I've been very disappointed thus far with Cydia and Installer, and I'm wanting to rejailbreak, as I don't use any apps that I can't get with the App Store. How do I do this? I'm on 2.1 w/ a 3G... I used PwnageTool to jailbreak, too... is it as simple as restoring? I know it's as easy as that with an iPod touch, but... yeah. Thanks!
 
i need help. i restored after i j/b my phone cuz i wasn't happy with the laggyness. now my phone is stuck on the apple and it wont do anything.
 
ok. dumb question after it restores and it says restore from backup or new phone... do i use a back up or as a new phone?

lol you've got to be kidding me...

restore from backup if you want to restore from backup
restore as new phone if you want to restore as a new phone

not that complicated
 
some people just want everything handed to them now days... not just with the iphone but in everyday life too... so crazy, no one can think for themselves.

You can generally restore from backup safely -- the backup doesn't contain anything related to J/B. But then it all depends on what caused your phone to become slow to begin with. If it really was something to do with J/B, you should be fine. If it's still slow after you restore from backup, restore the firmware again and don't restore the backup.
