Unable to run appstore apps after jail break

Im unable to run apps downloaded from appstore since restoring with custom 3.1.2 firmware, the apps open then close again before i can do anything. Apps from cydia and a certain ipa installer work fine. Uninstalling and installing from scratch doesnt help. Has anybody seen this before? I have tried restoring a few times. :-(

Re: Unable to run appstore apps after jail break

Installing a free app as suggested in another post did not help, even the new apps close as soon as i run them

Re: Unable to run appstore apps after jail break

Have you installed VoIPover3G from Cydia?

If so, Uninstall it and everything will work fine.

Re: Unable to run appstore apps after jail break

No VoIPover3G installed..

I have deleted all the applications, etc in iTunes now, restored and started from scratch.. Hopefully I dont encounter this problem again, its a right pain in the backside... The legit stuff stops working, the not so legit stuff works fine.. huh.

Re: Unable to run appstore apps after jail break

Mine just refused to run any apps apart from the standard one (and cydia/winterboard/SBSettings...). Luckily I had backed up my phone in iTunes with all the apps, so I just restored (from iTunes backup, not the firmware) and all working fine again now

Re: Unable to run appstore apps after jail break

Try just doing a resync with iTunes rather than a restore as mentioned further up in the thread ?

Another method seems to be downloading a free app from the appstore.

I'd try both before doing a full restore in iTunes. Obviously don't do a backup in iTunes now as I think it only keeps the latest backup (unless you know where the file is stored and copy it elsewhere before overwriting).
