Hi all,
I've recently upgraded from a 3G to a 4S, so decided to send the (jailbroken) 3G to O2 recycle. I therefore did the phone reset - erase all content and settings.
The phone is now stuck on the apple screen during reboot, and every ten minutes or so flicks and then stays on the apple screen. I've tried holding down the home and sleep buttons etc, which turns it off but then it goes back into the loop when I turn it back on.
Having read around on here, it appears that the phone needs to be plugged into the computer whilst various buttons are pressed. However, I'm concerned about doing this as the 4S is now registered with iTunes and I don't want to connect the emptied 3G in case it deletes all my apps etc.
Has anyone had this issue, and is it safe to connect the phone to iTunes to reset it?
