Your phone won't go down. It'll just go back to stock. Nothing will be harmed.
My understanding is you only need to sideload a new signed-Yalu app to do the JB if you
1) Reboot your phone AND
2) Your Yalu app was self-signed more than 7 days ago
So if it's been 30 days since you loaded a new Yalu on your device and you have not rebooted your JB is still fine.
Sorry. I don't understand. Please explain
If the Yalu app is older than 7 days it won't jailbreak your phone if you rebooted.
Say you did not reboot for 30 days and remained in a jailbroken state and then things got weird so you decided to reboot your phone... well at this point the Yalu app is stale (it's only golden for 7 days) so therefore you would need to go to PC and re-sign the Yalu app and use Cydia Impakter to 'side-load' it onto your phone. Then Yalu would be golden to jailbreak right then and there and up to 7 days.
Make sense?
It would be helpful if someone wrote an app that tracks the age of the cert signed to Yalu and just before it expires change the Yalu app icon to gray (dead). Would be handy to have the icon color change from green to yellow to orange to red and then gray as the 7 days went by.
still b7 . Check the cert in your settings

I almost never restart and never have my phone die due to low battery, and I assume a lot of jailbreakers fall into this scenario as well so it seems the 7 day expiration isn't really an issue.
There's nothing to fix. The JB was intended to run this way. We may get lucky and somebody adds a 1 year cert, like Pangu did on iOS 9.
Untethered JB's are a thing of the past. They are much harder to achieve and pose a higher risk of bootloops.
May take another month.So to update. Still no love for iPhone 7??? Won't be buying one until then
I doubt it.
That's very optimistic but hope I'm wrong.

I'll have to disagree with the last part.
They are safer, more stable and with way less hassle and hoops to jump through.

Hi mate, thanks for a top reply.
So, just to make sure I've got this correct:
* I jailbreak today. 2 days later I turn off the phone. When I turn it back on it'll still be jailbroken.
* I jailbreak today. 9 days later I turn off the phone. When I turn it back on it'll need re-jailbreaking BUT I will still have stock iOS.
* I jailbreak today and NEVER turn off the phone jailbreak will remain for ever and ever!
u still need to sideload yalu after 7 days irregardless if your phone is never off.
get immortal. it's out on cydia and working on 10.2
Bother!
But what the heck! I'll wait for BETA 8 and go for it! What's the worst that can happen!!!!!
nobody know when the final release will come or it may not at all. your best solution now is to download immortal and that will save u the hassle of sideload

Just 2 quick questions :
After 7 days, do I need to deleate the yalu app or I just need to resign it on my computer with impactor and thats it?
and if I paid for a developper account, is there a chance the account will be revoked if its signed with cydia impactor?
