Hi guys Im new to threads and forums but anyways, recently I jail broke my device and decided to turn "Find My Iphone" back on. It turns on normally. I also turned on "Share My Location" as well. But when I log into the Find My Iphone app it says "No Devices Registered" I have tried signing in through my Mac Book and my personal PC and it still says the same thing. Does jailbreaking take away the ability to use Find My Iphone??
Thanks Guys
 
It's definitely not from the jailbreak as the Find My iPhone app works fine for me and I am jailbroken on iOS 8.4 on my 6 Plus. Have you tried logging into iCloud.com and trying the app there?

Yes it says "No Devices"
 
Try signing out of iCloud on the iPhone and then signing back in. You could also try rebooting the phone.
So I tried logging out of iCloud on my iphone and it says "Cannot Delete iCloud Account, There was a problem deregistrering this iPhone with iCloud. Try deleting your account again"
 
Strange. Maybe try booting into Safe Mode (hold volume up key while booting) and then try to sign out of iCloud.

Done exactly what you told me to do and when I log into Find My Iphone app it still says "No Devices Registered"

Also it says "Share My Location Unavailable, Unable to connect to server. Please try again later."
 
Thats strange because when I try "Find My Iphone" with my wife's account it works on my phone. But it doesnt work with my account.
 
Well that certainly narrows it down to something wrong with your account. You may have to contact Apple about the issue to get it sorted out.
