Welcome to www.ipod-hacks.net! We're aiming to be your top source for iPod information, and the latest updates on iPod hacking. With your help we'll be sure to have all the most up to date and older iPod hacks right here.
Apple today released their updates for the iPod touch and iPhone. On the iPod touch we saw the general updates and one very nice one. It would seem that some people who were experiencing problems with their negative screens don’t have the issue with this update! Yea! Now, this hasn’t fixed everyones, but it has fixed a good number. The only bad side is that the jailbreak might be even slower with this software update. 
For those of you with a Mac, and not afraid to get your hands dirty in the command line, you can use Media Folder tools based on iPhuc to copy files to and from your iPod Touch.
If you have an Intel Mac, use MedUtils.
And if you have a PPC Mac, download the above MedUtils, and then download this copy of iPhuc. Rename iPhuc to “util” and copy it into the MedUtils folder, overwriting the existing file.
Personally, I just gathered up all my flash drives and set them on fire.
As expected, the release of iTunes 7.4.2 has pushed crispSofties into releasing a new version of their iPod.iTunes software for compatibility reasons.
For those of you who don’t know:
“Unlike other iPod copy tools, iPod.iTunes provides real synchronization of MP3/AAC tracks and even playlists entries from your iPod(s) to your Mac(s). iPod.iTunes saves your time because it automatically only copies those tracks which are missing in the iTunes library, excluding duplicates. It provides also an option to build a list of tracks which are not in iTunes and to copy only desired tracks from that list.”
Apple has released a new version of iTunes yet again. The new version will fix an issue with creating ringtones using iTunes Plus song purchases. And it also includes the unrefutable bug fixes to improve stability and performance (translation: report back all your illegal downloads).
That last part was a joke.
…and the music goes on, for those of you love crispSoftie’s iPod.iTunes.
“iPod.iTunes evaluates the source for songs, videos, podcasts and/or playlists that are not in the target and only adds these seamlessly, avoiding duplicates, saving your time. Unlike iTunes’ own synchronization iPod.iTunes generally does not delete content in the target. iPod.iTunes can also transfer song dependend data like “My Rating”, “Last Played”, “Play Count”, album artwork, etc…”
The 3.5 Release notes:
+ Compatibility for iTunes 7.4.
+ Fixed a possible problem regarding the recognition of the iTunes library file.
You know how everyone has been saying that the iPod touch is the iPhone minus the phone? Well it would seem that it’s very true. Many sites have been pointing towards the fact that they may even run the same binaries.
It looks like hacking the iPod touch may be a quick one. If it’s true, it will let iPhone and iPod touch use the same software and wouldn’t that be nice? It would also let iPod touch owners get the mail app that Apple forgot to put in. We will only know on the 27th.
The goal of Mobile RSS is to create a native RSS application for managing your RSS feeds on your iPhone.
“Sick of having to keep RSS feeds as bookmarks on the iPhone? Don’t like having to browse to a website to check your feeds? Ever wanted a native RSS reader on the iPhone?”
“Well this project is here to fix all of that.”
“The goal of Mobile-RSS is to create a native iPhone application which will remember all your feeds and give you an easy interface for viewing, adding, and removing. ”
Although the iPhone isn’t our realm, the Touch is.
