Ok sold the 2G last night on ebay to fund buying a 3GS, looking forward to getting my hands on one.

Obviously i dont want any of my info left on the phone. The phone is sold as being unlocked and jailbroken running 3.0, i have currently done this using redSn0W.

Should i just restore using the tutorial on iclarify for RedSn0w? Will this wipe eveyrthing? Also when it come to the screen:
Do you want to restore Damien Oxlee's iphone or new phone, do i just ignore this and then the new owner can do it. In other words if i do will it work fine for the new owner when put into itunes or should i set up as new phone?

Or is this the best way to get rid of everything:
Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings
I will then use RedSn0w
And does this do anything that the above doesnt

Cheers

Also doesnt RedSn0w do the activiating for me?

That way the new owner can put their Sim and away they go????
