How To Fix Cydia Crash After iPhone Jailbreak | The iPhone and iPad Blog by Simon
This worked without having to restore my friends iPad. Cydia seems a lot faster now as well without all that junk around to process.Quote:
Here are the procedures:
1. Launch iPhone Explorer or Use SSH (e.g. Cyberduck for Mac or WinSCP for Windows) to access the file system of your jailbroken iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch
EDIT: I would recommend Diskaid instead for Mac users. Much easier and better.
2. Navigate to /var/lib/apt/lists and delete all files under this folder except the “partial” folder
3. Navigate to /var/lib/dpkg/updates. If there is any files inside, please also remove them.
4. Reboot your iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch.
Once booted up, you should be able to launch Cydia properly.
Thanks. Had same issue yesterday after doing a few Cydia updates and your tip resolved the issue instantly. Much appreciated! W.
