So I hadn't opened Cydia in MONTHS. Went into it last night to get Insomnia back and it did that thing where it tells you all the updates, and X amount are "critical" or however it words it. I just hit "complete update" to install everything. Well since then the phone has been acting funny. This is what I've noticed so far:
When typing (in ANYTHING, not just particular things), the blue cursor is "slower" than the characters. I'll be typing a word and characters show up but the cursor lags behind, it's always to the left of the new character, or when deleting it leaves a space between the cursor, like it's lagging the opposite way now.
Things "fly" in from the edges of the screen. For example when auto-correct has suggestions, instead of it just popping up above the word the bubble like "flys" over from the status bar area. Same thing when you click a new entry field when filling in a form (like shipping info or whatever), the box highlight "flies" over from the edge of the screen.
Zooming/scrolling "reloads" everytime. Like if I pinch to zoom in/out once I stop the zoom the page like flashes for a split second back to the previous size, or when I scroll it does the flash thing but in the same size.
Also, scrolling down/up pages makes things "fill in" from left to right, or a gray bar goes from left to right. Like when I scroll down the "about" page in general settings, all the info on each line shoots in from left to right when scrolling down. Or that line goes across, almost like when you read an e-book and it does the simulated "page turn" graphic.
Switching pages in safari/home screen has "background flashes". In safari if you go to multi-page view and switch between pages for a split second there is a black background then the actual page image "flies" in and covers it. On homescreens some app icons do that same thing, or turn all black when you touch them.
I'm being as descriptive as possible, but this is very hard to describe haha.
All of this happens for a split second, but it is very noticeable and HIGHLY annoying/distracting. Has anyone else experienced this when installing "recent" Cydia updates (I say "recent" in quotes since it's been awhile since I used Cydia so I'm not sure how recent the offending update item is).
I'm on a launch-day 3GS running 4.2.1
