Foldersinfolders just made my iPhone 5 went into loop mode. Was able to remove it with iDevice Explorer. Any other option to put all my folders into a single one.
Got a tip for us?

General Tweaks that put you in safe mode or brick your device
- Thread starter guitarmandp
- Start date
- Sort by reaction score
Activator (I installed it separately) and SBSettings are fine with me, but not Remove Bacground. That's kinda sad because that was the big one I wanted to install.
Tried that, it worked (but it wasn't safe mode)... I got in to remove iphone gv extension, but then weather.app stopped working. Thinking I could safely reboot... I did... and now I'm stuck again (vol up doesn't work now)
Switchy is also putting my iPhone into safe mode as well. It's a shame as it is one of my most useful tweaks.
I jailbroke and tried using CarrierEditor as opposed to using Zepplein.
I got stuck with the apple logo and had to DFU.
I realize now how stupid that really sounds lol

NCSettings and Activator have both worked fine for me.
The Weather.app issue is caused by the jailbreak. Planetbeing is working on a fix that will be released in Cydia as a evasi0n untether update.

If you get stuck, first try a hard reset while plugged into power, or, boot to safe mode by holding volume up after a hard reset. If you do the safe mode boot, you'll need to shut down (not restart) and turn on to get out.
There is a problem with the jailbreak that causes you to get stuck at the apple logo on a reboot...this fixes it if it's due to that. If it IS due to the tweak, this may not work, but it works every time for me and many, many others.
Thats a pretty stupid move yes.
It's pretty weird that the testers didn't find out about this, really. Should be really simple to try to launch all apps when you're a beta tester.
But anyhow - will we be forced to re-jailbreak or will you be able to fix it through Cydia?

I downloaded Auxo and got use to it. At first I didn't like it, but alot of the bugs are fixed and it has SBSettings built in, so 1 less tweak I need to worry about.
I rarely use the weather app, and I don't know anyone who really uses it either.
Also, reread what he posted, he just stated the fix will be released in Cydia as an update.
Thanks. I tried the above last night. It was the tweak.. I felt really dumb because I had to restore and re-jailbreak lol
Same here, Activator installed separately from (I guess) BigBoss prior to installing (paid for) BiteSMS. Safe mode when using Quick Reply
BiteSMS 7.2 is now out, let's see what this me does for me
