at one point last night it was stated in the app on the main page that modmyi's source was broken in such a way that it would Keep cydia from opening if you refreshed sources. So that explains the problems. It doesn't say that anymore so I'll assume everything is ok now. I'm still kinda wary though.

i TOTALLY agree! i look at all these apps and fell like going to a computer programmer class at my school to ask them what the heck all these apps are!:P

That's because it is indeed partly intended for programmers/code writers. Better check the apps with the ones in 'installer' to be on the safe side, lol.

Needs some time before Cydia could be replacement for Installer. Tried to installl PocketGuitar and Pianist through installer. PocketGuitar crash back to SB. Could be a permission problem, but that should Cydia be able to do right. Pianist complains about not finding the sample files. Both these install without a problem with Installer.

Also tried to install MobileTerminal, it works but on the prompt it says "I have no name!" what is that and how do i remove it? Didn't have it with the terminal i had through Installer.

First of all, I love this app. It's way better than installer, and I think it should definitely replace it also.

However, when I installed it I started having problems with installer starting, it would crash on startup 60 percent of the time. But after using Cydia a little more, installer does not work at all, it acts like it is booting up and then drops out.

I'm not saying Cydia caused this but it's weird.

Great soft...
keep it rocking!

I thought the app limit was due to Apple springboard restrictions not Installer's?

[raptorjr]

Tried to install Guitarist and the installation worked but not Guitarist. Couldnt find any guitar samples. Same thing with Pianist. Installed with Installer instead and everything worked fine.
One thing that there is not so many soruces for Cydia, but when the installed applications dont work i think i will stick with Installer.

raptorjr : You can stick with Installer but I see no way to remove Cydia. I guess I just leave it on the iphone!?

[dazzler]

Help!!

Im a learner only had my iphone a few days, anyhoo

I've jailbroke my iphone using iplus 2, everything going great until i installed cydia, i now cannot login either through terminal or SSH in via cute ftp now

Like my password has changed does anyone know how to get back in and remove cydia completely, and revert back priot to install

Many thanks

I've had absolutely no issues with Cydia at all. I noticed that BigBoss has now got his repo into Cydia as well.

I think maybe its a long way off replacing installer... I installed it via Installer itself, and yes, it can be uninstalled the same way, if needs be, but given that it replaces the BSD subsystem, and continually retrieves updates to that when needed, I don't think I would want to uninstall it in any case, for fear of leaving my phone "broken" and having to start over. Its no great imposition having both on board.

I'm gradually replacing apps installed via installer with those installed via Cydia but there aren't a vast number of dupes at the moment. I am also removing sources from installer that I have in Cydia to avoid *that* kind of duplication. Only time will tell if this was a silly thing to do.

Poetic_folly, you have just officially convinced me to download that.

[iphonehacker123]

Hey Cydia i think will bet better than intsaller because its faster and better run and doesnt take an hour to refresh Yay!

[TatesMan]

i removed cydia without reinstalling bsd (didnt know that i should do that) now my installer always give me package download failed everytime even after refreshing
so i cant reinstall BSD
any solution ??

EDIT: nevermind fixed
