So, what is the general consensus on this JB? I've got a 5s currently on 7.0.3 and have been waiting for news on this since I got the phone. Yes; they've narrowed the gap between jailbroken & what a factory device was, but there are still a few things I miss. I just want to make sure I don't have any issues once I start that ball rollin'.
 
Jailbroke my iPhone 5 running 7.0.4 and it went through perfectly. Now I'm just trying to figure out which of my tweaks work so I can download them.

Mine works fine. You might have to restore and jailbreak again.

Okay, so I restored my phone and got the same results. Even did it again without restoring from backup and didn't make any progress. Any suggestions?

There's not much you can install right now until Mobile Substrate is updated.
 
Did you restore it as new? I did that with both my iPhone 5 & iPad Mini.

Yes and no. I tried twice. The first time I restored from backup then jailbroke and it produced the issue. The second time I restored, got past activation, jailbroke, tested mobile substrate, and then got the same issue. It's at this point I just now finished restoring from backup again after I discovered that didn't have relevance to the issue.. :\
 
Are most of you jailbreaking who are already JB on iOS 6? I'm torn and a little confused with the shadiness of the china bs.
 
While having Mobile Substrate running? Agh. I figured. Well ******************ck. I guess I can assume it's because I updated to 7.x-7.0.4 OTA. Bleh. I suppose I should start downloading the ipsw so I can do this crap all over again. I really hate this stuff sometimes.

OTA or not... The problem persists...

Yeah.. I know that now. :\ I've been stuck with the issue and don't think there will a fix until there's an update, despite the fact that there have been reports of people not having the issue.
 
iOS 7 JB Released

I have one more dumb question - does anyone know if the jailbreak is compatible on the brand new release of iOS 7.1 beta 3?

I'd say a safe bet is no. It was a pretty quick release so it's probably just a seed to patch the exploit. Less than 10 days since beta 2 right?

Same boat. I want to update and get the new jailbreak but want to wait until more stable and tweaks can update. But also worry about missing the window of opportunity. Is there any chance apple will sign a new update anytime soon that I can wait..or should I just go ahead lose my current jailbreak on iOS 6 and wait until things get updated with this one?

I've restored back to stock for the moment... Somehow I'm skeptical now... :(

Also I used to get errors while the gzip and one other update used to install... It just wouldn't install those updates... And of course nothings updated it seems... So I'll wait a bit I think...
 
All this Chinese app stuff has me spooked, enough to go back to stock.

Too much private data at stake; hopefully someone else releases a jailbreak.
 
Anyone lose weather in NC? I'm on 7 beta 2. jb with no problem, just seemed to lose weather. Reset all other items in NC but still no weather. Just thought I would ask.
