Can you jail break it? Also its power button and volume button is out of order. How much might it cost to fix it? Its camera app isnt working so that I cant take any more pictures or videos. How much might it cost to fix that?
You could fix it yourself. I've replaced power, and home buttons on iPhone 4's. Not terrible, but not a walk in the park. Or, you could get a fully working used iPhone 4 for $50 on Swappa. Seems like that would be the easier option if you must have an iPhone 4. Otherwise, I'd just cut the losses and jailbreak it. You could use Zephyr to replace the home button, it's a pretty cool tweak. Or use activator or assistive touch for power and home since it's on iOS 5. Assistive touch needs no jailbreak by the way. Just go to the accessibility settings and turn it on.
Wow, only $50? Can you get a fully working used Android phone that has as good a pixel density as iPhone 4 for around that price? You cant use assistive touch to capture the screen on the iPhone 4 though.
What are some things you can do with jailbreak? Does it appear to be faster even with the 5 update from the original 4 OS? Can you use a blue filter for everything? ---------- Can anyone explain how to jailbreak? I downloaded jailbreak but I don't know how to proceed.
