Yes, if you'll see, this worked for me too. It's very odd. This had better not happen every time the phone needs to be restarted, or I'm going to need to go back to stock. I can't do the whole untethered jailbreak thing.
Got a tip for us?

MOD NOTE: We are trying to avoid just this by having ONE thread on trouble/troubleshooting for the evasi0n JB. Please assist us during this time of heavy traffic.

My windows 7 PC won't run the evasi0n executable. It says I need to run in Administrator mode and errors out. This is true even if I right-click and choose "Run as Administrator".
I get the prompt from Windows asking if I want to allow the executable to make changes on my PC but that's immediately followed by a popup from evasi0n saying I need to run as Administrator.
This is a work PC and I don't have admin password but my account is typically able to run things as part of the admin group.

Can anyone else confirm they have powered down their iPhone and reboots ok.
ie : The jailbreak is a true un-tethered version.

Just to reply to you, I went ahead and rebooted my phone (unplugged). Everything is still working great!
iPad 4 reboots perfect; iPhone 4S, not so much.
Edit: iPhone seems to be fine after a few more reboots. Have rebooted it twice without it plugged in at this point.

Not sure if anyone has posted this yet, but, after a reboot, the default weather app will crash. Just in case if anyone likes the default weather app.
Does the first reboot take longer than usual?
Edit: Stuck on Apple logo
Had to hard reset when plugged into computer... anyone confirm it's always like this?

I had to force reset (hold power/home buttons). After that it boots fine, though the Weather app crashes upon launch. Outside the weather app, all else is good.
For me a shut down and turn on works fine. A restart through NCSettings (or anything else) causes it to fail to boot. You can get it to boot by entering safe mode via holding volume up on a hard reset. Then, shut down and turn on to get out of safe mode.
So, true untethered, but an annoying bug that hopefully will be fixed soon.

Ive not seen any owners reporting this.
have you tried shutting down iTunes and re starting and did you also follow the advice to ensure iTunes was shut down whilst running the jb ?
Weird, plugged it in and out about 5 times and it suddenly recognised it... May go back to stock until early issues are ironed out.
Your account at work probably doesnt have the correct security privilages.
Run it from home logged in an admins account.
I had this same problem. It doesn't seem to recognize an admin account that is a member of a domain. You will have to log in with a local administrator account.
Im glad you got this resolved.
Try to hold on as i'm sure bugs will be ironed out quickly !
Been all over the place post JB, hung on finding offsets had to hard boot twice and now everytime I reboot I end up having to hard boot once or twice to get it to boot. Tried to re-jailbreak too. At least iTunes sees it hopefully a restore will fix all the JB wonky-ness.
EDIT: Either threatening to go back to non-JB, opening iTunres and letting it see the phone, or just waiting for things to settle (some sort of cache?) fixed it I can now reboot did it 3 strait times unplugged. It's an iPhone 5 if that matters.
