That's my last last resort.

This really weird glitch has been going on for a month now and I can't remember how is started. My IOS is 4.2.1 and it is jailbroken. In this picture, instead of having the traditional two buttons at the top, "cancel" and "done", it has nothing. In this picture, instead of having...

So i downloaded PKgbackup and backed up all my files and synced it with itunes. Now lets say something goes wrong when I'm doing the untethered jailbreak and I have to restore my phone. How will I packages and sources back from PKGbackup?

How do I backup all the apps, packages and sources I downloaded from Cydia?

For that, right click on "redsn0w" and go to properties > compatibility and click the latest one. Then go to the task manager (ctrl + alt + delete) and go to redsnow > right click it > set affinity > uncheck "CPU 0"

I think I'm just going to wait for the untethered one to come out because trying to do this JB over and over again is driving me nuts. By the way, how long do you think it'll take for the untethered JB to come out for windows?

I just tried my 4th jailbreak and again redsn0w crashed. This is how my jailbreaks have gone: #1 JB: Screen froze on the pineapple screen #2 JB: redsn0w froze at "exploiting limer1a" #3 JB: redsn0w crashed #4 JB: redsn0w crashed All the attempted JBs were done by using redsn0w 0.9.6b4 on my...

WOW. I have the worst luck. I was trying the JB for the third time and redsn0w crashed on my PC during the JB.

I already ran the JB a second time and the same thing happened, Cydia didn't work. I think I did something wrong because when I "booted in tethered mode" it got stuck on "exploiting limer1a"

Around 3-5 mins

Ok, so I'm on the IOS 4.2.1 on the iPhone 4. I decided to JB my phone. The JB went fine but when I tried to open Cydia, it was white and it kept crashing. So I decided it to boot it in tethered mode and when I did, the boot was stuck on the pineapple logo. I then put my phone into DFU mode and...

Wait a minute. So when you sync the iPhone 4 with iTunes, it means that EVERYTHING on the phone, from photos, to music to contacts gets backed up?! And lets say for example, something goes wrong during the jailbreak. So I just hook up my phone to the computer, restore the phone to factory...

Q1: What is the difference between a tethered and untethered jailbreak? Q2: How do I back up all my music, photos, contacts and apps BEFORE jailbreaking? Q3: Does the app "JailBreakMe" jailbreaks the phone in tethered or untethered state? Q4: What app should I use to jailbreak my phone...
