Jailbreak worked just fine but can't re-jailbreak after restart. (black screen) #251

I own an ipad mini 2 on iOS 10.3.1 and I was able to jailbreak it without a problem with G0blin RC2 but after installing Blutrol, which required a restart, I can't "re-jailbreak" because the screen goes black after saying "you're Jailbroken" and the button says "finnishing" now I have the option to wait on the black screen for the ipad to automatically restart after a few minutes or I force reboot it to a non-jailbroken state again. I had no issues with restarting and re-jailbreaking the ipad before just yesterday. I'm not sure if the tweak Blutrol caused this issue.

already tried deleting g0blin from the ipad and using impactor to reinstall it, didn't change anything, also tried airplane mode "someone suggested that" also didn't help. I also always check if the CPU is in idle and enough ram is available.

is there a fix for this particular issue? as I couldn't find my issue elsewhere. or do I have to restore to my last backup and redo the jailbreak, and reinstall and reconfigure the tweaks again?

Also tried to exit out of g0blin app after it says device is now jailbroken, it goes to the springboard and still immedietely goes to the black screen, what I also noticed is that my computer still has access to the ipad while it is in the black screen, including Impactor. First I thought this was the same issue I had before where just G0blin would turn black and I was still able to close it and re-open it. but in this case now i have no control over the ipad untill it's restarted and back in non-jailbroken state.

Ok Issue is solved, the kind people of the r/jailbreak discord helped me and you have to press the Jailbreak button in G0blin while holding the volume up button, then I was able to remove Blutrol, and afterwards I just rebooted the ipad and jailbroke normally and everything is working again.
