Springboard Problem

on a jailbroken iphone.

not sure if this a common problem or not but recently (the last week) after making certain changes on cydia my springboard restarts, then when the home screen shows, all my icons have been re-arranged all over the place, even my 5th icon goes back above with the general ones. not a major issue as it is quite easily sorted, but a pain in the ass none the less having to put them back each time (especially as i have a bit of an ocd about where specific icons go!!

one other thing.

in settings you can restrict 18 rated content.

how do i create an 18 rating for certain content to make sure certain "videos" cannot be watched without inputting the pin......is this even possible to do or is it only official i-tunes downloads that work for this feature?

thanks in advance.

I've had this a few times, last time this morning, very annoying. Not sure how to cure it.

Re: Springboard Problem

right due to the lack of response on here (useless helpers!! )

i have reset my i-phone and now want to jailbreak again, i have updated to latest firmware, but when i run quickpwn i get to "now hold down power button and home button for 30 seconds" my phone turns off ( i think it thinks i am meaning to turn it off!) anyone know why it may be doing this?


thanks in advance.

Holding down power and home for 30 seconds will turn off your phone, to get into DFU mode you press power and home for 10 seconds then release power but keep hold of home for another 10 seconds.
