Most Important Thing You Need To Do After Using evasi0n7 To Jailbreak Your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch

     Even if you’re jailbreaking for a while now, or you’re new to this exciting world thanks to evasi0n7, you should probably know that EVERY SINGLE iOS device in the world has the same root and mobile password – ‘alpine’ . If you decide to install OpenSSH, you will be vulnerable to attacks, allowing other users to easily access the root files of your devices ( i.e contact lists, passwords, call logs, messages etc ). Luckily there’s one simple fix. Change your password.
