Hi, not exactly. When you jailbreak your phone, you are not limited to
the sandbox experience. Apps can interact a lot more with each other and
you can do some neat things which Apple hasn't allowed. One of the
simplest things you can do is theme your phone. So, if you want a Star
Trek theme for your phone with badges, icons, and sounds which are all
Trek-based, you can do that, but only if you jailbreak.

Hi Roul,
Jailbreak is a term I have not come across before; At first it suggested
unlocking the phone, but from this post of yours I now think it might be
enabling iPhone to be accessed from sources other than iTunes.
Thanks for your help,
Regards,
Mike

Hi, if you jailbreak your iPhone, it cannot be serviced. Also, if you
jailbreak your iPhone, and call for tech support and mention that it's
jailbroken, they probably won't help you. However if you jailbreak your
iPhone and ever have to have it serviced, a restore of the software will
remove the jailbreak. All that being said, there are 2 apps which come
to mind which might fit the bill for you.
1. Filer. This app doesn't require a jailbreak. It allows you to upload
files, such as music, documents, or whatever to the iPhone. Then from
the app, you can manage or do whatever with these files, i.e. open them
in other applications, ETC. If you just tap the music files you upload,
you can listen to the music that way. However this isn't the same
experience as using the built-in Music app of the iPhone. Basically,
everything you upload to Filer will stay in Filer, but no jailbreak is
necessary.
2. PWN Tunes. This is a jailbreak only app. Basically when you connect
your iPhone to the pc, you can go to sever folders inside it, just like
a usb stick. One of these folders is called "my music" and if you copy
music there, you can later listen to it from the iPhone Music player.
When you want to remove it, just connect it to the pc again and remove
it from that same folder and it will be gone from the music player.
Good luck.

Hey folks. I'd like to be able to transfer info and other stuff between
my IPhone 4 s and my pc. without using itunes. i'd like to avoid
jail-breaking my phone, because i don't know what I might do if I did. i
still need to be able to perform updates and so forth, and I have the
apple care protection plan for the phone. if jail breaking the phone
won't void any of this, I'd be willing to try it, but if it's best not
to jail-break, I'd like some way of transferring stuff between phone and
pc without itunes. Anyone's thoughts on this are most welcome.
