rob356 Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 I just got an 8gb iPod Touch. What I want to know is if it is just like the iPhone. Except the cellular radio. So is the Ipod touch just like an iPhone, minus the cellular radio, and phone apps? The reason I ask this is because I think they use similar firmware, because through a terminal command you can launch the phone. (not that I want to do that.) I want to know because when people say it works on the iPhone, does that mean it works on the iPod touch too?

sackie Posted April 11, 2008 Share Posted April 11, 2008 There are more things that are different, like the iPhone has bluetooth which the iPod doesn't. But for the rest they are the same as far as I know, as long as you have the januari apps installed.

Berzerker Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 The iPod Touch does not have MobileSMS.app or MobilePhone.app Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/98671-iphone-like-the-ipod-touch/#findComment-705854 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximus Arelius Posted April 12, 2008 Share Posted April 12, 2008 There are rumors out there that the iPod Touch has Bluetooth built in but it's disabled. They are practically the same minus the Phone and SMS app. The iPod touch even runs OS X which really amazed me. Let it be said that the iPod Touch is a iPhone without the cellar radio. They even had a bug on the iPod touch when then iPod touch was disabled that it said that the iPhone was disabled. Meaning they basically took a iPhone ripped out the cellular radio disabled Bluetooth and dubbed it the iPod Touch.

JSn1™ Posted April 13, 2008 Share Posted April 13, 2008 It is almost the same. Have you ever heard of the iPhone symptom on iPod Touch? Yup, the iPod Touch displays NO SERVICE and Waiting for Activation. All that kind of stuff from the iPhone. Let's say they are quite similar.

Thats if you somehow manage to load iPhone firmware on the touch, as was the case with NateTrue's jailbreak.
