JailBreakMe.com xD (4.0.1) Easy!

[EW]

All you people that havent JB already seriously do it! Get away from apple's tight grip!

 

So you have an iPhone?

Your no good with a computer?

Or just plain lazy :p?

 

One of the lads from worked show me this today, a simple basic jailbreak without the need for a computer or any skill. Just press a button and 1... 2... 3... your done.

 

If it sounds up your street visit www.Jailbreakme.com and enjoy!

 

 

A little bit of info for you guys:

 

Is this legal in the US?

Yes. A new DMCA exemption was approved by the Library of Congress, specifically allowing jailbreaking.

 

What's a jailbreak?

A jailbreak is simply the ability to run apps and use themes and tweaks not approved by Apple. Jailbreaking doesn't slow down your device or use any extra battery. A jailbreak lets your device be how you want it.

 

How can I be sure I always can jailbreak in the future?

Firstly, don't update past 4.0.1, the last firmware JailbreakMe supports. Secondly, and arguably most importantly, allow Cydia to "make your life easier". This will allow you to always restore back to the latest firmware available when you select that option.

 

Is JailbreakMe reversible?

Of course! If you ever decide that you want to remove your jailbreak, just connect your device to your computer, sync, and then press Restore in iTunes.

Yes.

Yes.

Yes.

 

But I'm still not convinced I want to do it, I know it won't do me any harm, but I've not heard of anything that kind of sways me to want to do it, when I hear about a new feature, (Flash is what I'm after, not for the camera, I mean for websites) that really grabs my attention I'll definitely do it.

 

If anyone can give me any incentives to do it, it'd be appreciated.

Keeps linking to the FAQ page, even if I enter just the homepage. The only other link is the Legal link, which just links to an OpenBSD page ;)

You have to be on an iPhone :fp:

 

As for flash there is an app on cydia for that ;)

Adobe's Flash technology is now available for iOS devices, thanks to a new application for jailbroken iPhones and iPads. Coming from Comex, the same man who developed the browser-based JailbreakMe tool, Frash lets iPhone users view Adobe Flash content on their phones.

 

Frash is in its very early stages, and works with the iPhone 4, 3GS (with iOS4), third-generation iPod Touch, and iPads with the latest software (3.2.X), the developer says. To install Frash, you will also need to jailbreak your device, which can be done easily with the new Web browser-based JailbreakMe tool released last week.

 

Once you have jailbroken your iOS device and installed Frash (RedmondPie.com has a simple step-by-step guide), you can view Adobe Flash in Mobile Safari. Not all Flash content will work though. Frash is in the early development stages (version 0.02), so only basic Flash animations will display, mainly advertisements. Here's a video showing Frash in action on an iPhone 4.

 

Apple's relationship with Adobe's Flash technology on the iPhone was bumpy from the beginning. The company refused to include the technology into its mobile devices, saying that it would cripple the experience and battery life. Apple CEO Steve Jobs also explained at length in a public letter his reasons to sideline Adobe's technology.

 

Some iPhone users were not happy with Job's decision, and looked into getting flash on their iOS devices. Comex's Frash should keep those users happy momentarily, until a better version of the software is developed.

 

As for jailbreaking, the procedure came into legality two weeks ago, when the U.S. Copyright Office ruled it as an exemption of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). However, Apple doesn't agree with jailbreaking, and says that the procedure will void the warranty of your iOS device, meaning no free repairs in case something goes wrong. To fix that, you can always use the Restore option in iTunes.

I had a look at this site, pretty useful, right after my friend showed me a video of someone jailbreaking an iPad in Best Buy :P
