Four Reasons Not To JailBreak
Jailbreaking is fairly easy to do—when it works. Sometimes, for unexplainable reasons, jailbreaking just fails. Either you’ll have to keep repeating the process until it works, which gets annoying, or you’ll find yourself performing a full restore pretty often. While restoring iOS doesn’t take all that long, restoring all your music, photos, videos, and other media isn’t a fast process. When you’re jailbreaking, you should plan to lose up to four hours of your time in case of a problem. This isn’t something that always happens, and hasn’t happened to me at all this year, but it has happened before and has happened to a lot of readers (because I hear from them). It can suck, so if you’re not prepared to put in the time—even though you may not have to—you shouldn’t jailbreak.
