hey, i was having the same problems for a while, then i went to the private/etc/apt/sources.list.d, and opened te cydia.list file. in here, i removed the sources that were giving me cache problems and the pop-ups, then hit save. resrping, and cydia works beautifully. all the sources appeared and are fully updated. hope i helped

The problem is caused by the incorrect added sources to Cydia.

The solution is first to download Cyfix GUI from cydia.This program will remove the problematic and incorrect sources from cydia. but you need to first identify the incorrect sources.

To identify the incorrect sources you need to do SSH into your device using Winscp (freeware) or use ifile which don't require pc.
(this method uses Winscp to determine the incorrect sources)
1.open Winscp and type your devices IP address ion Host name section.
2.Type "root" in user name section and "alpine" in password section and press login.
3.go to the directory /private/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ and find Cydia.list
4. open this file with notepad or double click on it. now you will see something like this:

deb Welcome to Cydia.hackulo.us! ./
deb Index of / ./
deb Homepage of repo.beyoip.com ./
deb http://cydia.*************/ ./
deb HackStor Repository - MyRepoSpace.com ./
deb http://cydia.iphonecake.com/ ./
deb http://iphonecake.com/Cydia ./ ----->this is wrong address


Don't forget that you might have something different but all of the sources must like the ones above one except the one that is written wrong address.

Now since you determined the wrong address copy it and put it into Cyfix GUI and press fix. Repeat this to remove all the sources and Respring your device before you open up your Cydia.

(it took me 1 day and half plus learning 5 types of commands for fix mine but this one is the easiest why but i found out the hard way. Hope it will be helpful)

I got the same problem.but now it's OK.thanks for your share!!!

i have the same issue. i deleted all the sources through SSH and still Cydia hangs while downloading packages when I add any new source. I don't know what to do, any ideas? i tried apt-get remove cydia and re-installing it again, but Winscp shows me error 'command 'apt-get remove cydia' failed with return error 127 and error message -sh line 6: apt-get command not found'

To get rid of bad repo links you should use Cyfix (it's for the console).

Cyfix for console?
Do mean mobile terminal?
I have the same problem.
I rejailbroke already
but still have same issue.
I don't really know how to use terminal.
