Anyone know how to make the phone ring for longer? Mine is going to voicemail after about 15secs

No, not unless you drop it.

I always do but it's a nuisance holding it. I've seen plenty with it strapped to their upper arm with some Velcro gadget.

I've dropped it many a times and I've lost count the number of times I've run over it with the wheelchair. Still working grand.

Is the sky sports app only available in the north? That would be very handy especially with a cable to link it to the tv

would it not be ok to have it in a jacket pocket and have it bonce around in there, cos i couldnt be bothered with that holding it craic?
also is it possible to get earphones for it that go round your ear and thus wont constantly fall out while running?

[ONeill]

You'll not find this in the manual. Woke this morn to find the home button wouldn't work, it wouldn't charge and no mic. Tried everything - the holding buttons craic - restore - etc etc. Thought that's her then, she's banjaxed. Was going to bring her to the store when I tried youtube for one last effort. There was a blade on it and the same thing happened to hers. She says hers mended when it fell out of her pocket and banged on the concrete a few times - it seemed to restore iteself. Well I just flung her across the house, wall to wall, and hey presto! Good as new.

Malicious worm targets jail-broken iPhones

Users of jail-broken iPhones are being warned of yet another piece of malware after the discovery over the weekend of a worm with the ability to steal online banking credentials.

The new 'Duh' malware is likely to be based on the original Ikee worm which was spread a couple of weeks ago by a young hacker in Australia. Both target jail-broken iPhones with OpenSSH installed and the default password intact.

However, security experts have warned that its characteristics are much more malicious, and that hackers are likely to continue to propagate such malware if they can make money from it.

"It is much more serious than Ikee because it is not limited to infecting iPhone users in Australia, and communicates with an internet 'control and command' centre, downloading new instructions and effectively turning your iPhone into part of a botnet," said Sophos senior technology consultant Graham Cluley.

"Furthermore, it appears to be designed to steal information from users of online banking services."

Cluley's colleague at Sophos, Chester Wisniewski, added that the worm appears to be attacking IP ranges from a larger range of internet service providers. He recommended users to restore their phones to the Apple-supplied firmware, or think about choosing a different phone.

"If you want freedom of application choice, perhaps you should consider an Android-based phone rather than hacking your device into a potentially insecure state," he said in a blog post.

"This further demonstrates that iPhones are not ready for the business environment. Apple has made a great effort at preventing people from cracking into their software and unlocking/jail-breaking their devices, but where there is a will, there will always be a way."

Saw that earlier, it is restricted to Holland at present and anyone that does online banking for a specific Dutch bank but they reckon it could spread easily.
