Hey guys quick question, I am currently jailbroken on 7.1.1 on a 5S and I now wish to update and remove the jailbreak. How do I go about doing this? I've read that you can't just update over the air but some people say that you can just simply update on iTunes and it removes the jailbreak. How should I do this? Thanks

I highly recommend you backup your iPhone to your computer before going about doing anything. Then just restore your iPhone on your computer, then sync with the backup you just made.

Hope this helps

If I back it up and sync with the backup later, Won't it just load Cydia again? Swear I've done that before

When you restore from an iCloud backup, how long does it take?

Hey. Just back up any important data, restore your phone (this will update you to the latest iOS available), and then recover anything you need from the backup.

Basically, restoring removes the jailbreak.

Most likely going to do this but it's going to take a while due to all the music I have on my phone :/

You can use iFunBox to quickly export music.

Back up to iTunes > Update & restore > jailbreak using Pangu > Sync back to iTunes to get your data back > enjoy
