Hey just a quick question. Im selling my 16GB 3GS iPhone and having done a secure wipe by 'erase all content and data' it only took a few seconds. When i had my 1st gen Touch it took over an hour. After reading up on this its because as opposed to rewriting over the files on the older models, it actually removes the encryption key to access these files.
I am therefore assuming these files are still located on the iPhone but no longer accessible. Now after further searching its claimed that someone could quite easily jailbreak my phone and access the old logs containing my un-zeroed data. I wonder if anyone could confirm this and also if this is true would i be better off writing over the memory with video files to clear it?
Thanks in advance
