Have been having some problems with unlocking my iPhone 4, ios 5.1.1.

This has been the case for the past two days - since i had backed up my iPhone 4 with iTunes, the issues started.]

Sometimes the phone unlocks without issue but other times, when I try unlocking the phone, by sliding the lock screen, and keying in passcode, it just hangs and the screen is frozen at my lock screen picture.

Sometimes the phone crashes and re starts again but other times, it stays stuck and i have to reboot the phone by pressing home+power button.

And even when I reboot, it works sometimes but other times it simply happens again and i have to reboot phone another time.

These crashes are totally random and can happen any time.

I have NOT updated or installed ANY new Cydia tweaks recently. Could a tweak simply stop working well with another without being updated?

What is the cause for these issues i may be having? Do i have to restore the iPhone 4, or is there another solution for this problem?
 
Check to see if you have your SHSH blobs for iOS 5.1.1 using Cydia (look at the top of the main screen on your iPhone) or use RedSn0w/TinyUmbrella or any application to check to see which blobs are available on Cydia's server since your device is jailbroken. We'd try to use this as a last resort but checking it ahead of time can save us a bit of time.

Try booting your device in safe mode and see if the same problem occurs there. To put in safe mode, you can do this through SBSettings if you have it installed and have access to it. Or, you can turn your device off. Hold the volume up button and turn your device on by briefly holding the power/sleep button as usual, or you can hold the volume up button and plug it into your computer if you want, either way works. Keep holding the volume up button until you get to the lock screen. Then slide to unlock and see if anything goes wrong (it shouldn't really). Then open up Settings.app > General > About > Diagnostics & Usage > Diagnostics & Usage Data and see if you see anything that has the date of when your device started to not unlock properly, or today's date even. It would be something like 2013-01-26-XXXXXX.panic.plist. Make sure it says panic.plist and not Low Memory. What this does is that it shows us whether or not it's a system/hardware or software issue that's causing this. If you see it, it's a system/hardware issue, if you don't see it, it's a software issue. But in both cases, it's easily fixed with a restore, which we'll try to lean away for now.

I've saved the blobs for 5.0.1 and 5.1.1 in TU.

Yes, the files end with panic.plst.

Attaching some screenshots fyi.

Besides a restore, is there any other solutions for my iphone?

Copying and pasting the full text here.

Text as follows.

Maybe someone could help interpret the data and help me diagnose what went wrong? :)
