streets. Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 I want to Jailbreak my phone - so I need a few questions answered 1 - How safe is it? is there a high chance of my phone f*ck*ng up? 2 - If the jailbreak doesnt go as planned can I change it back? 3 - Can someone on VIP2 do it for me? I'm sure that with Google I could figure out how to do it myself, but I simply can't be bothered. Thanks, Streets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest FA23 Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 1) There is basically no risk, 99% safe. 2) you can restore back to normal in itunes if you must 3) probably but you shouldnt need to. / http://www.youtube.com/user/DinoZambas2 < nice resource for all things jailbreak.

J. Edgar Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 Why do u wanna jailbreak it and make it run slower? your better off getting the SDK and installing your 3rd party apps from there 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J. Edgar Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 It clutters the main memory with bloated codes which will in effect make you have to reboot your phone every so often. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jcee Posted April 28, 2011 Report Share Posted April 28, 2011 When jailbroken, you can also overclock your iPhone 4 with Speed Intensifier. Mine runs at some warp speed, quicker than other iphone 4's. Slow? No chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aza T Posted April 29, 2011 Report Share Posted April 29, 2011 People are speculating the new iPhone will be released this summer / september. Using a 3GS at the moment, I can upgrade to iPhone 4 now but I'm going to wait. Jailbreaking > ___________. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
