No safari and ifile following a 5.0.1 unthethered jailbreak

[cher]

Hi,
I've jailbroke my iphone 4 with the help of the most updated redsn0w program (ver. 0.9.10b3). The action completed successfully but
1. when I start safari it opens and then, almost immediately closes.
2. I can't install ifile. It just disappeared.
3. when I hit a link (from email, for example) opera mini opens (instead of safari), but the expected link isn't available.
Looks like other applications as well aren't operative.

I tried to rejailbreak once without reinstalling cydia and again including cydia installation. The problems stayed.

What's wrong? Any suggestions?

What tweaks do you have installed, perhaps some aren't compatible with ios 5. What did you upgrade from? If that's not the problem, then it sounds like you might want to consider reinstalling the OS and trying to jailbreak again after that.

Do you have Spire, or any other siri ports installed? If not, what other cydia apps/tweaks do you have installed? I know Spire causes this exact issue for me.

Is there a way to track me tweaks?

I would be more than eager to answer your question, but since I've no record of my tweaks, I'm stuck.
Is there a way to identify which teaks are installed on my system?

No, I haven't installed Spire. Do you know any other applications which cause my symptoms?

After you jailbreak to you go to cydia and install all the necessary upgrades?? Mobil substrate has been updated twice very recently...

Is update necessary?

Each time I open cydia, a long list of updates are downloaded. Is there any need for a further independent update? If so, how is it done?

Not necessarily what I meant... Occasionally when you open cydia there will be a "flashing" red badge... Those are considered necessary updates... Many people were having issues with some applications not working but it has been sorted by most everyone... Not really sure what you have going on...

Well, whenover I got those message, I followed suit and updated cydia.

Your phone still isn't sorted yet?? If not I'd do a fresh restore as new iPhone and jailbreak again... Seems like a pain but something didn't go right for you!

 

[cher]

I'm quite convinced that you're right.
Still, what did you mean by "a fresh restore as new iPhone "? My phone is now updated to ver. 5.0.1. Should I first return it to 4.3.3?
Is there a step-by-step manual for this process?

He meant restoring to 5.0.1 via iTunes (DO NOT do this if you are an unlocker) and then setting the iPhone up as new (meaning do not use any backups) After that you can proceed with another jailbreak and see if that fixed anything.

Can't restore

Well, my situation becomes more and more complicated. I tried to restore my iPhone, but got the following error message:

The iPhone...could not be restore. An unknown error occurred (11)

Error # 11 isn't listed on the apple report document.

Any suggestion?
