Here are the steps that I'm taking to upgrade the firmware on my iPhone.  In this case, I'm going from 3.0.1 jailbroken to 3.1.2 jailbroken.  I'm hoping I can do a backup/restore of the settings but I'll need to reinstall apps and cydia applications.  From the cydia perspective, it's not always a good idea to use apt-backup to backup/restore your apps depending on the version but I'm going to try it in this case since it is not a major firmware version update.

- Update iTunes to most current version
- Run apt-backup and back up existing app list
- Screenshot (home-sleep) anything desired and upload pictures to PC
- Perform a sync (backup) to iTunes
- Upload files from 'download' directory on iPhone (music, videos, etc.)
- Check Cydia for manually added repos
- Perform a restore of the non-jailbroken current version of the firmware (3.0.1 -> 3.0.1)
- ** Note: it may be a good idea to take a breather here - there have been some suggestions that the firmware updates can overheat the wifi chip.  It may be that performing back to back updates can make that worse.
- Perform the upgrade to the new firmware (3.1.2)
- Restore the settings
- Jailbreak the new firmware and install Cydia
- Install apt-backup from Cydia and restore apps

I did not see any quick touch update so. Only thing not working like I said is the tv button above the keyboard, but all the other stuff including fingerprint reader, and enrollments are working. The tv tuner does however launch via the remote which is funny, but I think there is a quick launch app that allows you to map the buttons so it may be easy to fix.

Thank you!!!! I can confirm if you will make clean install win 7 like this then all will work iven treble/Bass. Only things not work for me is also TV button. And I cant play Bluray, I can play DVD-s but if I but in bluray Quick Play crashes.
Thanks again and Eclypse3D do you have Bluray rom, is the playback ok vith Quick Play ?

Thanks
