    Default If I restore my iPhone, is there anyway to tell it's been jailbroken?

    I need to bring my iPhone into the apple store for repairs, and I don't want them to know that its jailbroken (obviously). I've already restored it, but is there anything else I need to do to make sure its completely unjailbroken? It's a 3G iphone running 2.1, jailbroken using pwnage.

    If they hook it up to their system they can tell. The iphone keeps a log of everything that is done to it.

    Middle of the road answer: the iPhone does keep a log; however, they have no reason to check the log if they don't suspect anything. So don't wear your "I heart jailbreak" t-shirt and you should be fine!

    it's funny, I just saw a file called jailbreak log when I was sshing into my phone. Quickpwns work most likely, but you never know, you never know.
