    First, as a matter of practice, you always should *backup* (sync) your iPhone to iTunes before moving from 4.x to 5.x. Did you do that?

    If so, it's pretty easy to do a fresh restore of 5.0.1 on your iPhone and then resync with iTunes to reinstall all your apps and preferences onto your "fresh" iPhone.

    you do know it's a tethered jailbreak and you must use redsnow extras just boot my device after you boot up.

    what phone is it? What's the current state of the phone?

    ----------

    try putting the phone into DFU and do a clean restore again.
