[Cyida On 2.0] Weird behaviour after latest update.

Hey all,

Well , last night when i updated cydia , i had lots of appstore apps installed ,and some other cydia-apps .
After the update ( and the SQL update ) , i have most of my appstore apps not to be working ( Crash on launch ) ,like netnewswire and shazam . I also can see no content when i lauch the ipod app.

I thought a restore would fix all those problems , so i restored to 2.0 pwned in DFU mode and everything went ok , updated cydia again , and installed my appstore apps and some other cydia apps... synced ... and problem is still there .. ipod shows no contents and most apps crash on launch.

HELP !

I'd really appreciate it ..

PS : I have a Mac , a PC and both PwnageTool/WinPWN with iTunes 7.7.1.11

this is the 3rd time i get no help here... guys please !

it sounds like what ever u installed last has f***ed up ur permissions

hmmm

weird problem

so how many apps do u have and how many of these do u think dont work??

what i would do is install Open SSH frm cydia and then loginto your iphone using winscp or putty on windows or use terminal from a mac and view the files

go to the /application folder and open any apps folder (eg. Enigmo.app) and select all the files winthin and set the permission to 0755 (or 755) and then try to re-launch enigmo (or the app for which u set the permission)

but this is a very stupid process for which we should look into a solution coz u cannot do this every time there is an updateor u install a new app......

hope some one can help

let me know if the permisiion thing worked for u

sorry that u havnt got ur ansers earlier

EDIT

are u using the same ipsw (fw file) again and agin coz what i would suggest is u create a new custome FW with pwnage and restore with that coz the custome FW u using now might be the problem

also upgrade to the latest winpwn or pwnage before creating the FW

Finally , someone replies , thank you !.

Well , 1st , i have 78 appstore apps installed ( i know , its freakin' alot ) .. all the free ones dont work + the ipod has absolutely no contents ( although its there when you browse itunes ) ..tried permissions , no luck.

on both restores i used a freshly created IPSW with Latest PwnageTool on my OSX86.

that is a weird problem that i cant get solved.

Thanks.

1.1.4 had a 72 icon limit which im sure is fixed in 2.0, so clearly the number of apps is not the problem!!!

i would suggest u try another DFU restore with a fresh custome ipsw with a freshly downloaded STOCK ipsw using winpwn and windows and install only a few apps......say 10-15 and see if u experience the same proble

i have 42 apps + 15 stiock + cydia = 58 apps:D not ur 78 but not bad

latest winpwn is WinPwn 2.0.0.3

Thanks but that didnt work for 2 times already , so its useless to try again restoring and pwning and stuff..

good news is that its solved .. i removed every appstore app i have ( including the no-longer-there-cracked NetShare ) , and ipod is back with contents in sync ! now reinstalled all of em , and boom !! its working !!!

im glad it worked
