I have a a 3gs that I jailbroke about a month ago. Everything was going great, really enjoyed the fuctionality that jailbreaking allows. I used categories to organize my pages of apps. Yesterday I downloaded glass orb for winterboard. When I tied to enable it my iPhone froze up upon respring. No matter what I did I would freeze at apple logo. I finally was ableto get into dfu mode and do a restore. All my apps that were in categories are gone. My question is, if I rejailbreak and install categories again will I be able to recover my apps? Any input or Advice would be greatly appreciated.

To restore all apps go to settings/general/restrictions

Select Enable restrictions. Close out of settings

Go back and then Disable restrictions

All your apps should appear.

Edit: Guess Jmann types faster than I do !!
 
Thanks alot, you guys are great! And fast with replies. I take it you have all been down my road? I still plan on jailbreaking again but may wait until after the 25th.
