    Default quick question about JB

    hello just a quick few questions on jailbreaking my 3gs.

    i am currently looking into jailbreaking my iphone. i recently upgraded it to the new update ios4.2. my phone isnt unlocked and is with the 3 network.
    wondering if its still possible to jailbreak? dont want it unlocking.
    and when you do jailbreak can you still use itunes and app store to upgrade apps with?

    thanks in advance!

    You can use idetector to determine if you have old or new bootrom. This will tell you whether the current 4.2.1 jailbreak will be tethered or untethered.

    Bootrom is what initializes the phone turning on and all that stuff...too much to get into but whats important is that if u have an older bootrom your good, if it's a newer version then its a little complicated

    Thanks button are there to serve u
