Iphone Jailbreak

How Many People Would Jailbreak Verizon Iphone First Day It Come Out.
Also Will Verizon Replace It If Broken?

You would go to apple to have the phone replaced if it was broken. And if they knew it was jail broken, more than likely, no they wouldn't. Jail breaking your iPhone, although legal, voids your warranty. But they have no way of telling that you have jail broke your phone before so if you have to take it in for service, simply restore it before you do so and you wont have a problem. And the would only replace hardware/software malfunctions. If you drop the phone and crack the screen it will be $200 for the replacement.

That's the way it is for AT&T iPhones. Don't know why the verizons iPhone would be amy different

If a device is Jail broken it will not be covered on any factory warranty and will not be replaced by Verizon. (Unless it is returned to the factory state before returning it or putting a warranty claim on it)

Actually, two of the comments above are incorrect. Yes, if you unlock your iPhone (to use on a different carrier) then it voids the warranty. However, if you jailbreak an iPhone there is no way for Apple to know that you have done this. If you somehow "brick" your iPhone when jailbreaking (which I believe is pretty difficult to do) then you can restore it back to factory settings and there is no way for Apple to figure out that anything has changed.

whats the pros vs cons on jailbreaking it?

Pros: Free Apps, A lot of Apps not on the iTunes store, Extra features, Cool themes (the glasklart theme is amazing) and sooooo much more.

Cons: Nothing.

Just remember, if something is wrong with your phone (like it messes up for some wierd reason if you jail break it)) then they might not have a replacement for you for a few weeks. Just make sure you can live without it for a bit-o-time..... just in case.

Please remember to search before posting.

There is an entire forum devoted to jailbreaking. It answers all your questions.

Important point - jailbreaking is not for free apps. Saying that it is raises eyebrows and makes people think you are a pirate, and we frown on that.

It's relatively easy if one is computer & technologically adept. Safety? Any time you're messing around at the operating system level of a device, there is a risk - you have to decide if you're comfortable enough taking that risk.

That said, the jailbreak forum is there for further discussion.

4.3 is rumored to drop on 2/14 .... might want to hold off until the JB for 4.3 is out.
