MHY: please list the “other minyonim that wear tefillin in Yerusholayim and Bnei Brak and perhaps elsewhere as well”
I question which Gedolim TRULY gave permission for tefillin in public. R’ Scheinberg and R’ Finkle were talking about bochurim who keep 2 days YT, R’ Vozner and R’ Ulman forbade the Yekke minyan in KS from wearing tefillin. The Gaavad only permitted in private as did R’ Eisemann.
So who are we left with? Only the Gaavad Erloi. So if you are a member of his community you should certainly follow your Rav, though it seems even the vast majority of his own community does not. If you are not Erloi there does not seem to be any grounds to wear tefillin in public.
