Untethered jailbreak for 4.3 out

Well updating my iphone 4 to 4.3.1 killed it and needed a restore. Did this and then asked for a pin number Entered the default for o2 of 0000 and it locked it now needing a PUK code FFS. And this isn't anything to do with jailbreaking just normal Apple updating. ******* winds me right up when it starts giving you this amount of grief.

If you have already jailbroken your phone, and then update it, will you lose all of the stuff you've downloaded from installous even if you jailbreak the latest software straight away? If you do, then can you back it up first and put it back manually?

Pretty sure you will need to add stuff back on as the pwnage system requires a restore on the device. I will probably give it a shot later and report back as I am on 4.1 at present

Backup your phone first, update it and then jailbreak and then do a sync and everything will come back on to it.

I paid for pkgbackup brilliant app from cydia to back up all cydia apps and tweaks, upload your backup to dropbox then restore once jailbroken again.
Saves me hours add repos and downloading tweaks

Ok, thought that was possibly the case. Checked my repositories before JB'ing anyway. Just restored ok, adding "AppSync for 4.0+" from the Hackulo.us repo, and then will synch device to get apps back on, and finally spend 30 mins getting many gig worths of music back onto the device, thankfully I've got a playlist containing everything the iPhone had on it prior to the restore.

The happy legal (ish) point is that you can run things that Apple didn't intend you to: Sharing your 3G connection (although that is now included, at a cost), loading emulators etc..
The illegal reason is that you can run pirated applications.

I like it from a development viewpoint as it allows me to test a few things out, to see if there might be any way for others with jailbroken phones to access things in an app they should not be able to, for example, grab an encrypted file from within an application's folder and copy it elsewhere to access it.
There is also the issue of unlocking a phone to work on any network. Only recently has Apple provided factory unlocked phones, prior to that it was up to the network if they wanted to unlock it for you at end of contract. Unlocking is of advantage if you travel to different countries and wish to use a local SIM card, and thus avoid horrendous data / voice roaming charges.
