(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); My question is simple : How do I remove jailbreak without losing any of my files (apps/photos/videos/music etc )

There's also one problem,when I connect my iPhone to the pc iTunes doesn't sync with it and asks for a format ,so there's that ...

I'm currently on tethered Upside Down Happycry: :n: ) redsn0w for iOS 4.3.4 (8K2).

The problem is that I can't even turn it off because it will get stuck and I'll have to go back to my PC to reboot it, the NETWORK doesn't work at all because I bought AT&T version and I'm not in america and the fucking retail store didn't properly unlock it so now it's stuck without any network ! Another thing is that I have been using for a long time so I have many important files on it that I don't want to lose any of them just cause my iTunes for some bitchy reason doesn't sync with it at all... And since you all know, Installous doesn't work anymore so what's the point. I even lost my Cydia,like it literally disappeared I have no idea where it is ! That pretty much sums up everything ...


I will stay online for a long period of time and i will offer vBux in return to the one who helps me out ! Don't worry I am not a scammer because I have so many vBux points that I don't even use ...

I am sorry to say but the only way I have found to remove a jailbreak without damaging iBoot is to restore the device 100%, so I reccomend that you get everything you need off the device then do a device restore. I know this because I have been Jailbreaking and Rooting iOS Devices and Android Devices for the past 2 years. If you need any help at all with getting things off the device just send me a PM. But sadly that is the only way to go, unless someone elce on here knows better :/

What do you mean by iBoot? Is it possible , after restoring 100% , to put my files back on iPhone through a back-up or something ?

iBoot is the bootloader that Apple has on all iOS devices. By removing the untether package on a device through Cydia it can damage the boot sequence. But you have a tethered jailbreak so no matter. And yes you can back up your data and put it back on, using iTunes backup. It has worked for me when I restore my device. If you need more help PM me mate Smile

I don't really understand the " By removing the untether package on a device through Cydia it can damage the boot sequence. But you have a tethered jailbreak so no matter." part :/ Is it a good thing or a bad thing? Do you have some sort of Chatting Account like Skype or facebook I can chat with you on because I want to do this asap and with caution Smile

1 more thing,is it okay to back up using another program then iTunes coz my iPhone doesn't sync with it anymore for some reason ...

You can use IFunBox to back up most of what you've listed since it gives you full access to your device but I don't know about contacts or msgs also. If your phone doesn't sync with Itunes did you download appsync from cydia from a source? The only thing I see here that may not be able to back up is your apps since your un-jailbreaking your Iphone and there is no way to put them back except Itunes.

So no one has mentioned the most obvious solution then. Sigh.

First things first did you back up to iTunes or was it to the cloud?

If it was with iTunes not a problem but it is preferable that you don't use iTunes and update for the cloud feature.

Tap settings and go to the "General" page and go to the bottom and choose "Reset" then enter your pass code if you have one and erase your phone. (Don't worry this is why we check to see if you had a backup)

Once done use iTunes check to see if there is a backup by going to "Settings-Devices" and see when the closest back up is.

Also to note have you got your SHSH blobs saved otherwise you will have to update or use iFaith to grab a copy and save them locally to use with tinyumbrella.

Either way by restoring you WILL LOSE the following "Music-Apps-Videos(from videos app not in the camera roll"

Or you could update when available then you retain all the music and apps and things but this is all dependenant on if there is a update for your iDevice available.

This is why I choose to backup to the cloud and not to iTunes which is a feature only available in iOS 5+ so why are you not on there any ways?
