My jailbreak went fine haven't been able to use bite since it's not updated for 5S yet :(. Pretty much the only thing I jail broke for that and color keyboard.

Got 5s for a Christmas gift, was stock for all of the time it took me to activate the phone then switch lines?
Jailbreak has been pretty rocky since then. Only had F.lux working for a while. Did the plist editing and creation for hidden system settings, Then saurik released cydia substrate and my mail and Safari stopped working so I had to restore. Bite is still a no go. I have it installed but it doesn't appear anywhere. I know it's not updated for 64 bit yet, but I figured I would try.
Remembering what I remember about you, you should jailbreak for the month until 7.1 is released? then go back to stock!
For the week I was jailbroken but tweakless I didn't miss much. (iOS 7 is real good)
I REALLY miss bite though, can't wait for that.

I saw the subject now, oops.

It's supposed to be updated for the 5s within a week. They've put out a few updates over the past few days. I'd imagine he's working on getting things stable for iOS7 before adding the extra fun of modifying it for the 5s. But, the frequent updates show he's keeping busy with it.

I am in the same boat... If you do it let me know.

I might bite the bullet and JB again also.

JB is interesting me I eventually got to try it. Logic tells me you don't need it but curiosity tells me different

I'm super excited now cause I saw on twitter there is a tweak coming out called BioProtect that's going to let us use TouchID for apps and the task switcher.

i hear ya. it's the potential battery drain and little glitches that get me every time.. it will happen. AND of course the fact that once the new OS is out we cannot restore back to the desired OS to JB again (correct?)

i think i am starting to talk myself out of it now

That happens to me all the time. I decide "ok I'm gonna jailbreak" and 5 minutes later I think of the pros and cons and talk myself out :/
