Cydia did some updates today.

Have no idea what they were.

Now, after unlocking my iPhone, it crashes.

Plus, when I install/uninstall programs, I get a red text error.

Tried removing programs from Cydia but nothing helped.

Tomorrow I am going to make my first attempt at SSH'ing
into my iPhone and reinstalling Cydia.

see https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/1159869/ as I had the same issue on one of my iphone4s (4.2.1)... 4.3.2 did not have a glitch despite the fact same sources are used. (in short, $infuliph0ne repo was the RED ALL OVER offender, after removing it (not in cydia, would not let me into edit sources) + reboot + re-enter the source = problem free now.
 
This is happening to me also. i notice a lot of times when i end a call and old message will pop up and the it will respring in IT SAFE MODE. sometimes its just random though.

100% same issue for me on 4.3.3

Same exact thing is happening to me.

Well sadly I must say that removing barrel has solved all my crash issues. This is the only one I removed.

wondering about that; am in my 3rd day with only 3DBoard off (barrel still on), and no crashes..

too soon to tell?
let's keep this thread going.
and i'll report back if (and when) i get my next crash...
 
I don't have 3Dboard so I know that wasn't issue. One of my problems was easy to test. Listening to pandora I get a call about 10-15 seconds the phone crashes and I have to wait for it to respring. pretty easy to test that. No other crashies so far.
 
That's a bummer, I didn't delete anything yet, but I am still getting old texts on my phone and such, for $10 I'm thoroughly un impressed.
 
With BiteSMS having problems, is there any other
app that would be a better alternative to that program
while delivering the same features?
 
probably just a random thing, but...have had no 'crashes' to safe boot since i switched off '3Dboard' (a week, the longest i've gone without such a crash).

...which makes little sense, considering few people here have that app running, but are having the same issues (seemingly bitesms).

anyone else?
 
im on 4.3.3 and im 100% sure bite sms crashes my phone. after receiving a call bitesms pops up a notification window of my most recent sms which i already "read" and if I close it then my phone crashes

The bitesms developer knows about this crash if you visit their forums.

I'm waiting for the non-beta version.
 
I got in safe mode 12 times the other day but that's cause I was running a 3G with multitasking, battery % and homescreen background enabled as well as a heavy theme. :D
 
4.3.3 here, never Jailbroken, never crashes. Not sure how else you'd expect your phone not to crash.

funny. what's your point? computers crash sometimes, iphones can crash.
safe mode every now & then is a small price to pay for all the great things jailbreaking offers... :confused:

whatever works for you!
 
This may be a long shot, but I have seen with other people, pirated apps downloaded and installed via Installious bring lots of problems, from safe mode issues to phone reboots.

Android is starting to have issues with apps off of official stores having malware, and it is only a matter of time before the bad guys decide to attach malicious payloads to pirated apps.
 
for me...nothing pirated on my phone. and, never uninstalled barrel (for instance), so not that here. i turned 3dboard back on after a week of no crashes.

AND i installed the newest bitesms beta. a week: longest i've gone without winding up in safe mode, so...not sure where the issue is (or was).

if i crash again, will report back. otherwise, back to life... :D
 
crash! right after using bitesms (latest DL too); i DID turn 3dBoard back on, but seems most of you don't use this.

so...bitesms?? anyway...:confused:
 
I just wanted to send an update. I've never installed bitesms, but I did have 3DBoard, which was causing my crashes. Turned off, I never get a crash (even after weeks). Turned on, crashes within the hour - often just from pushing the lock button.
