Iphone 4 won't restore to get cydia after snowbreeze jailbreak?
So I updated my iphone 4 to ios 6.0.1. I had my iphone jailbroke before when it was on ios 5.1.1 but it was getting slow so I restored it and backed up all my data so I didn't loose anything. I want a couple of apps but they cost money which I don't want to pay for. I knew that with installous 5 on cydia you could get free apps. So I wanted to jailbreak my phone again. I've been looking for a jailbreak for ios 6.0.1 for a while now and I just found one today. It was snowbreeze 2.9.7. (i'm pretty sure that's what it was). Anyways I downloaded it which took like an hour. I then put my phone into DFU mode as told in the instructions. That took another 10 minutes or so. It then said to hook up my iphone in the latest version of iTunes which I had just downloaded today also. When I opened iTunes it said "ITunes has detected an iphone in recovery mode, you must restore this iphone before it can be used with iTunes." The instuctions on snowbreeze said that I had to get on iTunes and go to my settings for my phone where you can restore it and all that. It then said to hold the shift button and click restore iphone. I did so and a screen came up with an icon that on the bottom said what snowbreeze said it needed to say. I clicked on that and snowbreeze said it should've said "restore" but instead it said "The iphone "iphone" could not restore because firmware file is not compatible." I really thought it was going to be jailbroken after numerous times of trying.
One Word- - - Bricked. It will not work until A long period of time. Sorry. You should of waited fro green poison or redsn0w
Make sure the ipsw is compatiable, right deviec ETC.
Or else put the device into DFU mode then restore.
Easy fix, ignore the other noob, you can only brick via a hardware malfunction
- What will happen to apps installed via cydia if I will delete cydia? I jailbroken the iphone for the purpose of installing an app which is not available in appstore. Now I do not need cydia anymore, I can delete it by deleting its packages. But what will happen to the app that is installed using cydia if I will remove cydia?

- If you disabled FindMyiPhone to restore your device, will the app be enabled again after the restore? A few weeks ago I upgraded to the iPhone SE and I restored the data from my iPhone 4s onto it. (I had to disable FindMyiPhone in the process). Little did I know that it would be lost/stolen 2 weeks later. Really need to know if FindMyiPhone would be enabled because I want to know if I still have any hope at all finding it. Thanks. I tried the app already… Says it's offline. Been waiting since.
- I restarted my iphone 4 shortly after i had it jailbroken. Now Cydia won't start? I recently got my iphone jailbroken. And after a while of enjoying the wonders of the iphone, i decided to restart it. But any apps installed from installous or anything from Cydia and even Cydia itself won't start. Can some one help me?
