Reinstall Cydia only? Possible?

**TheYoungHustla** · 10-27-2008, 01:00 PM

Is this possible?
Without a restore?

**Iblunt420** · 10-27-2008, 01:10 PM

Yes this is possible. Go into cydia, go to search, and type in cydia. Once you locate the cydia application, click on it. Click on modify on the top right, And you can choose to 'remove' or 're-install' the application. Or any app. Good luck

In Cydia, go to Manage then Packages then Cydia Installer. Tap Modify and you can Reinstall.

Ive never done it before mind.

the problem is, my Cydia will crash once opened

**Iblunt420** · 10-27-2008, 01:45 PM

You can SSH into your iphone. your apps are located in a folder called STASH/Applications. you can delete the folder from here. But then you will need quikpawn to reinstall cydia/installer. you won't have to re-jail break

Can I do this w/ Pwnage Tool, or only QuickPwn?

**Iblunt420** · 10-27-2008, 01:47 PM

if you do not know how to SSH into your phone i can post it on here later

**TheYoungHustla** · 10-27-2008, 02:00 PM

I know how to SSH into my iPhone
So I just delete Cydia under /Applications
Then open QuickPwn and download the stock iPhone 2.1 firmware(I'm also unlocked) and and then what?

**Iblunt420** · 10-27-2008, 04:14 PM

1. In SSH, go to: var/lib/dgpk
2. Double-click on status-old and copy ALL script in there.
3. Create new file called: status
4. Paste all script into the file status
5. save and then now ON YOUR IPHONE go into terminal
type su and password is alpine
6. run these commands:
apt-get remove cydia
(Type in what it says to)
apt-get update
LASTLY!!!
apt-get install Cydia

My Cydia closes as soon as it opens (blank window for 0.5-1 second).

What can I do to fix it?

I have 1.1.4 JailBroken and Unlocked with iLiberty.
