    [Help]Why does iOS 6.1.2 update is not appearing in my iPad3?

    The evasi0n jailbreak prevents you from seeing any available update to IOS on your device because installing an update OTA on any jailbroken iPad will result in a complete failure.

    You CANNOT update a JB device. You must choose to use the "restore" option using iTunes on a PC. Before you do that you should take a full backup so that it can be restored onto the device after the latest version of IOS has been installed.
    15" MacBookPro with Retina Display 16GB 3.4GHz i7 256GB | iPad4 WiFi 32GB 6.1.2 (evasi0n) | iPad3 4G 64GB 6.1.2 (evasi0n) | iPad2 3G 64GB 5.1.1 (redsn0w) | iPad1 3G 64GB 4.3.3 (jbme) |

    Are you completely sure about this? I installed the cydia tweak NoUpdate right after jail breaking with evasi0n. So I could not have known this. But your saying there's a no update tweak built into the evasi0n jailbreak.

    Is it safe to say if we have a device jail broken w/ Cydia, we can delete the NoUpdate tweak if installed?

    Seconded. IIRC, it even says it in the description somewhere. I'll get you the source.

    EDIT: In the details in Cydia

    Version 0.3-1 disables the OTA update daemons, so that the Settings app will not prompt you to update iOS to 6.1.1. (Note that OTA updates do not work on jailbroken devices
