Pretty cool, but I never viewed Jailbreaking as "in your face Apple", more like hackers paradise.
 
At a glance, I know emoji can be had even without a jailbreak, so that leaves us with 99 reasons. ;)

IOW:

If you ain't jailbreakin' I feel bad for you son,
I got 99 reasons, but emoji ain't one.

Hit me!


Peace! We out!
 
I saw this earlier on TUAW and because of that I found that Barrel app.
I never seen this one before but it is awesome :eek:
Went and bought it right away.

Yeah, replace that with COLOR PROFILES and we're back at 100 :p

Add ANY RINGER and now we're at 101 !!! lol

And, if you've got INFINIDOCK, it's incomplete without CASCADE !!
 
Yeah, replace that with COLOR PROFILES and we're back at 100 :p

Realize that replacing your boot screen or making your keyboard a different color aren't actually "reasons" to do anything and you're back at 98.


And I'm not even going to get into features like "view your calendar" which I'm pretty sure you can do on any iPhone.

Let's just say that there seems to be some padding going on with this list.

Well, Color Profiles is a very good reason to JB because it fixes the ' yellow tinted ' screens to a cool blue!!
 
Why is this topic news? The purpose and benefit of JB'ing your iOS device hasn't changed in a very long time. If you ask me this video comes years too late.
 
Re:

I have an iPhone 4, 16GB. I need to first unlock it. Can anyone guide me how do I do this?
 
There have always only been a couple compelling reasons for me to jailbreak. I've done it on every iPhone except the newest one I have. I think I prefer stability over anything. I've been met with some issues in previous jailbreaks that make it more annoying than anything.
 
What people claim is the reason they jailbreak:

And it´s 100% safe. Yes, clearly no one has had any problems with it :D :apple:

The real reason people jailbreak: installous

The result of your "custimaztion" options:

But a b*tch ain't one....

(name the artist who said that)

Edgy, you can name the lyrics of one of Jay-Z's biggest songs, and I believe the lyrics are actually "If you're having girl problems I feel bad for you son, I've got 99 problems but a bitch ain't one."

----------

if that's how they want their phone to look and function, why should you care?

if you're saying "In your face" to apple, I'd make sure yours didn't look like something Windows Me vomited up.
