Ipad 2 Jailbrake... Can you live without it?

[Madchiller]

I'm scared too -- somethings I'd love to do but not sure I can handle the hassle...

Tim

Don't be scared, but make sure your careful, and take your time doing it! Make sure you understand what's involved. I thought I bricked my iPhone the first time I did a JB/Unlock! That was scary! The hassle factor is what led me to starting this thread. I love the abilities the Jailbrake adds, but man it's pain the rear to update, always waiting for the next iOS Jailbrake to come out, reinstalling everything, blah blah blah

Ah, but Marie and Tim:

... The first time you swipe the status bar to open up SBSettings so you can, with one press, turn on/off Bluetooth, 3G, rotation, autolock, VPN, WiFi, DisplayOut, Veency, Adblocker, Inspell or airplane mode ... or write a FastNote ... or close all the back ground apps ... or increase/decrease brightness or volume ... or even see what apps are currently running in the background ... or get a selection to reboot, power off or lock the iPad ...

... you will realize what a timesaver you've just given yourself! Just think of the number of steps you have to go through to get to Setting (or open the activator bar) to do these things. With SBSettings, you can do them anywhere you can see the status bar. No more closing an app to go to Settings!

I think I've decided that SBSettings is the quintessential jailbreak app. It really is a timesaver.

IOW, what I am trying to say: Come on in, the water's fine!

I totally agree about SBSettings! I love that app!

I can live without a jailbreak for my iPad 2, but not my iPad 1.

How come? Because there is no JB for 2 yet?

 

[Ipad007]

as this has been stated numerous times within the hacking section, NO.

I would like to have a Jailbreak on my 2, but as long as I have my first iPad Jailbroken, I can live.. There's some tweaks I would really like to have, such as RemoveBackground sbtoggle which removes all apps in the multitask bar. I hate having to manually delete every one.

I'm a little bit of a design freak, so JB gives me access to icons, keyboards etc to redesign to my liking.

I made several dialers and sliders for the iPhone way back...
Don't ask me to send you these as they're avilable everywhere...Google!

I think that sometimes ~ if I could get the iPad2, then I could play around with the first one and JB it with no worries!

I think that the JB for iPad2 won't be around for a while.

Max! That is very cool. Those pictures look really crisp and clear, goodness.

At first I jailbroke my 3G iPhone just because. Once I did it and realized what I had done and the newly found power I had. I just can't do with out. I just find it a shame that companies lock down their devices so much. What happens is that people want to do innocent things to them, but because of what is needed to do these extra things people end up getting involved into the illegals.

What I dont understand is that why is it that 90% of my apps on my Android are free. Now the same apps in iTunes cost money? I dont get that at all. Its the same developer. Are they just riding the band wagon of sticking it to the customers? I have donated many times on my android market. But I will be damned if I pay $2.99 for an app that should be free.
