What is a springboard crash?
ussually it happens when jailbreaking its when you over load the spring board. an example is when you download some thing from cydia or icy and it won't work on your device so you go to safe mode then you have to delete it.
If your device is jailbroken, we cannot provide support for you here.
I have never jailbroken my iPod, or is there a way to jailbreak without even knowing it? I dont even know HOW to jailbreak!!
as far as i know, my device is NOT jailbroken.
Well spring board crashes usually happen with a jailbroken device so you don't need to worry about that happening to you.
Can you screenshot your home screen? Quickly press then release the home and power buttons at the same time to take a screenshot. Then please post it here.
Its not that big of a deal.
well i will tell you what happened and see if i can know a cause:
I took a screen shot
Went into photos
went into the screenshot
pressed edit
pressed crop
Then it came up with a circle spinning and a few seconds later my screen was locked and i couldnt crop the photo.
I could crop any photo but that one, and it did the same thing again, so i deleted it.
No problems since but afraid of a reoccurence.
in my diagnostics and usage data it had "Latest Crash - SpringBoard" or something along the lines of that.
did you use the newsstand glitch to put it in a folder and then touch newsstand in that folder? that will cause springboard to crash...
why do i need to do that?
(reffering to stevejobsfan telling me to post screenshot)
I can't even put newstand in a folder....
Were you in Photos or iPhoto?
So did i answer the questions
