Sounds like a tweak you recently installed has corrupted mobile substrate. Try and see if you can restore the iPhone.

but now i'm doing the full restore to ori ipsw and re-jbing again as advised by az and rath, we'll see how it goes, so far so good

Iphone is just like a computer..sometimes there is conflict in registry..missing files..error here and there..install and uninstall programs too much also can cause all of the above

aaahhhhhhhhhhhhh
restored and it was fine, jailbroke again and it was fine
but now after the proper jailbreak (it went through completely fine), my cydia won't open! i click it, and it wont even open, just crashes
i used to latest absinthe version 0.4
if i want to re-jailbreak it, do i need to restore my ipsw again?! or can i just run absinthe again? will that work?

edit:
nevermind that last outburst, hmmm...rebooted my phone and cydia works now whistling.gif
blush.gif hehehe

Restore my iPhone yesterday as I was unable to make any calls/sms etc. After the restore, still cannot make any calls, restored my backup, still cannot make any calls. Went to the telco, apparently I went over the limit, seems like for the last 4 days I have used up all my data limit and went 500MB above (sh!t) so had to pay the extra 1000 due to that. It seems the bloody Sims Freeplay which keeps on downloading the update and failing and keeps on downloading and failing has used the cellular data (probably due to the 3G unrestrictor that I bought .... eff me .... that was an expensive bug from the bloody game (my kids love to play it) ... damn expensive one ... deleted the stupid game.

So this month I have no data ....

So since my phone is working, need to jailbreak it again. Thought of doing it without a fresh restore and run Absinthe .... took 40 minutes and it was still doing some sort of sync so cancelled that. Did a fresh restore and ran Absinthe again, took less than 2 minutes this time with an empty 4s.

Restore my backup ... everything was good (took 30 minutes with all the apps I had), deleted the stupid game again ...

Ran Cydia, BigBoss repo was down ... so had to wait until the morning before BigBoss is up and running again. Installed AptBackup and restored my Cydia apps .... tok 2 minutes and the phone rebooted. All my tweaks are there (yes success ... never tried this before so quite happy with the results).

Then I noticed that all my appstore apps are gone ..... What the Cuss .... so looks like this afternoon I have to do a fresh restore and do this all overe again ...

Note to self: need to delete that stupid game again ... damn.

holy cowwww, 1k extra for ur data usage az? dammmmmnnnnnnnn shocking.gif
hahaa my sister played that game on my iphone too, hasn't caused any problems to me so far, cant you just update the game through your itunes so that your kids can still enjoy it? smile.gif
oh btw im sure u know this already, but in my case, i turn off app updates/purchases with cellular data under the itunes store settings. would that help preserve your childrens happiness? tongue.gif

No worries rathian. No need to uninstall, just make sure if there is an update you read the reviews first. The latest update is buggy as hell and this is the one that got me in trouble.

We learn from our mistakes smile.gif

eh one more thing just to be safe, cause kids like to play and press, turn off the IAP option just in case too i guess az, or they might buy stuff from in the game

hey anyone know of a flashlight app that keeps the flashlight on even when the app is closed? but of course the app is running in the background
the thing is, i want to turn on the flashlight then go to a photography app, usually photography apps (e.g. photosynth or pano) they don't have flash function
so i wanted an app to turn on the flashlight then when i switch to the photography app the flashlight is still turned on
so far all the flashlight apps i have tried, when i open the app, the flash comes on, but when i switch to another app the flashlight turns off
any help would be greatly appreciated!

Someone with sbsettings wanna test this out?
My observation..

Putting iPhone 4s on edge (off 3G) uses MORE BATTERY
Guess because iPhone continue search for 3G??

Cos when i off 3G my memory left is always around 80mb...
If I keep 3G on even on wifi my memory left is 200+

Anyone wanna confirm?
*
haha i'm not sure about the memory left issue, but the battery drain is not there
without 3G (only on EDGE) my battery lasts so much longer even with all my cydia tweaks.

iOS 5.1 jailbreak is available.

haha dude i know you're trying to help but don't just say like this without quoting a link, you'll give everyone who's waiting anxiously a heart attack
and also, you have to give more details eidil, like only ios5.1 on A4 devices can be jailbroken, if im not mistaken

iphone 4s and ipad2 users should not update to 5.1 yet

Do be reminded that the latest jailbreak for ios5.1 is a untethered jailbreak..

i think you mean tethered, or semi-tethered.
untethered means u don't need to re-jailbreak everytime u restart your phone. smile.gif

if you have 5.0.1 SHSH saved, then u are able to downgrade to 5.0.1
*
sorry but from what I've read, I think even if you have 5.0.1 SHSH saved, you can't downgrade to that
the only downgrade available is if you're using iphone 4 and you have saved your 4.x.x SHSH, then can downgrade to that
i don't think there's a way to downgrade from 5.1 to 5.0.1 even with SHSH saved
i'm not sure whats the problem here, but i just remember that 5.1 can't be downgraded to 5.0.1
Az knows better, wait until he explains why cannot lol

lol u guys arrrr, should read the post completely and thoroughly first hahaha
i haven't checked redmondpie today so i just glanced through the link you linked to me
and first thing that caught my eye is this:

"Important Note: Before you begin, keep in mind that the iPhone 4S cannot be downgraded to an earlier version of iOS, unless Apple is signing that particular firmware version to which you’re downgrading to. Only the iPhone 4, 3GS, iPad 1 and the iPod touch users can downgrade back to both iOS 5.0.1 (custom firmware only) and iOS 4.x as long as they have SHSH blobs and APTicket saved for the firmware they are downgrading to. iPad 2 users can only downgrade back to iOS 4.x as long as they have saved SHSH blobs for it. You cannot save SHSH blobs once Apple has stopped signing the firmware you want to downgrade to."

so once apple stops signing firmware for 5.0.1 you can't downgrade if you're using iphone 4s. problem is, i don't know if apple has stopped signing, that one i guess you need to search on google?

hey az, extra work for u hee hee
but thanks for keeping this thread updated man, damn useful
anyway
for the iphone 4
can be jailbroken too,
here's the link : http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=20519
using redsnow

BUT there's a clause
if previously locked iphone 4 users update through iTunes, they'll run into some problems
so they need to update it without upgrading their baseband and the link to this properly is here :
http://www.iclarified.com/entry/index.php?enid=20516

thanks dude

Most likely because a lot of people do not want to lose the untethered jailbreak. The only reason I would go to 5.1 is if something catastrophic happens to my wife's iPhone 4 and I had to restore to 5.1. Otherwise, no.
