I've jailbroken my phone twice now. Both times my phone app has broken. When I hit the phone button the keypad comes up then quits. Doesn't matter how many times I restart, it will still do it. First time I jailbroke my phone and it started doing it, I had no idea what caused it. This time I noticed it happened directly after installing winterboard. I even tried uninstalling winterboard to see if it would fix the problem, but it seemed to have just broken the app.
I really liked having the cydia apps at my disposal like netatalk, openssh, and terminal. I'm a linux nerd, so I can get a lot of use of out it.
Has anyone else had this problem before, or am I a rare case? I am doing a full wipe and reload of my phone.
I have a 8gb 3G and I am a mac user. I used quickpwn to jailbreak the phone.
