    Lightbulb complete backups?

    I read that you can save everything on your iPhone by just saving "library" folder at /private/var/mobile/library
    Then just copy contents to restored iPhone.

    Has anyone tried this? Does it sound like it would work?
    If it does then this would be awesome 

    That doesnt save everything...just your apps.

    And IMO "cut and paste" installations are never good.

    If you are jailbroken, I recommend Chronus for app backups and iDrive Lite for contacts backup.

    Hope this helps.

    I was under the assumption that iDrive Lite was for Mac, she has a PC.
    Is there an app like this for PC?

    iDrive Lite is an iPhone app. It does everything from your phone. No PC required.
