It’s been 4 years since the iPhone was introduced by Steve Jobs and the smartphone world changed. For the better.
Now, we have 4 different models of iPhones and the iPhone 5 release date imminent.
And there have been many iterations of the iOS firmware that powers the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad.
Jailbreaking your iOS device can put you in touch with all the glorious cydia themes and jailbreak apps. But, with every firmware and device combination, the jailbreak methods are different. This is becuase of the general nature of jailbreak. If you think about it, jailbreak developers are playing a cat and mouse game with Apple. The hackers find a bug in Apple’s hardware or software and exploit it to jailbreak that particular model of iOS device or iOS firmware version. Then Apple closes that hole leaving the developers to develop a new jailbreak exploit. In fact, with the iOS 5 beta download just available there is already an iOS 5 jailbreak available.
Thankfully, as a jailbreak user you don’t have to worry too much about the choices you have to make. The choices boils down to a few important tools
