I just had my iP4 replaced by Apple yesterday because of a buggy iPod player in my iP4. Of course I had backed every thing up through pkgbackup (through contacts) and iTunes before taking the device to Apple so I was good to go.
I went through the tedious process of trying to gather all my info via pkgbackup, which unfortunately took nearly the whole day because the app could not find my backup anywhere and if it did, the date was back in May of last year! I was so aggravated with the situation that I ended up getting ALL my data one by one through Cydia by memory, which I am sure that I have forgot a good chunk of it. Anyhow I ended up changing the backup from contacts through dropbox instead and was done with pkgbackup so hopefully it won't fail on me again the next time I restore it. If anyone knows an answer to this dilemma, please chime in. On to the next issue.
Upon JB, using only Cydia at the time, the keyboard function ONLY worked on Cydia but does not work on anything else, such as mail, sms, safari, settings, and etc. WTF right? I previously downloaded 5 qwerty keyboard layout, which worked before on my other iP4 (which was on 4.2.1) but deleted it to see if that would cure my troubles but nope, it didn't.
Do I have a faulty device or could it be cydia or pwnagetool that could have ruined things up? This whole situation has been exasperating...
I never had an issue with pkgbackup until yesterday and with the keyboard acting up like this so any solutions would be great, thanks in advance and sorry for the long thread, had to vent out
