the hell is tethered/un-tethered?

 

I've been having so much trouble trying to jailbreak my phone. I may have to just use AT&T

 

I hear apple is trying to make this illegal :chuckles:

 

Just found out I get a discount at AT&T on my monthly bill:awais:

 

you mean that old school game breakout?

 

Tethered: to boot up your ipod you must do it while connected to the computer. The computer writes it out to RAM. Once you turn it off, its gone and you have to do it again from the computer.
Semi-tethered: Same as tethered, but if you turn it back on without a computer it will just load the default Apple software.
Untethered: Full jailbreak. Jailbreak it once, you can turn it off and on all you want and it stays jailbroken.

 

i've had 3 iphone and all 3 i've jailbroken. Never had any problems and i love the flexibility it gives me. Some of these apps are just too good.

 

 

fuck tethered/semi tethered. I didn't even know that existed.

 

For some reason I can't get WinterBoard to run on mine, is there a trick to getting it to load right or is it just buggy like that? Seems Summer and Spring are both no longer available for DL
