Hi. I recently jailbroke my iPhone, however, whenever I restart my springboard, I get like 5 pages of just invisible icons. When I press and hold on one of them, it gives me the option to delete it(Are you sure you want to delete the bookmark " "?.

I deleted them all then restarted my Springboard and they all returned! I have no clue what's happening but it's really frustrating. They also mess all my icons up since they go in random places on the first 2 pages of app icons.

Any solutions will be greatly appreciated, thanks.

I don't think so.. but probaly. I'm not sure which one it could be though. I will screenprint my apps and if anyone sees one which could be the problem then I will delete it.

Which theme do you have installed?

Also, do you have bookmarks from Safari saved on your springboard?

I know it's ugly but blame the bookmark things! And my laziness of not updating the icons yet.

Just SSHed into my iPhone using WinSCP and in MobileSafari.app I found this:

Deleting those could be any help?

Well, I don't no how to delete 'em, but I know its meant to be a feature of the jailbreak you've installed.
Some people likes to only have like 2 icons per row on the first screen and so on, and with the invisble icons, you can make it look you only have that.
