Cydia download problem

Not sure if this is the right spot but thought it might have something to do with the Blackra1n jailbreak I did!!

I download Blackra1n and everything seemed to work fine. I then installed Cydia, and went in and "installed" a theme. Now instead of doing this;

"Step 6: You will now see a black screen with words going across it. Don't worry, you don't need to know! When the installation is complete, you will see a button telling you either to "Return to Cydia" or "Restart Springboard".

It will have to exit Cydia and restart the Springboard for certain types of apps, including packages that mess with the iPhone's operating system. If it does, just wait for it to come back to your iPhone menu"


It showed the words going accross the screen, but instead of saying "Return to Cydia" or "Restart Springboard" it says "Reboot Device". When I reboot it, iTunes tells me its in recovery mode and I need to restore the phone. When I do this, everything gets set back to factory default. What am I doing wrong??

Instead of exiting the phone by selecting Reboot Device exit out of Cydia (use your Home button)and reboot it with an alternative method. I use SBsettings myself, but you can always just use your Sleep/Wake Button by pressing it and holding it until the slider appears and shut it down that way.
