    Being an i can be a lot of pressure. you have to live right up to the small point.

    You can. One of 2 ways. I suggest "sudo rm -f /" that's the only way to know you get it all. Or you can use dkpg your call. ( dpkg --help if you domt know how to use it) It's really not advised to remove cydia you could hide it instead. Now if you try my way without searching you will for sure end up with no cydia installed and a fresh copy of 4.3.3.

    just because you delete cydia doesnt mean its not jailbroken. it still leaves the root open for access. clean restore is the only way.

    mm the best way is a clean Restore, so there won't be any jb data.

    Default well...

    You can't delete all the jb data without a restore, as far as I know. however, you can hide cydia and other jb apps using poof, but apple can still easily detect these. You can delete cydia by running apt-get remove cydia in terminal, but it still doesn't delete jb data. So you have to restore if they're gonna be looking at the filesystem, but as far as visual effects, you can either use Poof or delete cydia.

    You could use infini-dock/board/folders and hide it past the end of that, but that's easily discoverable.

    New to jailbreaking? Have a look at my Redsn0w Guide
