Jantelagen, you are a hero of this thread! Lol... You are only one who pleased OP.
)))
You'll note I mentioned that I "thought" they were SFPD, but that the head guy actually was FBI.
I got tripped up because they did not admit or deny that they were SFPD officers during the search and I was going based on my memory of what I read, which is often faulty. So, again, I will retract that statement.
The head guy was retired though and the implication is that retirement was strongly suggested to him by Apple.
Actual hard evidence or proof for that, I do not have. I am no Apple insider, just a customer.
not installing cracked apps is just 1 thing you can do
you get root access to the phone meaning you can alter files that normally could not some examples would be fonts, icons, system sounds
also tweaks are some things apps do but were never permitted to be in the app store
examples of this are (replacing the control centre) a 3rd party control centre would allow you to have more toggles and customize the look and the order of the toggles
so essentially jailbreaking lets you install apps(tweaks) that apple for whatever reason does not want in the store, some apps in the app store today started off as a tweak only jailbreakers had
my explanation of jailbreaking still only covers a few things or advantages of jailbreaking
OP is not a troll, just hopelessly lost.
MacRumors' FAN -browse italian jailbreaking sites/youtube and research before jailbreaking. you can break your phone if you dont know what you're doing.
do not post here anymore as you will only be criticized.

You are the kindest person I have ever known.
Unfortunately, I have just opened another thread about this topic.
If OP is not a troll, then what else he needs to get from people here? He got all he needed to JB. So now he opened another same thread
In most countries Jailbreak is used to pirate apps. However, initially jailbreak was developed to bypass carrier lock by GeoHot (16 year old genius hacked). After a while other hackers/developers saw a great potential in jailbreaking Apple devices and started developing tools to allow users to do more with their devices. That generated very large amounts of money for them and still does, thus Chinese guys are so active in this field.
However, the times have changed, and Apple made iOS more open and flexible, and therefore the need for jailbreak faded out slowly. And as of right now, jailbreak is mostly used to pirate apps... Sad.
That's what jailbreaking is most infamous for, and it doesn't help that the big companies and un-informed individuals spread this word around. Although yes, that may be true, I would say jailbrekaing is more about enhancing the user experience
You don't even need to root an android phone to pirate apps but for whatever reason, the tweaking side of things for android (with or without rooting) is associated with a positive meaning
Sure

I missed your post earlier, but now that I see it I am not going to allow you to lump me into the same category as a thief.
I pay for my tweaks and apps. Pirating apps is NOT why I jailbreak. And Apple may be letting things be more open lately, but they certainly would not allow me to make my phone the way it is right now if I were stock.
So, in my case you are wrong.
Well, Eclipse only changes the UI. Monochrome changes the icons to gray so don't install Monochrome. I am also using Color Profiles for the grayscale effect. But using that will also turn the icons gray.
Thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for. Now if I could only decide on the plus or the regular ip6, sigh. I'm leaning towards just buying them both and swapping sims.
Sorry, can't help you with that one.
I have the iPhone 5 (Black/Slate) and I'm keeping it.
