I closed it after it said "could damage something" basically. As soon as I closed it, the Cydia icon disappeared. This is on an iPad 1

you have ifile or SSH installed? if so download last Cydia release and with ifunbox or similar file explorer put it on the phone, now use ifile to install or put in /var/root/Cydia/AutoInstall and reboot.
I know, old thread bump, but I'm got iFunBox and am gonna look through the files. I'll let you know what I find.
I have something called "Cydia.app" inside system applications, using iFunBox. How do I restore it back? HELP!!!
Don't know what a shsh blob is...ios version is 5.1.1, which is up to date with this iPad.

then, just restore. thats what i would do anyway.
Yes. You will have to set it up like its just out of the box. Just backup to icloud or itunes first, and restore. This will delete all cydia tweaks, also. Then just jailbreak with redsn0w.
And I reset it by sticking a toothpick inside that tiny "reset" hole? Wanna make sure... APRIL FOOLS LOLZIES

That's a big no no when jailbroken. You must restore with iTunes.
But my only option is "restoring from last backup" which isn't far enough to where Cydia went missing. My iPad was just sitting there for hours with the turning looptie loo thing so I did a hard restart. Didn't break anything on the iPad, but the iPad is exactly the same.
Because you used erase all content and settings, you likely deleted system files. Even if you get the iPad to boot and it looks normal, you're almost guaranteed to have issues. There's always a chance it'll be ok, but odds are, you'll have to restore via iTunes. Good luck. Hopefully you can salvage your jailbreak.
never mind, I figured it out. I was on the wrong page. Restored the iPad to brand new. Moves so quickly now...so could you point me in the right direction for a tutorial on re-jailbreaking with redsnow? I used Absinthe last time...
Likely 5.1.1.

5.1.1
Yeah, it was pretty simple. Problem is, I cannot locate the tutorial to do THAT either...-_-
