BigBoss error in Cydia [7.0.3] - jamo796 - Jan 15, 2014

I need to add preferenceloader... But whenever I try to load the bigboss repo I get

Quote:Failed to fetch
http://apt.thebigboxx.org/repofiles/cydia/dists/stable/main/binary-iphoneos-arm/Packages.bz2 Hash Sum mismatch

Some index files failed to download, they have been ignored, or old ones used instead.


Is this a problem with bigboss, or cydia? Other repos are working fine.

You have to re install cydia... Since big boss is one of the default packages, cydia didt install it right.

Try removing the ultrasn0w repo. Also let cydia refresh.

Does that require re-jailbreaking?

Also I've removed and re-added bigboss multiple times. It's just not working.

try using icleaner or do it yourself manually by:

Navigate to /private/etc/apt/sources.list.d

Delete the file "cydia.list"

Navigate to /var/lib/apt/lists

Delete all of the files in this folder except the one called "lock"

Navigate to /var/lib/apt/lists/partial

Delete all of the files in this folder

Navigate to /var/lib/cydia

Delete the file "metadata.plist"

Restart Cydia. You should be at the first screen you saw when you first started Cydia: What kind of user are you? Make your selection and Cydia will re-generate the default sources

Removing the ultrasn0w repo? No.

Go to manage -> sources -> edit and remove the ultrasn0w repo.

I meant to quot the "Re-install Cydia" post.

Also I removed ultrasn0w repo, still get same error.

doesnt make since, why would you have to remove a repo that is not connected to the error. if it was failing to fetch from the ultrasn0w repo then sure delete it.but its not sooo why would that be problem?😶
