Welcome...

I've been having several problems with my crApple iPod Touch 2G and spent hours searching the net for answers. They were quite hard to find so I decided to create a blog with the best solutions. Now I have a 3GS and iPad1 too.

Cydia freezes On 'Loading Data' Screen

Having problems with Cydia saying "Loading Data" or "Reload Data" on screen for a long time?

Method 1.
  • Turn SSH and Wi-Fi on in your iPhone/iPod.
  • Open the SSH program of your choice on your computer.
  • Goto folder /var/lib/apt/lists.
  • Delete all of the files except for the partial folder AFTER backing them up.
  • Disconnect the SSH connection in your program.
  • Re-open Cydia.

If that fails then try method 2.

  • Shell access (terminal or ssh)
  • Type "Su" and your password.
  • Navigate to the root directory and type the following.
  • dpkg -configure -a
  • apt-get update
  • apt-get install cydia (if it fails add –fix-missing)
  • apt-get upgrade (to install mobilesubstrate correctly)
  • reboot

DISCLAIMER - Beware when doing anything to your iPhone/iPod, make sure you back it up and it's all at YOUR OWN RISK!!!
