Not that anyone cares... but I always get a little nervous. One of the last ones could possibly brick your phone.

You will find out who you are not a thousand times, before you ever discover who you are. I hope you find peace in yourself and learn to love instead of hate.
Yeah it's like a whole fucking gig worth of space man wtf

I care. I got iOS 8 4 days early and I just updated my mom's phone to iOS 8. It's impossible for your phone to be bricked. Trust me on this, you'll be fine.

I fuck with technology on a daily basis.

Here's the CNN story on it.

I have the iPhone 5.

As far as how it all goes, I'll let you know when I am done.

Word predictions, send a voice message in imessge, reply to a message without having to open imessage, grayscaling is now in accessibility, health app, tips app, send your location to anyone on iMessage (like for example, family wants to know where I am, I can just send them my exact location easily) and a whole bunch of other crap.

Apple has it covered best. They will say it better than I would.

You'll be okay. The worst that can happen is that you get kicked off the sever and you're back on iOS 7.1.2, forcing you to download and install the update all over again. You will be fine.

WHOA! Calm you ass down. The fuck did you do? You can get out of recovery mode, and if you don't know how, you probably should have never invested in an iPhone. -_-

And unless you were to get iOS 8 way before it was out, why the fuck would you use iTunes to update it? You can update it over the air!

I'm loading my rifle and driving to Cupertino.

Yes, I know how to unbrick it. My time is being wasted. Its been on recovering for the last 20 fucking minutes.

I'm using iTunes because it has been faster in the past.

Updating over the air makes it difficult for Jailbreaks to take hold. Most of the time, if you have an iOS that you've updated without a computer, trying to Jailbreak it will just brick the phone.

Luckily, I realized that iOS 8 was coming out today before I went to bed last night, so I was able to update my 7.0.4 version to 7.1.2, which is the last iOS that is jailbreakable.

I don't think Charile was trying to Jailbreak his device,but yeah, Jailbreaking is quite advanced. Unless it's from the Envasion team, you have to set the device to DFU mode, that can trigger Recovery mode if you hold it for too long.

As for iOS 8, it shouldn't cause a bricking. Believe me I've done my research before getting iOS 8 early.

It wasn't Evasion that made the last jailbreak, which is different from the norm. And DFU mode isn't needed (and hasn't been, since Redsn0w, I believe). The only thing you have to do is switch your time and date to allow the hack to take advantage of an exploit.

I know. However. I choose not to Jailbreak my phone, as I already have another iOS device that's already jailbroken.

Damn. I can't live without a whole bunch of changes to my iPod. I haven't used a non jailbroken iDevice in a while.

I NEED:
Bloom HD Theme (Winterboard).
f.lux
Gridlock
iFile
Infinidock
NoStoreButton
ShowCase
statusvol
SwipeSelection

Do you even tweak bro?

Once you go Refurb you never go back

5th Gen iPod touch 64gig for $230

I don't like spending full price on stuff. Just check out the "Certified Refurbished/Deals" page of Apple when buying anything Apple.

Or buy used from a trusted retailer. I don't like buying second hand though.

As soon as the new iPhones drop, I predict more than a few used iPads going on the market (especially the mini). With the iPhone 6 plus screen closing the gap between old iPhone screens and the iPad mini, many people might find the old tablets a bit useless.
