Hi,
I am in some serious shit. I have iPhone 4 and my iOS is 4.10.01. Pretty old, I know but the reason to this is that I jailbroke it and installed a lot of applications so I was too lazy to reinstall everything again every time after an upgrade so I decided to just leave it like that. It worked fine for a while but as new iOS versiones came up, many of my applications stopped working. I didnt care as long as Cydia and my packages were working all right. However, at some moment the Cydia icon just disappeared. I dont remember having deleted it myself so why is gone is beyond me. But I didnt care either, most packages were still working anyway so who cares.
However, yesterday I really wanted to update one of the packages because it was not working alright so I searched the web for a method to restore Cydia WITHOUT touching my applications. I came across a site that assured I only needed to rejailbreak with redsnow without checking all the options. I did so and guess what?? Cydia came back but ALL of my packages and settings were gone! I got very upset but well, it was a chance to start over and reinstall everything I had with the latest versions. But guess again, Cydia throws a lot of errors when trying to install something. It also asks me to upgrade essentials but I get errors too and cant complete the process. So since Cydia is useless I decided that the best thing to do is to make the most of this and this time upgrade the whole iOS and start over but I CANT do that either! There is no option in my iPhone general settings to upgrade and I cant connect to iTunes either because it wont detect my iPhone. I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes and EACH Apple component in my computer like 1056464 times and nothing. I tried iFunBox too and nothing. I tried all my USB ports and still nothing. I can browse my media from my computer but thats about it.
Why is it all this? Its really frustrating and I dont know what to do. I virtually tried everything I could. Please help!
Thank you.
