside time to write about your own musings.
