My friend has an iPhone 4 that he never set up his own account for. When he got it, he just plugged it into his roommate's computer to get all of her music and contacts, using her iTunes account (she also has an iPHone 4). He has also purchased games.
Now it won't let him sync, because apparently only one phone is allowed now or something (from what he says, he gets an error, I have no idea how accurate that is). So he wants to reset his phone and make his own iTunes account.
So now the question... He wants to know if there's a way to extract his game save files (maybe iFile?) and save them. He doesn't care about re-purchasing the games on his own account, but he just doesn't want to lose the saves. I have no idea, so I told him I'd check here. I told him about jailbreaking, and this was the only thing he wanted, haha.
Any ideas on if that's even possible? I know there are probably a bunch of different save methods, ranging from iCloud to SQL databases, so I'm guessing there's no "standard" way and it would vary by each game. Just curious if anyone has tried before.
Thanks.
