ok I bought an iphone 3g 16gb and had it for about 2 weeks thinking to myself I'm not going to jailbreak because of the fear of something going wrong. Well after 2 weeks of annoying SMS notifications popping up while playing a game or watching a movie I decided to research how to stop this. Of course the only way to stop the SMS notifications is to get intelliscreen or some other things that I didn't really want to mess with. Saturday I decided to jailbreak and I have to say it was VERY easy just like all the tutorials say. I have read that you can always restore the settings if you decided not to stay with a jailbroken iphone, has anyone done this and did you have any issues.
I guess I misunderstood the whole 3rd party apps when you jailbreak, because I thought they all were free. I understand why they are not all free because this is a job for most of the developers so I wouldn't mind paying for an app I can benefit from everyday. I am trying a few free trial apps now just to make sure I want to purchase it (intelliscreen). When you purchase an app off of cydia or installer is it pretty secure just like purchasing from itunes. I'm not saying all the jaibreak developers are out to screw people but it does concern me a little that I have to do a transaction with an individual rather than Apple. Any information on 3rd party apps and purchasing will be greatly appreciated. I may stay jailbroken if I can find more useful apps that make up for my phone being in a hacked state.
