      Dumb question time.

      I'm a new iPhone owner, so that will be my excuse. Someone explain what exactly "jailbreak" means.

        best explanation



        iOS jailbreaking, or simply jailbreaking, is the process of removing the limitations imposed by Apple on devices running the iOS operating system through use of custom kernels. Such devices include the iPhone, iPod touch, iPad, and 2nd Gen Apple TV. Jailbreaking allows users to gain root access to the operating system, allowing iOS users to download additional applications, extensions, and themes that are unavailable through the official Apple App Store. A jailbroken iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad running iOS can still use the App Store, iTunes, and other normal functions, such as making telephone calls. Jailbreaking is a form of privilege escalation, and the term has been applied to privilege escalation on other computer systems as well.

        Unlike rooting an Android device, jailbreaking is necessary if the user intends to run software not authorized by Apple. A tethered jailbreak requires that the device be connected to a computer each time it needs to be booted; an untethered jailbreak allows the device to be powered without computer assistance. Under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, jailbreaking Apple devices is legal in the United States, although Apple has announced that the practice "can violate the warranty

                    Activator automatically gets download with SBSettings and I use 3G Unrestrictor all the time. Another good app is Iretiner it turns all standard definition apps on the springboard to retina display on retina devices

                        Anybody know how much Apple charges to fix a cracked screen if I were to take it to one of their stores?

                            No, Adobe's abandoned their mobile version of Flash all together.

                                Thanks for the heads up on Jailbreak being available.

                                I've done the unlock for windows and root for android, but the jailbreak for iPhone was by far the easiest... Not that it was hard for the other phones, but it really couldn't be any easier to Jailbreak your phone(I'm just saying that as a note for people who may be intimidated by the idea of "hacking" their phone..).
