Bit of a lukewarm response from us here at Sinful - sorry on behalf of us all for that if you read this thread. It's just that peeps have been waiting ages now for a current jb!
And Apple sucks. My iTunes is useless now as I've got the computer authorisation/non-authorisation loop problem. That means i can't use itunes anymore for changes without starting all over and losing my 8.3 jailbreak.
Apple need a good kicking at the moment so fingers crossed for something current on the jb front soon!

Well, if anything it shows that there is still an active jailbreak community out there who are attempting to offer support. Even for the older 32 bit devices. Gives them a good way to learn how to break and apply the learning to the more modern 64 bit devices.
Can't be made that most everyone has moved on. However, I think many would be surprised how many people keep old devices on old firmware jailbroken just to use as back-up devices or for specific reasons. I have an old JB'd Iphone 4 that services as a dedicated GPS device in the car and runs Navigon. An old Jailbroken Ipad is my dedicated music streaming hub and controller for Plex / Kodi, etc.

Up until about a week ago I was still using my Jailbroken iPhone 6 on iOS 8.4. Just barely switched over to a Jailbroken iPhone 6S on iOS 10.2. I really didn't even want to switch to this 6S because my 6 still runs great and it has a stable jailbreak that doesn't require me to resign certificates every 7 fuckin days! Only reason I finally budged is because of fuckin stupid ass crApp Store updates! I've got so many Home Automation devices around my house and it got to the point where I wasn't getting ANY updates at all anymore because of the developers setting the "Minimum iOS Version" to iOS 9!
What Hackers need to be focusing on these days is the ability to DOWNGRADE devices! No one ever really knows what iOS version to be on these days. It's hard to know if you should stay current or stay behind. Then if you decide to stay behind then how far behind should you stay? Then when a Jailbreak comes out you have to cross your fingers and hope that you're actually still on an iOS version that can be Jailbroken. Things wouldn't be so bad if we could actually fuckin upgrade/downgrade our devices whenever we want like the old days.
Luckily I have a pretty good circle of friends who have iDevices and so I'm always checking their devices to see what iOS version they are on. If I find someone who has something good I either end up buying their device outright, or end up trading them for another device of equal or greater value. Such a nuisance to have to go thru so much bullshit just to find a device that is on a good firmware these days.
I’m just happy to have a jailbreak on 9.3.5 or 8.4.1 on my spare 4S
BEST thing about 841 is it’s untethered and all the old tweaks are now working again
Like the boss said, it’s hard to know where you should be with firmware’s these days but my solution is to have lots of iPhones on different firmwares.
Might not be my MAIN phone that sees the next jailbreak but fingers crossed il still be able to play with cydia.
My son has just upgraded hi iPhone 6 to ios11 and says it runs like a pig now! Don't forget Apple want us all to upgrade to their latest phones even if they're not much better than the previous models. So how do they do it? Keep bringing out unnecessary new ios's to counter jailbreaking and slow down older phones working well on old ios's!
When I can get a new stable jailbreak, I'll buy myself a new iPhone. Until then Apple just look at your foot - I think you shot it!

Has anybody RC3 ipa for download? the link in the first post points to RC4 which fuck up the device and doesn't jb.
RC2 does the worsed ever jb leading to restore which is a waste of time.
