Hi Guys,

I have a big problem with cydia, it wont start when i touch it. i tried installing cydia manual refresh but i just get stuck with _slowly_ Upgrading Telesphoreo... it wont install. any ideas on how i can fix this? please help.

im on ver 1.1.4. btw

is it a good idea to install the cydia package again using installer?
 
cydia

ok, i just want to know how i can fix cydia. any suggestions?
 
I think it's best to have EITHER Installer OR Cydia.

No, they can co-exist perfectly, thats not the issue.

If you gain command line access to the phone, you can run :

Code:
apt-get dist-upgrade

and

Code:
apt-get update

(both need to be run as root, so either ssh in as root, download sudo, or invoke su) :p

This will update cydia for you, and hopefullly sove any issues that you have.
 
hi,

thanks for the reply. is there any other way to run this without ssh? i currently do not have wifi. thanks in advance

You can do it in MobileTerminal also. ( I suggest the version in Cydia, its updated more regularly, and the one from installer has many known bugs. )

Or if you have the ability, you can create an ad-hoc network in order to connect to it :p

Good Luck!
