Thanks Raul I'll do that. I really like Jeff's blog it's really blind friendly and has everything one needs to do the jail breaking. I like the fact that he has downloads right on his site. I have also listened to his videos and he is very explanatory in what he does.

Also, Mauricio, the question wasn't about what you lose if you jailbreak, but whether it could be done. >> >> Anyway, jailbreaking iOS 6.0 or 6.01 is not really possible right now if you want untethered, and believe me when I say that untethered is the way to go. Otherwise you will be depending on a tethered jailbreak, and it means you have to connect your phone to the computer and run software when it reboots. Additionally, there has been a very difficult time of it from the hackers on getting it working right. So, the good news is that if you wait for the long-awaited untethered jailbreak for iOS 6.1, it's a good chance it will be made available this Sunday. Now, to address some of the other things which came up in this thread. >> >> If you have a new iPhone and it came with iOS 6, you can't downgrade. This is because of Apple signing each firmware installation for your phone. I don't understand the specifics, but if you Google for shsh blobs, it will give a better description for it. I have been able to downgrade in the past before, but that was because I had saved my shsh blobs from a prior iOS version. >> >> The question I see come up often is if jailbreaking is worth it. I mean, you lose Apple tech support, and supposedly void your warranty if you have one. If you find that you need to have your device serviced, then you can restore and go back to the current iOS and it will be unjailbroken. Of course you will lose your settings and jailbreak apps, but that's a risk you take when you go for the jailbreak path. I just realized I didn't answer my own question on if jailbreaking is right or not. Like with all things in life, it depends on the user and whether said user wants to trade in the warranty for certain conveniences. Or even more importantly, it highly depends on whether jailbreaking will enhance the user experience for the specific user. >> >> I'll give an example, if you have been using the iPhone unjailbroken and it's met your needs, or you are really concerned about tech support from Apple and/or warranty service, then jailbreaking isn't for you. If you aren't concerned about their tech support or warranty, but you don't need the enhancements that jailbreaking provides, then again, jailbreaking may not be for you. I teach new users how to use the iPhone and even though I'm a huge jailbreak fan, I don't recommend it to my clients unless they ask about it first, and only if they feel they really need it. >> >> I could go on and on about all the cool things you can do extra with a jailbroken iPhone, but the list would be too long. Suffice it to say that even though I'm using iOS 5.1.1 still on my 4S, I'm enjoying most of the iOS 6 features due to some sort of jailbreak enhancement. The one feature I will mention here is probably 80% of the reason why I jailbreak in the first place. I'm a Google Voice user, and I have totally integrated my Google Voice number so that even tapping on phone numbers in text messages or web pages or apps, will use my GV number to call the tapped number. Furthermore, sending and receiving text messages using my Google Voice number is seamless and can be done through the messages app. These are things you cannot do unless you jailbreak. >> >> So, bottom line, I truly hope that untethered iOS 6.1 jailbreak will come out, but if it doesn't, I'll be sticking with iOS 5.1.1 for a bit longer. >> >> -- >> Raul A.
