Add Note Edit Step 1 — Reverse-Jailbreak Your iPhone or iPod Touch Without a Restore  ¶ 

  • First go to Cydia and delete all of the packages you downloaded from Cydia.

  • Then go to your packages on Cydia and find "Cydia installer" and tap on it and click "Remove" in the right-hand corner. Don't forget to do the forced removal; it isn't dangerous.

  • Then go into your settings app and click "General" then scroll to the bottom of the page and click "Reset" and click "Reset all settings".

  • Finally plug your iPhone into iTunes and it will sync instead of restore.
