Okay...i know i got a little emotional but you have to hear me out here.

This is the first JB that made me lose service on my phone. I didn't have this kind of issue on past JB and i've been doing it since the 1st iPhone.

I don't get all the rants for staying in iOS 6 but don't we have a choice? i mean i've holded up pretty well since iOS 7 came out. but the point is they should've given an option.

As i wait for a fix. I just need to be able to at least get some part of my phone to work on calls/text again...anyone found a new method yet?

Have you actually tried just asking iH8Sn0w? He's pretty good at helping people out.
 
This, 1000X. I have not heard a single complaint about iOS7 that could not be addressed with jailbreak tweaks/themes. I mean, I bet you an entire iOS6 theme will be made within a month. Add in some speed tweaks and you have iOS6 all over again.

What a shame.
Just curious. I know Winterboard is reported working. But you got any black themes and black icon sets that'll work with iOS 7?

I ask because that's what I have going on my iOS 6.1 iPhone 5 (jailbroken). Themeing away the iOS 7 look will be one of the first things I do when I upgrade and jailbreak. But I'm not willing to wait for it when I've got it already on iOS 6. Which, by the way, I've themed away with the black/grayscale combination I prefer. So, a complete iOS 6 theme isn't going to do it for me when I've tried hard to get rid of it IN iOS 6! Hey, is LivePapers working on iOS 7 yet?

As for tweaks, well…iOS 7 has call blocking. I took care of that a long time ago. Control Center? I've got NCSettings for Notification Center with a bunch of other tweaks that let me do various things. Luna already covers me for DND when my iPhone is locked.

AirDrop? Covered with an app. Not that I need it. Netatalk lets me load my iPhone as a network share and iFile works with Dropbox. Quick Reply, Quick Compose? BiteSMS, still working in iOS 6. MailEnhancer Pro (rules for the Mail app)? Five column springboard? Not on iOS 7 - yet.

Shrink? Not yet. I could go on, but I think I make my point. Not a lot of this stuff is working on iOS 7. Sure. It'll get updated over time. But I'm comfortable where I am now using all the stuff I have that gives me the same if not better than iOS 7 AND looks the way I want it.

When Mobile Substrate gets updated I'll move and jailbreak. If I were stock on iOS 7, I'd jailbreak. But I see no reason to experience iOS 7 right now when many of the 40+ tweaks or so I use right now would not be working and there is no guarantee I can replicate the interface like I have it now. And again, no. I don't want an iOS 6 theme.

Some of us are waiting because we don't feel like being inconvenienced right now. If that means I lose out on the iOS 7 jailbreak – so be it. I've got everything I need right now and it's all working.

Plus, ios6 performance! Looks like ios7.1 brings the smoothness, but some idiot pulled the trigger early and brought a gun to a fist fight....

It'll probably come down to lousy iOS 7.0.4 with some tweaks running, or stock iOS 7.1 with few bugs and butter smoothness.

Such a shame. I'll be really impressed with evad3rs if they jailbreak the public 7.1.

yes! i've probably sent him a bunch of @ reply's in the pass 8 hours. he's got someone on twitter that i'm talking too and doing a test fix for sprint phones first...so waiting on that. meanwhile i got work for the next 6.5 hours to not think about this and hopefully a fix comes when i'm out. if not then i guess i'll just move on to iOS 7.

it wouldn't be a nice jb release and just not have this no service issue because everything is supported right now on 6.1.4, which is a big part of the reason why i want to stay on iOS 6.
 
I'm in the same boat as OP. iH8sn0w is working on it though. Hopefully it'll be fixed before I go to any NYE parties! :D
 
Happened to me on AT&T iPhone 5. Waiting for iH8sn0w's fix and fiddling with all kinds of carrier settings. :p Hopefully it's sorted out soon! Luckily I'm on winter break and don't have plans to be without Wifi any time soon!
 
So aparently, these guys burnt a very valuable exploit with this release. They should have either used another one or not released it. No need to burn something that JB teams have held onto for quite a few years for a silly 6.1.4/5 JB.

Really really stupid.

Well the evasi0n team also burnt some that were not needed if they had optimized their jb. Pod2G just like to nag sometimes. ;)

The evaders never said they were not gonna jailbreak 7.1. In fact, it sounds like they are hoping to release a 7.1 jailbreak.
 
Thankfully iH8sn0w came out with a fix. Check out his tweet.

It worked for me. I can now make phone calls, and I have data on my Verizon iPhone 4s. Report back if anyone has found similar success.

This worked for me also. Allthough he released an update for his Untether and i can't seem to get it on Cydia? i don't think it's even installed on my iPhone.
