Jailbreaking iOS 6.1.3.

I've been looking for the past few days if there was any possible way of jailbreaking my iPhone 4S (6.1.3.)

So far, no luck. Either they are fake or they are paid jailbreaks. The confusing part is some websites tell people 6.1.3 can be jailbroken while others do not.

While I'm unable to confirm if the claims to being able to jailbreak 6.1.3 are real, I found some information regarding fake ones you should be cautious of trying or you shouldn't be trying. Of course, these are already spread out there on the net but nonetheless, for the people who don't know yet, this is for you.

OPENAPPMKT
- A lot of YouTube videos are circulating online based on this app. It states that it is possible to get Cydia without jailbreaking by using openappmkt.
- I have read multiple comments about this and they are mixed.
1. It has worked before.
2. Now, it does NOT. (Important point here.)
3. While the tutorials shown to you would indeed show you that you can get Cydia, it's all fakes. Openappmkt shows multiple Cydia apps (both free and paid) and there is no guarantee that you will receive the real Cydia app. The apps shown will either brick your iPhone/iPad/iPod or it will perform a jailbreak. Again, you will have no idea what it does until you do it.
4. Another way you can tell it's a fake is that some videos use an iPhone/iPod that's already jailbroken.
5. Most of the tutorials do not show you them opening Cydia at all. The videos will only be up to the part where they download a fake Cydia. If they do show you that they were able to access Cydia, their iPhone/iPod/iPad's already jailbroken.

So, some of you might say number four's a bit unclear. The great thing about jailbroken iPhones/iPods/iPads is that you can tweak their interface; the way the app moves, the way it's organize, you can even change the look on your keyboard... there are many possibilities.

The main thing you have to remember is: Apple does not allow such a thing. There is only one way for apps to move and that's straight left or right. No swivel, no twist, plain keyboard... one word: boring.

WEBSITES
- There are so many websites telling you they are legitimate; they are real and that, they can jailbreak iOS 6.1.3 101%. Some are even saying their program's free to download.

I say: bleh. One thing you'll notice for the free programs that claim it can jailbreak iOS 6.1.3 is that before you actually reach the program, you'll get a lot of surveys that you need to complete. Some you even have to pay. Some you have to register your phone. And even then, you'll never be able to get the program because at the last step, they'll tell you to buy something and do a 'free trial' or your money back.

My best advice here is: ALWAYS READ. READ. READ. READ. Don't be satisfied with one or two comments and/or videos. There's Google; it's your friend. Search. Unless a hundred or thousands of people say it can be trusted, don't try it. Until you understand every nook and cranny of the procedure and program, don't use it.

If you have something good to add or if you have a more update information as to possible jailbreaks with iOS 6.1.3, don't hesitate to leave a comment. Help others go the right way; be the blessing.

Lastly, just something to add, I have very little to no patience when it comes to people who post comments advertising programs and telling others they are ''real". I will find that out myself and if I find that your so-called program is a fake or a scam, well... that's my little secret.

Notes: the information I've provided are all based on my search online via Google. Some are based to a little bit of common sense but most are done through lots and lots of reading.
