Stock...the only reason i jailbroke in the early days was for unlocking but now we've had factory unlocking for a while and have since abandoned the JB community.

Stock iPhone 4 16GB. I see no reason to JB unless you want to break the law by downloading apps which are against your service providers T&C such as MyWi, or if you want to download chargeable apps for free.

Guess you don't know about facetime over 3G....
Or unlocking so you can use the phone on another service provider.


JB iP4 32GB Black.

The only reason is because I like using facetime over 3G. It works great.:)

They're all like that. The phone needs storage for the OS and other odds and ends to make it work. My 32GB has ~29GB.

Or were you kidding?

Well, I was being partially serious and partially humorous. Even if the phone is advertised of having 16GB of space, you can only access 14GB for personal use. But yeah, I suppose they gotta find a place to stuff that OS and stuff somewhere...

Still love my phone. It's the coolest, awesomest, greatest phone ever built. Ever. :eek:

JB 16GB iP4. Only JB for MyWi and SBSettings. I use the MyWi for my wifi only iPad for little things that I just want a bigger screen for. It's not like I'm downloading entire movies over 3G or anything. Sometimes I just want a website on a bigger screen. Hell, my data usage still hasn't gone over 2GB since I've installed it. But I am not letting go of my unlimited data contract. They can pry it from my cold dead hands!! /charlton heston speech.

Stock iP4? What a waste. No tethering, no FaceTime over 3G, no HQ YouTube over 3G, no holding the sleep button to activate the LED flashlight, no DisplayOut? No thank you! I prefer to actually get some use out of my iPhone. ;)

i was hesitant at first about jbing the 4. Ive done it on my original n 3g... figured the 4 had everything i wanted and needed. Then i broke down and did it anyway.. forgot about all the great features the phone actually has to offer by jbing... bitesms alone was enough for me! But along with facetime over 3g, sbsettings and many many others .even a few themes that make use of the retina display... Further, have noticed no battery drain issues or lag, things we would get with the previous jb's bc the phone can handle it now.

I understand the wanting to keep it stock but this phone has a lot of potential when opened up to it full capabilities.. And I encourage the Devs to keep pushing its limits bc the phone has really opened up!

Once you jb, you'll never look at stock the same. Come on in! The water's fine.

I've said it numerous times, but if there is ever a day when I can't jailbreak the iPhone, I will move on to a new phone.

Jailbreaking transforms the iPhone from a toy into a machine.
