I have a 3gs that's been jailbroken with redsn0w, the current software is 3.0.1 and I want to update to 3.1.3. What steps do i take to update my phone? Do I just plug it into itunes and restore then download the new 3.1.3 and new version of redsnow and jail break like i originally did? Also what's the best way to save all my contacts, photos, music before I restore?
I currently have a jailbroken iphone 3GS with OS version 3.1.2 with AT&T. I have been searching the web with no luck on how to go about updating to 3.1.3 and keeping all my apps. I have made a backup of my phone, and was thinking about clicking update in itunes to 3.1.3 and then running spirit then doing a restore of the backup. Is this the right way i should be doing this?
So I went to the Apple store in Ardmore, Pa to pick up a ip4 and while I was waiting I picked up one of the display ip4s. I immediately noticed an app on the phone called Cydia. I had never seen a jail broken iPhone before but I have heard the name Cydia associated with JBing, but I assumed the cydia app on the display phone was something legit. I asked one of the geniuses if the phones were jailbroken because several of the phones had the cydia app on them. He scoffed and said of course they're not jail broken. Then another genius told me that they were indeed jail broken and proceeded to remove them all from the display.
My phone: 3gs, jailbroken on 3.1.2 with bootrom 5.11.07 using pwnagetool 3.1.4. Itunes is at 9.1.Basically I'm stuck in recovery mode and I can't restore my phone. I get error messages in itunes everytime.
It started when I mistakenly updated itunes to 9.1. My phone wasn't being recognized to sync. So I thought why not erase all content on the phone itself? Stupid me didn't research it and didn't know I wasn't supposed to do that.
After the erase, my phone was in a constant cycle of rebooting (with the pineapple logo) and it wasn't being recognized on itunes. So I put it in recovery mode and tried restoring my custom ipsw and it won't. Tried restoring to factory settings in itunes and it won't.
Is the phone bricked? Is there anything I can do? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've researched for a couple of days and nothing seems to work.
6 months back I bought one i phone, afterwords, immediately I have jail broken, and upon jail broken if I put sim it could not be actived. Now I want to overcome from the jail break and I want the factory mode and I want to use sim activation. Will my doubts be cleared

How do you make the status bar invisible? I saw people doing this by adding an effect in Photoshop to the top of their wallpapers. I can't figure it out. I tried searching and found nothing.
can i change the background on my ipod touch (not wallpaper) without a jailbreak? is there an app that does this? everything i could find said i needed a jailbreak, but i'd rather not do that.
First off im really impressed with the things you can now do with jail breaking the iphone..i never did it to my 3g just cause of all the crashes people were having but i finally said wow this is too easy thru jailbreakme.com so i took the plung on my IP4

home button went out first then power button ive seen and tried the videos on Internet.. some work for about a day then my home button goes back to not working... not sure what to do. my phones warrenty and what not is to no use..
After attempting to upgrade software for my iphone 4s via itunes, the upgrade failed and my phone froze with a picture of an usb plug.I even uninstalled security on my computer.
Can I use someone else's upgrade? Yes, this is called an "upgrade swap". AT&T will allow you to upgrade any line to receive a new phone. You can then activate that phone on any phone line you like. Apple is able to do this in store also, but it requires a bit more time since they have to call AT&T first. If you pre-order and recieve the phone by mail, you will need to contact AT&T to let them know that you will be activating the phone on another line."
My current situation: I am on a family plan with a total of two lines. My line is not eligible until 7/23, so all I can get is "early upgrade pricing". My mom's line is currently eligible for "full upgrade pricing". I am planning on using my mom's upgrade to get an iPhone 4. I want to preorder the phone from Apple.com on the 15th, and hopefully receive it the afternoon of the 24th. From my understanding, the microSIM that ships with the phone will be programmed for the line whose upgrade was used. However, the iPhone Upgrade Guide makes it sound like I can call AT&T once I receive the phone (and before I activate it), and have AT&T switch the microSIM from my mom's line to mine. Is this possible?
I have a message in my settings telling me that i can upgrade my IOS, but i don't want to upgrade at this time. How can i get rid of the red message mark?
So I've searched online, plenty of information about enabling a passlock, so you can disable the 'SMS preview'. on my iPhone 3G it worked too, but on this new 3GS (OS 3.1.3) I have no option where I should for disabling the SMS preview. I've enabled and disabled a passlock many times, nothing appears. I can't have my text messages freely available on the screen for anyone who pick it up to read.
So, I needed to restore my iPhone because of this huge glitch that came with one of the recent updates apparently.My phone kept thinking its "other" section was taking up 2.7g of space. So I looked through the forums and the only option I had was to restore.So, I backed up everythng and did so.As soon as the phone turned itself back on I hit the restore from previous backup. Then an error occured. I tried again. More errors saying it couldnt restore. So, I unplugged it and pluged it back in and what does teh phone do? It makes a backup of itself after it had been wiped of its data for restore. Alot of my data is lost now. Thankfully I had most of it saved because I had to manually navigate through the phone and pick it out myself just in case an incident like this occured. Guess what? It did. So really this all started with a problem Apple caused in its faulty product with a solution that failed that I never should have had to resort to in the first place. So, thank you Apple.
I dropped my iPhone 5s and cracked the screen. It was taken to a repair shop at which point I was told the phone was broken internally as well. The phone itself still works, however the screen will not turn on. You can feel and hear it vibrate when it's plugged in and it appears in iTunes when plugged into my computer. I've purchased a new iPhone so now I just need to transfer the old phone's data to the new. However, when I try to back up the old phone, it asks that I unlock the phone. I can't do this without a display though.
I got a notification from the App Store that said there was an update for the Facebook Messenger app, so I tried to install it. When it was finished downloading, instead of installing it gave me an error message and then the app icon disappeared, leaving a blank space where it used to be. I thought I would be able to reinstall it from the App Store, but it tells me that the app is already installed. If I go to App Store > Updates > Purchased, it is on the list and has a button that says "Open" next to it which does nothing. I have tried restarting and resetting my phone, and I did a backup from iTunes, none of which has changed anything.
Only my right external speaker is giving out sound. If I cover it up I can't hear anything. Seem the left speaker isn't given out any sound. Could I have a setting wrong? Or is my speaker broken and as a result need a replacement phone?

after updating my iPhone I canīt tether via USB. The network connection shows up in control panel after connecting but says that the cable is disconnected.
Donīt know if Bluetooth or WLAN tethering would work, since I never used them before.
My 3GS is broken - screen damaged and LED failed. I now have a new phone but is is an Android. The telephone number has been ported to the new phone but when anyone with an iPhone messages me it automatically switches to iMessage and sends it to the bust phone even though it's not functioning. The failure of the 3GS is complete and there is no way of accessing it and making any changes through any of the phone settings. Is there a way of unregistering it from the iMessage server as at the moment none of my friends and colleagues can contact me by message.
I went to the genius bar and they sais they can't fix it.But they said I could pay $150 to get it replaced.Does this mean they will give me any iPhone I want or it must be the current type I have which is 3GS.
So three months into buying the new iphone 4s I dropped it and broke both front and black glass screens. Does anyone know what I could do to obtain new screens or phone replacement from apple?
