I'm up ***** creek without a paddle now! I just finished updating exxOS theme to 1.3, and decided, while i was in cydia i would uninstall some tweaks i no longer needed (folder enhancer and infinidock, and an old theme), dont need them for this theme.
I'm now stuck in a boot loop and i can't get into safe mode via the volume up button.
iTunes sees my phone, as does iExplorer, i can see the file structure etc.

I have no clue what to do now, so it looks like im about to lose my jailbreak and this amazing theme along with it. I just dont understand how deleting working tweaks can do this, i also dont understand why i cant boot into safe mode.
If there is anyone here who might know something to do/try im more than willing to listen. I can't stay like this for too long though as my wife is heavily pregnant and a working phone is a must.

Thanks for any help,

Neil.
 
iFunBox and then delete your theme.. Reinstall... Or reinstall using iFunBox the other tweaks.
 
I don't know anything about JB...but can I be your hero anyway...:p:eek:

:D

EDIT: I just went to your Profile page and saw what I assume are you and your beautiful baby. I know who the real hero is here!!
 
Update:

Firstly.......WOHOOOOOOOOOOO

Now I'll come down off the ceiling. Right, as you might gather from my excitement, I've fixed the boot loop after totally losing hope. Here's what I did....after trying the rename of dynamic libraries, which unfortunately didn't work, I decided to try one last thing, remembering the initial fix for the weather bug, I decided to delete com.apple.mobile.installation.plist and com.apple.LaunchServices-045.csstore from private/var/mobile/library/caches.

Totally didn't expect it to work, but boy am I glad it did. Maybe one to note for future reference?

P.S thanks for the kind words shrink :)

OP...does post # 6 have any relevance to you issue. If not...it should be reported. I don't know anything about the problem you were discussing, so I don't know if this is a related joke...or just bad taste.

It made me laugh out loud because I totally got it. It's not spam, it's just funny because he ended up being the hero and it goes with the lyrics of the song.

Well... I guess it went over my head, so I reported it. But if the Mods get the joke., and think it's funny..nothing will happen

Haha, I get it now, I guess all the stressing of potentially losing my jailbreak killed my funny bone.
