Backing up your tweaks and sources???

[iJeff]

If and when IOS5 comes out for the final build, is there a way to back up all your tweaks and sources without having to enter them back in one by one??

Get pkgBackup app, or aptBackup app, or xBackup app from cydia. Use at least 2 of those to backup your cydia apps/tweaks just to be safe in case one fail to restore the other one will.

How does this work being you have to re jail break and you loose everything untill you jailbreak it again? Does it reconize the saves once you re-install the app?

PkgBackup will backup all your sources names and all your apps/tweaks names and save them either to drop box or even send all the list to your mailbox, also is can save it to your contact list as code, in this last case where is save the file in your contact list, you will need to backup your phone using iTunes. The other backup tool work almost the same way but you must read the instruction incase I'm mistaking here since those way to backup restore change all the time and depending on the version of the app.
After restoring and jailbreak, restore your iPhone contacts etc using iTunes, install form cydia those backup apps first on your phone, run them and they will locate the cydia apps/tweaks backup files either in your contacts or somewhere online.
