Is it possible for me to semi restore my jailbroken iphone 5 without using a computer?
So basically, I had my jaikbreak for a good few months now, today I accidentally deleted a few from ifile called "application" it was in the stash folder…
None of my apps wouldn't open after that so I decieded to then turn my phone off and on again, when my phone rubes back on all my "stock apps and also cydia apps" was all deleted. I can't find them anywhere
I don't have a laptop ATM so I can't restore my iphone, can someone help me how to fix this issue please without a computer or laptop?
The phone is working completely fine, just the stock apps and cydia apps are gone, only able to use third party apps that I downloaded from the App Store.
Serious answers please.
Sorry for the babble
Restoring an iPhone is useful if you're going to sell the device or if you want to troubleshoot it after data has been corrupted. The iPhone has a built in reset option programmed into the phone itself. With the introduction of the iCloud service, you no longer need to connect the phone to a computer to restore through the iTunes software.
Backing Up Your iPhone
Step 1
Connect to the Internet through a Wi-Fi connection. A typical iPhone backup can consume a lot of data.
Step 2
Tap on the "Settings" menu item. Select "iCloud" and then "Storage & Backup."
Step 3
Tap on the button that says "Back Up Now" to cause the iPhone to back up its settings to iCloud, which may take several minutes to an hour or more.
Resetting the Phone
Step 1
Tap on the "Settings" menu and then tap on "General."
Step 2
Scroll to the bottom of the menu and tap "Reset."
Step 3
Tap the button that says "Erase All Content and Settings." The iPhone will ask you to confirm this choice. Press the button marked "Erase Phone" to restore your phone to its factory settings.
Restoring From a Backup
Step 1
Start up your iPhone. On a freshly restored iPhone, you are prompted to use the Setup Assistant. Do this in a place where the iPhone is connected to a Wi-Fi signal. This can consume a lot of data.
Step 2
Select "Restore from iCloud Backup."
Step 3
Enter your iCloud username and password information. Your iPhone will restart and begin downloading your backup from iCloud. You may be asked to choose from up to three backups on iCloud, sorted by date.
Hope this helps

Is there any way I can restore it without deleting my pictures and contacts?
