Hi guys, I’m very new to jail breaking and I’ve come across a small problem.
I’ll keep it nice and short so I don’t waste your guys time!
1. I have a iPhone X on iOS 12.2
2. Jailbroke with “Tweakbox” and installed unc0ver jailbreak.
3. Made sure to delete the OTA software
4. Successfully jailbroke and installed apps.
5. Then one day, my Cydia decides to crash and not open anymore... my battery did die and I’m not sure if it’s a tethered jailbreak or not.
6. So I deleted the profiles I installed and tried to re download everything, but I can’t download unc0ver from tweakbox anymore.

My question would be “how do I get Cydia to work again”.
I really don’t want to update my iPhone to the latest firmware and lose my jailbreak...

Hope to hear from y’all soon.
Thank you!
 
When you power off or your battery dies, then you lose your jailbreak. You need to re jailbreak it. Try using Cydia Impactor on your PC and download the latest IPA from Unc0ver here. If you don't have a PC you can use Ignition.fun (like tweakbox but better) to download it. Also, install a tweak called Reprovision. It will auto sign the JB for you every 7 days.

Hey! Thanks for the response! I don’t have my computer on me so I’ll try to different method you just told me and will keep you updated!
 
I just tried to download the ignition, but the app is untouchable.

As you can see on the bottom!

Those apps like Tweakbox, ignition.fun etc. get temporarily shutdown sometimes, that is why I always use Cydia Impactor to Jailbreak. It's very easy, download Cydia Impactor, download the Unc0ver IPA. Open Cydia Impactor. Plug in your phone to PC/Laptop. Drag the ipa file onto Cydia Impactor box. Put in your Apple ID email, then your password. It will load the Uncover app onto your phone. Got to settings on your phone and trust your Apple ID email address. Put your phone in airplane mode and then tap the Unc0ver app to JB, tap ok on the finished log and it will reboot and will be Jailbroke. Turn Airplane mode off afterwards. Go to Cydia and download Reprovision. Trust it in settings. Hope that helps.

Hi!
Fortunately, I was able to re jailbreak my iPhone but I was unsuccessful with downloading "reprovision".
So if my phone were to die, I would just go on unc0ver, click jailbreak, and then I would be good to go?
