I jailbroke my device tonight. It went smoothly. I have a few questions, though.

1. The only reason I did a JB, is to install colour profiles (an app that allows you to change the screen colour temperature, etc. NOT F.LUX!). At the moment it says that it's not compatible with ios7. Is this going to change?

2. What do I do when IOS7.1 is released? If I update how I normally would do, would I lose my jailbreak?

3. I am aware that a lot of things need to be tweaked, and that the JB isn't really much use right now, but when these changes ARE made, how do I update my Cydia? (Or whatever the right term is).

4. If I wanted to remove my jailbreak, am I right in thinking that restoring my iPhone will do so?

Many thanks in advance to people who are nice enough to reply :)

only the dev that made it would know that

Yes, you will loose your JB, also you can't OTA update



3. I am aware that a lot of things need to be tweaked, and that the JB isn't really much use right now, but when these changes ARE made, how do I update my Cydia? (Or whatever the right term is).

Cydia will have an update saying it has a new version.

4. If I wanted to remove my jailbreak, am I right in thinking that restoring my iPhone will do so?


yes
