What data is restored when you restore the iOS

I want to restore the iOS to my iphone and at the end of the process I want to restore my backed up data.  I previously had an iPhone 3GS, 3G and 2G.  In the past when I ever restored the iOS or got a new phone and restored my backed up data lots of stuff was missing so I'm trying to be cautious this time.  Can you tell me if the following info is restored from your backed up data after an iOS restore.
Game data like game saves
text messages
Apps there were previously installed
App grouping if you put applications into sub folder groups
ring tones assigned to contacts
text tones assigned to contacts
If there is someplace that describes exactly what gets restored please let me know.  I've gone through the user manual and searched but can't find anything.  Specifically I recall losing all game data all grouped apps and all installed apps when I did a restore in the past.
Thanks!

It states the following:
App Store Application data (except the Application itself, its tmp and Caches folder)
I think the problem is that after an iOS restore the applications are not there so the data for the applications can't be restored.
So you go and pick all your applications and install them and during the install/sync it overwrites your backup with a new one.
Now that you have the apps back to restore the data the backup is gone
Does that make sense because I have never had my game data restored.

    Hi,
    When you do the inter company stock transfer system generates two entries in two companies by debiting the company receiving the stocks and crediting the receiving company. However the entries are balanced in the respective company codes by passing a balancing entry to the inter company clearing accounts maintained under OBYA.
    Besides material documents are also created.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can only locate your device when it is logged into iCloud and 'Find My Phone' is enabled, additionally the device will need to be switched on and connected to a wifi or cellular network.
    Unfortunately, you cannot activate iCloud or 'Find My Phone' remotely.
    If the device is wiped by you or another, you may not be able to locate the device (although some have reported they can)

    What does the following mean -the certificate for this server is invalid?

    Hi, Knaresborough. 
    I would recommend checking the date and time on the computer side as this can be the cause of the issue if not set correctly.  However, here are some helpful troubleshooting articles if the issue persists.

  • What does it mean when you see the battery symbol with red and black and an "lightening" symbol below it

    Why doesn't the battery on my new iPhone 4s last very long?  I charged it yesterday late afternoon.  Did not use it at all and it was completely dead this morning.

    All icons are covered in the User's Guide... might be a good idea to browse through it.
    Also, a simple search of these forums or google will result in a plethora of information regarding battery life.  Help yourself by doing a little research.

  • HT201299 what does it mean when you get this message on the Iphone? "online maps consume data traffic"

    what does it mean when you get this message on the Iphone? "online maps consume data traffic"

    That means that if you use online maps, it will consume data. If you're on WiFi, no worries. If you are on cellular data, then it will eat into your cellular data plan.

    Hey Davin12,
    Yes. The apps are not pre-installed, but rather you are prompted to download them the first time you launch the App Store in iOS 7:
    About Free Apple Apps for iOS 7 compatible devices
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5913
    iPhoto, iMovie, Keynote, Pages, and Numbers are free on the App Store for qualifying iOS 7 compatible devices activated or purchased after September 1, 2013
    The first time you launch the App Store in iOS 7 on your qualifying new or factory refurbished iOS device, you will be offered iMovie, iPhoto, Keynote, Pages, and Numbers for free in addition to other free software from Apple. When you tap Download All and sign in with your Apple ID, the apps will be downloaded to your device and added to your store account. If you tap Not Now when you see the offer, you can go back to each of the apps in the store and download them one at a time for free.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

    Try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. This can take up to 20 seconds to react.

  • What does it mean when you get a "The iTunes library file cannot be saved. There is not enought memory available." ? And what can I do to correct it?

    What does it mean when you get a "The iTunes library file cannot be saved. There is not enought memory available." ? And what can I do to correct it?

    Well, I installed the latest iTunes this AM, works perfectly.  Although for some reason it did lock up after playing a song today.
    Horror stories?  That's a bit overly dramatic.
    No, it isn't.
    The issue you are experiencing is one that has occurred in multiple versions of iTunes, a simple search would have revealed this.
    A simple search was conducted, no one seemed to have an answer.  Do you always adopt such a haughty attitude?  Or was I just lucky.

  • Help! We have a form with more than 200 entries and when I looked at it yesterday it had one! When you download the form to excel they all show up. However, when I added another record today it disappeared. Can you tell me what's happening? I've been usin

    Help! We have a form with more than 200 entries and when I looked at it yesterday it had one! When you download the form to excel they all show up. However, when I added another record today it disappeared. Can you tell me what's happening? I've been using adobe forms for 2 years with mass response feedback and have never had this problem.

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.

    mrredrunner100

    i got my friend to message this person to see if they had the same problem, and the message went through and i think he got a reply, and all of a sudden this has started to work again (calls only) but apparently none of my messages went through that i have sent since the block activated. and they still havent even though there working again, and "apparently" a message was sent to me at 9pm today and it has never arrived. so imessage and text still isnt working, before i go asking this person about this, is this a genuine block or is there a phone problem?
