ok the phone is working beautifuly except for one thing...cydia keeps crashing when loading. it gets all the way to "updating release" then times out on reload. ive searched for a solution and found this [Pwnage 2.02][Cydia Crash][Solution] - Hackint0sh but it makes NO sense to me at all. can i get some help please?

Here is a link to some info that may help your Cydia crashes. I actually had the same problem and this cured it for me.
Also there is a zip file you can download to try and cure your problem also if you are unfamiliar with SSH. Follow this link and follow the directions.

Glad it's almost all running for you Yosh!

I just tried Cydia and it won't load for me. However it's been faultless up until then so I'm sure it's a problem their end (bit like websites going down on occasions). Saw earlier there's loads of posts about Cydia but hadn't read them as I wasn't having a problem before. Guess I'll read up now but will give it 24hrs before I decide anything needs doing.

Hi again, the former 1.1.4 is still working like a dream not at 3.0

I now attempted to do the exact same process with a G2, 2.2.1 phone. I got through the whole process, and when i get to the iTunes restore, it says the new custom firmware is not compatible. I am what I think is DFU mode. When I try to turn it on it stays dark. Before that happened iTunes did detect my norwegian sim saying it could/would not update as it had the wrong sim. I can get the phone lite back up if I unplug, and restore without using the custom file, but then Im stuck in emergency mode. Any suggestion?

So do I need to start with a different restore from (the original downloaded one for this help bundle of files?)

Geez I thought I had this beat!
