Firstly, only IPhones can be jailbroken. Android phones can only be rooted. And seeing as you don't know the difference between the two, I would advise you not to root your phone.

So a lot of persons jailbreak there devices, and i must say its an awesome experience to have no limits on these phones that comes with so many limitations. But my advice is this, never jailbreak your device while its still under warranty and also never do a tethered jailbreak, a tethered jailbreak is when you have to connect the phone to the PC to get Cidia working again every time the phone is shut off, with an un-tethered jailbreak you just have to do it once. Wondering why i say not to do an tethered jailbreak? Well take this information and scenario into account. Most times when you jailbreak and then revert to normal some apps don't work these might include but are not limited to; Mail, Game Center, Itunes, Facetime among others, so you would have to jailbreak for them to work again. What will you do if for some reason after your phone goes off and you turn it back on and go to your PC to get it jailbroken again and your charge port/tether port doesn't work, you will be unable to use those apps until your able to connect to the pc..... Have fun with your phones and as always thanks for making it Fixya.
There are two types of Jailbreak used for the iPhone. The first one is the tethered Jailbreak. This means that when the phone goes off or you intentionally turned it off, it will not boot without the help of a computer. You have to run the jailbreak program again for the phone to boot up. It's in a way a hassle for some since sometimes, you can't help it but you really have to switch the phone off.
The other type is the untethered Jailbreak which simply means that you will not have any problem whatsoever when you turn the phone off and restart. There are just some firmware versions wherein we are left with no choice but to have a tethered jailbreak simply because there are no other options available. But right now, almost all versions can use the untethered jailbreak thanks to the advent of new discoveries by the Dev Team.
If there is a jailbreak for the iPhone 5, which if not running a new ios there should be, just go on Google type in iPhone 5 which ever is you are running, jailbreak (I.e. iPhone 5 ios 8 jailbreak) that should give you a list of jailbreaks that should work on your phone. Just backup the phone before jailbreaking, just in case.
