Yea like its says anyone know ifs theres a jailbreak for it (9.1) on Iphone 5 and what are the pros and cons of Jailbreaking. Not sure if I want to give my son permision. He says he needs it so he can get MMS on his ST plan.
I need someone that knows whats up with jailbreaking to tell me the ropes.

There's no true jailbreaks for 9.1 but for sure 9.2 is out of the window. It tried a semi-jailbreak for 9.2 that didn't actually work. Maybe in 3 months there should be something. Apple stopped 'signing' the older firmwares which allowed to use jailbreaks. It sucks, I know. There are a lot of cool features that can be unlocked from jailbreaking.

No, no, and no... :shake

Edit: The third party unapproved apps can really screw things up. The warranty is void once you've done it, and Apple will not fix it.

Jailbreaking is legal these days. For me, I never saw a downside to it. But I was also madly into computers at the time. I probably wouldn't risk it for your son. What is a ST plan? The app store should have plenty of MMS apps that work on Wi-Fi. Jailbreaking won't solve your carrier issues. Neither will unlocking. Your sim card will recognize you trying to send texts without a texting plan and it will likely end in fees.
