To Jailbreak or not to do so, that is the question

Jailbreak-Cydia

When no one it was expected has arrived the Jailbreak. We were practically already in discarded have Cydia in iOS 9, with iOS 10 already in its third Beta and just around the corner in its final version. While the hope is the last thing you lose, few were people already betting on to enjoy Cydia on their devices until (at least) it wasn’t already iOS 10 among us. But these Chinese of Pangu do not follow rules or any logic, and yesterday surprised us with Pangu for iOS 9.2 – 9.3.3 for 64-bit devices. As all the Jailbreaks that have released these hackers there are many doubts about the safety of the same, is plagued of errors, and over is semi-tethered. So things do Jailbreak or not? That is the question.

Reasons to not make Jaibreak

Two errors plagued methods

Pangu, threw the official tool yesterday in Chinese and only for Windows. According to them notes official of its developers, the application is compatible with all them devices of 64 bits, but the reality is that there are many users that are having many problems with them iPad, especially with them models Pro. Nor is that is easy in the rest of devices, I same had that repeat the procedure 4 or 5 times to be able to do the tutorial that yesterday published in the blog. Unfortunately is the keynote of the past jailbreaks, from the classic hacker (ih8sn0w, musclenerd, geohot, etc) left the Jailbreak don’t have neither a decent application that really works the first. It will take multiple versions so that we can say that Pangu is stable and reliable.

Today appeared another new tool that allows you to perform the Jailbreak from the device itself, using Safari on iOS 9. At first it seems easier, or so it should be, but the reality is that you whether by collapse of servers or for various reasons, is not working well.

My Apple ID? No thanks

Was one of the surprises when performing the Jailbreak. In one of the steps of the first method we are asked our account of Apple and the password, which is not to do very much, the truth. Certainly already can sign me the Chinese of Pangu an Act attorney that my Apple ID not is it give. As I explained the in tutorial, best to create a new account without card associated with, and so be quiet. In theory not should occur nothing because it has is used for to create a certificate of developer and to do so the Jailbreak in your device, but it said: nor although the same Tim Cook you it ask, never des your data of access to nobody.

SemiTethered, if restart it you lose

Far away are already times in which existed the Jailbreak Tethered. Go by the street, that an application of Cydia work badly and could provoke the restart of your iPhone, and be you without phone until arrived to House for to connect it to a computer and restart it. This many not have lived, others have that it had. After the SemiTethered came out, i.e., if you reiniciabas it stopped working Cydia, but could from the device itself again to make everything work again. This retrieves this Jailbreak last after a long time, and although it is not the end of the world, is certainly not the ideal situation.

Certificates that expire

The method that has been used Pangu people to be able install the application that allows you to jailbreak the usa a free provisional certificate from Apple that is created with your account, but look at what point: provisional. This is to say that after a time expires, what will happen when this certificate reaches its final date? As yet we don’t know because there is no official version, but normal would be the application that is installed to stop working. We can think, “good, if already have Cydia, for what I want to it application that”. Maybe because remember that everytime you restart you should use it. Therefore, if you restart, lose the Jailbreak and you have to use the application that has already expired and does not work… then touch repeat the procedure again from the beginning.

Reasons to do Jailbreak

Last train to iOS 10

If you are lovers of the Jailbreak were less, everything done to indicate that you will not have another opportunity to do so until, at least, end of the year or who knows if even more late. We don’t know if Apple will launch any version of iOS 9, but as soon as iOS 10 is available, this Jailbreak will no longer serve, and hackers will have to start from scratch to develop another method to achieve it, if he is getting it.

Compatible with iOS 9.3.3

It’s the latest version of iOS available for the time being, and is likely to be the definitive up to and release of iOS 10. It includes therefore the solution of all bugs found so far, including security bugs. Is therefore very advisable to update to it if you’re on another older version just to have Jailbreak. Now you have no excuse, and you can take advantage of all the benefits of having the latest version, and also with Cydia installed.

Conclusion: you decide

Here nobody can decide for you. You’re the only one who knows how much value have Cydia and if you go through all those negatives to take advantage of the positive. Perhaps the most advisable for most option is that, if you want to jailbreak, you upgrade to iOS 9.3.3 and wait to Pangu people update their tool and method of installation, something that surely it will happen but we don’t know when. Is perhaps the most conservative option, but wait when you see that all the tweaks you both crave you are there waiting for you and you not enjoy them, that’s something that not everyone can support. Right now the ball is in your court.
