IPhone :: How To Restore My Phone W/o Updating To Newest Software?
Jun 5, 2010
I would like to restore my jailbroken phone to normal, then re-jailbreak to get rid of a bunch of crap on it. When I click on restore from itunes, it says it will update my software to the newest version, 3.1.3 which I do not want. I want to stay on 3.1.2 so my phone is still able to be unlocked.Anyone know how to get around that, as in restore to factory without having itunes download and install 3.1.3?
As I pluged my iPhone 3GS into a new laptop, I wrongly updated the newest iOS version into my phone. This causes a few content loses and the phone runs very slowly. How can I restore/recover the right iOS at my 3GS?
My iPhone 3gs is stuck in that mode where I can't get pass the white Apple logo even after several hard reboots (holding down the power and bottom center button. After a reboot the white apple logo appears and then it just goes away.I figured out how to get the phone to into recovery mode so that iTunes can do a restore, but I am getting the message that says "Are you sure you want to restore the iPhone to its factory settings" All of your media and other data will be erased and the newest version of the iPhone software will be installed.
Is there any way to do a restore without allowing my iPhone's software to be upgraded to the newest version of iPhone software? I have 3.0 and want to keep it because I use my phone to tether. During the restore phase is there a way to cancel the portion of it that attempts to upgrade my software to the latest software?

I have a an iPhone 4s 5.1. I have just recently updated from iOS 5.01. I kept getting messages saying that i had purchased songs that hadnt transfered and asking if i wanted to transfer them to itunes. i said yes and it immediately said it detected a device but it couldnt read it properly. so i attempted to restore it to factory settings. (after switching out USB cables and uninstalling/reinstalling itunes) i hit restore and it asked if i wanted to restore and i hit yes only to have a pop-up detailing all the new features on the 5.1 update. i cannot get past this point.

I needed to update my phone to the 5.1 before I did I sync it so I could get everything back. Before I hit update I made sure it said last sync with the date and time. I proceed to update and go to sync it so I get all my info back and now I'm getting an error message saying backup is corrupt and can't restore or something along that line. I can restore it to an older backup but not the one I need. There are some very important stuff I am now missing because its an older backup
I've been trying to reset my phone using the recovery mode method, but once i hit restore it asks me whether i want to restore and update or cancel, once i hit restore and update it begins updating until the phone exits recovery mode and cancels the process, how can i restore my phone succesfully without updating or exiting recovery mode?

When restoring an iphone4 I get to the part that says restore from icloud, then enter the user details (if you get them wrong it tells you) then it moves onto the Terms and Conditions page which you then click agree. At this point I either get "there was a problem connecting to the server" or "invalid device while updating mme delegate account". Â
I TRIED updating my nokia 5230 by using OVI suite and during update my nokia 5230 suddenly turned off and updating stopped. I disconnected usb cable and tried to turn on the set but it wont turn on. I tried to recharge it and restart it but it also didnt work. Now its still off and I don`t know what to do anymore.
My update hung at the status "reconnecting to jvm." I know that this has been a problem in the past. A backup was made before installation; and although a second update attempt was succesful, I am unable to find or use the backup that the loader made. I also tried connecting the phone to another computer that I had previously backed it up on, but the computer now recognizes the phone as new, and not as the phone previously backed up. how to correct it? I really just need to restore the contacts.
I have downloaded the latest backup and restore app but I'm still unable to restore my apps as my phone will disconnect from network when i tries to restore the applications.
Since going to the APPLE store and being told yesterday that the 50.1 update was the best update ever and trusting an APPLE employee.I've had nothing but problems, my iPhone's battery drains faster. Turning brightness low, turning everything off. The battery still drained.I came into the store today; low and behold I got my phone restored, didn't help. Do you think there's ANY possible way I can replace my phone to one that doesn't have the newest update?
I have an Xperia SK17i and when I tried to update the phone it don't start up or get into restore mode etc... The only thing that works on it is the LED light and it's flashing red for a few minutes and then it shuts it self down. My computer won't recognise the mobile and I've tried everything.
I have a jailbroken iPhone 3GS. Is it safe to upgrade to the newest iTunes that's just been released? I tried searching but didn't find anything relevant.
If you get it an apple store, I know they activate it for you there. Assuming all the models have 4.0 or 4.01 on it, do they update it to the newest firmware for you there? I only ask because my upgrade availability finally got taken care of, and i wanna pick up another ip4 (which of course I don't want them to so I can jb). My last IP4, I had delivered at home, so I could do what I want. I just don't know what the in store process was.
I have an iPhone 4 with iOS 4.3.3 and I don't want to update it to iOS 5, I currently have iTunes 10.4 version. I'm just wondering would my iPhone with iOS 4.3.3 still will sync with the newest iTunes, which is 10.6.1?
My 4s will not admit that my Simcard is placed inside after upgrading to iOS 5.1.1. I have tried to put the Simcard in several times and restarted the phone, but it still says that it is missing.
