    I can't believe everyone backed up their iphones before upgrading to 4.0 and i didn't. ****... I can't restore it. Isn't there any other way to downgrade without losing all my data?

    so, i want to fully understand this... if you had a jailbroken 3.1.3 phone you can downgrade from os4 back to 3.1.3? and, if you go through the restore process and get back to 3.1.3, what about all phone info like contacts, texts, apps etc...??

    It seems to do everything perfectly but when it gets to updating the iPhone and when the error message shows it shuts the iPhone off and I attempt to open RecBoot and I still click Exit Recovery Mode and it just stays on that? Is there any reason why it just stops dead at this point ?:SThanks !

    It keeps iTunes from showing your phone as being in recovery mode so that you can set it up as a new phone or restore from a pre-iOS4 backup.
