Jailbreaking iPhone...the saga continues...
 
Reasons for "jailbreaking" an iPhone, continued…



http://tinyurl.com/bfovsmo



These are the "apps" I've added to my iPhone that weren't available from
Apple:

AllMail
Allows me to check and then delete or store a long list of emails,
whether I've read them or not, by a single tap on the selector.

Any Attach
Allows attachment of any sort of file to an email.

ayecon
A new, fancier set of on-screen icons.

Infinifolders
Increases the number of apps you can put in a folder.

KillBackground
Kills all background tasks at once.

NCSettings
Puts a bunch of toggles in the iPhone notification center.

Nitrous
Speeds up web access of non-Apple web browsers.

PasswordPilot
Saves passwords and inserts them where needed.

PKGBackup
Saves JB apps to the "cloud."

ProTube
A better way to enjoy youtube vids.

Winterboard
An umbrella for loading different visual effects and icons on the iPhone.

iBlacklist
Doesn't show here, but has its own icon. Allows easy blocking of
telemarketing calls.

AnnoyRightiesIntoSuicide
Still under development, but when it arrives, "priceless."


Most of these apps are available at no charge, but several required me
to pay anywhere between 99 cents and a few dollars. As always, snotty
comments from the snotties are always welcome and mostly not read.

I'm a *Liberal* because I knew militant christian fundamentalist racist
militaristic xenophobic corporate oligarchy wasn't going to work for me.

There are Android apps for all of that stuff.

Well, none of them are nearly as "exciting" as our boy Scotty thinks
( :) ), but they fill in some of the app vacancies Apple left in its
closed IOS operating system. I added some "non-standard" apps to my
Android phone when I had one. I'm not familiar with Android phones
anymore, but I suspect some of my favorite add-ons are no longer outside
of the OS.

Apple is a closed OS and if Steve Jobs didn't think you needed it, you
couldn't have it ... hence the jailbreak.



Well, you still may need "root access" to get the job done, and
jailbreaking is the Apple IOS equivalent of root access. Still, you are
correct in calling the Apple IOS a closed system and the challenges of
getting into it by finding the proper exploits and coming up with a
jailbreak are pretty heavy duty. I'm just glad a JB has been made
available by the iPhone IOS nerds.

Corporate America likes the iPhones over the Androids.

Yup, exactly the reason I am fully vested in Android technology, open
source.
