- Part 1.Should I jailbreak my iPhone
What is the iPhone jailbreak
Only 10-15 percent of all iPhone users have their iPhones jailbroken, what should this tell us? Some may say that jailbreaking is not such a big thing that is why so many iPhone users don’t use it. I think that most of them do not even know what jailbreaking is and what it involves, and is normal to consider useless or to be afraid of something we don’t know. Imagine an animal from a zoo, locked all its life behind bars, that never seen wildlife, but who’s basic needs are properly taken care of so its living a happy life after all. That’s your iPhone on stock firmware, and the jailbrooken iPhone is the animal that runs free into the wild .The same differences are between an iPhone on stock firmware for which Apple limited the possibilities of applications/games that you can install ,the way you can make your iPhone look/sound (wallpapers ,themes, ringtones etc.), and many other bothering restrictions and a iPhone jailbroken that can mooded as you like, and can get to its full potential. You probably guessed I have a jailbroken iPhone, and I am of jailbreak supported. If you are a sustainer of using the iPhone with its stock firmware would really appreciate to hear why is that, who knows maybe if you have strong arguments you may convince me or others about why is better not to jailbreak your iPhone. Also if you are still not convinced after reading the article, or have any question concerning iPhone jailbreaking, do not hesitate to ask.
5 best things you can get after jailbreaking your iPhone
1.Cydia-this is the jailbreak community version of Apple Store, from here you can buy, but mostly you can get for free applications, games, themes , wallpapers , ringtone ,basically whatever you need for making your iPhone better looking , faster and more entertaining
2.Winterboad- help you customize your iPhone looks, you can change iPhone icons, customize applications, status bar graphics, iPhone dock graphics, install themes ,change wallpapers and even modify your iPhone sounds
3.Unlocking-many iPhone users don’t make a clear difference between jailbreaking and unlocking.Is true that these are interconnected, because if you want to unlock your iphone you must jailbreak it first, but beside that are totally different. By unlocking the iPhone a user could use the iPhone with any carrier he likes.
4.Great tweaks and enhancement-Apple blocks sending /receiving files using Bluetooth to/from other phones , tethering(sharing the Internet connection of an iPhone with other devices),unlimited folders, landscape lock screen, Bluetooth Keyboard ,browsing all iPhone files etc., but all this, and much more is possible after you jailbreak your iPhone.
5. Installous- A application that install any game or applications from all sources possible , that you could had never installed using iTunes
Is jailbreaking dangerous? Can i brick my iPhone? Does it damage warranty?
First of all, many users are afraid that jailbreaking his device is illegal, that is why they aren’t thinking of doing it. Both jailbreak and unlock are legal in USA and in most civilized countries. If you don’t believe me google it or ask a attorney.
Jailbreaking is not a permanent thing, each time you restore or update using a stock firmware your iPhone will be as new, nobody will be able to say your iPhone was ever jailbroken. So I think this answers the question about voiding your warranty , if you ever have any problem just update your iPhone and no Apple specialist will be able refuse your iPhones warranty. This also shows that jailbreaking is a risk free operation, you can try it , and if you don’t like it (even though I doubt that ) you can go back to stock firmware, no applications, contacts, messages, music etc. will be lost if the iPhone is synchronized with iTunes.
If is dangerous? This questions deserves a more complex answer. Is a knife dangerous, for those who don’t know what they are doing and use it carelessly can be dangerous, but you will find it in any kitchen. It’s the same with jailbreaking, you should jailbreak only after a detailed research about how to jailbreak, what to do and what not to do when jailbreaking and after jailbreaking. With the newest tools available now is almost impossible to damage your device, but do it with caution anyway. Even if you do something wrong ,most important is not to panic, wait until the process ends ,never stop it, then if your device is not responding ,a simple restore should fix it .I have jailbroken hundreds of iPhones, and none was bricked.
Part 1.Can I jailbreak my iPhone
Jailbreaking is done based on a exploit in a firmware’s security that allows the iPhone hackers get to the iPhone root .What should be remembered from this a bit technical sentence is that jailbreak depends of your firmware and of the device model .To find out your iPhone firmware and model can use one of these three methods presented here http://iphonetounlock.com/publ/iphone_general/3_ways_to_find_out_your_iphone_firmware_and_baseband/4-1-0-7
There are 2 types of jailbreak, tethered and untethered. A tethered jailbreak requires that the device to be connected to a computer each time it needs to be booted, while untether jailbreak does not require that .Normally is better to have an untethered jailbreak, but folks that really want a jailbreak also use the tether jailbreak when an untether one is not out yet. Now all iPhones can be jailbroken on all firmwares , except Iphone 4gs .Bellow is presented the jailbreak type available now and the jailbreak program I recommend to use:
-Firmware 3.1.2-3.1.3 -untether jailbreak use redsn0w 0.9.4
-Firmware 4.0-4.3.3–untether jailbreak use redsn0w 0.9.9.b8
-Firmware 4.3.3-5.0.1-tether jailbreak use redsn0w 0.9.9.b8
