Jailbreak iOS

How to Jailbreak your iOS Device.

Q: What is jailbreaking ?

A: Jailbreaking is the process by which an iPhone firmware is modified to allow unsigned code to be run to gain access to files that Apple wouldn’t normally let you access. Jailbreaking adds unofficial application installers to your iPhone such as Cydia, which lets you download many 3rd-party applications that are unavailable through the App Store.
