Receiving text sends iPhone into safe mode

The problem is that my iPhone 4 of version 4.3.3 springboard crashes and goes to safe mode when receiving text messages. I can send them fine. What is the reason for this problem ? Is there a way to prevent this from happening ? I just upgraded from 4.1 to 4.3.3 where I had no issues at all with messaging. All my Cydia apps were restored with Pkgbk... When in safe mode I can receive them so I suspect that the problem is with one of the apps installed through Cydia? But I don't know which one? I've search around everywhere for an answer with no success... Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thread moved to the iPhone Jailbreak section.Thread edited - This is due to breaking forum policy. everythingiCafe doesn't permit the discussion of cracked applications i.e repo's, packages etc etc.

Download Crash Reporter from Cydia and it will compile a crash report. You should be able to determine which app(s) is conflicting and causing the device to enter Safe Mode.

First, thanks for responding. I have crash reporter installed but I don't understand how to read it exactly... It says, mobile-SpringBoard (9)
view crashlog
view syslog
Nothing is under the suspects tabs

Mobile-Springboard (9) - tap on this tab and see what it says.
I did and it comes up with a list of (9) different times, then I tap on one of them and get:
view crash log
view syslog
Nothing shows up under the primary, secondary or tertiary suspects tabs

After looking a bit deeper into the crash reporter: under one of the date/times there is one that reports
SpringBoard
Primary suspect: winterboard.dylib
Secondary suspect: libweather.dylib

I would personally restore and re-jailbreak. I know you will lose a lot but at least then you can just install what you need from Cydia instead of having a huge compilation of un-needed apps ( I know its easy to compile to many Cydia apps on one device. Been there...) Try that

Good luck

Not quite ready to restore... I'm not giving up too quickly. It has to be something in cydia

One or more of the OP's packages are causing the crash. My bet is that the package(s) aren't compatible with the current OS.

In my opinion that is just waaaaay too many Cydia apps on one iPhone to expect it to behave flawlessly. You have to be judicious in your choice of Cydia app installations. There is no possible way you NEED every single one of those apps! :eek:
