Did this happen with anyone else or am I just lucky? I accidentally updated to iOS 6 yesterday and lost my jailbreak. That's the bad news. Here is the good, and strange news, when I went to restore my ipad, it let me restore from my last saved backup. Which was before I lost my jailbreak. When I reinstalled some of my apps, even after buying a couple that I was using as cracked, all my information was saved. What I'm saying is even any IAP cracks that I used before were still working for some reason and I didn't have to IAP again, even though I did have to buy the physical app. Did this happen for anyone else???
Got a tip for us?

Wait. You bought a physical app? I.. don't get it.
And yeah, I don't think it deletes your cracked apps, just don't delete them from your iPad or I don't think you'll be able to get them back.

To answer Iparis: For example I went to the itunes store and bought "The Walking Dead: The Game" because I really liked it and was using a cracked app before. However, since I lost my jailbreak none of my cracked apps will load so I had to buy it from the itunes app store. HOWEVER, after I bought the game, all in app purchases I had made while my iPad was jailbroken, were still there. I thought I was going to have to buy the other episodes again, but they were still there along with my saves. All I had to do was reinstall them.

And just to add on, I had been using IAP cracker to get my in app purchases, but obviously that is gone since I lost my jailbreak and I'm now stuck on IOS 6 like everyone else.
