com.apple.mobile.installation.plist freezes my iphone - help

[zurie]

if i go into /private/var/mobile/Library/Caches/

and delete
com.apple.mobile.installation.plist

my phone boots up instantly. but if I do a respring, customize boss prefs, install a update to intelliscreen, or anything else, my phone whitewheel spins at the apple boot logo, and eventually freezes and never boots.

if i SSH in during the apple booting process and delete com.apple.mobile.installation.plist my phone instantly springs on and works, all my apps work, and everything looks normal.


but... i have to delete com.apple.mobile.installation.plist basically anytime it's built in that cache folder.

as well as this issue, I end up locking my phone up and can't fix it unless im at a computer, which is problematic when I am away from my house. I just can't install or reboot or do anything without fear of freezing my phone.

how can I fix this problem? where is this com.apple.mobile.installation.plist coming from? i removed all my icons off springboard with categories / poof and i still get the issues but this time my com.apple.mobile.installation.plist is smaller size in bytes.

I read there was a file or script called cachedel that supposedly removed it on every reboot but I can't find it on cydia or anywhere and I don't really wannt run some random extra file to make my phone work when everyone else has theirs working.

any idea's or anyone else experience this issue and know a good fix? it can't be a phone restore because when i delete the file it boots and everything is working fine. its gotta be a corrupted install of a app or something? duplicate app install? or something??? anyone with ideas? thanks!

iphone OS 2.0.2
winterboard, quickgold, intelliscreen, 5 icon dock, mobilesubstrate, mobilesafety, etc

i solved it myself, if anyone else has this problem what I did to fix it was go into

private/var/mobile/Applications/
and delete all the folders in that directory.

then resync with iTunes and it will copy back all your applications.

did this and my phone works beautifully now
