I have a jailbroken Iphone 5 (6.1) and i was updating some cydia apps and had to respring. After the respring i was brought to the activation screen and it keeps
saying the Iphone could not be activated because the activation server is temporarily unavailable (Ive been trying like the whole day)
What should i do? I dont want to restore because I dont have a recent backup.

I know that there is a tweak that messes up and makes that happen but I can't remember which one. You most likely installed a tweak that isn't compatible yet with iOS 6

If it doesn't fix it's self, restore is your only option.

I have the same problem with my iphone 5, had 4 updates in Cydia, one was pdanet, after respringing I get the activation screen and it won't activate. Plugged it in to my mac and opened itunes and it says "Itunes could not connect to this iPhone." How can I restore if itunes doesn't recognize it?

Can you boot the phone in Safe Mode? Or can you get in via SSH from your laptop/desktop?

How did you do it? I have the same problem and I feel like I've tried everything but I can't find a solution. :(
