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.

That is because Android is an open OS. Anyone can write an Android ap.

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.

Yes, and exactly for Greg's reasons that the iPhone is closed, it is
what it is and therefore everybody's is the same.

That is also the reason corporate America embraced the IBM PS/2
PCs.Guys were not buying mail order cards and loading shaky drivers on
their "work" machines. Everything was licensed and verified that it
would not conflict with anything else. You didn't have all those IRQ
conflicts and drivers stealing each other's resources.

I had all the PS/2 parts I wanted and ran them for years until I
started wanting to do things IBM did not think a PS/2 user needed. I
was not going to trade IBM's vision for Apple's vision of what I
wanted so I went for the open hardware of WinTel and I deal with the
conflicts I might encounter.

I am sure Harry understands that if an ap he buys "bricks" his phone,
it is on him to fix it now.

I remember those days, company I worked for had a Compaq computer and
every card in it had to be from Compaq, including the modem.
