Can I just update my jailbroken iPhone?
I don't want my phone jailbroken anymore? I want the newest version of iPhone software I don't want the jailbreak, can I just update my iPhone from the device or do I have to restore it first.
I would suggest you make a backup, just in case something happens. Make a backup in iCloud, or if you've got iCloud enabled, just check when the latest update was created, and if its good enough (message history, safari bookmarks, notes, etc… ) for you, proceed to update, it should be fine. You don't need to restore first and then update. After the update if you're missing anything, just restore form the backup from icloud, and to restore any apps that have gone missing, just open up the app store and select the updates tab from the bottom. In the updates page hit the purchased button and you'll see all of your previously purchased apps.
You will not have an issue when updating straight off without restoring first. Enjoy iOS 6 ;)
Restore it with itunes.
- My jailbroken iPhone 4 can't connect to SIM-card after update? The title says it. I have a jailbroken iPhone 4 and as I plugged it into my computer it asked me if I wanted to update the IOS. The updating-process went smoothly, but when I started the phone afterwards it said that it was unable to connect to my SIM-card (that i bought 2 weeks before this). Does anyone know how I can unlock my iPhone?

- Is an iPhone better 'jailbroken' or not 'jailbroken'? I just got the iPhone 5 and I keep hearing about 'jailbreaking' iPhones to be able to do a lot more things.

- In the middle of an iPhone update and my iTunes won't recognise my phone in order to continue to update. Can I stop the update now? Neither the computer nor iTunes are recognising my phone and I've been working on his for an hour, I want to stop the update so I can go to bed, how can I do that? It's only at the stage where it has a symbol on the screen of the iPhone cable linking to iTunes
