    Default How do I completely back up my iphone 3g

    i have an iphone 3g 16gb running ios 4.1 with baseband 6.15 i was wondering if someone could either send me a link to a tutorial or post one here on how to completely back up an iphone

    the things i want to back up are

    removed
    cydia apps
    winterboard themes

    with removed ive tried to back up the apps with itunes but i can never get them to go on there ive tried everything on the removed faq page and i couldnt get them to sync.

    the cydia apps ive read online but everything seems to professional i wanted some pics or video discriptions but couldnt find much

    if someone could just point me in the right direction or just simply tell me what i need to do that would be highly appreciative since ive done a lot of googleing on this and still cant find anything on this maybe someone at modmyi could help

    thx in advance

    Sorry there isn't a way to back up anything that you have downloaded from Cydia, and we cannot discuss ********** apps. Themes you can save if you SSH into your iDevice and go into "Library/Themes" and just save your themes onto your computer.

    The last guys an idiot, go get AppBackup and AptBackup or PkgBackup from cydia

    AppBackup backs up your game saves

    AptBackup or PkgBackup backs up your cydia install files

    PkgBackup costs money but might be necessary if you are changing iPhones as it backs it up as a contact

    All of these programs get backedup when you sync with iTunes

    The one App is a Pirate App

    Cydia is not and yes AptBackup can back up a list of installed Cydia apps but during a restore you must JB and go back to cydia and re DL again anyway, the apps are not backed up, (Watch who you call an idiot)

    So there is no complete solution I have ever seen like a non jailbroken phone on itunes Back up, where you can restore and then sync your apps back on from your computer without the app store.

    No, most Cydia apps have emailed you the codes, after that CYdia records your device signature and you should be able to DL them again for free, in the case this does not work then you use the email to contact Saurik and I think he will help.
