Jailbroken is jailbroken...

It basically allows you to do things apple doesn't want you doing, like putting non approved apps on (be it cracked, or just non approved) a good example is the iPhone 2g, and 3G, never had video cameras on them, a jailbroken phone will let you download an app to use the still camera to record videos...

My iPhone 4, is locked to Rogers, but because it's jailbroken, I can download a package (similar to an app) that unlocks it, and let's it be used on any carrier, I can also use FaceTime over 3G, (it requires wifi normally) I can download apps that are larger than 20mb, over 3G, and a multitude of other things, like creating a wifi hotspot with my phone (stock you can only do USB or Bluetooth)

That's why I was asking. You guys were talking about different versions of jailbroken and to me that's foreign language. But thanks for the info guys.

well, the iphone has 4 generations, 2g, 3g, 3gs and 4, there is also ipod touch, ipad, and ipad 2... but all of them run different versions of the ios, they are spesific to the device... as in you can't install the ipad version, on the ipod touch, or the iphone, and the 2g version won't go on the 3g...

if you're jailbreaking your own phone, what ever program you download will walk you through it... if you are paying someone to do it (the easy way) then you don't need to worry about it

i've got my iphone 4 running jailbroken 4.1.3, (needs to be updated to 4.2 desparately, so i can use some of the new apps like "find phone")



i think my buddy used blackra1n for mine, but i'm not 100% sure, mine is still "locked" but jailbroken...

adroidlockxt imo, a must!
infiniboard had it on my 3g, but not my 4
MyWi 4.0 is a must to have, works well for me
Tlert (a lot like bite sms but works better IMO) i use bitesms with no issues, might check out tlert
3g unrestrictor a must!

i've also got:
winterboard (of course)
sbsettings (swipe sideways on status bar for lots of toggle switches to change things)
caller id faker (allows you to change your voice, record calls, and change your outgoing caller id to ANYTHING, on outgoing calls only)
emoji (smilies)
FolderEnhancer (makes the folders 10x better)
iBlacklist (allows you to block unknown, restricted, or spesific numbers from your phone, my cellphone company is on my short list of blocked numbers lol)

and a multitude of others like winterboard

so these are all 100% free right? what are you guys usin to unlock your iphones

They are usually cracked versions of the app. So they are free.

I don't remember what I used to jailbreak my phone. Just google jailbreak iPhone 4.3.1 or whatever iOS you're running right now

cool. gonna jailbreak it? or wait till the warranty is up? 1yr. if you jailbreak it, you lose your warranty. and even if you restore it, apple can tell.

cool. gonna jailbreak it? or wait till the warranty is up? 1yr. if you jailbreak it, you lose your warranty. and even if you restore it, apple can tell.

The Supreme Court ruled last year that Apple couldn't void the warranty for any product because of jailbreaking.

Besides, if you restore it Apple can NOT tell it has ever been jailbroke. Jailbreaking is a software break in the iOS. Once the original iOS was installed there is no trace of a previous jailbreak.

www.jailbreakme.com is the absolute EASIEST way to jailbreak an iPhone. It performs the jailbreak from Safari on the iPhone. No need to download any special programs on your PC/Mac and create custom firmware. Just go to the website in Safari on your iOS device (iPhone, iPad, iPod Touch) and hit the "Jailbreak" button on the site. Currently it works with the current iOS.

well then, learn something new...

i knew the supreme court ruled that apple could not say it was illegal to jailbreak it. the other, i was lied to about lol.

jailbreakme.com is awesome on the iOS's that it works for... it won't work on my old 3g for some reason. oh well. its easy to do it tho.

i knew the supreme court ruled that apple could not say it was illegal to jailbreak it. the other, i was lied to about lol.

They issued a DCMA modification saying they could not honor the warranty if the device came in for repair jailbroken.

jailbreakme.com is awesome on the iOS's that it works for... it won't work on my old 3g for some reason. oh well. its easy to do it tho.

Probably because the old 3G's can't upgrade to the newest firmware and the vulnerability that Jailbreakme.com uses is not in the latest 3G iOS.

that's what i did.. i actually had to restore mine once b/c i messed it up from playing around on cydia and junk.

that is why you ALWAYS back up your photos and stuff before jailbreaking.. lol

 

[86 slo-vo]
