It didn’t take us too long to update out iPhone 4 with the latest untethered jailbreak from Redsn0w, so a few niggles here and there are to be expected – especially as this jailbreak uses a new exploit. I started to notice a few issues with the iOS5 jailbreak straight away. Although the jailbreak process was very simple this time, getting things working again was a bit trickier.

Straight away, Cydia didn’t install properly and left me with a white icon that wouldn’t launch. To get Cydia running I needed to reboot the iPhone and then it was fine. Next I redownloaded X-Backup. I had this on my iPhone running the iOS 4.3.3 jailbreak and it is supposed to backup all of the Cydia sources and installed programs, so when you upgrade your jailbreak you can reinstall the app, launch the backup and More >
