The Super-Easy Way to Jailbreak Your New iPhone
iPhone 4 included!
It was just a matter of time until the iPhone 4 would get its now DCMA-permitted jailbreak to allow users to install software without having to get Apple's approval first.
Now just after the iPhone 4's worldwide launch in 17 more countries, Comex along with other iPhone hackers have released one of the easiest jailbreaking methods to date – a method that requires the user to simply visit a web URL to start the process.
Those with any iPhone or iPad can just hit http://jailbreakme.com/ and it'll jailbreak the device without a need for any PC or Mac intervention.
Earlier versions of JailbreakMe had a few bugs that led the MMS and FaceTime being disabled, but those have since been rectified. Those who still have the MMS and FaceTime issues should update Cydia and reset network settings.

Does it also send personal info to a server in china?
Now to just replace the hardware & software...
wow apple will have a lot of Warranties to void. but its not like they ever honored them anyways. Wasn't apple the ones who refused to work on devices because their owners smoked around them, making them a bio-hazard?
Apple does anything to get out of a warranty this is just another way for them to do it.
YAY Jailbreak BOOO Apple.
DMCA permits jailbreaking however it will void the Apple warranty.
What I haven't found an answer to is if Apple can release updates to intentionally hamper all the users that choose to jailbreak their iphones.
works on the 3g?
im gonna do it in 30 secs!
I like what I'm seeing. I hope Apple's ecosystem is further destabilized in the future.
The site is down, as I cannot get this to work. This is SUCH a great breakthrough, except that it does not work. So, all those iPhone warranties are still valid.

If apple did that it's possible they could be in trouble since it has been confirmed that it is legal to jailbreak a device that a person owns. They would be impeding someones right to do what they want with their own property.
Apple's fairly good with honoring their warranties, because they hardly cover anything under them. Remember, to be covered under warranty, it has to be proven a defect. Short battery life (the battery itself, not how long you can run your phone on a charge), overheating batteries, miscolored or otherwise defective displays, etc. are NOT defects, they are the results of user abuse, which isn't covered under warranty, now go away and stop talking about this, we've deleted your forum thread anyway.

Yep, it was Apple. But again, that's user abuse, not a defect with the product. Its all in the fine print.
Now this is freaking dangerous. If just any a little bit malicious web page sends you there you may end up with a phone which has no more guarantee. Not every user wants to jailbreak and if it is THAT simple, Apple should really think more of security. I mean to hack your own phone to do what you want it to do is alright, unless its so easy that anybody can do it for you even without your approval. This is not the step in the right direction, I am sure that there will be consequences.
If Apple were to disappear off the face of the earth tomorrow, I wouldn't be upset at all. Yay for anything that upsets their vision of having each of us live completely enclosed in an officially licensed Apple-themed world. I'm just amazed that there are still people who will buy into that voluntarily.
Sony stop supporting Linux on PS3.... but only on people who dare to update their systems....

Yea so we can have app piracy, spy apps, viruses, malware, etc.
I'm sure there is field day going on on Android phone with spy apps. Development houses are already complaining about piracy of Android apps (90% piracy rate in asia, 40%+ in the USA).
And yes, I know Mac's are just as suseptible to all this.
However, the app store does protect the iPhone/iPad/Touch developer and the user from this..
Give me a break with all these iPhone, iPad and Apple crap news, WTF ??? it's just a f*cking Phone nothing more and iPad just a bigger iPhone nothing more, to talk about your iPhone and iPad every day it's f*king GAY, it's like a girl talking every day about her dildo
i tried it. it worked great. however, upon getting mywi it crashed so im restoring it on itunes right now
Someone should go to an apple store and jailbreak all of the ifail 4's.
Consumer: Hey Steve, want to hear a joke?
Steve: Sure, I'll use anything to cheer me up?
Consumer: What's the easiest way to jail-break an iPhone 4?
Steve: You got me. Whats the answer.
Consumer: Just don't buy an iPhone. Profit on already open software.
hundreds of man hours went in to making iOS 4.0 harder to jailbreak, now you don't even need a computer. just give up jobs, you will never win.
I just did this, and it works great. I had to try a couple times though to get it to work

Hundreds of man hours huh? Sounds like they just sat around and smoked pot all day.
Does it also send personal info to a server in china?
No, that's the Blackberry. Or you can just wait until Windows mobile 7 comes out, that'll be loaded with Chinese viruses in mere hours after connecting to the internet. Just like a windows peecee.
why dont i just go to the apple store and jailbreak them all
I anyone has problems with mc models just close all tabs in safari, close safari and clear the cach cookies and history and retry.
Apple is not gonna get in trouble for you voiding your warranty.
i just "jailbroke" it
hahahahahahahahahahahahahhaahhaa
Steve Jobs might have done his personal iPhone on jailbreak and replaced it with other software LMAO.
Now finally Steve Jobs can unlock use his iPhone without his boss looking over his shoulder.
1 year from now news headlines "no more iPhones with IOS, all jailbreaked"

A half decent lawyer will find a legal class action way to nail Apple on the warranty and force them to support the hardware.

Well, they could start it as an upgrade:
Steve: Bought your iphone?
Applefan: Yes lord.
Steve: Then go to our apple store and buy the latest jailbreaking software. Only $99999999. And yes, kiss your warranty goodbye!
Applefan: Yes lord.
