I don't understand those who spend big bucks on a iPhone, only to turn around and jailbreak it with apps, where it doesn't even hardly resemble an iPhone anymore. Why not stick with Android if one dislikes the OS enough to want to change it all the time? And then many of the jailbreakers complain when Apple betters their OS, because they can't jailbreak and are stuck.
It is like someone buying a BMW, and then taking it to the shop to get completely redone, where it looks like and sounds like a VW Bug on the inside.
As a current Android owner (Note 4 with Gear VR) I sometimes envy iDevice owners because you guys have the ability to use the latest and greatest iOS version the day the update is released. Hanging on to a old software version in the name of jailbreaking is pretty silly.
And when Apple releases iOS 9 with many enhancements are people going to really hang on to iOS 8? It really makes no sense unless the software runs like garbage on old devices.

I just want my phone to work, and thus far, the 3rd party keyboards are working way better... hoping for the rough edges to be smoothed. I used to care a lot about jailbreaking, but with every release of iOS, there has been less and less reason to do so...
After hacking every Android device in the last 5 years I'm pretty much finished with the rooting/unlocked bootloader game. I got tired of "playing" around with my phone instead of "playing" with my phone. I was crack flashing roms every other day until I realized that I was wasting time.
Today I just want stable software running the latest version.
