How many times do you think you've JB'd your iPhone?

A few friends reckon they have JB'd and restored 30+ times since owning their iPhone. Can you break that record?
 
More than I care to remember, but I must say, I was intent on not jailbreaking my iphone this time around. I looked at all the pros and cons and thought I would just stick with a vanilla iphone, but day after day, that metallic grill of a dock kept nawing at me, calling my name "Yolanda Fuskalacheenie Hussein Miller III" and I would say to myself "Why thats not my name " :eek: but that didn't matter. Long story short, I jailbroke my phone again last night. :cool: It felt so good, like a crack head hitting the pipe good. :rolleyes:Now I have this big void in my life and I don't know what to do :rolleyes: Maybe I'll watch different strokes in spanish. "Hola, donde es la senora gigante, senior arnold"
 
yer since i got my iphone on release and i have probably done each firmware 3 times on average obviously now im doing it less as i know more about what i want from my iphone, id say about 20-30
 
I've jailbroken each of my phones (1st gen and 3G) a couple of times each. I was going to skip this release since there are no compelling improvements, but my phone is starting to do some funny things so I might have to go ahead and do it.
 
Every firmware since 1.1.3 at least twice.

Those were the days.... when customize actually worked.

I also told myself I wasn't going to do this firmware but then Dev Team released the jailbreak and I was bored after Never Back Down ended earlier then I planned. So here we are. My phone is closer to Vanilla then any other jailbreak though. I dropped the theme and am now using only SBSettings and Status Notifier with Lock Screen Widget. Perfect. :cool:

Why would you want to restore 30+ times, let alone "break the record". Means you are doing something wrong. :) I'm guessing I've only done 10 or less on my iPhones. :)
 
Only once. I'm on 2.1 and am pretty happy with it. Each time an update comes out, I wait a few days to see what bugs are found. I have yet to find a need to restore and rejb yet.
 
Twice, first time approx a week ago then the new firmware came out so I had to do it over a couple days after
 
I've never Jack Black'd my iPhone either.

By the way... why does JB'd look like "Jailbreaked"? I believe the correct term in this question would be "Jailbroken" (JB'n?)
 
I have done it once after every update since 1.1.3. I had to do it twice with 2.0 because of how buggy installer.app was.
