I just started testing firmware 3.0 tonight and I thought I’d share what I’ve noticed so far. I upgraded straight from a jailbroken 2.2 firmware. First, a few things stuck around like my carrier logo. I used MakeItMine to change it from AT&T to ahhyeah and it stuck. Another weird thing is the battery percentage shows up near my battery level. I used to have a hack that made it switch to numbers when tapped on, but now it is next to it and it has a % sign that wasn’t there before. Another huge thing for me was the Emoji keyboard. I was sad I was going to have to go without it, but it stayed too.
All of my personal info stayed so I didn’t lose any messages, notes, etc. Speaking of Messages, that’s the new SMS/Text app, I can’t get MMS (picture messages) yet until I talk with AT&T. I can, however, rotate the entire app. I was thinking it would just be the keyboard but it’s actually the whole app.
There are a lot more sweet things to share but I’m gonna write each feature up as it’s own article. Let me know in the comments if there’s anything you have questions about.
