    Default Getting a new iPhone

    Hey guys. New here, i'm after a little advice.

    I have a jailbroken and unlocked iPhone 3G on 4.2.1 with baseband 06.15.00 and am just doing a bit of reseach to find out what I need to do when I upgrade my phone in October to an iPhone 4 (or 4GS/5 whatever it's gonna be).

    I can sync with iTunes no problem without it deleting my apps and can use the iPhone like its not jailbroken.

    When I get the new phone, is it simply a case of connecting the current iPhone 3G and backing it up (which it does automatically when I sync) and then restoring the back up to the new iPhone 4?

    Thanks in advance

    Phil

    I take it I would have to re-download all the apps I wanted. Or as they are all stored in iTunes, would they all reinstall when I synced the new phone?

    Do I jailbreak the new phone before or after I backup restore?

    No worries, your new. Just move on to your other questions.

    Yes, you can sync your apps downloaded from Apple store after you have signed in.
