Well, I believe that it's always worked for him. And that's enough for me to try restoring my backup next time I update. Everything he's presented makes perfect sense. I've just always restored as new because it used to be sound advice and frankly it's not a big deal to me. I've always been a "fresh install" kind of person, but it's not something worth being religious about.

But I want to see for myself whether or not the current states of jailbroken apps are restored with the backup.

Well, I'm finally done with my little experiment, and Mike...

You appear to be right - damn it.

Please accept my sincerest apologies for ever having doubted you.

God, I hate this.

Cool, glad it worked.
I'll do this next time I restore.

Thanks for checking it out, Nap. A lot of people would have backed away from actually testing it.

I would like to point out though that I was merely showing how it actually works and that it works for me.

This doesn't mean I am asserting that it is right for everyone. In particular, if you are a big mod fan, and theme everything, some of that stuff could come back when you don't want it to. Your only option at that point is to restore as new.

And I should point out that I am lazy. If there is a faster way of doing something, that is "good enough," I'm a gonna take it.

Good point. I usually disable all themes right before restoring anyway. Now I'll just be sure to do a backup right after disabling them all.
