Lovely solution !!! U r a star
Just to add that if some1 does not want to remove the push suppoted applications before installing “Push Fix” from cydia, alternatively u can just “TURN OFF” the push notification by going into the specific application settings, and then install “Push Fix”
It really works! Thank you!

2. After the reboot, reset your wifi settings. goto an other website and make sure your wifi is working. Your mail setting pwd. might also have been reset. check and makesure of it too.
3. Then try Youtube. it works fine.

Works perfektly!
Many thanks!
It worked for me at the second try.
The first time, my Wi-fi got worse and did not even detect any networks.
Then I uninstalled the “Push Fix” package and re-installed it.
Works perfect now.
One thing I found different on this instruction is the part that it tells us to add source through “more package source” whereas other website I have seen tells us to add it through “manage” function on cydia. I don’t know if this is suppose make a difference but it did to me
Thanks.
How long does it take to download the packages and update the sources? My phone has been on the same screen for like 15 mins. Please let me know.
It shouldn’t take more than 5 mins. Try again.
I tried to get Push Fix from Cydia and it couldn’t find it.. help
