I jailbroke my iPhone 4 with redsn0w for iOS 5 beta - after installing UI widget that never showed up in notification center it went into a respring loop, over and over and over.

Had to downgrade to restore again and than downgraded in DFU. Anyone else had this problem?
 
Back in the day I installed something, I can't remember what, but went into the infinite respring loop. It was a pain in the butt to try to figure out, and I eventually had to restore. It was either a bad application or a beta setting in some program I messed around with.
 
Sounds like MobileSubstrate probably needs to be updated for iOS5. Respring loops shouldn't happen, because of the "safe mode" it provides. What can we say, its beta.
 
It works

Heres how (i had the same problem five minutes ago), just boot tethered from redsn0w, that fixes it :)
 
Can anybody comment on the status of Lockinfo with beta 2?

I tried it on beta 1 and got kicked into safe mode after installing.

I'm really not hoping for much but it would be nice.
