It is generally recommended to restore your device from a backup after you have successfully completed the jailbreak process. Performing the jailbreak on a clean device reduces the likelihood of encountering errors or data conflicts during the exploit process. Once the jailbreak is confirmed to be working correctly, you can then restore your personal data and settings from your iTunes or iCloud backup.
