Easy way to Jailbreak your IOS device

 

In a follow up to the last post about installing swype on your IOS device(IPhone, IPod touch etc.), I thought I would mention an easy way to jailbreak your IOS device. Simply go to jailbreakme.com on your IOS device’s browser and install it as you would any app (by hitting the free icon and then install) you would from the Apple app store. It will do some installing and then it will reboot your device. Then navigate to the Cydia app and start enjoying the freedom and flexibility of having a jailbroken device. It is really easy process and takes less than 10 minutes to set up. Once you have done this, go back to my previous post and follow the instructions fomr the link that I posted on how to install swype on your IOS device.

There is even a comment feature to comment on the files! Check out more here.
