iPad Jailbreak not working iPad Mini

[wjlee91]

I have a 2nd gen iPad Mini and I can't seem to get it to work. It gets stuck in the apple logo and turns off repeatedly. I put it into DFU mode and restored so the iPad itself is fine. Just wondering if anyone else is having the same problem.

Let me guess, you did your last iOS update Over The Air.

If you previously performed any OTA OS updates, you must first restore in iTunes and then apply the Jailbreak.

Im not an amateur to jailbreaking lol. I backed up my iPad and restored before trying anything.

Same here. I get a boot loop with the retina mini. Also installed directly from iTunes.

I have done OTA updates on my rMini and was able to jailbreak it without having to restore.

I have the cellular version. Not sure if you have wifi?

I have Wifi, don't know if that makes a difference.

No necessarily.. I had problems on my iPad Air and iPad Mini jailbreaking. Under 7.1 B2, neither the Air or Mini was able to be jailbroken. However, 7.0.4 was no issue to jailbreak. I DFU restored in both cases from the original ipsw file.

I'm not sure but since it's working for your wifi and not for my cellular maybe that's the cause? I guess we need more people with retina minis to give feedback here.

Mine is the cellular... I wonder if that's the problem.
