We have paid developer account for iphone development and we have 2 iphones one jail broken and other one non jail broken. We have registered both phones for development and got provisioning profile. We can use non jailbroken phone for development. But we try to use jail broken phone for development we get message Error starting executable no Provisioned iphone device is connected.
But We can test application on it using ad hoc profile. Does this means jailbroken devices can not be used for development? Regards, Manish

Jailbreaking allows the highest level of access (root access) to the phone user and allows them to install applications, extensions or other software that is not authorised by Apple. Same process in Android systems is known as rooting.
Jailbreaking an iPhone, iPod Touch or iPad allows a user to install apps from places other than the Apple app store. Unlocking an iPhone enables it to be used with any wireless carrier by removing the "lock" that forces it to be used only with the carrier that originally sold the phone.
Jailbreaking your iPhone means freeing it from the limitations imposed by Apple. Although you can continue using the App Store, you can also install other apps from other stores, change the look of the operating system, and plenty more.
I personally do development/testing on jailbroken devices (I find that it is nice for profiling/debugging with all the UNIX tools available, as well as testing out code for checking for tampered plist files ;-) ) as well as non jailbroken devices.
I have not had any problems specifically with jailbroken devices, as they behave exactly like stock standard firmwares..
