I recently had problems with my unlocked phone's voicemail and texting. I called apple's tech support and to no avail nothing could be done to rectify the situation short of reseting it to factory settings. I reset the phone to factory setting by way of the phone and not itunes and when I synched with itunes it notified me that the phone would be reset but updated to the most recent software upgrade which is the 3.1. Anyone has any ideas on how I can reset back to the 3.0 software rather than the new 3.1 so I can jailbreak my phone again?

Why use redsn0w when PwnageTool is more reliable in matters like these? I heard before that redsn0w is sort of quicker, but who cares about that?

Was wondering if 3.0.1 is breakable. I've been out of the loop for a while, the last thing I heard was that the latest iTunes version was a liability to jailbroken phones and not to update. Then I read something about 3.0.1 not being supported officially. Hopefully someone can clarify this for me. Thanks

About 3.0.1, read here... http://blog.iphone-dev.org/post/153409604/recyc...

guys I heard there was a cydia app that lets you backup your jailbreaked apps so you don't have to manually re-install everything and loose all your "game records" and shit. Someone can help?

thanks

Are you talking about aptbackup?

I would say he is...

I just recommend always doing a restore from brand new! Just SSH all ur information or important information and very simple and fast to get everything back onto the iPhone. Then sync with iTunes afterwards.

Which directories do you typically copy over? I'm familiar with unix, but haven't used an Apple nix based device

Uhhhhh well it depends really what u want. Pictures? SMS? Mail? Cookies? Roms? Apps? I dunno lol I just do what I think I may want. But really, I never use them after wards as I just prefer to start from scratch :)

so how does one avoid it?

I hate itunes and don't trust that it won't just do whatever the hell it wants when it wants without asking me

Just don't click "update" when iTunes prompts.

well that I can handle then :)

Same old, same old lol
Never jump on updates until everything is settle, unless u don't care about jailbreaking and unlocking, then go for it!
Its good though they keep us posted!

I guess the rate of "new" jailbreakers increases so quickly they have to update or else people will be crying up a storm "my iPhone doesn't work anymore, wahh!" hehe
