Breaking out from the prison to awesomeness!

My iPhone is at this moment, consuming so much power that even while charging, the battery is slowly draining.
But I dont care =D its the reason why I can still connect to the internet.

So right now, I'm in the middle of downloading more packages for my now jailbroken phone. For quite a while, I resisted jailbreaking my phone because I (mistakenly) thought that all jailbreaking your phone did was let you download apps for free when you'd normally have to pay.
So I thought "hey, no point in jailbreaking then." if you can afford to pay RM3 for a $0.99 app, then why not?

Then a couple of weeks ago, I went for a BBQ at a friend's house where her brother asked me about my phone and didnt it bother me that some people ask to play with your phone only to go snooping around your pictures and messages? Heck yea. Not that I have anything to hide but who likes it when someone goes through your stuff.
But yea, I had no idea how to jailbreak my phone so I thought I could probably live without. Anyways, 98% of the people who ask to see my phone really just wanna play with the games and stuff.

So life went on till I wanted to download YouTube vids straight to my phone. Loading is a hassle and more often than not, goes a little cuckoo.
And then it happened. I have to have a jailbroken phone to do it. Then I discovered how easy it actually is to jailbreak my phone! *clicks on link*
"Shit, version too high to download"
Then I spent a few hours trying to figure out how to downgrade my version. I ended up not being able to use my phone for the night.
Needless to say, I was highly annoyed at myself for upgrading my version when it actually had nothing to offer.
So when I got home from cell, I tried again. The thing about the internet is that when you are insanely specific, sometimes you find your solution.
It was actually so very easy to jailbreak my phone. So easy, a 8 year old could do it.


*jailbroken*
*stares at phone*

*goes back to the internet*
*googles "what to do with a jailbreak iphone"*
