Easy Stuff

• Virtual buttons have been "put down" in favor for such a combination (subject to change):

Tap Home Button -> Menu.

Hold Home Button 1s -> Home screen.

Hold Home Button 3s (or however long is standard in Android for this) -> Task Switcher.

Lock Button -> Back.

Hold Lock Button -> Sleep.

This is just a suggestion for anyone intending to do this.

Firmware Extraction: Simple extractor + injector to add firmware to images

   3.x.x Firmware locations:
       /private/var/stash/share/firmware/multitouch/iPhone.mtprop
       /usr/share/firmware/multitouch/iPhone.mtprops 
       base64 encoded

   2.x.x Firmware:
       Run as root on iPhone, over SSH:
       (Requires iokittools, coreutils, vim)
       REVISED to avoid ugly hard-coded byte offsets:
       -
       ioreg -l -w 0 | grep '"Firmware" =' | cut -d '<' -f2 | cut -d '>' -f1 | xxd -r -ps - zephyr_main.bin
       ioreg -l -w 0 | grep '"A-Speed Firmware" =' | cut -d '<' -f2 | cut -d '>' -f1 | xxd -r -ps - zephyr_aspeed.bin

DNS issue

A couple people in IRC were mentioning it, although I wasn't really sure what they were talking about, as I didn't have it running on my phone yet. After I did get it running, I saw that DNS didn't work on the browser, and realized what they were talking about.
