Since the new Quickpwn arrived for 2.2, I have had this problem twice, both of which have resulted in a restore.

I jailbreak my Iphone 3G as normal, everything works perfect, I installed a few apps, all works great.

One app I came across, I wasnt keen on, so decided to delete, I deleted the app as normal. Soon after I deleted it, my phone froze, and wouldnt move (froze on main screen) it then unfroze for a few seconds to freeze again, has rebooted its self numerous times, and sometimes stays on standby so I have to hard reset it .

Also freezes on the unlock slide screen, and it seems as if its freezing/lagging as the the writing on the slide bar seems laggy.

I literally cannot do anything with my phone, which forces me to restore...

What could be causing this problem?

I have discovered that since 2.1 it is best to not install or delete apps directly from the iPhone. My experience, I'm sure others have different opinions. I do know that since I use only itunes to install, upgrade or delete AppStore apps, I havent had any problems at all.

^^^i will agree with this on the iphone, on the ipod touch its not an issue at all but it is with the iphone

Ok, so is it best to SSH into the phone and delete the .app folder from there? rather than from the springboard on the phone?
