nrenz123 Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 What is the problem? which jailbreak have you used? Quote
UNABASHED Posted December 24, 2009 Author Posted December 24, 2009 my phone (3g) is currently jailbroken and has been for about 6 months or so. I want to upgrade to 3.1.2 but I assume that if i do that through itunes then it will revert back to unbroken state and i will loose all app's and settings etc that only work with jailbroken phone? Looking at dev team blog i know there is blackra1n for unlocking/jailbreaking once software is updating but is there any way to update the software and keep everything the same? I might not be making sense here! Quote
cydine Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 If you are talking about backing up jailbreak apps then grab an app from cydia called aptbackup. It takes a listing of all your jailbreak apps and stores it with your regular backup in itunes. Then after you upgrade just reinstall aptbackup, hit the restore button and all is as it was before.

stanski Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 Your heros you lot I dare'nt risk jailbraking mine - tied into a 2 year contract ! Although the alure of some apps is tempting I'd rather not! Good luck with it - I am sure its fine plenty of people have done it and upgraded Quote
BRO-T Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 Hi all, You can now jailbreak the iphone 3.1.2 and be able to restore abck to previous versions of the OS software. What you need to look for is a product called blackra1n. PM me and I can send you a link to the step by step guides and downlaod links. IPSW, itunes and blackra1n app Quote
UNABASHED Posted December 24, 2009 Author Posted December 24, 2009 I've got blackra1n and that's fine for breaking it after software update it applied but by applying the software update it would unbreak my phone and remove all my settings/games/apps/layout etc. I'll take a look at aptbackup and give it a bash again tonight. incidently, is there anything new and exciting with 3.1.2? Guy at work has found a floating version of v4 in the depths of the web and is trying to sort that at moment apparently. Quote
BRO-T Posted December 24, 2009 Posted December 24, 2009 Applying the update will reset all your settigns, this is something that I have come to live with! Never tried aptbackup, let me know if its any good. Quote
