    First I'd like to say I'm not sure what the forums rules are, regarding jail breaking, I'd appreciate the thread being locked rather than me being banned if it's not allowed.

    I'm running an iPad Air with ios 7.1.2, I'm wondering is there a jailbreak available for this right now? (Other than the new Chinese unknown one)

    The reason is, I'd love to use my controller to play MHFU.

    I really don't know which sites have the info on and I guessed a goggle search for 'iOS 7.1.2 jailbreak' might lead me to some very dodgy sites.

    Jailbreak is fine, we used to have a jailbreak forum that we eventually closed because it turned in to a huge hassle as far too many people were beating around the bush essentially asking how to pirate games. :)

    Yeah, I'd rather just wait tbh you don't really know if there's something nasty lurking in that jb code.

    (Yeah, I'm paranoid ;))

    I'm on 704, i dont see any need to update my phone, not bothered by any of the new features. I'll update once most new apps rely on it.

    Still loving playing old GB or NES games on my phone with the emulators

    I jailbroke with Pangu a while back and while afc2add didn't work, I found a workaround "crack" and it works with funbox. I personally love the new jailbreak and have had no problems whatsoever so far. While I can understand why people can be paranoid since Pangu isn't a name that you'd expect and that Chinese developed anything tends to lean towards sketchy/knock-off territory. But, this is legit.

    Instead of afc2dd, use - apple conduit "2" it's not a crack, but a safe alternative.

    Did they ever release source code for their jailbreak? If not I will hold off.

    Reddit has a pretty good sub for Jailbreaking. Very active community that answers any question within a few minutes.

    reddit is something that to this day I really still don't get. It's incredibly hard to find anything you are interested in. I see a bunch of random articles there, none of which are of even the remotest interest to me. It's just a mess.

    Yeah, that's my opinion too. Whenever I've looked for something it's a total mess and borderline unusable imo.

    Are evasion holding off on jail breaking until ios 8?

    Would have thought they'd have released a jb for 7.1.x by now.

    Wish they'd hurry, I have a couple of classic games I'm aching to play via emulator :/
