Apple released 6.1.1 for the 4S only today. The JB still works fine. We will release an updated evasi0n that recognizes it as supported.

i guess i posted this somewhere last week, iphone 3gs is also affected by slow performance on wireless network, (wi-fi) and after upgrading to iOS 6.1. marc
What about the jailbreak?
What would be the best way to proceed in order to keep all the cydia tweaks and configurations I spent hours doing last night ? is there a way I can save all of this in one “package” , restore with 6.1.1, re-jailbreak and then do a “one shot” install of my cydia tweaks and configurations? please tell me there is a way 🙂
Download pkgbackup from cydia. Backup in pkgbackup. Backup iPhone in iTunes. Update to iOS 6.1.1. Rejailbreak with evasi0n. Down pkgbackup and restore previous backup.
i guess you guys will post another article when the evasion update is out right?

Anyone else?
