How to remove Cydia

Found a way

How I found out how to delete cydia was easy
I got cydelete then under protected applications
I turned cydia off then I was able to delete it
But if I delete cydia, wil all of my cydia things get
Deleted too. Please help me!!!!!!
 
Restore via iTunes.

If not, go to Cydia, go to packages, make sure it is advanced, and remove cydia installer.
 
Can't believe the number of wrong/overly complicated answers.

Download CyDelete. Go to it in setting and allow deleting Cydia.

Delete Cydia on the home page like any other app.
 
The ultimate irony is the number of people who get mad at the fact that an old thread has been revived, are probably the same people who get mad at new (duplicate) threads and say, "UGH! Use the search function!!"
 
Once again. This thread is old. Why am I still here, telling people it's old almost four years later? What am I doing with my life. :(
 
I was looking around cydia, seeing if there was any way at all to remove it. I came across the FAQs & 1 question was about removing packages. Id read on here something like the packages can stay after u delete cydia using itunes (or something like that, yeah). OK so i found out how to delete packages and then deleted a couple. On deleting my 3rd package (it comes to the home screen whne u delete a packag), i found that the Cydia app had disappeared!

Now i dunno if its totally gone, but i wonder ....
 
So i was looking to remove cydia since there's no Manage tab at the bottom... I figured it was a bad install or st... Any ideas where to find the Manage tab? Thanks.

On the ipad the button labelled installed will reveal the list of packages that the manage button shows on the iphone.

On the ipad the button labelled sources will reveal the sources that the manage button shows on the iphone.

As far as the original question restore, jailbreak but do not check the install cydia check box.
