I'm on an iPhone 6 Plus 128GB on ATT. All the Google searches on mention TMobile. Also curious if this could be jail break related. TIA.

Yes.

The blue screen on reboot is 100% jailbreak related; even TaiG’s latest beta is still unstable. Paired with a completely broken Springtomize, it hardly seems worthwhile.

Running cleanly restored stock software with uncompromised battery and stability is very refreshing. A potential of ad–blocking in iOS 9 will further remove the need to break.

Tethering is the number one reason I jailbreak. I don't tether a lot but when I travel it's really helpful.

Yes I have noticed a couple on my weekly reboot but hasn't affected user experience at all;) iP6+ 128 ATT here and have always set up as new.

LOL! For you maybe.

But I don't stay stock for your reasons. I jailbreak because Apple after all this time still won't let me make my device look/function the way I want it to.

Staying stock may be fine for you. Not for me.

For me I can't stand the fact they make SMS replies so basic. With all these Cydia hacks they could at least use all the functions ffs lol

For what it's worth, I just recently bit the bullet and upgraded to iOS 8.4 from 7.1.2

7.1.2 PanGu jailbreak was getting the blue screen crash 0-3 times during startups until it actually loaded to the lock screen

In this past week with the TaiG 8.4 jailbreak, I have not noticed a single blue screen crash during a start up

Running an iPhone 5 though. I remember a few months back that there was an article mentioning Apple changing the flash chips they used for the 128GB models due to a problem with them

Maybe that's related to the blue screen you and others are experiencing?

Did you get your iPhone 6 soon after it was released to the public?

I had a couple blue screens on my 128gb iPhone 6 on 8.4(bought in May and came with 8.1.3 I think) but I put it down to the fact that I had a load of tweaks installed because it was my first jailbreak and I went a bit ott trying out stuff, I also had other problems as well so I used Cydia impactor to un-jailbreak and then redone all the tweaks I knew I wanted and it has been a couple of weeks now and not one blue screen touch wood.

Yeah I did. But I hadn't seen one till 8.4. It's like 8.4 is still glitchy and there's no Jb Updates to patch it.

Smart but there crashes aren't that bad for me and I need the tweaks. If I had a Twitter or knew what I was doing on it lol I'd rally to see if it's fixable.
