Jailbreak users, as you might know by now, Apple has released iOS 8.4.1 for supported iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices. If you’re a jailbreaker and have your device already jailbroken on either iOS 8.4, 8.3, 8.2 or 8.1.3, here’s what you need to know.
During the beta stages of iOS 8.4.1, there were rumors flying around regarding TaiG jailbreak exploits being patched by Apple in the latest 8.4.1 release. While neither has TaiG or any of the prominent jailbreak developers have confirmed this till date, it is best to sit tight for now on older version of iOS and DO NOT update to 8.4.1 until there’s any confirmation for it on jailbreak front. It’s better to be safe than sorry. You’ve been warned.
Existing jailbroken users may also want to give Cydia Impactor a try which basically lets a jailbroken device unjailbreak and return to stock-like state without having to restore using iTunes.
