    I've been jailbreaking since iphone 3g too, but I've always just clicked update and let itunes download/install the updates first, then jailbreak afterwards. I thought maybe there was some added benefit to shift+click restore vs just a regular itunes update.The way I've always done it, all of my apps remain except for cydia which gets put back after the jailbreak and all of my settings remained.

    Many people are having the same issue with Cydia. The Amazon/Cydia store is having problems from what I've been able to track down. They are working on it.

    This is unbelievable, uploading ramdisk just wont complete. At this stage my phone is utterly useless as itunes wont even pick it up for me to do a reset. Urgent help needed!

    Gyakuzuki, if you are having problems with the ram disk? Close redsn0w, right click the program, troubleshoot compatibility, then troubleshoot program and run with earlier version of windows. I used xp service pack 2. It worked fine after.

    I have an iPhone 4 and it is not jailbroken. It is already on 4.3.1. Must I still manually update via iTunes with the ipsw file? Or can I skip directly to the redsn0w step?

    Does not work on my 3GS (week 26) - tried 5 times and just says unexpected error on reboot. My phone is still alive though with vanilla iOS4.3.2 so not a deadend. Please patch!!! Thanks guys.

    My computer freezes at the updating ram disk screen every time.... I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the IPSW and redsn0w files, but it still does the same thing, I've even let it sit for 30 minutes to make sure it wasnt just taking its time... anyone else having this problem or know how to get around it? Im running 4.3.2 on an iPhone 4. Thank you for any help

    Everything went as instructed but after a week of use safari won't be able to start. It shows a white safari starting screen for a few seconds and then crashes. There are plenty of blogs issuing safari crashes but they all seem to be related to tethered jailbreak, not untethered like in this.
