Retoring a jailbroken 3GS

[SimpleSi]

Just found out daughter has jailbroken her 3GS.

I'm assuming if we tried to claim on the insurance and it went off to be repaired/replaced they'd decline to do so?

Anyone had any experience/know of one of the situation before I restore it back to square one!

(I'm think no point in spending £5/month on insuring it!)

Just plug it back into itunes It should ask to apply an update where it will install that update taking off the jailbreak (or so i understand).

To be fair it might leave some signs on there you be surprised how much is left on a iphone after just doing an update like that (you can get about 90% of data back even after doing a wipe of the iphone). To be totally safe do a restore to factory and restore etc (even then might still leave something).

But you can claim that a friend did it and then when researched it found not a good idea so restored it etc.

p.s

If you do a factory restore etc then make sure you set it up as a new phone and not restore back up from itunes (as that would for sure copy some signs of the jailbreak back onto iphone).
