    Exclamation Iphone 3g 4.2 issue

    Hi, my iphone for a very long time has been asking to restore on itself. The issue started when i had 4.0.2, after downloading it, in less than 24 hours my iphone asks to restore, so i restore. The same issue occur. The next day 4.0.2 didn't even exist on itunes anymore, 4.0 came out. So i tried many solutions from others, still my iphone continuously asks to restore. so i just waited for 4.2 Thinking it would work, guess what? same issue. I jailbreaked it using redsn0w 0.9.6b4, still the same issue.

    If you guys know any idea on how to fix it, please help.
    thank you in advance.

    Let me get this straight. An unjailbroken phone keeps wanting to restore after about a day. Correct?

    If you are getting a popup saying you need to restore then something is seriously wrong with the iphone. Any phone I have seen do this either had a hardware issue or the baseband was corrupt.

    Just restore it and you will be fine. Normally as long as they dont see cydia then they wont give you issues.

    Technically they could find out, but they don't.

    Ya there is always a little trace, even after a restore, but as moon#pie said, they wont go looking that deep.
