If you deliberately stay on 7.1.1 (e.g., for compatibility with certain old tweaks), v1.1.0 is more stable. v1.2.0 introduced some UI glitches on older iPads.

This report is for educational and historical documentation only. Running unsigned kernel‑level software from 2014 carries significant system integrity and privacy risks.

To understand why Pangu v1.1.0 was so important, one must remember the state of the community in early 2014. Apple had released iOS 7.1, a significant update that patched the kernel exploits used by the popular Evasi0n7 jailbreak. For several months, the jailbreak community was in a holding pattern. Users were forced to choose between staying on older, potentially buggy firmware to keep their jailbreak or updating to the smoother iOS 7.1 and losing their tweaks.
