Hi, for what it's worth, I'm not upgrading my iPhone 4S as yet. My
current jailbreak solution gives me most of what people are now just
enjoying with iOS 6. It's true that I don't have the new Maps, the
Passbook, and the various Voice Over fixes, but for the tweaks,
capabilities, and other areas of the iPhone which jailbreaking has
offered me I'm good for now.
I've backed up my shsh blobs just in case, but I'm set. If you want to
upgrade when the iOS 6 jailbreak is out, then I'd recommend getting the
app called xbackup from cydia. It will backup the list of jb packages as
well as their layout on the home screen if I remember correctly. I don't
think it backs up any actual data, but the normal iPhone backup will do
this.
Good luck.

I have a jail broken iPhone 4S running IOS 5.1.1. Now that IOS 6 is out,
what are my options? I've Googled around a bit, and I've learned some
thinngs, but I still have a few questions. Also, I'm not in a hurry to
update, so I've got time to figure this out or wait for a jail break to
IOS 6.
I used Absynthe to jail break my phone. Should I just wait for IOS 6 to
be jail broken before doing any updates?
If I wait to update to IOS 6 until it's jail broken, what's the
procedure? Do I back things up, update to IOS 6 and then jail break?
Will I lose anything or are their any other precautions I should take?
If I don't want to wait, what can I do to get up to IOS 6, just back
things up and then download and install the update?
Like I said, I've been Googling a bit, so don't hesitate to just give me
a pointer or two.
