Cydia starts, loads, and shuts down?!

[ralle990]

Hi all.

I have a problem with Cydia, when i press the icon on my jailbrokoen (blackrain) Iphone 3GS it starts up, say: loading data, and then after a few seconds, it just shuts down to the menu on my Iphone.

Have some of you the same problem and what can i do to fix it?

Thanks

[s1l3nt]

[eatdirt1]

IT SUCKS, and i have looked in other posts, and theres is a lot of deleting things with SSH, and i have tryd to find out what to do, but i cant find out how to get SSH on to my Iphone

Me too, but Rock is doing the same thing. No problems getting to the internet, just to cydia and Rock...this sucks

Working here now 100%, used iFile on my device

Navigate to the /var/lib/apt/lists/ folder. Delete the 3 x zodttd files
Navigate to /private/etc/apt/sources.list.d Delete the zodttd file
Then launch cydia.

Mine just started. Weird cause earlier today I went and updtaed sources with noissues

[ralle990]

How do i get "iFile" when cydia cant start up ?

[smeeshum]

If you ain't got ifile use ssh

[ralle990]

I dont have SSH or iFile, so how do i get them ?

Hey folks, I've been searching all over for a solution to my Cydia problem, which apparently many others are having. Basically, I uninstalled some themes with ssh this morning and suddenly found that Cydia would crash after seeming to start up. I tried the various 'get-apt' commands suggested on these forums and elsewhere, but the commands didn't work.

smeeshum's instructions posted above(and quoted here) totally worked for me. didn't have to re-jailbreak or anything, just deleted the files he suggested from my PC in the ssh client i have installed which is filezilla.

Navigate to the /var/lib/apt/lists/ folder. Delete the 3 x zodttd files
Navigate to /private/etc/apt/sources.list.d Delete the zodttd file
Then launch cydia.

Hope this helps

It's safe to reinstall the zodttd source by searching for it in Cydia now. The errors been fixed.

Had the same issue until now. Went to rock app, deleted the zoddt source, respringed and cydia works perfect now. Anyone know why this source was causing the cydia crash? Guess should leave it off?

It seemns to me that this is working for all, and that must leve me as a retad, sorry. BUT HOW CAN I GET "ssh client" WHEN MY CYDIA CANT START UP, DONT YOU GET "the ssh client" FROM CYDIA?!

sorry guys, im just a little frustrated not to get this please explane it to me.

[tizzi]

It's work perfectly for me, thanks a lots

[residuetiger]

ralle990,

you can use the Rock installer(if you have it) to download open SSH. If you don't have Rock installed along with Cydia, I'm not sure what you can do, but I'm sure someone else with more expertise can assist you in that case. Keep us posted regardless.
