7.0.4 jailbreak bootloop - any option besides 7.1??

[blazer22]

I have a jailbroken ipad 3 wifi on 7.0.4. Yesterday, cydia was running some updates which resulted in a reboot and the ipad started in a bootloop. I was able to start it by holding volume up. I tried to restore my personal backup in itunes, but after the restore it was still bootlooping unless I hold volume up at boot. I have no cydia icon, so I tried running evasi0n7 1.0.7 again, but it said the ipad is already jailbroken. I ran it again anyway, but it seemed to have no effect. I also tried restoring with official Apple update 7.0.4 in dfu mode but that gives me error 3194.

Before I restore to 7.1, is there any option to retain 7.0.4 with jailbreak?

Thanks in advance.

I don't think so. You may have to restore to iOS 7.1.

If you have ILEX RAT installed, attempt to run the rat command via SSH. If not, go for Semi-Restore. If neither works, you'll most likely have to restore afresh to 7.1

Thanks for the replies. I had no luck restoring so I had to update to 7.1. Hopefully there will be a jailbreak before too long.

Don't count in it. Pod2g recently just said that they will only work little for iOS 7.1, probably even iOS 8 as apple already patched the exploit, so its gonna be pretty hard for then to do it. We may have to depend on other hackers out there.

Not for the A5+ devices. The iPhone 4 has a tethered jailbreak courtesy for RageBreak, but only for the 4. The iPhone 4S+ and the iPad2+ will most likely not receive a jailbreak unless @ih8sn0w decides to burn his iboot exploit by releasing a public jailbreak. Since the iboot exploit is patachable via software updates, he's holding onto it until the last possible second or whenever he thinks it's worth releasing
