For whatever reason, users who want to downgrade to iOS 8.1.1 from iOS 8.1.2 can do so. Apple is still signing the iOS 8.1.1 firmware, which means that you can downgrade using iTunes.
iOS 8.1.2 was released two days ago, which included a fix for a bug that caused ringtones to disappear for certain users. Jailbreakers did not have anything to worry about as iOS 8.1.2 was jailbreak friendly. The updated TaiG 1.2 can be used to jailbreak iOS 8.1.2. We can’t think of any reason you’d want to downgrade, but anyways we’re sure it is nice to know that you still can.
