I going to get a new 3gs iphone, since my current display having problem.

Is there a way to clone the entire iphone and transfer to the new iphone.

My iphone is jailbroken with Spirit JB. Firmware 3.1.2. Installed programs from Installous and cydia.

Any way to clone the iphone so there is no need to reinstall them again?


Please anyone advise, i am sure alot of people wanted to know this too.

There are system files stored in and about the iPhone are are specific to -- among other things the devices IMEI (more exist but can't remember). This make a perfect clone/restore impossible. Using Unix/Mac/iPhone rsync one could back up everything, including file permissions, ownerships, etc. This could then be placed on a different phone but it won't work. No-one really knows which files must be modified because of these unique characteristics.

Even with the same phone ... no one that I'm aware of has used this process successfully for a complete restore.

People use this procedure (rsync) all the time on computers, it'll never happen on an iDevice. Give all your thanks to Apple. The restrictions are artificially imposed.

dcyk6000,

Do not mention pirate applications on this forum, we do not support or condone piracy here. A lot of the developers who write the applications you're too cheap to pay for and are stealing are the same people reading your posts. Keep that in mind when you're posting, asking for assistance from the same people you're stealing from.

This is your only warning. I recommend, if you haven't already, that you review the hackint0sh forum rules.
