I've waited to use my iP4 till the jailbreak came out. Now that it's out, i wanted to get everything going.

As I had problems the last time i went from my jailbroken 3G to 3GS, i decided to setup my iP4 as a "new phone" then restore everything manually using iphonebackupextractor and SSH as i had to end up doing with my 3GS.

First thing is contacts. The folder is there but i can't seem to replace the contacts file, i tried changing folder/file permissions but when i restart the files i upload get replaced with the default files that were there before.

The Safari, Notes, Calender, and Maps folders are not in /var/root/library/.

Can anyone shed some light on this? Maybe point to the new locations if they have changed.


P.S. If you could suggest a different way of going about restoring my data, i'm all ears. Except the windows address book for my contacts as it creates two entries for every contact that you have more than one telephone number saved for.
