Help/Support No space left to install Cydia after using Cydia eraser on ios10.2

ciubaca · September 5, 2018

Short story:

1-used cydia eraser for a refresh - got an error that i don't have any space left.

2-used erase all content and settings(bad ideea i know)

3-managed to fix Cydia “Could Not Open File /var/lib/dpkg/status” using Mterminal and now when i try to open cydia and try to update it says that i don't space left to install the necessary updates, so basically i'm back to problem no 1 when i don't have space left on the stashing partition to install cydia. i don't have filza, only Mterminal.

Have you tried running iCleaner?

No, because I can't install anything due to no space left. Even cydia updates can't be installed. Only mterminal works, I think I need a method that I can clear space through mterminal or any other method....

Before I start just want to give you headsup that it will remove all your tweaks but not your jailbreak

As you don’t have fileza installed you will need pc or mac....you can transfer file to documents through SSH command line (which you can learn from watching more of geosnow videos) but Thinking you don’t know that I will recommend you to use putty or mobxterm in your pc from where you can transfer SemiRestore file to private/var/mobile/Documents then you can follow below tutorial.

Hi, thanks for the reply. i managed to copy/paste semirestore using ifunbox and then run using the commands in mterminl from your links. Now when i open cydia it says that i need to complete upgrade and i receive the attached error when it tries to install it. https://imgur.com/gallery/HyGRKJ8

Seems like issue is caused because you used “erase all contents and settings “ Well we can uninstall old cydia(google it) and manually install new version of cydia which might resolve issue or cause more issue if you want to try

....otherwise I will recommend restore/update your phone Or DM this guy in his Twitter account, he will reply

thanks for the reply! i managed to fix it by deleting wallpapers using mterminal. installed stashing,installed filza, installed icleaner but on the stashing partition i have 99% usage where i don;t have tweaks installed. whats safe to delete? in order to clear more space? i remember before i tried to use cydia eraser with over 70 tweaks installed i had the stashing partition at 89%. so basically what;s safe to delete?
