I purchased Apple's AV cable and was happily outputting video from my phone's screen to my TV all while jailbroken. Now suddenly nothing will output. I thought my cable had a short in it, but I tried it with my room mate's iPhone and his is able to output to TV fine.

I looked through my Cydia apps and can't fathom how any of them could have caused this. Any advice?

Boot up holding the volume up button. This essentially disables all tweaks. Try again and if it works this time, then it is a jailbreak tweak. Uninstall the last few ones you have installed since noticing the problem until the problem is fixed to find out which tweak is causing this

This worked! I've determined it was a jailbreak tweak. Is there a way I can see which packages are the latest ones I've installed? I put a lot on and it's hard for me to remember...

Unfortunately not, you will have to rely on memory. Or just scan through your tweaks and uninstall the tweaks you suspect are the cause or related to AirPlay.

You could also list your tweaks here and other members might give you suggestions on which to uninstall

Can I export my installed list somehow?
