Jailbreak went well, cydia downloaded well, after clicking on cydia a window came up saying I did not have latest software and needed to upgrade. I did so and when asked to connect to puter I did so. But when I turned on Itunes it made me restore my IPOD touch 3G to factory settings and reloaded IPOD from last backup. I have Itunes 9.0.1.8. Any help would be appreciated. R
Respectfully yours Gilbert Y
Will it work on a 3GS with 3.1 (7C144) version?
