Complete list of supported devices include:

Already tried it on my iPod Touch running on iOS4 and it seems the jailbreak has also solved the problem with the fast-draining battery. Will be doing the same with my iPad later.

Teknisyan · 16 years ago

I guess now that jailbreaking your iphone (other smartphone) has been ruled as legal, people will now try (take risk) this option and jail break their iphones. :)

and people who make such software won’t have to worry from being penalize. yeah..

@Kim
Advantages: Makes your iDevice open source, or maybe not. What I mean is that you are allowed to install “not-so-legal” applications (games and apps that comes with a price, themes, homebrew extensions, etc.) for free. You are also able to explore your iDevice (I’m not sure with the iPad) the same way you explore a normal storage device.

Disadvantages: although not really, it voids your warranty. Kung pumunta ka sa Apple Store para magpa-repair ng something sa iPod mo, tapos nakita nilang naka jailbreak, they blacklist your device’s serial number on their database. Pero madali lang naman i-restore yung pagkakajailbreak, just plug your device to your pc, tapos go to recovery mode.

Isa pang disadvantage, nakakaubos ng memory lalo pag nahilig ka magdownload ng games. :)

Kim Roa Endaya · 16 years ago

@abeolandres and others

what are the advantages of jailbreaking? disadvantages?

I’m currently on iOS 4.0.1 on my 32gb iPhone 3gs…

Jon · 16 years ago

@Sean

Yep. So hold on for a few days maybe. I’ve been following comex et al on twitter, seems that there are a few minor bugs being resolved. So far, it seems, resolved na yung reported bugs.

avoid this jb if on Ipad 3g

Ron · 16 years ago

I have a jailbroken iPhone 3G running on 3.1.2.

Do I just go to http://www.jailbreakme.com and the site will upgrade it to a jailbroken iOS 4.0.1 ? or do I update my iPhone 3G first to iOS 4.0.1 via iTunes then jailbreak it via http://www.jailbreakme.com ?

unlock =)

Sean · 16 years ago

Jon: so meaning if iphone cannot jailbreak from http://www.jailbreakme.com is due to the site is down?

Jon · 16 years ago

Yeah, I was notified by this early in the morning, around 5-6am. The site was down due to the huge number of people jailbreaking their iDevices, now that jailbreaking is considered legal in the US.

It seems to be that there are a few minor bugs though. I’d be holding back until all seems well for me.

I already had my ipad jailbreak when I bought it in greenhills last may. Enjoying cydia apps and theme for my ipad.

Cricket · 16 years ago

I heard it still doesn’t work for iPads? And… I’m not sure if it’s fixed already, but there was a reported bug on iPhone 4’s FaceTime and MMS being disabled after the JailBreak.
