Re jailbreak my iPod?

Hello Scratchers, I just wanted to ask if I can re jailbreak my iPod WITHOUT loosing my Cydia data.
I used sn0wbreeze, and now I want greenpois0n, because of custom boot logos. So, is this possible without loosing data?

Re: Re jailbreak my iPod?

I've never heard of jailbreaking an already jailbroken iPod. IF you can jailbreak on top of your sn0wbreeze jailbreak, you shouldn't lose anything, but I'd be careful. If you have to reset the iPod first to get rid of the original jailbreak, then you will lose your Cydia data.

If you go the reset route, I recommend AptBackup, which will back up all your apps and then restore then through Cydia should you ever need to. Just download the application, back up your apps with it, snyc your iPod, and then go through with the reset. Once you've done that, you should be able to re-snyc, jailbreak, download AptBackup again, and restore all your applications and tweaks. (Note that this won't back up your settings.

Get AppBackup, backup App Store data, put the backups on your computer, and then restore. Rejailbreak with greenpois0n rc6.1, install app store apps, then redownload appbackup, put the backups on the iPod to the same location, and restore the backups! More info in the application.
Also do what Harakou said.

So you want to lose all your app data? It's your device.
