Intermittent signal loss where rebooting temporarily fixes it

I have a jailbroken iPhone 6 on iOS 9.0.2.

Lately my phone has been acting up.

Initially it was just GPS signal issues, where waze says no signal but after driving for 15 km or so, it came back. Now, the radius of accuracy is 1500 m and hardly locks.

Then I got a smart case and it worked fine even though I am on 9.0.2 when > 9.2 is required. Now I get issues with it charging/using it, and get various unsupported errors.

Both of which are ok I can deal with until new j/b is out, or iPhone 7 in September. But now, the AT&T logo will vanish every hour or every day, it seems to be random, then it will show no service. It will stay that way until I reboot the phone, then it is fine again,

Today the phne go to 40C disabling the flash, then no service. I don't know if it is related as the phpne was pretty cool on the most recent no service.

Also, audio notifications of texts doesn't always pl;ay during the same conversation even thogh sound is on.

Is thre anything I can do to fix the service issues? The fact rebooting fixes it makes less ense.

Ideas?

Thanks.

this is typical with a jailbreak, my fix for this was to back it up and re-jailbreak if u can after restoring to the original back up you made when u first jail broke it, seems to always work for me and in my experience i have to jailbreak them twice before it will work correctly for me

I have been jailbreaking since ipod touch first came out (while not a phone) but i never seen such a sheer amount of problems that started to cascade slowly but it snow balled to what it is now. Since the 9.3.x is out, would i be able to reinstall without upgrading?

i would say that if you still have your original backup from before u jail broke, i done see why u wouldnt be able to, but you know how apple works just as well as i do and they love throwing curve balls, and i dont doubt your skills at jail breaking, its been in my experience its a crap shoot on how well these mini pc's accept the jail break programming thats all i was getting at, i have had some that take it first time no problem, and some that will NEVER and when i say never i mean NEVER take the jailbreak process

Yeah I don't know if it is some sort of corruption or a hardware / cable I can replace from buying something here. I rather not go to out of warranty repair when I will buy the 7 soon enough, but the phone seems to be getting worse and worse.

Well the best way to test would be to restore back to normal iOS and then see if u still have the issues of u do then I would say that it could be hardware, if it goes back to normal working order then it's the jailbreak
