When you restore, can someone still find out if it was jailbroken? Like an Apple or at&t employee?

I'm considering it, but I wouldn't want something to go wrong, and I have to do a warranty claim, and then it's voided because I jailbroke it.

Thanks a lot!!

Yes, even doing a restore leaves traces on the phone; however, with a fully restored phone I'm not sure how Apple would be able to browse the filesystem.

I just got done researching the SDK update that's coming out real soon. Is there a reason to jailbreak rather than the safer and legal way, doing the SDK update? Also, if anyone knows a lot about SDK, will I be able to mod my background to anything I want like this thread shows? Thanks again guys.

How? my understanding of doing a full restore (ie get it into whatever that mode is called when it just shows the icon to connect to itunes) it erases the whole drive and reinstalls. At that point the only option to get the data would be some data forensics stuff, and even then who knows what will still be readable. I've gone through a jailbreak, restore it, rejailbreak it and any files I had stored on there was gone.

Now if you do a sim unlock, then you're playing with the modem settings and stuff and that can be discovered easily. That's why a firmware update bricked sim unlocked phones because they played with the modem settings. But if you just do a software jailbreak for a phone using a legitimate service provider, I don't see how it would leave any traces.

You can evenm reset the modem settings that you fiddled with to unlock the phone by using "The Virginizer" once you have the i.unlock.no repository in installer. Once you have run that you have to restore the phone and it is completely untraceable. For more info, see http://iphone.unlock.no/
 
couple of questions

1 I'm going to buy a 16GB iPhone soon, so it'll have 1.1.3 and I was wondering, do the themes work on 1.1.3? Heard some apps didn't work, don't know where to find this "works/doesn't work" list.
2 What app do I need for the SMB theme? Only the SMBPrefs thingy or others too?
3 How do you customize the "slide to unlock" thingy

Thanks :)

1. Themes do work but to unlock you will have to downgrade to 1.1.1 and go from there to get a jailbroken 1.1.3 (see www.iphone.unlock.no for what I think is the easiest and simplest guide to do so.)
2. You only need SMBPrefs which can be easily be installed in installer and is found under System.
3.To customize the slide to unlcok icon you need Customize which, again, can be found in installer but this time you will need to find other Image Packages, also found in installer which give you the ability to change virtually every button, switch and icon.

N.B you can't have more than 4 icons in the dock in 1.1.3 so I would stick to 1.1.2 if that is a big deal to you.

Can someone please tell me how to get wallpaper on my Jailbroken 1.1.3 iPhone. There are only about 5 wallpapers in Installer, and after installing, I can't find them in the Wallpaper tab in Settings. I don't know where the wallpaper that I download goes, and I'd like to find out where to get more wallpaper. Also, where can I get these themes that are in this thread?
 
Chalky

Here's a theme I made in cooperation with my gf (suimpreza16 on these boards). Everything was done by hand except for the wallpaper, which I made from this image

And now for the theme...

Not sure where your wallpapers are downloading, but I suggest checking somewhere in /var/root as Installer likes to deposit things here that need to be elsewhere to work. To add any wallpaper you've found online, just drag them into a new album in iPhoto and sync the album to the iPhone.

Hope this helps!
