It's amazing the people in the store didn't catch you. Back then, jailbreaking was just one swipe. Literally.

jailbreakme.com RIP

OMG had no clue the site was still up and running, kinda cool.

u/Swiss420 1d ago

is it actually? hahah i remember jailbreaking my iphone 5 and ipad mini back in the day on that website

27

u/beefycthu 1d ago

I remember trying to do this when I was 8 with an iPod touch but it never worked for me and I was too young to figure out what I was doing wrong, ah the days

u/techfreak23 iPhone 6 1d ago

Good old pdf exploit lol man that takes me back.

u/discoranger1994 1d ago

It will probably be up for a very long time. The server its on could be powered by farts and still work with how “simple” the script is.

11

u/thePZ iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 13.3 1d ago

I understand it’s simple, it’s still not free to pay for the domain registration fees which I was surprised at

8

u/discoranger1994 1d ago

Its still not gonna be much for such a low traffic site. I probably spend more on fuel for my car in a month that that domain costs every year.

If it retail, they don't give a fuck as long as you're not trying to yank it out. If it Apple Store, yeah, they'll tell you to leave.

u/Direct_Emotion_1079 1d ago edited 1d ago

pretty sure local apple store staff don’t actually know what’s jailbreaking…

29

u/GreenTreeMan420 1d ago

Yeah the ones near where I live would have absolutely no clue what you’re doing lol

16

u/Gr33nJ0k3r13 1d ago

The ones with the huawai „work phones“ ? 😂

u/_Administrator_ iPhone 1st gen 1d ago

Depends. I talked to employees who also jailbroke their iPhones.

Jailbreakme. Com was such a goat

u/monkehmolesto 1d ago

I remember when you could jb visiting a webpage. Those were hilarious times.

u/thetechdoc 1d ago

I legitimately used jailbreakme recently on an old iPhone 3g I had laying around. Amazingly it is still up and working 🤣

30

u/Narrow_Injury4440 1d ago

Worked both on my 3G and 3GS. Back then when you didn‘t need to be a rocket scientist to jailbreak. Good old days…

u/SignificantRun7801 1d ago

I used the Unc0ver website to jailbreak my iPhone 6s 2 or 3 years ago. Relatively new model and iOS software and it still worked great!

8

u/B9C1 1d ago

lol remember when people would go into the apple stores and jailbreak all the devices

1

u/monkehmolesto 1d ago

Haha, I know I did. Then install nesemu (I think) a few games and leave Mario 3 running.

u/boxxa 1d ago

In hindsight, this was terrifying you can get permanent root access through visiting a website through Safari.

u/Firefighter-8210 1d ago

Yep. I remember those early days.

u/HeaIer 1d ago

Jailbreakme 🥲

u/zachfonte 2d ago

I remember when I was younger waking into an Apple Store I jailbroke a phone with jailbreak.me 4.0, oh good times

u/therealpharmacist 20h ago

How to do it with 16 pro max ? Can’t chat GPT do it for us ? Maybe it can make a code or something

u/usernameisokay_ iPhone 16 Pro Max, 18.1 11h ago

Ask ChatGPT to give you a brain

u/Ramko33 13h ago

Smh, this generation huh.

u/therealpharmacist 10h ago

But I mean, it makes websites and I was able to write a whole book and publish it. I guess I need to buy a lot of computers and combine them maybe I’m also 30 and have education 😊

u/Mintbear 1d ago

What was that jailbreak called for ipod touch 1st and 2nd gen where it turned your start up apple into a poisoned apple like a skull emoji? It was quite creepy to see as a kid.

Did this with a microcenter display model a while back. I just went back recently though and now they’re all on 18.2…

u/SignificantRun7801 1d ago

I’m so happy I stumbled upon this, coolest thing I’ve seen all week!! Props to you for being able to successfully execute the jailbreak.

u/Stormlover247 2d ago

😂😂😂 Amazing great work!

u/skcikorter 2d ago

Appreciate it 🤣

u/Emmet_Brickowski_1 iPhone XR, 16.5| 1d ago

Do this in an apple store. Maximum Disrespect

12

u/lerliplatu 1d ago

They actually keep their devices updated, so it's a lot harder.

2

u/Emmet_Brickowski_1 iPhone XR, 16.5| 1d ago

dang it 😔

u/Lanpoop iPhone 8, 12.4 | 1d ago

Damn I didn’t realize there was a jailbreak out for iOS 16! I guess it’s time I jailbreak my phone yet again after I back it up. (iPhone 13 on iOS 16.2)

u/PrinceOfRock 1d ago

Is there one out for iOS 15?? I’m on 15.1.1

u/KoreanSeats iPhone 11 Pro Max, iOS 13.3 1d ago

Lmfao we used to do this in the Apple Store on iPod touches and iPhones pre iPhone 4. 3.1.3 jailbreak.me

Jail broken in 30 seconds 😂

u/Ok-Confection-4643 2d ago

Did the employees kick you out for this?

u/skcikorter 1d ago edited 1d ago

I did it in the morning so employees where all around me back and forth. They could careless lol just regular people

u/Gigantic_FegThaLuke 1d ago

u/KrazyKen_Fan_2012 2d ago

Did anyone catch you? And IST THAT LEGAL

u/skcikorter 1d ago

Nobody cares where I’m from lol

u/quackquackgo 1d ago

I thought they’d be more sensitive in the US

2

u/drake90001 iPhone 12 Pro, 15.0 | 21h ago

lol it’s Walmart, not Apple or an embassy. No one gives a shit at a Walmart or anywhere for that matter, it’s completely legal in the US to jailbreak your device. These displays are imaged and redeployed easily and remotely. It won’t stay jail broken long.

1

u/quackquackgo 19h ago

Yeah ik, I’m not american and I though they’d be more strict, but I can understand it’s really not and nobody cares

1

u/trin806 1d ago

Don’t get paid enough to care plus no worker’s rights.

4

u/quackquackgo 1d ago

Okay, sounds reasonable

3

u/B9C1 1d ago

Jailbreaking is legal for the most part. You won't get in too much trouble messing with the devices in the store unless you damage it somehow.

OP shouldn’t be doing this as it’s highly illegal and highly rude. OP check your dms when you read this, im going to need your information of not only you but that same walmart.
