Help, my iPhone 4 apps are not working

[dmendoza]

it just started happening. whenever I open an application that I downloaded (angry birds, fring, other games, etc.) the app just flashes for half a second then the screen goes back to its previous state (the folder where I placed the application). i already tried a hard reset but it's still happening.

Are you sure it was a hard reset and not just a reboot? You need to ignore the slide to power off slider for a hard reset. What firmware version are you using? Is your phone jailbroken or unlocked?

I used a hard reboot (the one that i read from your previous thread). phone isn't jailbroken because I just got it 6 months ago. I recently (last sunday) upgraded the software version to 4.3.5, could that be the source of the problem?

Try deleting and reinstalling the apps that are crashing.

got it fixed! had to restore the whole system through iTunes. took me about 2 hrs but it was worth the wait. thanks for your help Europa but i'm still wondering what really happened though....
