I recently installed the Photoalbums+ for ipad tweak on cydia...been using it all morning making new albums and transferring pics. all of a sudden my photos app crashed. I tried to open it back up and nothing shows then it crashes again. I tried respringing and rebooting with no luck. All the pics and albums are accessible via 3rd party apps that access the photo Iibrary (PS Express and such). Does anyone have any idea on how I can get the photos app working again?

Apple has gotten smarter and has been working on protecting their apps from jailbreak. If you mess too much with the apps, they will crash and die. I was changing pics in safari with ifile, and after changing a couple pics, it crashed and never worked again. I had to restore. I assume your problem is similar.
