Default If I Reset the iPhone, What Happends I Lose What Data?

My iPhone doesnt charge via the wall outlet, as i read in another post, the only thing u can do is to reset your iPhone.....and if u do this all your settings videos music....etc...will be deleted right?

Theres a difference between reset and restore. If you restore you will be setting your iPhone back to the way it got right out of the box. Reset will not wipe out your data.

A restore wont either if you decide to reload your old backup.

RESET does nothing but RESET your iphone. RESTORE whipes it back to the state it was when you bought it.

I you do a reset from the General Settings menu it will not wipe out data, but it will erase seeting such as weather, stock, clock, and any wifi log-on settings. How do I know this, I just did it.

exactly reset does not wipe anything out dont worry. if you had an ipod before its the same as when you reset your ipod by holding the center and play buttons. doing a reset just kinda clears some stress off the iphone and is the solution to several problems ive had and many others thats what its for.
edit the reset im talking about is the one you get by holding the sleep/wake button andh ome for about 8 seconds

To reset your iphone hold your sleep and home button down for 10 seconds.there will be NO DATA LOST.To restore your iphone to the same thing for 25 seconds this will clear all data and make the phone factory fresh.

thanks!
