I've read to jailbreak your iPhone, you download custom firmware to your iPhone. Is this "firmware" a full operating system? Are you replacing the OS that Apple included on the phone with a custom version that doesn't have some of Apple's restrictions?

It is a custom OS but it is still the iPhone OS with some modifications that allow for root filesystem access (you don't need to know what that means). But it does remove Apple's restrictions through the Cydia, or Rock Your iPhone store. These are community maintained application stores much like Apple's App Store but without any restrictions. Hope this helps! |
