For some reason Cydia won't load for me. It was working fine earlier this morning, but now, it will start to load then just go back to the Springboard. I have already re-booted a couple of times. Not sure what to do after that. Any thoughts?

I had this problem yesterday after trying to upgrade an app from Cydia - whilst uprading the app the phone locked down to the Apple Logo. Managed to reboot it but when trying to launch Cydia again, it started to launch then went straight back to Springboard after a couple of seconds. Sounds similar to your experience.
As with most of these issues there is always someone on a forum somewhere who has managed to work it out. It appears that its an error to do with downloading Winterboard and dpkg errors (the last part meant nothing to me).
Anyway, if you can SSH into your iphone go to:
var/lib/dpkg/updates - and delete all files in the update folder.
Cydia has worked fine since.
That is exactly what happened to me, however, I have no idea what "ssh into your iphone" means. I am still having the issue. If you can possibly tell me how to do that, it would be great.
Thanks
Unfortunately I did not install Icy (obviously wish I had). I just went to do a restore to re-jailbreak, and the only option it is giving me is to upgrade to 3.1.
itunes is not letting me restore to 3.0.1. Is there a way to restore to 3.0.1, or is there a way to install Icy without going through Cydia? Thanks again for any help.
