So many memories...

I ditched work on the release date, so I could be one of the first to buy it near my location. All my friends and strangers were jealous and asked me how I managed to get it. It's my most used iPhone along with the 3GS, even though I've had other phones in between that I've returned. The best part was learning how to jb iOS 9.3.3, my iPhone felt like a whole new phone again! The most entertaining experience with any smartphone ever. I've owned an iPhone 7 (my daily phone) since the end of 2016, but kept my jb iPhone 6 around but it's time to sell it. I've been emotionally attached to it because of the jb tweaks, but it's become very buggy and problematic over the last 10 months. This morning it attempted to lock me out and all sort of stuff. I managed to open it without losing my stuff, but I think it's a sign. I've only used it for saving snaps and instastories, that's not enough reason to keep it. Better I sell it assp and earn some money that I can add to my bill once I order iPhone x, lol.

So your going to sell a buggy, and according to you, “problematic” phone? Hopefully you tell the buyer, in which case I don’t see how you’ll get much for it.

That's too bad.

Typical of the semi-tethered jailbreaks.

I've been two years on 9.0.2 with a jailbroken 6s+. Still going strong as my primary phone with over 200+ tweaks.

But I have a fully untethered jailbreak.

Nah, all the new owner has to do is DFU restore/upgrade as new. Wipes the jailbreak and gives them a fresh phone.

Jailbreaks aren't forever.

Calm your ti*ts, it's buggy because of the jb not the phone itself

Exactly. Finally, someone who knows their stuff :)

Lucky yours is fully untethered. I just transfered all my files and ready to clean it up so I can sell it. Are you still using your 6+ as your main device?

Jail breaking is still a thing?
No, that's why it's time to reset lol!

Actually, it's a 6s+ but yes. This is the longest I've had an iPhone go without issues and the longest I've ever been on one jailbreak (two years and counting).

Oh, wow. That looks amazing, I love the setup. Too bad jb died after iOS 10, it's such a shame. Imagine all the things you'd be able to do with the iPhone x.
