Definitive 1.1.3 Upgrade and Jailbreak Guide

Also if people already have the 1.1.3 firmware they can configure install.sh so it doesn't have do download it.

Assuming you have already got the jailbreak 1.1.3 files extracted on your iphone but haven't run them yet.

1. On your PC/MAC extract the install.sh from the zip/tar file.

2. Edit the extracted install.sh file with a text editor and comment the wget line i.e. stick a hash (#) at the front so it looks like:
# wget "$RESTORE_IPSW" -O /private/var/restore.zip

3. On your PC/MAC copy the firmware somewhere and rename it "restore.zip"

4. Open a WinSCP session to your iphone.

5. Copy the editted install.sh to the root (/) directory over-writing the one thats there already.

6. Copy the restore.zip file to /private/var/
i.e. so there is a restore.zip file in /private/var/

And continue with the instructions running "sh install.sh"....
 
So if im doing this on an Ipod Touch what do i have to do after step 9?, i mean, i dont think it would ring lol
 
HA!

I just read through those instructions and thats basically my reaction.

HA!

I'll wait a week for real apps.
 
So is there a fix in installer.app or something that will fix the DRM music problem and the ringtone because those are sorta important things.
Thanks
 
on step 22... is terminal supposed to say anything after the step that gives you the percentage (after the sh install.sh) am i just supposed to let it sit from there? or am i doing something wrong?

i got an error... ahhhhh(pic of terminal attached)

Must I do the steps in: Post-jailbreaking - Restoring your phone service in 1.1.3

If I am using an iPod Touch?

Also, I payed for the new Apps, can I use the ones I bought on the hacked 1.1.3? Or must I transfer them over from an iPhone?

Thanks guys! Great guide and a LOT of help!

Just to let everybody know, if your using STEALTHSIM, do NOT upgrade your baseband. Don't upgrade using the regular method with iTunes, Stealthsim won't work when your done.
 
just upgraded from a jailbeaked version of 1.1.2 and it worked a treat. thank you very much.
 
If anyone has modmyifone source on there phone, the dev team has release a one touch app that installs right off of installer. Jailbreaks your phone to 1.1.3. Details can be found on modmyifone.com. Works well and is ideal for anyone thats just want an easy solution

I was about to pull the trigger and run this update on my jailbroken 1.1.2 iphone but then read on the modmyiphone page that there is some issue with contacts. Any idea what that is?
 
my pc keeps screwing up the 1.1.1 restore so I am now trying on my sister's macbook. when I go to select the ispw file, I get 6 files/folders inside the 1.1.1 folder. which one do I select? with windows, I would just select the entire folder but that doesn't appear to be the case w/ mac.

any help, PLEASE!

I had the same problem, go to home. , application support, library, find iTunes and go to iPhone software update and find the firmware with the September date.
 
My screen just sits here. I did the Hackthisphone version as this one didn't work for me with the commands in terminal.

I am sitting with the same issue though I used this guide, it gets to that part and then the iphone does a restart and just sits at the apple icon. Been about 15 mins now.
 
Aac

Hey guys,

First of all, thanks so much for all the work you've put into this whole process. Brilliant minds.

I was able to jailbreak my iPod Touch from 1.1.1 from the instructions above and upgrade to 1.1.3 and everything is working great! Except I can't listen to any aac files now...

Any speculation as to why this might be the case?
 
i am up and running!!! Hyrbid mode,locate me..(no installer app needed to fix anything!!!! i followed this guide for the downgrading and used the modmyiphone's installer app to udgrade and jailbreak!!! thank you Sbrocket for your help!!! o ya.. and all sounds are working.. including iTunes store on my phone!!
 
What I don't understand is this.... "

* This guide now uses the official iPhone Dev Team version of the 1.1.3 jailbreak, instead of NateTrue's earlier released version. If you have already followed this guide previously and now want to re-jailbreak your iPhone with the newer (and less buggy) version of the jailbreak, start at step 3 again."

Step 3 is: Downgrading to 1.1.1 and jailbreaking ((Anyone with a (non-jailbroken) 1.1.2 or 1.1.3 iPhone and no valid AT&T/O2/etc. service, start here.)

This makes no sense to me.

I followed the HackthisPhone instruction (with 'official' version) and can't get the locator on maps to work. I figured I'd try this, but Not clear where to start. I'm now on 1.1.3 with modem firmware 4.02.13
 
Hey guys,

I had an iPhone 1.1.1 unlocked with AnySim.

Following tutorial to upgrade to 1.1.3 and upgrade.

At the part where I have to update to 1.1.2

Updated to 1.1.2 and performed Jailbreak. However phone now says Incorrect Sim Please use an approved sim.

What gives?!??! What do I do? I dont want to proceed any further if this is all kinds of ****ed up now.

PLEASE ADVISE

just go to the modmyifone.com homepage and its the first post u will see. A lot of people have reported success, and this process is approved by the devo team and has been tested.....not to mention u literally hit install and it does everything, all u do is eat a sandwich and watch tv while it does it. Any problems are discussed in the same thread. The guys that put it up are openly answering questions. Hope this helps!!

**I am in no way affiliated with the website, just a happy iphone hacker who wants to share an easy way to upgrade. I am not responsible for anything that goes wrong, not that it should, many report success. Be sure to use the official install from the modmyifone source as there are other people that have posted similar apps in installer. I have only used the modmyifone one and can only confirm success for that one, again I not affiliated with the site or the dev team .**
 
stoph - but I see a million bug fixes for it. And I still don't know if maps works fully.

Then I read this: Using the dev team's jailbreak, none of these are required. However, make sure you have upgraded installer to 3.10b while still in 1.1.2 or used the jb113.zip that includes installer. If installer does not have +s attributes, many things will not install!

Now it sounds like many who have updated Installer, can't get the bug fixes, or do much of anything?

Must say... this is all a nightmare.
 
Que?

Hiyo,
I've followed the instructions very carefully, six times this morning, but I only ever get as far as clicking on apptapp. The instant I click on it, safari crashes out, back to the "Activate iPhone" screen (not after a few minutes), and regardless of the "Never" sleep mode setting, after five seconds, the screen goes black and it turns off. I let it sit for twenty minutes anyway, just in case it was still installing in the background and planning on restarting, but nothing doing. This happens every time.

One detail is, any time I land on the Activate iPhone screen, I get an "Incorrect Sim" message. I assume that it's because when AT&T changed my plan from PAYG to a real plan, they gave me a new, (thus unoriginal) sim. I googled this error though, and found people saying that when they'd gotten that, they just motored through it and everything worked out fine in the end, so I don't know if this has any bearing on anything.

-------

This guide looks awesome. I've wanted to try jailbreaking for a while now, and I realize the sooner the better, as it looks as though the procedeure will only get longer and more involved as time goes by.
