I'm kinda on the fence with all this. I want to JB but am not sure if I should wait for GP to be released...

Love to hear your thoughts!
 
I have used limera1n since greenp0ision isn't out. You should add that option to your poll. I have had zero issues and it is working great!
 
I think The first option will cover you

Not really, I am not against greenp0ison, if / when it comes out I will probably do a restore and then use that to jailbreak instead of limera1n. But in the meantime limera1n is working fine.

I understand that, but you used it, so for the sake of the poll, you said "Screw GP and went with limera1n" even if you are not against it.
 
I'll use limera1n whenever it comes out of beta and gets a mac release.
I'll use greenpois0n whenever it comes out.

But preferably, I'd like to use PwnageTool..
 
You don't have one of the most logical poll options: Waiting to see which of the two jailbreak options proves to be better.

Since I have to wait for all the installed packages I use to become iOS 4.1 compatible, and I am happy with the iOS 4.0.1 jailbreak, I have the luxury of waiting a while to see which jailbreak is ultimately better.

To be fair, that will be cover by the "waiting for GP" in your case you are just waiting to see which is better and may not end up using it, but you are waiting nonetheless, if the OP will edit all individual options for everyone in here the post will be 100 options long, try to get with the option that is "as close as possible" to your situacion and maybe help the OP find the answer

To be fair?? No. "Forget Limera1n....I'm totally waiting for GP!!" does not cover my situation at all.

lol some of you guys are crazy. If you have already jb your device and you aren't having problems there is no need to restore and rejaolbreak with gp, you will not gain anything at all. And you guys also don't have to continue to rejailbreak when new betas of limerain come out. They are just fixing bugs for people who had bugs and errors, if you are jailbroken, you are jailbroken no need to constantly redo it ecerytime they update the beta or whathave you.

And you guys also have nothing to be afraid of. There is no jb that's going to perma brick your phone. Worst case scenario each time is you have to perform a restore and if you aren't careful you may lose your baseband update. Quit being so afraid and just do it. Idk what's with people thinking jb is a security risk and blah blah. It's NOT going to screw your phone up and nobody is going to be able to hack you after you jb. Idk where these misconceptions come from but if you are really scared to jb stay away and quit posting these questions all the time

You can roll your eyes all you want. The Poll does not have this line:

I'm totally waiting for GP

It does have this line:

Forget Limera1n....I'm totally waiting for GP!!"

Here, let me bold the part that does not match my situation "at all":

Forget Limera1n....I'm totally waiting for GP!!"

Does that make it more clear for you? I am not dismissing Limera1n. Get it?

Maybe you should stick to interpreting your own thoughts and leave mine alone.

Incorrect. There are features in iOS 4.1 I want. If I want those features, I will need to upgrade to iOS 4.1 and re-jailbreak.

x2.

4.0.1 jailbreak is working fine for me. no need to upgrade yet.
 
Used limera1n and got my BiteSMS and MyWi back. Works perfect! Don't hesistate. With proximity sensor fix in 4.1 and now these back, I'm loving my iPhone 4 again!
 
I'm not some sort of insta-fanboy with regards to jailbreak tools.

I use whatever is available that won't hork my phone. None of your poll options apply to me.

That's not what I said obviously if you are jb on 4.0 or 4.0.1 you are going to gain features by upgrading and jb at 4.1. I was saying if you are already at 4.1 jb with Limerain there is no need to rejailbreak with greenpoison as you will not gain anything.
