finally considering JB just so I can change "My Maxis" carrier name but am a little confused.
-> What happens to my apps from iTunes Appstore and Cydia after a restore or a firmware upgrade?
-> You apps will be wiped out after every restore and firmware upgrade. Just resync back your iTunes apps to your phone and redownload Cydia apps.
so this means that once I JB even legal apps downloaded from App Store will get wiped out after a firmware upgrade? firmware upgrades on non-JB phones don't suffer this, right?

QUOTE(frozzbyte @ Feb 2 2009, 04:16 PM) If restore or upgrade, the apps from AppStore will always be there when you sync it back. Only 3rd party apps will be deleted and need to re-install everytime you upgrade or restore. In your case, you just need to use Quickpwn to jailbreak. Jailbreaking using quickpwn will not delete your apps from AppStore. Let say after this Apple come out with firmware 2.3 (example) and you already jailbreak and install some 3rd party apps from Cydia, once you upgrade or restore to that firmware, you'll lose the 3rd party apps from Cydia but the apps from AppStore can always be sync back from itunes. Means you have to reinstall every 3rd party apps again after a restore or upgrade and jailbreak the phone. Hope you get this. thanks. i get the part that i can easily restore my apps from itunes. but stuff like high score, etc, will be lost, right?

i know the answer to this question but I still feel the need to ask because it would just make me feel a whole lot better before JB-ing.
should i JB, my unlocked singtel iPhone will remain unlocked should iIwish to go back to official firmware, right? everything will be back to normal, right?
on a side note, how is the *official* unlock done? is it hardware or software? and how does it survive firmware upgrades?
and thanks.
