Yeah, totally didn't work on the ipod touch. Went through the steps and ended up just getting the ipod touch to revert to recovery mode.

@Dearhaw: Yea, I also posted it on digg. Saves me time with the copy-paste feature. Oh wait, isn't that also a feature missing from the iphone that my windows mobile phone has?? Oh right, it is!

@crazysamz:

Thanks, Sam Zebian, for sharing with us word for word what you posted at Engadget. Would've been nice if you could've also posted how you're getting ranked over there, too.

Dearhaw

@JEKYOO_STYLE, who said, "This is pretty useless unless you can actually upgrade your 1.1.1/1.1.2 unlocked to 1.1.3 and still be unlocked."

That's exactly what the web page states. Did you read it? "This jailbreak, like the 1.1.2 jailbreak, comes as an upgrade. This means you need to have a 1.1.1 or 1.1.2 jailbroken phone already, before you can begin."

Fofer

@jaggedtoaster: lol your an idiot unless Apple is a country, then jaibreaking is legal in yours. lmao why would you say something so stupid?? also why would you update? besides moving apps easily there is nothing new worth having, I would much rather have nes, gba, psx, snes, simcity(soon), apallo, iphysics etc. then the piece of ***** 1.1.3. Plus now your ipod looks stupid , summer board is an amazing app! I could go on.....

@donlphi: I like teh netflix app. I use it when watching previews so I don't have to remember later. to each his own though.

Bittermormon

Wow, you guys still have to wait for jailbreaks to use 3rd party apps. That's why I bought a windows mobile phone. No waiting for my 3rd party apps. And the apps are actually supported by microsoft.

crazysamz

This is pretty useless unless you can actually upgrade your 1.1.1/1.1.2 unlocked to 1.1.3 and still be unlocked.

jekyoo_style

@donlphi: I couldn't possibly agree with you more. I had a jailbroken 1.1.2 iPod touch, and I realized the stuff I had on there was useless crap, and the real reason I bought it was for the music/movies. So now I'm rocking the 1.1.3 with the Software Upgrade. I like staying legal.

jaggedtoaster

@donlphi:
Terminal, WiFi tethering, and an AIM client all make my iPhone better.

s3p5

Link isnt working?

oat

It works!

Squuiid

@UseMacNotCrack: Even when I do check stocks, I don't use the built in app. It's not as current as some other sites.

As for the 3rd party apps, I don't feel anybody has anything available that I absolutely need on my phone today or ever for that matter.

I used to have my phone hacked, but I restored it before the 2nd firmware upgrade. I had the NES emulator (pretty useless) and some other random software, but nothing actually made the phone any better. I don't see the draw other than the fact that people that know nothing about "hacking" are walking around talking about how they hacked their iPhone.

Keep living on the edge folks. I'm pretty content right now.

donlphi

Bring on the unlock!

phi

cue up the thin lizzy intro...

killthebabysitter

@Eugenia: Just jailbreak for now.

Jason Chen

Does it also unlock the phone to be used with a non-iPhone AT&T SIM, or just jailbreaks it? I have an AT&T SIM you see, but not an iPhone contract, so I basically also need an unlocking mechanism.

Eugenia

What about ipod touches, does this mean you can jailbreak them to?

ppeetteeyy

Ow. I just paid my $20 for the apps. Will this kill them?

Alucard

So I can finally use pagination? When will Apple let us choose which applications we want shown on screen? Who uses the stocks quotes that much anyway?

UseMacNotCrack

So when is the iphone 1.1.3 OTB Unlock coming thats when I'm gonna celebrate

UndeadOverlord

So...um.....whatcha gonna do when the SDK comes?

Kaiser-Machead

Hey,

This is a tutorial with screenshots on how to use this jailbreak here: [www.iclarified.com] if anyone is interested!

slevytam

For some reason this method is saying that my iPhone is not jail broken and won't let me update it. Even though it is jail broken. I think there are still some bugs in this process. Either that I don't know what I'm doing.

Teutates74

hey little help
i used jailbreakme.com/
now when i try to use this it says iphone not jailbroken does anyone else have this problem

kcarr

@izim1: no, I called him an idiot for saying jailbreaking an ipod touch was illegal... thats the only reason I made the post

ppeetteeyy

I don't actually have any installed programs. I simply need the jailbreak to activate. I would uninstall "installer" if I could, but now I can hide it off on another screen, so, no big deal.

jrog

@jrog:

do your already installed programs carry over to the new jailbreak? or are they erased in the process of upgrading?

