Restoring any Jailbroken i-device

Restoring any Jailbroken i-device:

                            

Why we Need a Restore:

There may be many reasons for restoring a i-device. Either your iPhone/iPod touch having issues and its not working properly or may be you didn't want jailbreak anymore.Restoring put your iPhone/iPod touch back
to its factory settings.

Important thing to note: that make a backup of your i-device before restore as it will remove all your contacts, data, music and videos.

Step-1.

Make sure that you have latest version of iTunes installed on your Windows or Mac.(open iTunes on the top then you select "help" and then select "about iTunes".Here you can found you current version)

Step-2.

Connect you iPhone/iPod to Mac/Windows PC.

Step-3.

When your phone is detected, select it in iTunes under the list of devices. If your iPhone is not responsive and iTunes does not detect it we must put your phone in DFU mode. While it is connected, simply hold down the home and power button together for about 10 seconds, then release the power button while continuing to hold the home button. A few seconds later iTunes should detect your iPhone

Step-4.

Select the "Summary" tab.

Step 5.

Select the "Restore" option.

Step 6.

You will now be prompted with a screen that asks if you wish to back up your iPhone before restoring. *If you are jailbroken, it is my personal opinion never to use a backup when restoring. Some may disagree, but in the end it is up to you.

Step 7.

Select the Restore option when iTunes prompts you.

Step 8.

Once the restore process has completed your iPhone will restart and the Apple logo will appear while booting up.

Step 9.

After the restore is complete and your iPhone restarts you will see the "Connect to Activate" screen. You must continue to keep your iPhone connected to complete activation.

 Step 10.

The final step is to restore your iPhone or iPod touch from a previous backup or to set your iPhone up as new. Once that is complete iTunes should detect your iPhone and you are good to go.
