Consistant Crashes

[dazzastark]

Hi all,

I'm having an issue with Cydia. Once I launch the application, the 'refreshing changes' or 'updating changes' (whatever it is called) does not add anything to the changes tab. If I try to refresh again, the application crashes. I've tried using the app-get remove cydia and reinstalling. Same with deleting the .plist

Does anyone have any ideas? I really don't want to have to restore and rejailbreak.

I'm running an 8GB 3G with 2.1 firmware.

Thanks in advance!

I found a solution that worked for myself.


For anyone who is experiencing this issue, try this:

Delete BigBoss source via OpenSSH

At /private/etc/apt/sources.list.d/
Delete everything, except saurik.list

At /private/var/lib/apt/lists/
Delete the 3 BigBoss related files.

Reboot, start Cydia, hit Manage and Packages. Remove all Repository packages except the Saurik one. I suggest rebooting the phone again after this step.

Start Cydia and install either community sources or BigBoss source. I do not recommend installing the 'All Sources' package as this may have led to my problem in the first place.

Anyway, enjoy!
