iOS Jailbreak/Unlock |OT|

I'm pretty sure a jailbreak is a very different thing to unlocking.

But a jailbreak won't prevent to from upgrading to a new version of iOS, you'll just lose your jailbreak, unless there'll be a jailbreak for a later version of iOS.
You're right, I meant jailbreak.

And okay. Unless future OS updates have some killer feature, I won't be in any rush to update
 
How safe is jailbreaking iOS? I have unlocked Android in the past but haven't messed with Apple products. Generally the same thing? Easy to back up and restore in case something goes wrong?

OP mentions stability issues, which I'd like to avoid. The reason I went Apple is because my iOS experience has been stable.
 
I just lost my internet connection, so I'm borrowing a wireless signal from around here. Poor timing. =/

EDIT:
Oh, just got it back.

Incredibly easy. You can always back up and restore by putting your phone into DFU mode. You have to go considerably out of your way to brick your phone; I'm not even sure if bricking your phone is even still possible.

Just make sure your device is compatible and follow instructions as explicitly as possible and you should be good. Recent jailbreaks let you try over and over until it works too. Then again this seems to be a new jailbreak from a new group so who knows how automatic it will be.
 
I'm at school right now so I understand I can't jb straight from my phone? And the progress is now at 100%!!

When setting up Cydia should I choose User, Hacker or Developer? I remember reading I should chose Developer so there would be more repositories.
 
It's up. Jailbreaking this iPad 3 to give to my wife so I can stop using that piece of shit. Perfect timing since my Nexus 10 is finally here. All she needs is f.lux and we're good to go.

Wow, that was easy.
