I may be the only one that had this issue, but when I installed iphone video recorder, my phone wouldn't respond to touch and I had to force it to reboot. The phone was slow as hell, but I managed to get into Installer and unistall it, whereby all detrimental symptoms ceased.

Has anyone tried the Sugar Tracker app yet? I'm diabetic so it would be a very useful app for me. However after downloading it says that it couldn't find BSD (which I have installed) and then a message comes up saying to change some files using Mobile Finder. I didn't change them because it sounded fishy but was wondering if anyone else has tried?

You may not have issues with it, it's just in the list because problems are possible, so you should be careful. As far as uninstalling goes, you should uninstall things you've downloaded with Customize in Customize before uninstalling it.

iToday is a problem app. Right now, it has deactivated the ability of any apps from launching on my phone. A co-worker had the same issue and had to restore. I'm in class and will restore when I get home or tomorrow morning.

Rule of Thumb: look out for Skrew's apps. They're awesome but highly unstable and risky.

Thanks. I added it to the list.

Good Day

During my recent self-inflicted illness, I have been downloading apps to my phone.
I lost my Installer icon after downloading a large number of items in a queue on Installer.

Therefore, with the help of Enigmanic, I upgraded to 1.1.4.

We were both curious as to what app caused my Installer icon to disappear. After a closer examination, through Mobile Finder, I discovered that the entire program was gone. The file was there but it was completely empty.

I was downloading apps today and found the culprit which caused my phone to need to be restored 3 times.

FONT SWAP.

Yes, through the scientific method (installing one app at a time) I discovered that this Font Swap, was a BETA and completely emptied out the Installer file.
It also caused my Weather program to crash when trying to add new cities.
I had used the previous version of Font Swap with no problems for months, I guess the BETA is bad.

It may just be me, but I am ABSOLUTELY SURE that Font Swap caused problems.

Good Day

FontSwap is on the list. It's getting quite lengthy now.

If you see this, Chris, I'd still like this thread stickied. Thanks.
