    Default Need help

    I have two iPhone 4's.
    One of them is jailbroken from jailbreakme.com and the other is on 4.2.1.
    Is there anyway I can use my settings from my jailbroken phone to jailbreak the phone that isn't?
    Thanks for any input.

    What do you mean. You have to jailbreak it separately.

    how can u transfer your fw from one iPhone to the other. Are u talking about restore or about jailbreak

    if u are talking about contacts , photos and others , then yes all you need is log in iTunes and sync with your other iPhone

    Here's my deal,
    I bought two ip4's when they were released.
    Jailbroke both using jailbreakme.com.
    I then broke one of my i4's and it came with 4.2.1.
    Is it possible to reset/restore the phone and possibly place the firmware from my jailbroken phone onto the non jailbroken phone?

    I'm not going to reset my jailbroken phone.
    I just want to get 4.0.1 firmware onto the non jailbroken phone from the jailbroken phone if I can.