MrBlahBlah

@sorensilk: if having those apps makes it more useful to you, then more power to you man. my comment was more in reference to the kids (ppeetteeyy more than that other kid) that started trying to prove "dolphni" and the other 1.1.3 users they were wrong. like that other user(@Bittermormon:) said:"to each his own". i have an unlocked iphone with at&t because i travel to other countries often. if i could get an unlocked iphone with whatever software apple releases i'd probably have that. i dont have use for any of the apps you mentioned. so that makes us "idiots" like "ppeetteeyy" said? just because some people arent like him and have no need for useless "game" apps or "pimping" out their home-screens?

izim1

I already updated to 1.1.3 so no go for me. Not that I really care, I had a jailbroken iPhone for months until 1.1.3 and after the initial fun factor of using 3rd party apps I realized I never used any of them - if nothing else it made the iPhone unstable and annoying. I'm happily waiting for official SDK apps that will be optimized/tested for the iPhone and NOT run as root!

mobilehavoc

Just did this to my 1.1.2 iphone. I have an ATT sim, but it's on a corporate plan. I guess I could switch it now, but before that wasn't an option. It all worked just fine, and I have no complaints, other than the location must need a new baseband firmware for the radio. I can't do that one feature. I think the procedure is to upgrade to 1.1.3 officially, downgrade and jailbreak, and then follow this jailbreak method. Too much trouble for me to go through right this minute, maybe this weekend.

jrog

@izim1: As an adult, I very much enjoy using my hacked iPhone for it's RSS Reader, e-book reader, voice recorder, and VNC. All very useful, and not exactly kids toys.

But if you don't want a hacked iPhone, don't hack it. Mine's more useful to me hacked and it hasn't caused any problems so I have no reason not to.

sorensilk

@izim1: (fiirst I would just like to point out that I am talking about and ipt, not iphone)There are other benefits besides games, but my main point was that it was pointless to update.... For example there is a music app coming out that is much better than the one apple provides, that is a piratical reason to jailbreak.. plus who doesn't like games? the only job I have is getting paid to jailbreak ipods and sell stuff on ebay via drop shipping(which is a lot more than I would make with a real job)

ppeetteeyy

@ppeetteeyy:
he meant to say "i agree with the guys that say there isnt a 3rd party app that can make the phone any better TO AN ADULT..." of course if your some idiot teenager and only wanna be "cool" to your other teenage friends (as it is painfully obvious that you are) by showing off how you "hack" your phone with useless apps, then yeah.. all these JB are for you. honestly, boy? "nes"? "snes" "simcity" WTF!? why would you even say something so stupid? those apps are useless to adults. do you really spend time playing "super mario bros" on your damn phone? get a job, kid. @s3p5: "terminal" no one really uses that. "wifi tethering" c'mon dude. "IM"? really, is that necessary? you have a phone, why not have a REAL conversation?....
Jailbreaks are really only usefull if you can sim-unlock the phones. any other crap app (mostly games) is completely useless to the average adult.

izim1

@gotzenn: so did it work for u ??? and if so what did u change to get to the windows xp compatibility mode? cuz im also running vista on my comp so maybe that is also my problem because it actually did copy the file kinda fast especially when saying this could take a while or something like that...

exterminat25

@s3p5: come off of it, dude... "I use terminal for network diagnostics and system monitoring while I'm mobile." it's almost as if im talking to my 12 yr old neighbor who "follows the stock market". you do realize just saying that makes you look like a complete tool, right? but why stop there:"I use WiFi tethering to respond to your uneducated comments on a full size keyboard while in class." use a full-size keyboard on your 3 inch phone.. "And I use IM for business communication when a phone call is too disruptive."? what "business" communicates through "text"? selling "speed" and "weed" while in class? look kid. like i said before. to the average adult. those apps are useless. if they make "your" life easier, then, good for you. but i know i dont need any of those things (much less an nes emulator). like i said before: my iphone is fully jailbroken and unlocked. i could add those things if i cared to do so. i dont. so....... why try to convince people that dont need or use any of those things, that it makes THEIR phones better to have them on there?

