Guys, 1 question, does Photos are backup in iTunes? I vaguely remember my old iPhone 3G is able to restore all photos from the backup last time, anyone can tell me?

Oh contacts and messages too.

Downloaded the firmware and upgrade since 6am this morning and iTunes still showing "Verifying iPhone restore with Apple..." and phone showing USB connect to iTunes.  Almost 5 hours!! My unit is 3GS.

Should I unplug and run restore again ? Is my 4.3.5 already wiped off from the phone ? Will it brick ?

Can someone help/advise ? Thanks.

Use the shift-restore method with ipsw. iTunes update gives problem sometime, very annoying. Just unplug it, if it haven't starts the restore process, its a good chance 4.3.5 still there, if not just enter dfu mode and restore. very low chance iphone will be bricked, thats the wonder of it.

Finally finish updating to ios5 drool.gif

question people. what's the difference of
restore (shift+restore) > restore phone data from back up
with
clicking update button from itunes?

does restore (shift+restore) > restore phone data from back up somehow 'format' the phone?
*
Its the same thing. Except that itunes update might run into some problems sometimes. My old iphone 3g is unable to start the camera when for some reason updated using itunes.

guys, all my APPs on my ip4 have gone missing after I had upgraded. However, they are still in my iTunes. How can I restore them back?


Restore from backup. But if u press the set up as new phone, u'll have to manually sync back again

Testing with multiplexer just now. Encountered some bugs with iMessage. The first message composed ALWAYS has to be sent as a normal text before iMessage kicks in.

I need select as restore from backup. I have got my contacts, photos, messages and mails in tact. Just that all my APPs are not there. So no choice but to sync manually back one-by-one?
*
Hmm, weird, mine did sync back all. Check your itunes, maybe its syncing now, or try reconnecting again.

Hmm.. How come previously heard my fren say need to reverse jailbreak to factory setting b4 update ios version, otherwise iphone will hang. Whats that all about?

Nope, thats for restoring through phone. It will hang if u are on a jailbroken phone. Restoring through itunes would not face any problem.
