Cydia gets stuck on done: Packages???

[zkm1223]

Hi,

I have upgraded to iOS 5.0.1 on my iPhone 4 GSM. I have jailbroken with redsn0w 0.9.9b9d and I have tried with sn0wbreeze v2.8b11

However when I open cydia, I wait for the stuff to download at the top of the screen. It gets stuck at "done: packages". If I click cancel and try adding sources, the black screen with the writing comes, it seems like its going fine until the end where the progress bar is complete and it says "done: packages". Again it gets stuck here as well.

I cannot get any tweaks or anything. When I click on any sources like BigBoss or repo666 or any of the default ones, nothing comes up. Its just a blank screen.

How can I fix this, it was working fine when I was on 4.3.5. I have tried many times with redsn0w and sn0wbreeze but its always the same

U r adding a pirated repo. Illegal. Immoral. Unethical. No help from here .

I'm not and mine is doing the same.

The ultrasn0w repo is under maintenance. Be patient it will work after a while. And you need to let Cydia refresh it's sources when it runs first time. The speed of your Internet determines how much time it usually takes..

I have let it run for about half an hour and it stays stuck at done: packages.

Also in the past it normally took a few minutes to complete.

I have searched around more on the net and have found a solution.

Step 1: Go to manage>sources

Step 2: Edit> delete all of the sources except Cydia/telesphoreo (saurik)

Step 3: Go to "Changes" page (next to manage at the bottom of the screen)

Step 4: hit refresh (top left)

Step 5: Go back to manage>sources and add sources

It worked for me. I just need the default sources which I initially deleted. Can some please post them here. Thanks
