What does jailbreaking an ipod touch do?

Lets all the gansta rappas roam free on the Ipod and have gang wars!

I am assuming flashing it so any cell phone provider can flash it to there system so he can use it on any network he wants.

It looks pretty easy compared to an iPhone. I just jailbroke my iPhone last night and it was an interesting experience. I had to follow these directions. LOL

Can that be done!? I want an iPhone but I'm not switching networks.

[Fish]

Yes, it can be done. Its a bit tricky and I have no clue how to do it since I have AT&T and they have the best service in my area. (chicagoland) Check out www.modmyifone.com. Thats where I go to look at stuff and get ideas.

My phone has only been jailbroken for only 30 hours or so, but I already have 4X as much software then I originally did. It was a lengthy process but well worth it.

To the OP, free up as much system resource as you can. What kind of PC do you have?? It shouldnt have that much of a hard time unless you are running a 1.4 ghz processor with 128 megs of ram. I thought those are in a museum somewhere. LOL.

When I watched the videos, it looked more hands on with the ipod instead of the pc. My phone was 80% PC, and 20% phone when it came to actually doing work.

Any GSM network (T-mobile, AT&T)

Not Sprint, Verizon or Alltel

[capitlj]

Dammit I have had no problems with sprint so I don't have a good enough reason to switch. My plan is cheap and I don't pay for roaming or long distance.

[Jim]

Does anybody pay for roaming and long distance these days?

[SPANISH-RICE]

well i think i know how to do it my computer just keeps freezing up. all im trying to do is downgrade from 1.1.3 to 1.1.1 and it wont work . my computer is less than a year and a half old its got dual processors with likw 2. something ghz? idk computers suck

[SPANISH-RICE]

come on aany body wanna at least try and help me? even if you dont know what youre doing?

[legacy-user-544]

try closing out all the programs you dont need running like the video says. only have your web browser open if you have to have it open. the more ram your comp has to use in the jailbreaking process, the better. just throwing some ideas out there for ya. hope it helps.

[Fish]

Defrag, cleanup, do every maintenance proceedure to your PC if your having a hard time. Then only run what you need. Also the video mentioned disabling and turning off everything apple related in the applications tab of Windows task manager. Your PC sounds like it shouldnt have a difficult time doing it unless you are not following the directions to the T.

FWIW, I put a Windows Vista theme on my iPhone. How is that for irony. LOL.

[SPANISH-RICE]

lol, well i figured it out. thanks guys
