A couple of months ago I used Spirit to jailbreak my 3GS that has 3.1.3 so that I could use MyWi with my ipad. In the last couple weeks I have had more dropped calls and those that just don't go through. I have read other threads about this, but yesterday my situation changed from what I have read. A few minutes after listening to a podcast on my iphone, the phone shut off and nothing would get it to turn on. About ten minutes later, the Apple logo appeared but stayed on the screen and a soft and hard reset had no effect. About fifteen minutes after that started, I checked the phone and everything had returned to normal.
This morning after charging my iphone, I noticed that it had started in "safe mode" and showed a message that Winterboard had not been able to start. I have not installed Winterboard so this message was a surprise.
I guess it is time to restore. Just to make sure that I return the phone to its virgin state, I should restore the iphone as a "new" phone and then restore to the backup I made yesterday to recover my programs, files, contacts, music, podcasts and videos. I should lose nothing that I have now but the jailbreak? I will keep the iphone in this state for my wife who gets the phone when my iphone 4 arrives on Thursday.
Am I correct in my assumptions? I will upgrade that phone to os4 so my wife has the new features but I don't want her to have to deal with the problems that I am having now. My other option is just to upgrade to os4 on Monday, but fear that this will not get rid of the issues I have with the phone in its jailbroken state.
Ideas and advice? Thanks in advance!
