As you know, I slaved away to fix a few broken iPhone 3Gs that I'd come across.
Well, after swapping out a battery and taking the iPhones into 40 pieces and putting one back together using the other's logic board, I put Ultrasn0w onto the one and suddenly it worked beautifully. Perfectly. I loaded up apps and contacts and songs. I went around the block checking-in everywhere on Foursquare.
Delighted, I took the new Frankenphone out to play yesterday. We went to SVA, to West 4th, to a restaurant on Bleecker, and to the Magnolia Cafe.
The phone was so fun and perfect compared to my original 2G iPhone.
Except for one thing.
The part where you can make and receive calls?
Doesn't work.
Back to the drawing board.
