What I want to know is: if Apple knowingly brick your jailbroken phone now, are they breaking the law? Or is jailbreaking still at your own risk? (I assume the latter)
- bad_user 16y agoI'm sure they would lose some customers this way though ... for example I was going to buy a Motorola Droid, but seeing how it bricks itself now I'm going to pass. Wanting to unlock/mod your phone is not only for an IT crowd ... I see normal people wanting to do that all the time.
- rmc 16y agoI'd assume it's at your own risk, and I'd assume jailbreaking voids your warrenty. It's perfectly common for things to be legal but void your warrenty (e.g. It's legal for me to intentionally hit my iPhone with a hammer, but that voids my warrenty)
- ErrantX 16y agoI doubt they would be allowed to do that - unless the warranty/contract you have with them allows them to do this (unlikely). On the other hand check your phone contract; there could be something in there about denying you network access. (or they could try to introduce it). Similar to what Microsoft (was is MS or Sony? I forget) did with cracked consoles.
