So updates to the iPhone/iPod Touch OSes were released, and again, it was another one of those “cross your finger” moments of upgrading; making sure everything restores and nothing breaks. In my case, something broke… and I traced it back to the plethora of pre-installed Cydia stuff.
The “fix” was easy once I figured out the problem; simply let Cydia’s core components install from PwnageTool stock setting (because you can manually download the individual components, which is normally useful if the “stock” stuff are outdated. Since PwnageTool was updated specifically for 2.2, I figured it was using the most recent builds.
So simply put, I didn’t include any of the RED tagged components listed below.
I also updated the “list” from the last time since there have been some changes since the last time I analyzed the files.
Legend:
- Red & Light Red
Components installed by default. Red ones are core components needed by Cydia to run, light red you can manually uninstall if you really want to (but I strongly advise against) - Purple
Apps/components that [I noticed] are commonly made to be “dependencies” (meaning there’s a big chance you’ll be needing them at one point) - Grey/Gray
Apps/components that I personally prefer to have installed for one reason or another. - Other colors have the same priority as gray tagged ones; they’re just apps/components I personally want installed. The reason why I used other colors for them is just to show the dependencies.
- Italicized text are source/repositories; so the color scheme still applies, but they aren’t really “components” per se.
