How to delete everything on my iPhone?
I'm selling my iPhone 3GS Tomorow and I want to erase my phone before I sell it but I want all my contacts, photos, apps ect… On my new iPhone 4 I'm going to buy, I don't know what to do please help?
I think there's a Factory Setting in the Settings Option. I think it removes everything.
Burn it
You have to restore it and back it up on your computer and then when you getyour new iphone you simply sync everything in
If your goin to radio shack they will transfer it for you or where every yor buyin it just ask them to transfer all tha stuff from yor old iphone to yor new iphone then you can sell it
First you may want to back up your data either to your computer, or iCloud. This will make the transfer of your data easy to put on a new iPhone (if you will get one eventually).
To ERASE all data on your iPhone, you can do one of two options:
1. Connect your iPhone to a computer and open up the summary and click "Restore"
2. Go to Settings < General < Reset < Erase All Content and Settings
Both of those options will have the same result.

I have never connected my iPhone to my computer but lately it's been acting up so I want to back it up and get the 5 in September if it's out.

If you guys can give me some instructions, that would be awesome.
