So I was wanting to undo my jailbroken 3GS...my question is: can I back all my contacts, photos, text messages, etc. or can I only start completely over??

I heard that if you uninstall every app that you've installed from cydia or rock, then sync with iTunes... Restore the phone, and when it asks to restore from backup or setup as new phone, choose the latest backup.

HOWEVER: What about repositories and whatnot? And should I uninstall Cydia and Rock as well?

Thank you in advance,
Veetus

Update: And I actually was able to do it, all my data (except for apps, which is fine I guess) was transferred over..however my phone says "A T & T" as apposed to "AT&T". So I was thinking, in order to get that back to normal, could I possibly restore my iPhone as new and then use the backup function again to maybe fix this problem?

yes that might work. you can always backup your phone, restore as new, and then restore from a backup or set up as new. however, if your backup is correupted your restore will be also.
