Quick question to those that have JB and then turned their iPhone Off and On.

When you re launch the JB app again and lock your screen for the JB to take hold again are you required to turn off your iPhones Passcode prior to this as is required when first jailbreaking ?

I'm hoping not as setting up Apple Pay again is a pain.

I seemed to have issues awaiting the notification after engaging the lock screen so turned off my passlock and then it worked !

I was just hoping I didn't have to do the same when re JB'ing via the App.

I haven't disabled lock screen pin / touch, and I've tested rebooting, both hard reset (power + home buttons) and via "slide to power off" and power on.

the only issue I've had is the phone will crash when I lock the screen to wait for the notification) resulting in an automatic reboot, or a black screen requiring a hard reset.

I do like the idea of having a jailbreak that I can turn on and off.
