Jail breaking is nothing but erasing the existing operating system and reloading the customizable operating system. It involves hacking the iPhone software and loading your own operating system software with customizable features.<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\"><strong>Jail Breaking versus Unlocking<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">Jail breaking is different from unlocking an iPhone. Unlocking an iPhone is freeing it from the service provider you bought it and enabling it to use it on any other service. Whereas, jail breaking is the first step to unlocking but not necessarily changing the service provider.<\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">For example, when you unlock an iPhone, you can change the service provider. But, when you jail break an iPhone, you can still continue with your existing service provider.<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\"><strong>Advantages of Jail breaking iPhone<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">Cydia, Spirit, QuickPwn and so on are some of the tools to jail break an Apple iPhone. With jail breaking, you can have customized wall papers and hide native iPhone applications which you do not use.<\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">You can practically make the iPhone work in your personal way which you want instead of getting stuck with the default options given by Apple. Hackers are continuously working on jail breaking techniques and freeing up the iPhone for better utilization.<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\"><strong>Disadvantages of Jail breaking iPhone<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\"><!--\ngoogle_ad_client = \"pub-1297284887870121\";\n\/* AppleiPhone300x250, created 6\/4\/10 *\/\ngoogle_ad_slot = \"7139736585\";\ngoogle_ad_width = 300;\ngoogle_ad_height = 250;\n\/\/-->\n<\/script><br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\"\nsrc=\"http:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/show_ads.js\">\n<\/script><\/p>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">Once you jail break your iPhone, you cannot return to apple software though you can continue accessing the Apps and tunes from the apple stores. Jail breaking may not be suggestible because of the following reasons:<\/div>\n<div>\n<ul>\n<li>Conflicts the functioning of the device itself<\/li>\n<li>More prone to viruses and worms<\/li>\n<li>Loss of warranty of the iPhone<\/li>\n<li>With every iTune update, jail breaking is disabled and you have to jail break it again. \ud83d\ude42<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div>Anyways, if you still decide to go ahead, here are some guidelines for jail breaking.<\/div>\n<p><\/p>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\"><strong>Legal Issues of Jail breaking iPhone<\/strong><\/div>\n<div><strong><br \/>\n<\/strong><\/div>\n<div id=\"_mcePaste\">While the hackers feel that jail breaking is perfectly normal and must be legalized, Apple still claims the copyrights. While it is entirely an individual&#8217;s decision whether to jail break or not, I think one must consider all the options before proceeding. \ud83d\ude42<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>New iPhone users may sometimes feel stuck by the limitations of the iPhone.
