Help/Support Cydia issues

Lord Alucard · March 22, 2017

So I was randomly doing stuff around the house last night when I unlocked my phone randomly, and all of my App Store apps had disappeared. The space was still taken up by the said apps, but when connected to iTunes on my PC, it was considered as "Other". So I restored from a previous iCloud backup and got all my apps back and reinstalled yalu102. I then attempted to go into cydia, but when I opened it and went to where you update your tweaks, there were 10+ things to install, so I did, and I got "Dpkg Locked". So I powered my phone off and then back on. Cydia is now gone and someone of my tweaks like Filza and iFile and Flex3 are gone, but it says I'm Jailbroken still. Anything will help. I already googled my issue

Are you low on disk space by chance?

Try to ssh using your computer and then reinstall cydia substrate and cydia installer

Good idea, my friend had similar problems with his iPhone 7 and I forget what version of Yalu he was using but he had the dkpg error too and I think after trying a bunch of shit on google that this is what fixed it.

Hello Lord, see you had a slight issue last night, not to worry let's see if we can get you up and running again ..... iOS 10 Jailbroken DPKG Locked, right then ...

First download this .rar file and exctract it to your desktop.

CydiaFix : https://mega.nz/#!jshEDJDA!CHee9lDkYM5d6MLzoLni4uHTn8VxkUUZfULRWBVMfTc

You will need Cydia impactor and let's say iFunbox or something similar if you prefer ...

Connect your jailbroken device to your computer via USB and launch iFunBox.

Find the File Browser functionality and navigate to the "iBooks" section.

○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

When you extracted the .rar file "CydiaFix" it would of provide you with a folder titled “lib“, and an IPA file.

○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

Drag the entire “lib” folder across to the "iBooks" directory in iFunBox and drop it in there.

Now launch Cydia Impactor and drag the "MobileTerminal.ipa" file into the interface with your device connected to the computer.

○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

Obviously enter Apple ID and Password for Cydia impactor.

○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○

The "MobileTerminal" app Should appear on your device.

Launch Settings and then navigate to

General > Device Management.

Select your own Apple ID and then hit Trust and Trust again on the certificate.

With the device in a Jailbroken mode, launch MobileTerminal.

Type in the following commands, tap enter after each one :

su

alpine

cp -R /var/mobile/Media/Books/lib /var

mkdir /var/log/apt

Reboot the device.

After reboot reactive the jailbreak and run Cydia.

You should be all fixed and ready to rumble.

Let me know if you need anything else buddie.

iDavie.

PS: Hope my spelling is ok, I tried mate ????

Did u install Filza? If you did

download a file while in jailbroken state

Open with filza (don't worry about the random file, just use it to access filza. That's the only way I can when my stuff disappears.)

Go into root

Delete .cydia_no_stash and .yalu_X (at very bottom)

Reboot your device then rejailbreak

There u go it should be fixed.

edit: this forces cydia to reinstall, and is by far the easiest if you've downloaded filza while jailbroken.

I deleted filza like an hour ago
