Great Tutorials. I just found these tuts a couple of days ago and are now on the way to soon producing top quality iPhone games. I well spoken in the XNA framework from Microsoft for PC and Xbox and Im finding doing graphics programming for the iPhone a pain in the arse compared to XNA. I also had the same error with the black screen after removing the NSTimer but I didnt waist 8 hours looking for the answer. I just turned to an older simulater and having watched the whole video I started reading all the comments for that video thinking I might not be the only one with that problem and surely somewhere in the middle I found the solution to my problem. So maybe you should leave the error in there.. If nothing else then as a little exercise for your viewers :) Great job. Hi there. Great Tutorials.

I will go back and make the changes to stop people getting caught out. Sorry for the late response to your post, I missed the email when you first made it. Mike Hi Serdar

You are absolutely right, this is something I should have changed in the earlier code. I will go back and make the changes to stop people getting caught out.

Sorry for the late response to your post, I missed the email when you first made it.

I did change my project similar to yours and it started not working. Then I downloaded your project and compared and commented my code. Everything was the same but my code did not run because my project target was 3.0. I think you should change the line in download project link too.

It happens fairly randomly and doesn't happen with 2.2.1(ipod touch), also it doesnt happen on the device if it's plugged in. Just curious if you've seen anything like this. Thanks, and I love the tutorials. Mike,
