Author Topic: Jailbreaking  (Read 1709 times)

I have an iPhone 4, and I was interested in jailbreaking it. I'm just pretty scared to.
So, I have questions:
1) Should I jailbreak it?
2) If something goes wrong while jailbreaking, what could happen?
3) Is this a good tutorial video to use?

I have no warranty, by the way.

1) Depends.
2) Most of your stuff could be deleted, but it would probably be on iCloud anyway.

1) Yes
2) Worst thing that could happen? You would have to reset your phone via itunes. You would lose nothing.
3) I dont see why not.

If you've got iOS 6, don't bother. Apple made sure that jailbreaking would mess it up good. They also made it impossible to downgrade. I literally tried it a week ago. After some tampering it finally worked, but then YouTube stopped working. The Cydia apps cost money anyway.

Apple is no fun at all.

1) Yes.
2) The worst that happens is you have to factory reset it and lose whatever content you have saved to your device. However, jailbreaking is pretty simple, and the chances of you loving something up that bad are slim.
3) Looks fine to me.

I have iOS 6.
Butttt, the video I showed was for iOS 6.

It's also still tethered, which means when you boot it up normally, the Cydia app doesn't disappear, it shows up but crashes immediately.

But why does it work in the video if he uses the same thing? :(

My iPod is jailbreaked and I love it

I've made my own themes and programs, SSHed onto it and a lot more
It's literally a small computer now

Double post

because its tethered
If your iPod reboots it doesn't work, it's better to wait that they find an exploit to make it untethered

Tethered does work if you reboot. Just hook it up to your PC, follow the directions you used to boot it tethered the first time and you're good.
Or, don't let it die. I jailbroke my iPhone, and it has iOS 6. Yeah, some of the Cydia apps don't work, but I only use a few.

A majority of them don't.

If I jailedbroke it tethered, and I never let the battery die, I wouldn't have problems with re-jailbreaking?
I'm still scared to but I really want to, gah.
