Mediafire gets greedy

I have been an avid mediafire fan since December of '07 and they have remained free and easy to use the whole time, but I guess everyone gets greedy...
I remember when rapidshare was free, megaupload was free, and more.
Then I found mediafire and fell in love with it because it had more features than rapidshare and megaupload... and it was free.
Now that all has changed. Mediafire has gotten greedy and has blocked access to features it used to provide for free such as SSL, Direct DL links, and no ads.
Now you must pay about 70 dollars a year for that.
I guess they feel that it would be worth it for the free users because they get a new GUI for uploading stuff... I only have one thing to say to that; I need a new host for my files.

How to: create ipod.app for ipod touch (including 2.0)

Today I will show you how to change the music and videos icons into one iPod.app.

Step 1a (2.0 only) : Open up /private/var/stash/Applications.uKJtRx

Step 1b (1.1.x only) : Open up /Applications/

Step 2 : Inside you will find Mobilemusicplayer.app (open it)

Step 3 : Copy the info.plist file (download here) to the folder and say yes to overwrite. Now respring (you can use Bossprefs from Cydia)

You're done. Now you have ipod.app

Edit: For those of you having trouble finding stash, then do this:
Go to root, and press ctrl+a then go to commands>clear caches. (This works in WinSCP)
Then, you can just use the Applications folder in the root instead of stash.

Edit: Someone has made an application in Cydia that does this for you (on 2.0) it is called MobileMusicPlayer Flip. It is found in Tweaks.

Jailbreak your iPod Touch or iPhone 2.0

THe iPhone 2.0 software has just recently come out, and for those of you on macs, it is extremely easy to jailbreak your device because pwnage tool 2.0 came out a while back. What I am going to do is explain how to easily Jailbreak your device on a windows computer.
First, you will need a couple things.
1) Winpwn (winpwn.com)
2) ipod/iphone 2.0 software (google this, I cannot provide a link)

Once you have those two things, you will need to open winpwn, and click "build ispw".

This is where it gets a little tricky. If you have an iPod, then continue reading. If you have an iPhone, then I will refer you to iClarified for their guide on iPhones.

So, if you have come this far, then you have an iPod Touch, the new ipod firmware, winpwn 2.0.x, and you have clicked ispw builder.
Now select the firmware file, and check install cydia.
Now click build ispw on the bottom left.
After a little while, your new ispw will be finished, and you can now click iPwner.
Select the file you just created with ispw builder, and it will pwn itunes to accept custom firmware.
Now place your ipod in DFU mode. If you dont know how to do this, then follow these instructions, otherwise skip the next step.

To enter DFU: Make sure your ipod is on. Now hold both sleep and home for exactly 10 seconds. Then, let go of sleep and continue holding home until itunes says it found your device and it must be restored. Your iPod screen should be completely black. If it shows a connect to itunes logo on its screen then you are in restore mode... not DFU.

Now click ok in iTunes and then shift+click Restore. Then select your new custom firmware file... and wait about 15 minutes.
You now have a shiny new ipod touch with cydia!
