On this occasion, we will try one of the most lucrative when it comes to the Apple iPad : Jailbreak. One issue that raises passions, attacks and defenses, fears and accusations ... like everything that surrounds Apple, this is a topic that is alive and constantly evolving ...
What is Jailbreak?
The jailbreak is a process by which unlock certain features of our IOS device to install the operating system extensions that add or enhance certain features. There are many ways to Jailbreak iPhone, iPhone or iPod Touch as devices and versions. Fortunately, the scene of Apple (the community of hackers and developers trying to take a step beyond the IOS operating system) enjoys great health and is often a matter of time finding the solution to a new version of the system that seems impossible to break.
At present, all devices with IOS Jailbreak they can do, except for the iPhone 4S , but a matter of time and seems to have found the solution. The way to do it, as we have said, varies greatly from case to case, so you should inform yourself properly before beginning the process. This process usually begins by connecting the device to your PC or Mac via USB, run a tool like Redsn0w or Greenpois0n, and after following a few simple steps, just the icon of Cydia on your iPhone desktop, iPhone or iPod Touch. From time to time appear very elegant solutions as JailbreakMe , a website accessed via Safari that from our own device and simply sliding a bar was carried out the process. In this way, the hacker Comex left marveling at all to look forward to Jailbreak to take full advantage of our iPad 2 back in June.
Cydia, the gateway to the world of Jailbreak
From the moment we opened a new world of possibilities in constant evolution. Cydia is based on the use of repositories, some apps and servers that contain operating system upgrades do not do many thanks to Apple. Some of the most iconic extensions allow us to turn on and off the sensors and connectivity of our device from the desktop, make the most of the gelding in IOS originally Bluetooth and change the overall appearance of the system. We can also notice the lock screen, download videos from YouTube, and countless improvements as you can imagine are most useful. In Cydia you can also find many apps that were about to enter the App Store, but Apple rejected because they violated their strict rules.
The most important application is installed via Cydia called Installous . This app can find almost all iPhone applications from the App Store to pay, but free. The process is more tedious than in the official store, but in a minute you will have down the application you want. This comes as the ethics of each one: Do you really sacrifice is both pay 80 cents or 1 euro developers a good app from the App Store for your work?
Jailbreak Clarification
At this point, you're wondering how is this safe and legal. Well, there is a small chance that if you do the steps carefully, your device usable. But you should not panic: you can almost always be fixed by someone with knowledge. On the other hand, the jailbreak process is completely legal and judicial decisions already demonstrated some years ago. However, in doing so you lose the device warranty, but anytime you can restore the system and return to him as if your device had never been changed.
We must clarify here a very common question: There are two types of jailbreak. The tethered us to re-jailbreak the device every time you turn it off, and the unthetered not. Obviously, the latter is more desirable, but is usually not available until several months after the launch of the new version of IOS. However, on second thought, unless we turn off our increasingly mobile, leaving them locked or in airplane mode when not in use and we want to minimize consumption, so the tethered option is not as crazy as it might seem at first. There is a compromise, the semi-tethered, which can restart but will not have access to applications installed via jailbreak until you reconnect the device to your computer.
We also want to clarify that it is not the same free device to make a jailbreak. The first term refers to an iPhone to use with different mobile carriers which provided us with the device. It is usually a process that takes place after the jailbreak with programs like UltraSn0w. Unlike Jailbreak is a very delicate process that we must modify the baseband (modem firmware 3G iPhone to use with the mobile network comuncarse) and that is not easily reversible so that it is not recommended unless you do not have no choice.
Some disadvantages of the iPhone jailbreak
A part of what we discussed, we note here that it is a process that must be performed carefully and only if we are sure to want to. Some people say that the device hangs and is less fluid. Obviously, if full of plugins and apps IOS, everything will slow down, but it seems more a product of the fever that we come to install and test things, that the jailbreak itself. A major disadvantage is that since Apple takes a new version of IOS until the scene releases the corresponding version of the jailbreak, it may take months. Especially if we look for an untethered option, the most comfortable. This is a problem right now about iOS 5 : left 2 months ago and still have a unthetered jailbreak, but is underway.
Conclusion on Jailbreak
We have reviewed some advantages and disadvantages of our iPhone jailbreak. While you lose some performance and stability of the system when started installing extensions and apps at close range, some of the improvements that they can get many users to perform the jailbreak your iPhone, iPhone or iPod Touch just take it out of the box. On balance, we recommend that you carry out the jailbreak if you want to squeeze the most out your iPhone and test new features, knowing that you are going to sacrifice some user experience. With this in mind, most of you do not need jailbreak and still will have a tremendously versatile and powerful device.
