    you picked one, about the ringtones

    To the best of my recollection, it was about message tones, more specifically text message tones.

    Which have been customisable since iOS 5 I believe.

    Looking forward to it.


    We've been hearing that since the first jailbreak :)

    they try, but as with any piece of software, it's never 100%

    add to that all the major changes from ios 4 to ios 5 to 6 etc

    they are bound to leave a few faults, that are found by the jail break crews

     

    why does it bother some people here that jail breaking exists?

    if you don't like it, don't use it

    at the end of the day as long as it sells more apple phones, the better for apple


     

    Some people just like to watch the world burn...

Also, isn't Secure Shell reliant on public key crypto and hasn't public key been cracked by the NSA... or am I wrong here?



    As to the second point, I don't like the additional fees imposed by the cell provider either, but you do have a choice to change providers. They "care" how you use your data, because it's their network and they also set the rules. You vote by taking your business somewhere else.




    i'm saying i pre-record a studio-quality home engineered audio clip and then use ssh to transfer it to /usr/Library/Voicemail on the phone (don't quote me on that location), and that gets uploaded as my outgoing greeting. http://lmgtfy.com/?q=iphone+transfer+audio+file+as+custom+greeting (you're welcome)



    i can't speak to what the nsa has or has not cracked, but there are eleventy-billion ssh servers in use around the world ... i'll leave it to you to notify the people running them that they're in danger and should shut down their servers. the nsa getting into my iphone via ssh is probably toward the bottom of my list of worries. if they want in then they're probably already there or can get there without my having an ssh server on my ios device.



    at&t doesn't care if my request for cspan.org comes from my iphone or ipad; what at&t cares about is that they're not getting an extra $20 a month (or whatever it costs these days) from me for letting me use all the data i pay for the way i want. i'm voting by jailbreaking and installing mywi.

    Don't bother with him... His comprehension skills are low...

    Hey put your shitty Comic Sans based Hello Kitty themes and crap on as much as you want, then celebrate the fact that it is paid for by the thieves of App store developers hard work, who I guess are paying over hard cash as a charitable exercise..

     

    Just quit with all the lies, already.

     

    App pirates are usually jail breakers..


     

    Tush and fipple my friend!  I jailbreak because I want more flexiblity with my iPhone, not because I'm a pirate.  You pain alot of people with a very broad brush...

    i like how you avoided answering the comment that reveals your ignorance, but you're still clutching at straws with my comment about the custom ringtones and yes I prefer to have file level access to my iphone. And copy my ringtones back to the device, without needing to connect it to iTunes everytime.




    You made the statement.



    A blatant lie?



    Gross ignorance?



    No use clutching at straws going off on a tangent.



    Which is it, lying or idiocy?

     

    Your ignorance and stupidity in today's educated and well informed world baffles me...!

    I'm continuing to use my jailbroken 4S until there was a jailbreak for the 5S

    and yes my 5S was not being used since day one

    i restored it from iCloud backup when I got it

    played with the touch id (very nice)

    and left it as is since then till yesterday when I jailbroke it

     

     

    Why would I lie about something so trivial?


     

    I can understand this.  I bought the 5S, like every other new iPhone on launch day.  However, after using it for a while, I felt like I preferred my jailbroken iPhone 5 better.  I didn't end up switching back fully, but can understand the desire to.  I ended up using my jailbroken iPhone 5 quite a bit (just not as a phone) as there are many things I can do with it that I couldn't with a non-jailbroken iPhone 5S.  There still are as many of the tweaks and apps aren't 64-bit yet.

     

    This isn't unusual for me.  I usually keep last year's iPhone jailbroken and in my backpack as a backup.

    Oh, the irony. In their second letter (http://evasi0n.com/l2.html) they say that
    "We have refused all monies from Taig
    There have been a lot of rumors listing various amounts we%u2019ve been paid. We have received no monies from any group, including Taig. ..." Versus, in their first letter (http://evasi0n.com/l.html) "Yes, we have benefitted financially from our work, just as many others in the jailbreak community have, including tweak developers, repo owners, etc. Any jailbreak from us will always be free to the users but we believe we have a right to be compensated in an ethical way, just as any other developer. ..."
    Oh, oh, oh my.

    I wouldn't, for fear that it'd probably depress me.

    Let them look it up and learn something. Next time hit them with a Sisyphus reference.
