Hi.
I just jailbreak my Iphone with "redsn0w-win_0.9.2". It works perfect.Its amazing, but I was wonder if I could jailbreak it again , but with another software like "blackra1n" or other software, you know to have more apps and things in the Iphone. Like in other word have two or more libraries with apps.It this possible ?

Thanks... :apple:

Yep, just so long as whatever tool you use to jailbreak installs Cydia, you're good to go

Lol, you don't have to apologize for asking;)
In order to get more apps (themes, extras, etc) you would add more repositories. You can find those in Cydia under Sections>Repositories. I only have an extra 2 or 3 repos aside from the ones automatically downloaded by Cydia. Definitely do not download the one titled "All Repositories" (or whatever it's called).
I've found the more repos you have added, the laggier the phone gets. I haven't noticed any slowdown on my 3GS, but my 3G was almost unbearable every single time I opened up Cydia (since it checks for updates pretty much every time it's opened).

you can't be serious....
If your ask something like this you shouldn't be jailbreaking at all until you get a clue.

Thanks for you help...

Have a good weekend.:D:apple:
 
Just remember that many of the non-standard repo's you add allow anyone to upload their apps etc.... Therefore you run the risk of downloading spyware etc..

There is nothing wrong with asking, but these kinds of questions should be asked before you jailbreak. Jailbreaking is not for everyone, and it shouldn't be done if you don't know precisely why and how you are doing it. Clearly you didn't do enough reading before you started running hacks on your phone.

There is nothing wrong in asking, if you have a valid problem, but what Applejuiced was saying is that you SHOULDN'T try to jailbreak YET if you are asking questions like this.

Try reading up on the subject instead of asking inane and ridiculous questions that wouldn't need to be asked with a little knowledge

at least learn a little about what you are doing and why.

For those too lazy to read up on what JB does, it's likely that the same people are too lazy to follow the proper instructions.
