General Is it even worth jailbreaking with Electra on iOS 11?

FireFume · March 6, 2018

Just wondering if it's even worth jailbreaking with Electra on iOS 11 or waiting for a more stable jailbreak. Been hearing many people having trouble with Electra and wanted to know how bad/good it really is... Recently got a new iPad and not sure what to do!

Its your choice. I would personally wait for saurik's JB

The latest update def seems the most stable. It does still go to safe mode where previous things would log an error u never see. I've noticed some issues with sending messages back and forth sometimes causing crashes when doing settings, so I've just skipped postnotifications and read directly from plists. It's slower for changes to take place, but seem way more stable.

At OP, I feel like if u don't like fixing things that break semi frequently, maybe hold off, or if u want certain tweaks now that are compatible, go for it.

@Fadexz Forgot to mention, you said way back when I did Stylish you got it just for the dock height slider. With ppl like u in mind, that prolly didn't want bells, whistles and xtra features that could bring possible bugs or conflicts, I made a simple "Custom Dock" tweak- just 2 sliders for height and opacity, and an on/off switch. It's been in my beta repo for long time, but was just updated for the dock height method on iOS 11 like a month or two ago. Don't think I'm ever going to add it to BigBoss tho since it's part of my update for "Stylish11".

PM if u are interested in a deb or repo link. Wasn't trying to spam this thread, just sorta happened. ?

I mean I've never had 1 issue since the beginning of betas, no freezing, nothing.

@i0s_tweak3r Yeah, I think I found a tweak a little while ago that actually changed the dock height but IDK if I got it or remember it.

It would be cool, although a big project for you but a springboard customiser tweak for iOS 11 would be cool, like HideMeX or Springtomize but for working for iOS 11. As I haven't found a tweak that can modify the UI yet for iOS 11.

I have my phone running perfectly fine after jailbreaking with Electra and it is infact stable.

mine freezes every once in awhile but nothing major. I think the latest update made electra run smoother. Also who knows when saurik is going to release his jb so if you wait on that it maybe awhile
