Settings app is also lagging, and my wifi icon is disappearing from status bar. I wish i could go back to ios7. I have shsh blobs but it seems that nobody won't make a software like ifaith anymore.

After successful jailbreak last night my 4s respringed itself 4 timesin 17 hours. There is much lagging with some appstore apps like chrome, fb,.. I hope that the problem comes from the bug with CPU useage that Saurik's written about in cydia app.

They haven't released a Mac version of the jailbreak yet. They're working on it, but it's not ready yet.

Is anyone having any problems with this jailbreak? I'm still currently on 7.0.4 jailbreak and am kinda wary on upgrading to 8.1/jailbreak

I wouldn't mess up the 7.0.4 IOS man I am on the same boat.I have been jailbreaking since iPhone 2G I would wait and see Byt the way I am so happy with my iPhone 5 on IOS 7.0.4 Everything works

Most reports have been positive, but it makes sense to wait, as there's not much on Cydia you can load yet. But the jailbreak seems pretty secure. The key is to turn off Find My Phone, put the phone in Airplane Mode and remove your passcode (which removes your Apple Pay). There HAVE been a couple reports of other problems, but they're usually corrected by rebooting and reloading.

i have you can see my comments. Fresh restore, successful jailbreak all the instructions kept in mind but... you have to stay on ios7 if you have 4s.

Thanks guys. I am also using an iphone 5. I think I'll just stick with this jailbreak till further info releases. My friend did jailbreak his iPhone 6 and he had no issues with it.

My advise is NOT to update yet. Some apps are lagging due to a CPU usage bug. Wait a couple of weeks until all bugs are sorted out, and Cydia apps are updated. Had I known all of this, I would of stayed on JB'd iOS 7.1.

Honestly, is jailbreaking still relevant...stopped doing this to my iPhones since the roll out of iOS 6.XX. I got sick and tired of crashville, instability, and all the hassle associated with jailbreakiing.

I still jailbreak for the ability to customize my icon layout. I like 30 icons per page 6 x 5, and unlimited folders inside folders. I also like customer themes. Apple keeps on copying features that originated in the Jailbreak community, when they copy the above I'd probably be done with it. I'm going wait for this jailbreak until bugs fixed & more tweaks updated to work with it.

can anyone help me. How do I delete the pangu app??
NoGoodNick
NoGoodNick - October 31, 2014 at 7:25pm
Don't think you can. Best to simply hide it in an used folder. I put all my jailbreak Cydia apps under a folder called, you guessed it, "JB".

Rest of my day going in backing up, upgrading, installing apps, restoring backup, respringing several times, testing tweaks. Such a busy day. Same story for many of us.

..... And in the latest news from Apple, iOS 8 adoption has reached 85%. I gotta wonder if they put that together or if they haven't a clue.

What about mac version??? When???

The Mac version will come out in the future, not now. Use a virtual machine to accomplish this.

If u already jailbroke with v1.0 and installed Cydia. Just recommend to update Cydia and Pangu untether inside Cydia. No need to rejailbreak (via @PanguTeam)

I'm getting an error 3014 from itunes when trying to restore my iphone 6. Any ideas?
tmel4198
tmel4198 - October 31, 2014 at 2:31pm
Restart computer. Put phone in DFU mode. Hold down power and home button until screen turns off, release power button and keep holding home button until its in DFU and you see itunes icon. Then use a different charger/usb
TonyNose
TonyNose - October 31, 2014 at 3:10pm
Putting it into DFU mode did not work. Instead I reinstalled iTunes, disabled my firewall, and signed out of my Apple ID account. I then did just a regular restore from iTunes without going into DFU mode, all is working now. Apparently error 3014 has to do with iTunes unable to connect to the servers to verify firmware. Thanks for your help anyway. Now time to jailbreak, Thanks Pangu !!!!
NoGoodNick
NoGoodNick - October 31, 2014 at 2:20pm
Woo-hoo! Now I can restore all the features I had before I upgraded to the iPhone 6! Will spend most of today backing up, upgrading and reinstalling all of my apps.

Idk man,my iPhone 6 was acting all buggy after jail breaking it with pangu,my safari kept on reloading pages ,my pinch zoom was not working properly,had to restore it and it worked all good again, so beware.

Iphone 6 is "Made in China".......... : )
NoGoodNick
NoGoodNick - October 31, 2014 at 2:23pm
Technically it's 'manufactured in China', but there's a BIG difference between American (and especially Apple's) quality standards and those in China. China is making progress on that front, but they aren't there yet.

Nice Work...!!!! Thanks

This better work this time.
tmel4198
tmel4198 - October 31, 2014 at 2:09pm
All the other releases worked just fine. Maybe you should follow instructions
NoGoodNick
NoGoodNick - October 31, 2014 at 2:16pm
They worked, they were just crappy implementations!
odedoo1
odedoo1 - October 31, 2014 at 2:19pm
not true, many bugs where fixed like massager, Safari, and all security passwords finger print sensor bugs! only last night 2 new versions of Cydia came out and it still not perfect for the iPhone 6L.
odedoo1
odedoo1 - October 31, 2014 at 2:22pm
my answer was for tml4198
odedoo1
odedoo1 - October 31, 2014 at 2:23pm
or is it Tmel4198
tmel4198
tmel4198 - October 31, 2014 at 2:29pm
He clearly just stated that it better f'ing work. It worked from the beginning and everything got updated and works perfectly fine for me through cydia. When at all did i say that there wasnt any bugs? I was simply stating that it worked from the beginning because his statement is saying otherwise
