FRAGEN


I have an iPhone 4 and I've been thinking about jailbreaking it, but I'm not sure about the advantages and disadvantages. If I decide to, what is the best program to use? Are there risks? Will it delete all my data and can I unjailbreak it? Any info would be greatly appreciated, thanks!


Answer
Cons:
1. Lag. It's usually not even noticed unless you're using an older iPhone model. I notice that stock apps take about 1 second longer to open, but that's about it.
2. Battery life might be slightly decreased.
3. You can't hit that update button in iTunes the second it appears. Well, you can, but you might temporarily lose your untethered jailbreak, so it's best to wait. If you do this anyway and then decide you want to roll back the firmware, you can do that as long as you have your SHSH saved. They are automatically saved after the first one.

Pros (There are a lot more than this. These are just some of the highlights):
1. The freedom to do things outside the scope of an application and the ability to install apps that were not approved for the App Store for various reasons.
2. Fast access to settings toggles.
3. Full access to the file system.
4. Customization and themeing.
5. Custom gestures and buttons for features, such as a springboard pinch to activate the flashlight and double tap the lockscreen clock to open phone favorites.
6. Managing photos and videos on the iPhone (create folders without iTunes).
7. Enhancing stock apps. Add a download manager to Safari, save attachments in email, add a download feature to YouTube, pull to refresh Safari, access WiFi only apps, such as FaceTime, on 3G, and add a navigate button to Maps (opens in Navigon or TomTom).
8. Live weather on the lockscreen and springboard.
9. Accelerate animations in the GUI.
10. Add more folder options and improve the task switcher.
11. Enable iOS direct printing (AirPrint) for non-supported printers.
12. Bluetooth media file transfers to and from other phones.
13. Better text messaging apps. Send and reply to texts on the lock screen and from within apps.
14. Action Menu customizations. This adds additional functions, such as favorites, dial and to bottom, to the stock cut, copy and paste functionality.
15. Add a user agent faker toggle so you can quickly switch between mobile and full site website browser user agents.
16. Free tethering.
17. Managing music without iTunes.

With that being said, if you do decide to jailbreak your device, you can do it by going to this link:

You would jailbreak it with Redsn0w. It will not delete all your data, but you should backup your device before you jailbreak it, just in case something goes wrong. You can only unjailbreak by restoring your device with iTunes.

I'd recommend jailbreaking your device. Mine is jailbroken, and I'm glad I did it.

How come I can't receive pictures in my unlocke iPhone 4 with simple mobile?




its me aga


I purchased a factory unlocked iPhone so it doesn't have Cydia

Anyways i can send pictures but I can't receive them I get a message that says The media content was not included due to a picture resolution or message size restriction.

So please help me! My friends always send me pictures but I can't receive them and it's really starting to annoy me!



Answer
simple solution is

Go to appstore and then go to the search tab and search for blutooth photo share or something like that and then install it and now you can easily share images.

There is another soltion which involves jailbreaking your iphone.

Jail break your iphone throught limera1n(Jailbreaking has been legalized, just google if you dont trust me)

Folllow the below steps :

Step 1 download limera1n to jailbreak : http://www.limera1n.com

Step 2 Connect your iphone to the computer and start limera1n and follow the onscreen instructions.

Step 3 once done you should see an alert on the computer saying "your iphone has jailbreaked successfully" wait for the iphone to restart and if it doesnt then do it manually.

Step 4 now you should be able to see limera1n application on your iphone, just launch it and instal cydia

Step 5 Now that cydia has been downloaded and installed just open it and for the first time it will close automatically, that is normal

Step 6 Launch cydia again and search for ifile or ibluenove in the search tab

Download and install it and now using ibluenova you can share pictures, vidos, songs not only through iphone ipod but also to any phone like nokia , samsung etc
