    How to update to 3.1.2 from 3.0 on a jailbroken 3GS?

    Thanks, that makes perfect sense, I appreciate you taking the time to explain it. Sorry I wasn't a bit more specific though, I have a 3G, not a 3GS. I was a bit confused because I've had the phone jailbroken for over a year and haven't run into something like this during any previous updates...

    How to update to 3.1.2 from 3.0 on a jailbroken 3GS?

    I'm not trying to unlock my phone, just update from jailbroken 3.0 to jailbroken 3.1.2. My primary concern: I've seen a few posts mentioning problems with blackra1n jailbreaks, specifically that after powering the phone off, you need to connect it to a computer to power it back on correctly...

    Backing Up Your iPhone

    Backing Up Your iPhone

    I've run into a potentially big problem here. What exactly is saved when you backup your iphone before doing an upgrade like 3.0? Situation: My laptop died a few weeks ago, so I used a friend's computer to do my 3.0 upgrade. My iphone then developed boot problems requiring a restore to fix it...

    iPhone 3G on 3.0 JB'd now frozen... Thoughts?

    OK, time to make this a bit more interesting. I'm having the same issue, and I understand that a restore can fix it. However, my laptop died on me two days ago so I've got nothing to restore from until I get it fixed. I can use someone else's itunes, but is there anyway to fix the phone...

    Winterboard Keyboard Themes NOT loading

    Some seem to work, some dont. For example, beach color notes in Cydia works fine on 3.0. Unfortunately, SpeedSMS and Glossy Keyboard still don't work. I forgot how boring the standard sms screen was!
