What The **** Is It Waiting For?
I love the extra laughs you get whenever you come across some of the little ‘glitches ‘ in the iPhone works.
That icon has actually been sitting round in that state for a couple of weeks or thereabouts, status never changing. It ‘s been long enough that I can ‘t even recall which app was being updated or installed. I guess it wasn ‘t an essential eh? I may have to put it out of its waiting misery soon, and just kill it.
If you ‘ve got any funny iPhone screencaps to share, we ‘d love to see ‘em. Shoot them over via our Contact page any time you like.

You are not using "Categories" are you? Seen this when updating apps that sit inside a category.
Remove the app from its category, then you might have to try the upgrade again (most likely not)
and put it in its category again. Also upgrade within Cydia to the latest version of "Categories".
Nope – not at all. Have used Categories before, but never on my 3GS, which this is happening on. So that's not it. I was going to say I'm fine with just killing the icon, and removing / reinstalling whatever app it is – but just noticed it offers no 'X' next to it when I hold it down and all the others show it, like the built-in apps don't.
Oh well, will see what it does on next reboot of the phone.
That is interesting, I have never seen that before Patrick…. I wonder what it is waiting for too…. LOL
