Hi guys
I've just sold my iPhone 4 and I need to clean it so it looks like (from the software point of view) a new iPhone. The problem is I have very little time (it needs to be sent today) and quite a lot of questions. I know there are plenty of tutorials on the Internet but the problem is they usually concern single problems.
I would like to keep as much data as possible. While keeping photos and videos is pretty easy, I'm not sure how I can copy my contacts, notes or even messages. The problem is I am not going to get another iPhone so syncing in iTunes won't do the trick.
Also, I'd like to know, in what order I should clean the phone. I assume that removing jailbreak goes first. Are all tweaks and Cydia files deleted afterwards or do I need to remove them manually? After that I guess I can just remove all the files using 'Reset' in settings?
Finally, will removing all files by a single tap in settings restore iPhone to "connect iTunes" state? I want to erase everything, however I heard that if you remove it wrong, you can be brought to DFU mode (not sure wheter it's the right one) which can be quite tricky for the new user to quit.
Summing up, I'd like to remove all data and at the same time avoiding entering DFU mode, just allowing the buyer to use it right away.
