From today it is possible to Jailbreak Apple devices with the latest version of iOS, iOS 6. Want to? You know what it is and what advantages and disadvantages? I’ll count along with the steps.

What is Jailbreak? Is it illegal or dangerous?

When you purchase a product Apple iOS maintains some control over what you can do with it. You can only install applications that have been accepted in the AppStore and elements of the user interface and operating system are those that the Cupertino company has decided, without much customization options or exchange. Do you want an app designed as Wi-Fi only in a 3G network? Can not Is installing new gestures and functions to control the device? You can not. Does changing icons or notifications by a more comfortable or advanced? You can not.

Apple maintains some of these restrictions for safety reasons, others by design or protect their own interests. Jailbreak-it is completely legal, you can skip those limits. Of course the world without those limits is a bit wilder than that proposed by the Cupertino company but if you are careful and use common sense can be more entertaining and rewarding.

It is important to note that during the process of Jailbreaking can lose data stored on the device, so you should first of all make a backup of everything you consider important. Apple, at least in U.S. also voids the warranty of the product, but in most cases it is possible to return to the “factory” of the phone if there is a problem.

Let’s do this. What do I have to do?

Jailbreak used to be worse than a toothache, with many complex steps in which many things could go wrong. Today, in most cases, just press a button. The version released today by the Evasion team is really simple to use and works on any device, including the most recent.

This is the list of what you need:

An iOS device (duh!).
Jailbreak Tool evasion (yes, that’s the link to download).
The latest version of iTunes.
The 30-pin cable or lightning to connect your device to your computer.
After making a backup of your data (you remember it again because it’s important), all you have to do is connect the device cable to your computer and run the jailbreak tool. On the screen you will see a button that says Jailbreak. Press it and let it do its work.

We told you it was as easy as clicking a button.

When finished the phone or tablet vovlerá reset and reloaded. Usually, you have a Jailbroken iOS dispsoitvo.

Very well. What now?

You will see that on your main screen has appeared a new icon called Cydia Store. This is where you will find many of the applications that normally would have no place in the Apple AppStore, those that allow you to modify some elements of the operating system before adding new icons or blocked and functions. And yes, the Apple AppStore also continues to function normally and can use it to buy apps and games. The normal operation of the phone is not affected.

You can browse the store and install Cydia consider what you want or need. As it is not under the same scrutiny that the AppStore is possible-though unlikely-malware found therein. Chances are that before you install an information seems strange look in Google case. There are also many communities dedicated to Jailbreak exploit opportunities as ModMyi, which are good places to start looking for apps.

I do not like, make it stop!

No problem. Maybe you like being inside the security zone or think Jailbreak Apple has not much to bring you. You can always go back and regain your device as when you get it out of the box.

Make a backup if you used the phone or tablet and have added photos or contacts. You do not want to lose them.
Go to iTunes and select your device when you connect. You will get the screen with the same information and, in it, a button “Restore”. Press it. After a few minutes you will have the device in its factory state.
If you prefer to restore from a backup prior to Jailbreak your information can too. This will remove any traces also have used the tool. If you use the backup made after the jailbreak in the system will be some folders and files you no longer good for anything but will be hidden from view so you’ll learn not there (but beware, in this chaos if Apple would know if you take it to fix. always better to recover the backup before the jailbreak).
Remember to have fun

Jailbreak is like taking the training wheels on the bike extra. Can you fall but will be sticking out their full potential. Not everything is so clean and controlled as in the protected environment of the AppStore but there is plenty to discover that may be useful or entertaining. Enjoy it!
