Q. If i jailbreak iphone and restore it when I am done will apple find out if send it in to get fixxed or something?
A. Not at all...the jailbreak is a software hack. It's like you installed Microsoft Office on your computer, then reformatted it...can anyone tell that you ever installed? Nope (and for you tech geeks out there...computers use a hard drive whilst the iPhone uses flash memory, so no, you can't recover the data).
Now if you unlocked it...then they can tell, since it's a different part of the iPhone (you can relock it, but it's more difficult)

Is it legal to jailbreak iPhones and iTouches?
Q. Im not going to do it because it is stupid but I heard that it is now legal to jailbreak iPhones and iTouches now. This means your warranty isn't voided at all by it. Is that true?
A. Yes, it's legal. It's your phone. Apple just doesn't want people doing it, because then the phone wouldn't work with the applications (apps) they charge so much to add on. With something like an Android, the operating system is open source code, meaning anyone can have access to it and develop whatever apps they want and can get their hands on. And, jailbreaking an Apple phone basically downloads open source operating system code onto it, so you can download a lot of cool apps that hackers have developed for free.
It's kind of like if someone developed their own OS that worked on a Microsoft computer. Would Microsoft be pleased to know that people are downloading a different, open source OS on their computers? No, of course not. Because the computer then would not work with off-the-shelf (and expensive) Microsoft apps.
So, to discourage jailbreaking, Apple first declared that any jailbroken Apple product is no longer under warranty. Also, each successive OS version had more sophisticated code to prevent existing jailbreak code from working. so, if you update the firmware on your phone or get a new one, the existing jailbreak code won't work. But, it's only a matter of time until the hackers figure out the latest code.
