Went through the jailbreak process yesterday and after opening Cydia, all of the stock app icons have disappeared (including Cydia) and cannot be found through spotlight. With iFunBox, I can see that the stock apps appear to be intact in the stash.
my process was as follows:
Backed up iphone 4 (GSM, ios 5.1.1), reset the phone via settings, ran absinthe v2.0.4, restored from backup, ran cydia...
Cydia has never been run on this phone before and it has never been jailbroken. Therefore I've never installed openSSH, MobileTerminal, iFile, etc.
I have tried rebooting, hard resetting, and booting in 'safe mode' to no avail. I still have a 5.1.1 ipsw, but at this point it fails to restore via iTunes and I assume this is because I will be forced to update to ios6. Phone can still RECEIVE phone calls, but it hangs on the 'accept / decline' screen after call is finished. Notification banner of text msg appears but I receive a 'bad url' error when trying to view it.
I would really like to try to figure this out without restoring to ios6 (if that is indeed my only restore option). Thanks
