subject: Why Jailbreak Your Iphone? [print this page] Introduction: Introduction:
With your iPhone (4s, 3gs, 4, 3) you must have downloaded some apps out of the thousands found in the AppStore. In simple words the apps found in the AppStore are limited by the policies of Apple. The rules help Apple to have control over the iPhone platform. For example, some rules include allowing the apps to keep running in background, running the apps outside the sandbox etc. Jailbreaking offers yours apps with extra added features that are absolutely legal and risk free. By no means will it void the warranty of your iPhone and restoration of iTunes can be done at any time.
1.SBSettings for fast toggles: With the availability of the SBSettings you can swipe the status bar which leads to fast toggles. By doing this you can enable 3G or Wi-Fi and start your Safari again from the place you left it. When you are finished with your work, just disable the 3G or Wi-Fi. Another feature of the app is the processes button which helps you to free memory and stop background processes.
2.Quick Reply for SMS: It has always been a problem when you are working on some app and you receive a text which needs and urgent reply. It needs to be decided whether you will exit your app to reply to the text. But with Quick Reply you just send the text by tapping on the send button and resume working with your app from the place you left it.
3.Folder Enhancer: Apple limited its users with 12 apps in each folder and even restricted the containment of folders inside folders. But with the Folder Enhancer, one can put more than 12 apps in one folder and even have one folder inside another.
4.Phone Loss Tracking: With iLocalis installed on your iPhone that is jailbroken, you can use the GPS/location services of the app to track your device. If your device is 3G enabled with GPS, then it will provide you with the exact location of your lost device.
5.Quick Scroll: With this application you can get scrollbars in your apps. After you are done with the installation, you need to tap with your two fingers and a scrollbar will be visible on the bottom or on the left. Just imagine how convenient it would be when you have to follow some long details on a web page or even a game FAQ. It would require at least a tapping of two hundred times to reach the end of the page. But with this app it can be done within seconds.