izim1

@exterminat25: I think I may have figured out what the problem is. I'm running it on Vista, and when it first copied the firmware to the phone, it took less than a second. I just ran the process again, but first I changed it to run in Windows XP compatability mode, and now it's taking a little while to copy the file over. I'm betting it didn't actually copy over the first time, which explains why the upgrader didn't do anything. It's still copying over right now, and then I'll let you know if it works! If so, then compatability mode was the answer.

gotzenn

I'm having a problem after updating. I did the upgrade, and am now on 1.1.3, but i only have about 8kb free space left. I figured I would try to delete that image file, to free some space up. Filezilla wouldnt connect, and then I realized i need to install open ssd and the like. Well, installer says all of my programs are installed, but none are showing up on my homescreen? Can anyone lend a hand?

Serantos

@gotzenn: glad to see im not the only 1.. not that glad that it aint workin for us but at least im not alone and maybe if this happens to more ppl they will patch it up...

exterminat25

forgive me for my ignorance but does this mean that if i buy an iphone with 1.1.3 out-of-the-box, this method won't work?

premraj

@EXTERMINAT25: I have the same problem! I followed all steps, and everything appeared to be working, but the last step to install the 1.1.3 soft upgrade seemed to work almost too quickly. It was half-way through the install bar, and then it restarted after 10 seconds or so, and I still have 1.1.2. Anyone have any ideas?

gotzenn

idk what im doing wrong... but im wondering if any of you know and can help me out... well when i do everything it seems to work perfect i follow all teh instructions to the point and well when it tells me ibrikr has done its part to go to installer i go to installer download 1.1.3 soft upgrade adn when it installs it it reboots and it everyhting but when i go to my homescreen it is still on 1.1.2 and i go to installer and it says that 1.1.3 soft upgrade isnt installed... ive tried isntalling it again and again but it just does the same thing can any1 help?

exterminat25

@izim1: I use terminal for network diagnostics and system monitoring while I'm mobile. I use WiFi tethering to respond to your uneducated comments on a full size keyboard while in class. And I use IM for business communication when a phone call is too disruptive.

There are many adult reasons to jailbreak the iPhone.

s3p5

@gotzenn: actualy i did have those apps but either way it was a little to late... but i ran everytihng and i ran the soft update and well it restarted and then it gave me the white wire and itunes picture saying to connect to itunes and i was stuck in recovery mode so now im wondering if i should go to 1.1.3 regular or if i should restore to 1.1.1 and then jailbreak to 1.1.2 not sure what to do now lol

exterminat25

@exterminat25: If it's not already too late, I'd recommend uninstalling all your third-party apps BEFORE you do the update. I just did the update, and my springboard, customize, and extended settings apps all can not be uninstalled (give errors), and I no longer have even the standard settings button to change anything. Thsi may not affect you if you don't have those apps, but I'm restoring to the normal 1.1.3 right now, since I think my phone is filled with corrupt apps right now, and I don't feel like going through the whole process again.

gotzenn

@gotzenn: aite thanks alot dude u were a big help here lol thx again

exterminat25

do not do this update. SMS app no longer works properly, there's no locate on google maps, there's no summerboard, and there's no openssh or filesystem write-access. if you moved your apps with bosstool, you can't access or reinstall most of them, so you're screwed.

brettt

@exterminat25: Yep, it just finished! In the folder, right-click on the ibrickr.exe file, and click "Properties". Then click on the "Compatability" tab and check the box "Run this program in compatability mode for" and select "Windows XP SP2". Hit ok, and start the process from the beginning. It should take a while to copy the files over this time, before you get the message "iBrickr has finished it's part". Then continue and finish up. You'll have 1.1.3. Note that all your third-party apps will be gone, and you have to uninstall them and reinstall them. And as mentioned previously, the "Locate" feature in Google Maps won't work with this baseband. Good luck!

gotzenn

Successfully upgraded to a jailbroken 1.1.3.

@izim1: Those apps probably are useless to the AVERAGE adult, but your original post suggested they were useless to all adults.

s3p5

Just did it using the windows version from within parallels running XP. This was done on a macbook pro running leopard 10.5.1. Everything went very well, and faster than expected. Upgraded and installer is working just fine. I lost all my apps though, but they seem to be reinstalling just fine. Cool stuff...

juanperin

I just have one thing to say to people saying there's nothing important gained by jailbreaking: TODO-LISTS.

