[QUOTE="Kash, post: 769271, member: 23444"] If you go back to read that thread, it just proves my point. It's only when you unlock the phone that leaves a trace of some change made (the baseband being the most prominent, which isn't reverted during a restore). A simple jailbreak leaves no noticeable trace following a restore. It's true that if you dig around fervently enough, you'll eventually find some trace, but this isn't something Apple techs do, nor do they probably have the software available on hand to do such a search (it essentially requires one to dig around in the file system of the iPhone). Plus, Apple techs aren't exactly reliable sources of information regarding this issue. They're going to make it seem as though they know what they're looking for when in reality they have no clue or simply don't want to admit the fact that they are unable to tell the difference between a stock iPhone and a restored iPhone that was once jailbroken. Then there's the fact that he was being really evasive in that thread regarding the source of his information, and there's no indication that the picture he posted is from a phone that had its jailbreak wiped, could just be that he plugged in a jailbroken iPhone and got those results. Seems to me that someone is trying to hide the fact that they don't really know anything. [/QUOTE]
