Fix Cydia Crashing Dec. 28

December 28, 2009 :: Posted by - SoSly :: Category - News

There is a problem with a particular source this morning. Signs point to it being Zodttd’s repo sending data that Cydia has a problem with. This causes Cydia to go into a crashing loop.

You should NOT need to restore your firmware to fix this problem. Please have patience, a fix is being worked on. If the coming solutions do not help there is still the possibility that a restore may be needed.
Update #1: Some good advice and instructions in the comments below. You can also try the FIXES AND SUGGESTIONS HERE, as the problem is the same as it was then. You must remove the zodttd source list that is causing the problem.

Update #2: A quick fix for some (works only if you have apt7 installed)

  • Log-in as root using MobileTerminal or SSH and run this command:
  • apt-get update
  • This will update your lists and then Cydia should work.

GeoHot has been working around the clock on this unlock and I must say has made the fastest progress I have ever seen on an unlock. Of course Geohot is a workaholic so when he says something is going to get done he doesn’t stop until he’s finished as you can see from the video above it took him 2 days i believe to get a working unlock on the new 05.11.07 baseband. To clear things up yes this will work with the iphone 3G and 3GS check out what was tweeted earlier