Every freakin' cell phone under the sun, smart phone or not, has these things. The cheapass phone that the cell companies give away with plans have them, and yet the iPhone doesn't. They're a major part of the way I get my adult things done, and it's utterly unacceptable that Apple isn't supporting them.

Jailbreaking allows me to go back to using my phone to keep my workout checklist, my shopping list, and keep track all of the other niggling little details that an adult needs to get done.

melomel

It Works, tested with jailbroken/unlocked iphone 1.1.1 using Mx Telcel(México)as a carrier, i get fully functional iphone, the only things that u miss are : apps(need to install again) and wifi ( need to enter your password again), but with this method u get a unlocked/jailbroken iphone 1.1.3.

Thanks to all Dev Team u rocks fellows!!

iscangel

I just did the deed on a jailbreaked 1.1.1/unlocked etc... and now all works finr at 1.1.3 and remains unlocked.... yes, non-AT&T, using a SingTel sim in Singapore :-)

nice....

lovethegiz

@iscangel: Wow, I wanna try but I'm afraid of locking the cellphone again. I got a native 1.1.2, downgraded to 1.1.1, jailbroken, updated to 1.1.2 and unlocked.

Palestina

I can't get Summerboard or Dock to uninstall. Also Customize doesn't work with 1.1.3

Serantos

Has anyone else noticed the response on John Zdziarski's blog claiming Nate has been kicked off the Team for releasing this jailbreak with copyrighted data?

As much as I admire Johnny Z for bringing us the NES emulator, does he speak for the Dev team on this matter or is something else going on?

Drama!

SpoonyBard

question that hopefully someone can answer - have completed all steps, but still need 1.1.3 soft upgrade from installer, which doesnt seem to be there. Ive tried refreshing sources a few times (every hour or so) but still not there. has it been taken down? or am i having another issue. ive noticed quite a few other people seem to have this problem. any help much appreciated

l3xo

The the 1.1.3 package maker for the MAC version doesn't seem to be mac file. Also does anyone know have directions updating 1.1.3 when using 1.0.2?

shastakim

@izim1: Actually my friend who is a 3rd level network ops for Hawaiian Telcom loves the terminal and has even saved his neck a few times when he forgot his blackberry at work. As for the comment about WiFi tethering, you proved his point with that on. WiFi tethering isn't something you use to access your phone using a keyboard, its simply a way to turn your phone into a modem so that way if your on a computer with out access to the internet or you don't wish to use the secured network at your work or school you can access it using your phone. Also on the comment about IM, I work for a software development company and IM is our prefered method of communication. Our CEO has made everyone install ICQ just for that reason. Its a not intrusive way to communicate especially when you need a quick on-line answer to a question. Plus there are a bunch of other apps I find useful as a grown-up such as the Netflix Que Managment, Flickr Uploader, Dictionary, and the mathmatical conversion software. And as the development community continues to grow I'm sure you'll run acrossed several hand applications you didn't know you needed until you have them.

BWilde

@kcarr: after jailbreakme you need to ssh in and replace services.plist [modmyifone.com]

nsingapu

@gotzenn: restart iBrickr, then tell it to download 1.1.3 from itunes again, and it will finish downloading it. That's what I did.
Now that I am done following the instructions to upgrade, my phone wont make it past the apple logo. :(

cdudeman

@Palestina: BTW, I'm using a nextsim card, and it didn't worked on a 1.1.1 firmware, I think it's made for the 1.1.2 only.

Palestina

@izim1: Alrighty granpa, we understand how serious and adult an iphone is, and now that you've set us straigh on what adult uses there are for the phone, I've gone ahead and canceled text messaging. Maybe though, you should check out the jitterbug? Sounds more you're speed. I guess you better get back to keeping those damn kids off your lawn...

@ppeetteeyy: Why are you calling other people stupid when your the one that asked about it working on iPod touch? They both run a version of Mac OS X.

iPod Touch was already jailbroken. I purchased one myself last night and did a quick search and found the very simple and quick method to jailbreak the 1.1.3 iPod touch.
