Partially jailbroken iPhone?

A couple days ago, I had a friend help me do a semi-tethered jailbreak using Saigon and the Cydia Impactor tool. Worked fine, and I was able to use Cydia. However, I added a possibly malicious source to Cydia and tried to download AppCake--after the installation process, the screen went dark (still giving off light), rebooted, and most of my Apple applications were missing. Stuff like the phone app, Safari, settings… I restarted my phone and the apps came back, including Cydia, Saigon, and the other jailbreak apps I had on my phone. And then there was AppCake.

When I tried clicking on the apps, they all crashed immediately. Even Saigon, so I have no idea whether I'm jailbroken or not. Additionally, part of the Anemone theme I put on my phone is still showing. The firmware is on iOS 10.2.1, so the cell service signal is normally five circles. However, they are now bars, like you would find on more recent iOS versions. But the firmware is still the same version. The battery indicator is also screwed up. Aside from those issues, my phone works perfectly fine, but I would like to return to using Saigon and Cydia without fear that it will brick or ruin my iPhone SE. Please help, thanks.

Is it possible to connect two different bluetooth headphones to one device?

My wife and I are taking a motorcycle trip and would like to listen to the same music using bluetooth earbuds. I've heard of something called a bluetooth splitter, but wasn't sure if it would work for this application. We're hoping to use bluetooth ear buds to listen to the same iphone while traveling.

Actual bugs in laptops?

A couple days ago I saw a bug enter my laptop through the hole where you plug chargers to charge your typical iPhone(forgot what it's called) and ever since then I've been trying to unscrew my laptop screws but some of them have been screwed on and off so much they became round. Is there a way to clean or force bugs out of my laptop without having to unscrew anything?

How do you file a complaint with Apple?

They have my iPhone in repair and tell me that warranty will not cover repair because because the phone has accidental damage, they give no explanation only photos of scuff marks that I could wipe off with a mild polish. I no there's possibly one little mark that would take a little time to get out and don't know how it got there but it was no accident, it is all natural we're and tears
Apple has had me up for a couple of days now and it's all because of there stupid charging design that has been the corporate for several Apple products to take a dump on me…
Added (1). Apple wants $340+ for repair and say they will send me new phone? Suppose they would send me new used phone? Probably with no warranty sense my warranty just expired about the same time it was sent in for repairs.
Added (2). I guess I forgot to mention that I sent it in because the cable connection would not go into the charging port and just before that the phone got so hot I thought it would burn a hole in my pocket.
Added (3). I haven't had an Apple product that didn't have issues with there charging port sense they come out with the 9 pin design.

New to jailbreak. Just need some advice or guidance?

I have never tried to jailbreak my iPhone. I have always wanted to. But with so many options I'm kind of in the dark as to where to even begin. Which one is the safest and least likely to get a virus. I was hoping someone that had done it could gifemesomeadiveandpiibtmeinthe right directions. I have researched it online but I wanted to speak to someone that has done it that I could ask questions and maybe walk me through it. I know I will. Have to wait until the jailbreak for iOS 11.4 comes out. Like I said I'm new to all this and would appreciate some advice. Please only serious answers.

IGive up with this iTunes?

I've been trying to figure this out and i'm going crazy and need help. My itunes on my new computer is for some reason super outdated and doesn't match my current iphone AT ALL. It has some, but not even close to all of my music. I have so much more music on my iphone that I have accumulated over the last decade. So I bought a new CD and ripped it into my itunes by now it won't let me move it to my iphone. If I sync my phone to my itunes the only available options will wipe my phone and match it to my current itunes (which as I mentioned doesn't have a ton of the music found on my iphone). Help please!

How come everyone thinks that I can go to jail for leaving a voicemail with shooting sounds on my therapists phone?

So I'm mad at my therapist for not letting me call her when I need to talk to her and so I pranked called her. I found out that she blocked my number so I decided to leave her a voicemail with shooting sounds. I made sure that it would go through to her so I used a phone texting app on my iPhone called text now to call her. The app gave me a phony number so I can use it to prank call people without them knowing that it is me. I changed my phone number after I left her the voicemails. Everyone thinks that I'm going to jail now because of these things that I did. They think that it is illegal to leave shooting sounds as a voicemail. If my therapist actually was nice to me then I wouldn't have done this. I'm upset because my friend steve won't take me to places anymore to film. I want to go to freaking atlanta to film elevators and he won't take me. He thinks that his stupid structural engineering job is more important than having fun. I demand someone to take me. I was calling her to talk to her about this and she got mad and said that I was crossing boundaries. If she didn't want me to call then she shouldn't have gave me her number. My good old therapist actually let me call her when I was upset and she left and so I'm stuck with sally. I'm leaving sally to find someone better who would let me call her whenever I need to talk. I don't get what is so wrong about calling your therapist to talk about what's upsetting you.
Added (1). How can you go to jail for leaving shooting voicemails? How come people claim it is crossing boundaries to call her to talk about what is upsetting me?
Added (2). I'm very upset as my old therapist letted me do this and it really helped me a lot. It sucks that she had to move away. Everyone claims that everyone is moving on and moving out of the city with their lives. Andy criticized and said your friend steve is making something of himself by moving out and getting his own place while your just too lazy to even get a job. He said to me, get your own freaking license if you want to film elevators. Why does everyone criticizes me for everything?

How do I un-backup my iPhone 7?

Last night I accidentally deleted a voice memo. In an attempt to get it back, I reset my iPhone 7 to factory settings and tried to restore the backup. The only problem is that I didn't realize that I hadn't backed it up since April 16th(it's now June 17th), so I lost some of my memos and messages. Although I still have my contacts and pictures. I don't, however, have iCloud or iTunes backup. Help Please!
