Yes. Either with iTunes or you can let it back up to iCloud.

When I last tried to install it, it didn't work?

Which update? iOS5? Yes, it's working. I installed it over a week ago, as did many others.

How did it "not work" for you? What have you tried?

to 'jailbreak' using Sn0wbreeze 2.8b8 on the IOS5, do I have to update to IOS5 through itunes first?

I've read the guide how to do it, and downloaded the 'restoreOS5.psw' which is 668MB. but not sure whether the phone has to already have IOS5 on it, or it does it with the downloaded one I have.


You normally update first using iTunes when Jailbreaking, unless the phone is already up to date.

I've not used Sn0wbreeze myself, though, but this says the device needs to be on iOS5 first before you Jailbreak: http://www.redmondpie.com/jailbreak-...wbreeze-2.8b8/

There are also tutorials here for other JB methods:

That's where I was reading, and it was this part that sounds a bit wrong.
it makes it sound like that's the IOS5 that you'll be putting on and that's where to get it.

You’ll need:
  1. A supported device running iOS 5, which you can download for your iOS device from here.
do Apple actually do a seperate download so you don't have to download through itunes anyway?

Thanks.

Yeah, you can download directly from Apple. The links there are all Apple.

The device itself needs iOS5 installed before Jailbreaking, plus you also need a copy of the firmware anyway for the actual Jailbreak.

Does location services cost?

So can I do the itunes 'shift + restore' thing first to install that IOS5 on the phone, and then run the process with sn0wbreeze after?

It uses GPS and signal towers, so it shouldn't do.

Yup. Install iOS5 first, then do whatever sn0wbreeze says to Jailbreak it.

No.

Bluetooth on the iPhone is restricted to things such as headsets and keyboards only - no file transfer.
