Cydia Unable to Load
I know that there are similar topic to this one, however I am getting a different error message than those topics.
When I load up Cydia, I get a Network Error. In the main body of the screen it says 'Unable To Load (Can't Find Host)'
I have a full WiFi connection and every other network application works fine, so what's up and how do I fix it?
Thanks,

could be several things.
Repo's servers are down.
Your network is weak or down.
Your phone is lagging..hence timed-out.
It happened to me a few times...try rebooting the phone and get back in Cydia. or wait til tomorrow and try it again.

Can't see it being any of those problems as Safari, App Store and every other network application still work fine

I tried powering off then starting back up and it still won't work.
I don't know it it's the repositories being down as I can't even load the Home page of Cydia.

Also, is everybody else's Cydia working fine, if somebody could check that would determine whether it's just me or not.Last edited by Chilling; 10-12-2008 at 03:24 AM. Reason: Automerged Doublepost

Cydia is down. I cant get in neither.
At least now we know it's not your phone's network prob.
It'll be back up tomorrow, I'm sure. It had happened before. Saurik prolly shutting it down for maintainance.

Cydia works. It's just the main page that won't load for some odd reason. All my sources refreshed and I found an update for Netatalk, which downloaded just fine, meaning Sauriks servers aren't down.

Damn. Looks like Apple have finally paid off some Russian hackers to bring down Cydia. Well, it was good while it lasted.
