Recently famous iPhoneAtlas has published very interesting post concerning all new features of iPhone 1.1.1 Software Update. Guys have published two lists: the list of all official features, documented by Apple, and the list of all undocumented and hidden features of this Update. Both lists are presented below, big thanks to iPhoneAtlas.

New Official features of iPhone 1.1.1 Software Update:

* iTunes Wi-Fi music store
* Louder speakerphone and receiver volume
* Home button double-click shortcut to phone favorites or music controls
* Space bar double-tap shortcut to intelligently insert period and space
* Mail attachments are viewable in portrait and landscape
* Stocks and cities in Stocks and Weather can be re-ordered
* Apple Bluetooth Headset battery status in the Status Bar
* Support for TV Out
* Preference to turn off EDGE/GPRS when roaming internationally
* New passcode lock time intervals
* Adjustable alert volume

Apple also posted a video of the new features included in the iPhone 1.1.1 update.

Undocumented Hidden features, not mentioned by Apple:

* You can now change the sound that is played when a new text message is received. Tap “Settings,” then “Sounds,” then “New Text Message.”
* There is now a “Debug console” for Safari, which shows HTML errors when rendering Web pages. Tap “Settings,” then “Safari,” then “Developer”
* There are new options for Video playback. You can start playing videos where they left off or from the beginning, and you can use closed captioning. Tap “Settings,” then “iPod.”
* iPhone’s email client can now (after the 1.1.1 update) download and play audio files in all QuickTime audio formats it supports, including MP3, AAC and WAV.
* Mail port settings You can now set a custom port for mail servers directly on the iPhone by going to the Mail pane under “Settings,” and selecting your account. Previously you had to set this variable on your Desktop then re-sync the system in order to set a mail port.
* International Keyboard input Though the iPhone doesn’t sport the same ability to select different language keyboards from within the Settings application or switch between international keyboards like the iPod touch, the 1.1.1 update allows the iPhone to bring up certain International keyboard sets automatically when navigating to a Web page encoded in that language. In Mail or a text message, you can press and hold certain keys (like C, or N) for a menu of corresponding international characters.
* H.264 video boost The iPhone can now playback H.264 video at throughput rates up to 2.5 Mbps, 640 by 480 pixels, 30 frames per second, Baseline Profile up to Level 3.0 with AAC-LC audio up to 160 Kbps, 48kHz, stereo audio in .m4v, .mp4, and .mov file formats. Previously the maximum encoding throughput rate for H.264 video was 1.5 Mbps.

The upgrade makes the iPhone’s Safari browser more compatible with various videos on the Web and (presumably) will make more H.264-encoded content available through the YouTube application.

As we know most of iPhone’s jailbreak or unlocking methods and utilities was created for Mac users, so Windows users were very disappointed with such things. But Microsoft’s admirers weren’t left alone in this war, specially for them was created utility called iDemocracy, which helps to semi automate the unlocking process.

The jailbreaking process of Apple iPhone with preinstalled 1.1.1 firmware for Windows users was very time-consuming and complicated procedure. Some times ago Apptapp utility has managed to simplified this process as much as it can, but still iPhone’s 1.1.1 firmware jailbreaking is a tricky process and you will decide to try it, you should read instructions very carefully and follow to every step.

But now has appeared iDemocracy - the only one utility for Windows, that can allow you to jailbreak your iPhone with 1.1.1 firmware.

All you need is Microsoft’s .NET Framework 2.0, Windows XP on your computer and of course Apple iPhone. You can download iDemocracy for Windows from HERE.

The day before yesterday Google mail service Gmail has started IMAP support. What this IMAP support means for average Apple iPhone user? Now iPhone’s mail client called Mail addresses directly to the list of emails on Google server and works with emails remotely instead of downloading them. This essentially saves your traffic. Now I shall tell, how to activate and manage your Gmail account on your iPhone.

For this moment the Russian version of Gmail is not yet connected to IMAP, sorry.

Therefore, go into your inbox on Gmail.com >> Settings >> Change language on English (US). After you will see a new bookmark called Forwarding and POP/IMAP.

Now it is necessary to switch on POP and IMAP.

It’s time to make some adjustments in your Apple iPhone.
Press Settings >> Mail >> Add Account >> Other (not Gmail!!!)

Activate bookmark IMAP, it should become blue. Fill in obligatory fields Name and Address.

Outgoing Mail Server
Host Name: imap.gmail.com
User Name: your full email address on Gmail (for example, apple_iphone@gmail.com)

Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)
Host Name: smtp.gmail.com

Then press Save button (in the right top corner).

In Advanced bookmark check:

Incoming Settings
Use SSL: ON
Authentication: password

Outgoing Settings
Use SSL: ON
Authentication: Password

After that come back to Desktop >> Mail >> And check your Gmail account. You will spend 58Kb of traffic.

One Advice! When you have finished your work in Gmail - log out, this will save more traffic.
