Help.
I'm on a 3g with 3.0 jailbroken with pwnage.
when I load iTunes (on the phone) it either crashes
or doesn't allow me to view any results that are not images.
The only jb apps I have are sbsettings 3.0-1 and xgps.
Anyone else having this issue? Or any ideas?
Thanks.

You can go one of two routes here.

1) You can launch Cydia and view all of the installed JB apps. Even though you think there's only 2 installed, there are plenty more that work in the background. Reinstall all of these. This *might* fix your problem... in the past, it worked for me.

2) You can restore your iPhone, set it up as new and then jailbreak it again with redsn0w. People seem to be having issues with the redsn0w jailbreak if they choose to install Icy during the JB process, so you might want to start off with just Cydia. If you still want Icy, install it via Cydia after the jailbreak.

@Matt74
thanks. I ended up restoring.
It seems one of the packages with sbsettings
is causing the crash. Not sure which one yet
but I'll update if I figure it out.

i figured out the problem- if anyone else is having the same issue.
for whatever reason one of the sources in cydia did not update (and therefore did not tell me I had 7 critical updates).
if your Souce: Teleshoreo Tangelo is apt.saurik.com and says "Distribution of Unix Software for IPhoneOS" and not IPhoneOS 3 - you will need to add the source:apt.saurik.com/cydia-3.7

sbsettings works perfectly now and itunes is stable again!
