Help to Jailbreak Iphone 5 on 7.0.6
His first mistake was doing the OTA update on the phone. As mentioned above, it's not recommended.
Hope it works out somehow.
Oh, I see you have patienceYou should be complete now.

I know. You're not supposed to, even if it was to 7.0.6.
I'm pretty sure that's the reason for all the errors. Since restoring will get you to 7.1, better luck next time.

I understand that, but, from 7.0.4 you updated to 7.0.6 using OTA on your phone. Correct? Are you just not reading what anyone is saying in this thread?

Yh i am reading it. I even mentioned, i upgraded to 7.0.6 on wifi.
is that the only reason for me not getting cydia?? isn't there any other way??
why are you not suppose to? what's the point of apple giving us that option then
I'm confused with that statement
I am confused with everything. can I jailbreak or no???
----------
Will the following steps help??
Plug your iPhone into your PC
Launch evasi0n 7 from you PC again
Click on Jailbreak
When Evasi0n asks you to click on the Evasi0n icon on your Home screen, DO NOT DO IT
Instead, disconnect your iPhone from the PC
Press on the Evasi0n icon until wiggles delete it by tapping the cross in the corner
Reboot your iPhone and the Cydia icon should now be back. If it is, you can go ahead and restore your data from your iTunes or iCloud backup.
If it doesnt come back you will need to follow the steps above to restore and start again.

You used to be able to manually restore to any firmware but that doesn't work anymore. Only option is whatever apple is currently signing.
Apple isn't signing 7.0.6 anymore. Can't install that firmware to his phone. The only one to restore to is 7.1 at this point.

my original post was pretty clear
again, I'm pretty sure he did the OTA update before any attempt at jailbreaking and if he did then it has absolutely nothing to do with his problem at jailbreaking

am I correct fog
again from the evasi0n site: - Warning! Over The Air updates of iOS 7 are known to create an issue and make the jailbreak fail. Some devices are then stuck on the Apple Boot Logo. Until we fix that, please restore your device to 7.0.x with iTunes first.
