Unfortunately like previous new jailbreaks, issues may arise. One in particular caught my attention since it has to do with service, but it seems to be affecting only a certain carrier.
Sprint! Twitter and the Chronic Dev Team’s IRC channel are filled with users of CDMA iPhone 4S’ that are suffering from “No Service” issues. Sprint seems to be affected more than Verizon users but the problem appears to only affect CDMA phones.
@planetbeing was working with users on IRC to try to find a quick fix but it appears that it will take some time and research before a hard fix is found and implemented.
My friend was affected by this issue and it appears that the only fix for now is a restore. The issue is a weird one also. Some users are loosing service immediately after the jailbreak and others (like my friend) have a fully functioning phone for a few hours before the “No Service” issue appears. Regardless once the phone looses it’s connection it doesn’t return till a restore is performed.
My advice to any and all CDMA users is to hold off on jailbreaking their devices until this is resolved which should not take more than a day or two.
