If you’re jailbroken on iOS 8 and you have Cydia installed, you should check for a new version of Substrate that just went live.
Cydia Substrate 0.9.5014 comes right on the heels of the Pangu team’s 0.2 Untether updatefor iOS 8. Both Pangu and Saurik are working around the clock to shore up as many bugs and issues as possible related to the jailbreak and subsequent Cydia support.
Here are Saurik’s release notes for the updated package:
Cydia Substrate 0.9.5014 fixes a few bugs reported on iOS 8 with 0.9.5013, including “apps do not install”, “iTunes does not sync”, and “icons are gone”.This issue sometimes led to devices being unable to boot without disabling Substrate (holding down volume up).
And on the Pangu 8.0-8.1 Untether page in Cydia:
As this update makes Substrate work more consistently, installing this update exposed bugs in Substrate 0.9.5013 for many users. It is important to also use the latest versions of Substrate (at least version 0.9.5014) with this new untether.
(If you're curious for more detail, this is what saurik was discussing fixing in this comment about why he temporarily pulled the Pangu untether 0.2 update.)
Just to be clear, these updates don't fix the problem causing devices to freeze upon booting if you set a passcode. More detail from the Pangu 8.0-8.1 Untether page in Cydia:
Updating this package requires a reboot; please note that rebooting can surface problems unrelated to the untether or Cydia Substrate. If you've set a passcode/TouchID, rebooting may cause your device to freeze: please disable passcodes/TouchID until further notice (sorry :/). Having incompatible tweaks installed can also cause problems upon rebooting.
As mentioned, you will need to be jailbroken and already have Cydia installed to install this update. If you’ve yet to jailbreak or install Cydia, you can do so using our iOS 8 jailbreak tutorial and Cydia installation guide.
Have you updated to Cydia Substrate 0.9.5014 yet?
