iTunes cannot read the contents of the iPhone after black ra1n/sn0w jailbreak/unlock

**chris_joe** · 11-05-2009 04:27 AM

Hey guys, I just recently updated my 3g iPhone to 3.1.2, jailbroke it with blackra1n, and unlocked it with blacksn0w. However, when I connect it to my iTunes (9.0.2), it says "iTunes cannot read the contents of the iPhone..." so it forces me to do a restore to go back to factory settings. So I did that, rejailbroke and unlocked and it still failed to be read on itunes. Can anyone help me? Thank you!

Windows 7
iphone 3g
3.1.2
jailbroken with blackra1n
unlocked with blacksn0w
itunes 9.0.2
Tried connecting to 3 different computers already and still can't be read.

Edit-

Fixed! I downloaded terminal from cydia and used this command

rm -r /var/mobile/Media

rebooted my computer and was able to sync to iTunes.

Special thanks to "cerote" for his very generous help!

Found an easier way! just download and install i-funbox i-FunBox | iPhone File Manager plus Hi-Speed Transfer Tool - Also iPad File Manager, iPad Browser or iPad Explorer. Connect your iPhone, Go and find “iTunesDB” using i-funbox and delete it, Open iTunes on your PC\Mac and Walla!!! You’re back to Syncing and no more Messages! Enjoy
