30-07-08 / 22:06 : Read pdfs offline on the iPhone (cjed) | To read pdfs on the iPhone we have to access the file url from Safari, or open an attached file to an email. With a jailbroken iPhone we can access to the iPhone file system through Ftp transfer (place file in /var/mobile/Media), and then open the file from Safari using an url scheme like file://path.
We can expect soon (when the AppStore will be highly profitable and when a files sign feature has been added to the OS) a firmware update that allows filesystem browse and transfer through USB. For now the limitation (that can be bypassed) prevents massive pirating of AppStore applications and games. | | Comments | Write a comment | |
