Just so there aren't too many threads on the topic, please discuss any problems, warnings, tips or latest news on downgrading and jailbreaking an iPhone running the new 1.1.3 firmware.
 
Do you think 1.1.3 will be jailbroken at all? From what I've seen, Apple seem to have patched up pretty much all of the loopholes now. I guess you're right, everyone just has to wait and see...

Mod - Thanks for the reminder! If I wasn't so in love with iPhysics, I'd go ahead and up to 1.1.3 at this point. Nice update.

Well, technically 1.1.2 wasn't jailbroken either, just "prepped" so that you could upgrade from a jailbroken 1.1.1 and still keep Installer.app.

I think the main hindrance at this point would be if the community decided to skip 1.1.3 and wait for the SDK.

That's what I'm going to do...await SDK before I even think of updating firmware (I have a 1.1.2 OTB, jailbroken)...
 
I have a fully unlocked iPhone running 1.1.1 (bought on launch day)

do you think there will be any way to get the SKD update running on this iPhone eventually?
 
I upgraded to 1.1.3. (sigh)

I jailbroke my 1.1.2 and was styling and having fun, then Google had to have that nifty update, that I JUST HAD TO HAVE, so I pushed my phone up to 1.1.3 and got it, but now I'm dealing with the hum-drum interface once again!

Yep I should have waited... and so should you all too, unless you HAVE to have the Google feature - and want to re-arrange your icon layout.. :eek:
 
I just found out that the previous owner left an ATT sim card in the phone. I'm currently waiting for the StealthSim to come in the main (to use with Rogers network). This sim is most likely a dead one, but do you think this will allow me to upgrade to 1.1.3, activate, and then use the StealthSIM as normal?


I'm currently very wary of this, since my 1.1.2. is working perfectly. So I'm not going to do anything stupid. I'm just wondering if anybody has tried this, especially those in the states.
 
Don't do it!!!

I had an unlocked 1.1.2 with bootloader 4.6 unlocked with a Turbo Sim. My phone is no longer unlocked. Worse, you can not downgrade the firmware or the baseband. Now i'm pretty much stuck with an ibrick.

Is Apple going to start making 1.1.3 standard anytime soon?:eek:
 
Forgot to mention, once you upgrade the firmware to 1.1.3 and attempt to downgrade back to 1.1.2 or lower (i've taken it back down to 1.0.0), the baseband from firmware 1.1.3 is still there. In firmwares 1-1.0.2, you can kick it out of recovery mode, but the phone does not recognize the Turbo Sim. The third party applicator can still be installed, but your left with an ipod.

In versions 1.1.1-1.1.2, the phone will not kick out of recovery mode or do anything. I'm not an ATT user, so i just wound up buying a new iphone and putting the other one on ebay to see if I can make up for the loss.

My advise is not to update to 1.1.3 until someone finds a way to unlock it and jailbreak it.
 
George Hotz, sound familiar?, has found a hardware unlock for the iPhone. A software unlock/jailbreak should be here soon...
 
Had someone asked me for help because had updated to 1.1.3 on his unlocked iPhone (bad idea).

Tried a couple hours. No luck.

1.1.3:
no slider

Attempts to restore to 1.1.1 or 1.1.2 results in
- Error 1
- Error 1604

Yeah its useless until a jailbreak method is released, and it wont be until after the next update presumably at the release of the SDK...
