Hi, I am a new member here but have had iPad 2 for over a year now,but just a few days ago I see that I cannot get into my setting. When I tap on the settings tab it starts to open but just kicks me back to the home screen. It is jail broken and on 6.1ios, I have tried powering off and restore in iTunes with no luck any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thanks

The odds are pretty good that you have a recently installed tweak that is affecting the way the iPad runs. Think back to when the Settings app was working properly - what did you install since then? It may not seem as if a tweak would affect operations, but stranger things have happened. I just heard about a spelling check tweak that prevented pictures from being sent via iMessage. So, yeah, misbehaving tweaks can do strange stuff. :)

So, to start, remove any tweaks you've installed since the problem began. If that fixed it, good.

If not, could you post a list of the tweaks you do have installed. Maybe we can help ID the culprit.

P.S. And, since you talk about a jail broken iPad, I've taken the liberty of moving your post over to the Hacking section. Thanks for your understanding.
