    Tried this for a friend on an iphone 4 that is on the H2O wireless service and it removed the messaging, contact and phone app completely. Had to run a recovery to factory default and then restore his backup. He would like to be jailbroken for apps and mms usage and can not find any info on why these apps got removed. Is there something special that is required for iphone 4 on H2O?? and it is a 4 NOT 4S. Any help would be appreciated.
