iPhone iOs 5.0.1 jailbreak problem

Ok.. So I have jailbroken my phone successfully and I've seen alot of great things you can do, I've used cydia and I've explored quite a bite.. well now I notice my springboard keeps crashing and I can't figure out why.. my phone will reload and it will have the beep sound for the reboot but my load screen takes longer and freezes before the phone comes on and now the phone lags..

My main problem is, its that I can live with the phone going slower however, with this iOs 5.0.1 jailbreak I can no longer send picture messages. I can receieve them but I can't send any type of MMS message. I've tried numerous so called fixes and its making me really ****ing angry.

Now I'm just wondering if I can't fix the problem how do I completely remove the jailbreak while keeping everying I have still on my phone such as my music, picture and contacts?

 

Thanks you all, as far as the hanging up and taking longer to load it could be that I downloaded something that wasnt compatible, I was trying to get Shrink lol but maybe it wasn't the compatitible version.

I think the other problem with the MMS is the iMessage feature becasue I was trying to send a picture to my buddy via iMessage cuz iphone-to-iphone type chat yanno and it wouldn't go though, on my side it would say sent, but on his he never got anything. I just disabled iMessage and sent as a regualr text message and it went through fine which is odd to say the least.

Hopefully they fix this feature, as far as the spring board crashing and rebooting now thats just annoying.

Also I can't answer a facetime request and see the other person nor can they see me, but I can hear them. However, when I send the facetime request it works fine.. beats the hell out of me.

----------

my whole reason behind jailbreaking was customization and wanting to have adobe flash run on my phone and play flash movies from websites and other videos without getting errors but I don't think its quite worth it yet.. lots of bugs in it still.. Hopefully they develop it more

 

Ah I see, You very well may be right. I'm new to this jailbreak type thing. Know nothing about it. I actually uninstalled everything I had previously installed all the packages and almost all sources and its still lagging the device, I also did a crashreport and it didn't come up with anything so I'm not sure what to do, may just have to restore then jailbreak again.

Maybe I installed some bad source in cydia? I was just searching online and youtube and what not to see which were best.

 

I'm guessing you have the verizon iphone4 right?
Thats what I have and having the same exact problems.
Hell i'd rather give up jailbreak for facetime I love it lol.

Did you just do a factory reset or DFU restore in itunes?

----------

See thats the thing the problem is still there with the springboard crashing and i installed almost everything I downloaded from the cydia store. I'm thinkiing its a tweak somewhere that didn't install properly so I may just need to redo the jailbreak. Yep still lagging too, on a reset the phone will beep like its about come up and it takes another 10 seconds to process and then you slide it open and it never even follows your finger, it hesistates after about 3 seconds and opens the phone.. no clue but annoying, its also freezes the preloader so you think your phones about to freeze and then after about 2 mins it comes back lol

----------

Could be, I'm about to restore and rejailbreak and see if iMessage and facetime work properly without downloading any cydia apps and see what the outcome is. I will follow up the post on it, it could be the 5.0.1 tho.. you tried your imessage and to receive a facetime call? you can make one fine but it wont allow you to recieve it.. atleast mine wouldnt.

----------

Also with CallBar it wouldnt let any calls come through, just like simply ring a half second and go away.. made no sense

 

Could be, not sure to be honest Idk what any of the lingo means like basebands and all that crap lol.

I'm about to restore and will post what happens

----------

Oh yea one other annoying problem with the springboard crashing, you can go to your text or call log and none of your contacts are there just numbers lol

 

well **** guys now my phone won't restore at all.. wtf man i'm not sure spent hours working on it.. uninstalled itunes and all apple support devices and i downloaded the latest itunes 10.5.2 and it will detect in DFU mode but i keep getting a ****ing 1604 error

 

Thanks man but that didn't work for me either. I think its pretty much shot I can't find anyway to restore it with in itunes at all. It will get almost through the process and give a 1604

 

I tried using the iREB 4C PWN DFU tool and put the phone into DFU for a custom install but it won't let me install any back ups gives me a 1604 and now a 1601.

I finally found IphoneRecoveryFix.exe and that enabled my phone to boot back into the state it was previously, so now its up and running again but yet still jail broken and still slow.

----------

I've change the usb plug to everyone on my computer, I've multiple restores and back ups, I've tried DFU recovery/restore, I unistalled anything Apply related on my comp and had to go download the new version of iTunes.. I think thats the problem though the newer version of iTunes.. they older ones worked fine for me. I guess I'm going to do a complete deep uninstall and sweep of traces of registry files and try again

----------

the phones also in Safe Mode right now and my springboard is crashed.. still lol.. ***** ridiculous

 

I think so, I thought that when you jailbreak with redsn0w that it unlocks the phone?

----------

What you mean? I have no clue how to use tiny umbrella at all lol

 

thats currently what I saw however my phone isn't plugged in though.

 

I just reinstalled itunes and what not, i backed up my device did a restore from back up in itunes and the phones still jailbroken and not back to normal.. I guess I'm going to try to back up and restore again

 

I did though, I opened TU and i unchecked the cydia host part and did a restore and at the end it gave me error 1601

this is what the log in TU said

01/12/2012 05:56:44.578 Loaded History... 01/12/2012 05:56:53.062 Cannot Start TSS Service DO NOT TRY RESTORING YOUR DEVICE!!! Your hosts file is not writable! 01/12/2012 05:56:53.062 You are using the current version of TinyUmbrella.
