I just installed iWidgets and did a respring. Upon the reboot my phone has become stuck in what I guess is an endless boot cycle. It goes from the apple logo and the flashes to my lock screen and the back to the apple logo, over and over. Ive tried holding down the power button and home button to restart the phone but that did nothing? Anyone have any advice? Im at a loss and don't really wanna have to restore.
 
Well somehow I got it to boot up, holding the power button and home button down until the apple logo popped up, then I held down the power button and volume up button down and it booted up. I guess this booted into safe mode? I then deleted iWidgets and rebooted the phone again by holding down the power button and home button. That got me back to normal again. Not sure why iWidgets would cause this? Being new to Jailbreaking, this scared the crap out of me, LOL.
