Im developing apps with a iPhone4 and my old 3G is my 2nd device for testing. So, is it possible to jailbreak the Phone and run apps with xcode?
Does anyone have expirience with that, a jay or a ney ?
cheers endo.
Edit: According to the answers it is possible!
Yes, you can jailbrake an 3G and use it to test.
But if you already have a developer certificate you simply add the 3G to the list of development devices. For that no Jailbreak is needed.
Only benefit I see is to run code on the device without having Xcode attached and read in /var/syslog the output of NSLog statements.
But then MobileTerminal (from Cydia) is broken in iOS 4 and I haven't bothered with installing the latest Beta. I find in more comfortable to ssh across from a full sized computer and read /var/syslog or other files in that way. So again, I am not using much the features offered by jailbreaking.
Main benefit for using a 3G is to have a device on 3.1.3 and to test if the App performs well in terms of speed and backward compatibility.
