I just tried jailbreaking my Retina Mini (7.0.4, Wifi+Cellular model) and it shows the Apple logo for a few seconds, then goes dark, and then repeats over and over ad infinitum. I did a restore and tried again - same thing. I used evasi0n 1.0.2. They say it's compatible but it appears not to be. If anyone can direct me to a solution, I'd appreciate it.
Got a tip for us?

It's still buggy. I have tried over 10 times without success. Anyone else that was able to do it has been lucky
I found this, but it doesn't look too promising. I guess I'll wait for a new update. http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/evasi0n-7-...-fix-retina-ipad-mini-boot-loop-issue-1431007
Yup pod2g is aware of it. As of yesterday he was "stumped" according to his twitter but I'm sure they'll fix it in no time and release another update.
I got it working on my rMini WiFi+Cellular. Restored to default; jailbreak; restore backup (cydia disappears); jailbreak again but when it gets to the point where you click the evasion app, don't, instead delete the app and quit the jailbreak.
The first time I ran it I got the logo boot loop, but the above worked for me.
