... is here. Painless installation on my 3G (I was expecting the
worst). *Seems* a little faster: settings comes up in 3 secs, camera
in 4 (+/- 2 as I was using the wristwatch to time it). As to whether
it's done anything for the iPh-4, I'm sure one of you will let us
know.

Complete mess on my iPhone 4. "Unknown error: 1004". Phone now stuck in
recovery mode, and having a hell of a job getting it working again.

Aha! It was because I'd modified /etc/hosts to update iOS 3 via Saurik's
repository. Even though I'd only jailbroken a different phone using a
different operating system I still got problems. All sorted now.

As to whether there's any difference in performance, I can't say I've noticed
anything yet.

Presumably the iPh4 is fast enough that you wouldn't have noticed any
performance problems anyway, but has it helped with the holding-the-
phone-kills-the-signal problem?

The word on the web is "no, but it wasn't intended to". It was more to
stop it misrepresenting the signal strength indicator bars. If you were
getting dropped calls before, this won't have cured it.
