tried it but failed. it still happen.. any necessary workout that u might suggest?

but for now, i will just wait till the next firmware release, dev team release the jailbreak, then i will do update+jailbreak.. pretty sure it will cure this nuisance..

yes i have iBlacklist only. i dont use third party sms apps.

but this thing happened recently, i mean, quite a long time after i installed iblacklist.

hi all, back to my own question, i would like to share the solution, just for the sake of helping others..

ok, referring to my problem, i didnt see any solution at all except to restore the firmware and jailbreak again... but yesterday something funny happened. my cydia crash, for the first time... luckily i've browsed the the topic related before and when i face that problem, the solution just stumbled upon my mind and i tried it and it works. here's the link on how to overcome the cydia crash problem..

okay now my cydia is back to working state again, and it manage to find an update to latest version of iBlacklist... well as usual i upgrade it, without any hassle..

after upgrading complete, i respring and tried out the iblacklist and it works as usual... to my surprise, the sms problem that i faced before, disappear completely!

if u asked me the detail, i dont know. and i dont want to play any guessing game.. but i hope with what im sharing all the gurus and iphone user here could figure out something when encounter the same problem.. anyway thanks all for helping me!

dear frozzbyte

i have tried the method u mentioned above, but the outcome is totally different.

refer back to my 1st post about the problem, screen shot obviously shows the symptom. the sms privacy feature in iblacklist did not results the symptom that i faced. i have tried to turn on the feature and what it did was simply disable the sms notification. no tones, no popup at all.. i turn on the sms privacy, use my other handphone to send a sms and no notification/tone at all, but it shows the new sms in inbox.

while upgrading the iblacklist do solve the problem, but i dont think sms privacy feature has anything to do with the problem.
