I have 112 apps right now with no difficulties. I’m guessing this is no longer a problem (since the OS has been updated multiple times since the original posts on thread).

Another issue: there is a max limit of 9 home pages, so theoretically there would be a limit of (16×9)=144 Applications?

I have way more than 80 apps on my 1.1.1. I’m pretty sure one of the SummerBoard updates back in the day fixed this issue on a 1.1.1.

I figured out ths problem yesterday. When I was updating to 1.1.3, I was wondering why I got the spinning circle, after restoring it 3 times. I googled it and learned that the app limit caused the problem, but since there was no fix, there was no choice but to turn back to 1.1.2. Too bad the fix didn’t come earlier :\

I have had well over 80 installed for some time now. How did this not effect my iphone (1.1.2)? I have my apps organized into categories, without overlap the categories alone have 93 apps, plus at least a dozen more not in the categories. Did anybody else *not* have this problem?

80 apps sounds like a lot, but spread out over 7 pages, it doesn’t look like that many.
There are about 20 firmware-supplied apps (including the invisible ones)…
I’ve got about 20 utilities just to manage the iPhone, control SSH, etc. This includes Mobile Finder, and all of its plugins…Terminal, and so on.
The rest of the apps can easily be filled an assortment of guitar tuners, virtual instruments, card games, and video game emulators.

I hear that the newest version of SummerBoard (3.2) fixes this…haven’t confirmed it personally though.

This problem has now been fixed with the new SummerBoard 3.2.
