Hello,

I understand the easiest way to fix my problem is to go into DFU mode and restore my iPhone. However, I do not have any backups and don't want to lose my data sad.gif I tried searching and found a method with iRecovery - which unfortunately doesn't work with my OS - Windows 7 64-bit. Any other methods out there?

Thanks.

search for RecovBoot

works with Win7 64-bit

guys, need some help

if i do a "restore to new phone" - it says it will also automatically update the firmware to the latest. is this correct? anyway to NOT update the firmware?

gonna sell off my phone and need to wipe out everything. any alternative?

thanks in advance

go to Settings > General > Reset

choose Erase All Content and Settings

it will erase all your iphone contents

just like restoring to a new phone

This is very wrong man. Dont ever press that button. Not all users can loop it successfully. Most of them will stucked @ apple logo after pressing that. An ideal way is just to restore via iTunes. Provided its an unlocked set.

i've tried countless times on un-JB unit, works like a charm

same like those offline restore, & when u connect to iTunes after the "erase data and setting"

itunes will ask u to name the iphone, so its kinda like those firmware restore w/out itunes

for JB units, yup, will not work, been there, done that laugh.gif

I know Jailbreak discussion is not allowed, pardon me this question please, I have a 3.1.2 jailbroken 3GS, if I wanna de-jailbreak it and upgrade to OS4.1, how do I do it? Because if I update directly, I'd brick my phone right?

download the firmware

update ur phone offline, i mean in DFU mode

but 1st, ur iphone is from which country set? local? US?
