How to restore jailbroken iphone 4S?
I can't seem to open cydia. The moment i open it, it goes back to main page. I'm not able to restore in it anyway or reinstall it.
Tried using erase setting and content but it seems useless. I'm quite slow in this so a detailed explaination would be preferred. If you don't mind, maybe you can leave me your email and guide me along.
Thanks a million to those who can help. I have been stuck in this situation for months. :'
Connect your phone to iTunes and use the restore feature. It will erase everything from your phone and allow you to reinstall the phones factory software.
This might not work either because you ave jailbroke your phone, but its the only way of restoring it properly once its been jailbroken.
Take this as a note, no matter what people tell you, you can't always undo a jailbreak, so if you jailbreak you're accepting that there's a chance your going to end up with no usable phone at all.
- Why can't I restore my jailbroken iPhone 4? I jailbroke my iphone 4 using redsn0w 0.9.10.b6. This was a semi tethered jailbreak and i have turned my phone on and off. I now want to completely remove the jailbreak by restoring my iphone. But iTunes brings up an error- 'firmware not compatible'. I was wondering how i can get past this? (by the way i'm trying to remove it because it no longer works when i download the jailbreak tool- as i deleted it ages ago)

- What can I do to restore my Unlocked & Jailbroken iPhone 3g? I recently got the phone. I tried to erase everything on the phone while it was near death, and I think it died while doing so. It then went into recovery mode. I tried to put it into iTunes to restore it, but that keeps failing too. The phone has a custom firmware, and I have no idea where or how to get the firmware to properly restore the phone to. Any ideas?
