iOS 8.1 Jailbreak Released!

Homescreendesigner has also been updated. Although the official version is saying not yet compatible.

With the newer recent iOS functionalities, I find no need to jailbreak anymore.

Fair enough. However....

Does that mean you still using that crusty old backup?

But of course

This ccsettings has some nifty toggles including a close background apps toggle and a clear badge toggle...

Thanks looks good!

I open the app and I get "please make sure you download pangu8 and have internet access". No help on the interwebs

What version you running? 1.1.0? You running this at home or a corporate network (funky firewalls etc.)?

+1. Moved off iOS 6 jailbroken onto iOS 7. I kept the phone like that for a month or so before selling. I've since had 3 more iPhones and never jailbroke any of them

I jailbroke my last phone, some features where nice, Like delete ALL messages at once, customize your icons (but i like the default), putting backgrounds in folders and you could enable and disable some graphic features which was quite nice.
There was also a tweek for the "Lightning cable not supported" and some apps like the memory/cache cleaner that needed "Root access"
i agree jailbreak is not really necessary unless you want to play around.

8.1.1 beta is out, hope a jailbreak patch isn't part of the change list!!

Pangu were way to eager with this jailbreak...

I see Pangu8 1.2.0 is out which includes some key fixes. Should make life easier for those still sitting on the fence.
