Is it worth it ? I have a iphone 6 iOS 8.1. Is there any risk ? Can it damage my phone or cause any problems? I had a iphone 5 and it was jailbroken and it had some problems. Also, what program should I use?

yeah, my iPhone 5 would die at random times. Even when I had like 40% it would die. I just don't want that on my iPhone 6

For me i am smart about what i install or have a backup ready if anything is a little sketchy. Battery get run down from tweaks that tend to stay active so if you be careful you can Jailbreak and be fine. But that doesnt stop the possibility of Boots Loops and Bricking your phone. But i havnt had a problem in over a year.

Just have a backup in case anything goes wrong. I would strongly suggest jailbreaking as I allows you to do many things you wouldn't otherwise be able to. I have a jailbroken 5c and I love it.

Jailbreak in no way effects the hardware of the device. Therefore the battery is never effected by the initial jailbreak. So any hardware issues are in Most cases caused by hardware malfunctions or the user. Jailbreaking isn't definitely work it though. If you are on any revision of iOS 8 use [ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

ive heard that JailBreaking causes your device to become significantly less worth the amount you've paid for it. but thats just what ive heard.

If you take a iPhone 5s and jailbreak it, then restore it to factory settings, it literally sells for the same. (this does not apply to the fact that Jailbreaking will remove the warranty if you take it in to get fixed for example.

No, if you factory restore the device there is no way for them to know that it had been jailbroken. I've done it plenty of times and had no issue getting replacements.
