those of you having issues with the app store what cydia stuff do you have installed? If you installed anything right off the bat i'd say uninstall it do a hard reset(power and home button) and go from there.
 
I've had some problems with battery life since the JB. Also BiteSMS is slow to load sometime. Meh. No biggie I guess.

I can confirm the battery issues. Seeing a significant drop to an already mediocre 4S battery. My guess it's a tweak and not the actual jailbreak. My guess is bitesms
 
Whoever is having problems with no service

Go to settings>network> turn on and off voiceroaming and dataroaming! You should get service back instantly! I need help.. im having problems with the incoming calls freezing and having to respring any solutions

Had this on both my iPads and my my iPhone.
Easy fix.
1. Restore Device

3. Jailbreak (It will work no issues on all 3 devices)
4. Restore from backup (Oh yeah, you did back up right :D )

RemoveBackground SBSettings toggle works fine from the SBSettings drop down window but crashes when I launch it from the notification center and puts my phone into safemode.

Sweet that's all ill need?
 
do you have to do the VPN toggle at the last stage where it says "almost done - just unlock the screen if necessary, then tap the 'jailbreak' icon to finish...."?

Thanks
 
Anyone got a clear dock working? For some reason I can't get the stock dock to disappear.

After trying springtomize to hide the dock, all my dock icons are missing (even after disabling the settings). How do I get them back...

Worked perfectly for me. Was a little worried that I have a SIM pin, but it was fine.

Just watch the Absinthe window on your computer and do exactly as it says...and be patient.

If I had to offer any suggestion, it would be the automatic closure of the Absinthe window on the Mac when the phone is doing its final reboot. I believe that there is a slight chance that a novitiate might press the [jailbreak] button on the application a second time, which would cause issues.

I dont know about the others, but for me it was just something at Apple's end. This morning it started working fine. Just bad timing made me think it was the JB; I'm glad I didn't restore
 
Have you figured out anything to help? All I have installed is 5 icon dock, BiteSMS, and Zephyr, so I assume you're probably right.


A lot of people are having this issue. I had this issue with my Ipad 2. What I finally tried was, go to settings, general, and reset on my Ipad 2, and chose to "Erase ALL Content and Settings", then from my Ipad 2, I restored from my Ipad 2 Icloud backup. I then waiting for all apps to sync through Icloud, then I reconnected to my Mac, opened Absinthe, and it worked.
