Re: Jailbreaking

[Raul A. Gallegos]

Hi, the biggest reason for me to jailbreak is because I use my Google 
Voice number as my main cell phone number, and jailbreaking allows me to 
seamlessly make outbound calls which originate from my Google Voice 
number. I don't have to use a specific app like nonjailbreakers have to. 
For example, if I am browsing the web and see a number, I can double-tap 
it like anyone else can and call it and it originates from my Google 
Voice number. Another thing I can do is send text messages out which 
also originate from my Google Voice number. So, using the native 
messages app, or my favorite one Bite SMS, I can text just like 
everyo0ne else and it's all through Google Voice number. This means that 
I can hide my real cell phone number. I said one reason, but I thought 
of another. Themes. I love that I can theme my phone. In fact, just to 
throw people off, lately I've had the Windows XP theme on my iPhone. It 
makes the home screen look like a windows xp desktop, and it plays the 
xp logon sound when I unlock and the log off sound when I lock the 
phone. On the screen instead of slide to unlock, it shows slide to log in.

I have many more tweaks, but themes and Google Voice are my 2 main reasons.

Just so you know, jailbreaking negates your one-year Apple warranty.
That's the only reason I haven't done it yet.  Supposedly, you can
reverse it if need be, but the whole idea kind of intimidates me.

So your jailbreak apps reside right along side of your Apple apps?  I
might give it a shot.   Sounds fascinating.  :)

Hi Kimberly,
No to both questions, nothing is lost, but much can be gained.

If you jailbreak, do you lose the apps you already have?  What about
your
music that's already on the device?  I'm thinking of doing this with
an iPod
third gen.  I have an iPhone, but I'll decide whether to jailbreak
after I
see how the iPod turns out.  *smiles* On Jul 1, 2012, at 12:52 PM,
