With the return of the easiest...

I've been noticing over the past few days that my iPhone 4 seems to vibrate very softly, sporadically throughout day. At first I thought I was crazy. The vibration is barely noticeable and the first few times it happened I simply dismissed it thinking must be going crazy. Luckily I'm not. Anyone else noticing a...

Whoa. This brings back some amazing memories. For those who used the original iPhone and remember using the jailbreak website JailbreakMe.com--it's back! I used JailbreakMe.com to jailbreak my iPhone on 1.1.1 in December of 2007 (holy that was a long time ago!). The site has been updated by @comex to jailbreak your iPhone 4/3GS/3G on...
