    You cant use the phone function any more. You should not have updated it to 1.1.1

    However you should be able to use the rest fine if you follow the above instructions

    Many are clammoring about the update that Apple made to brick 3rd party applications for the Iphone owners everywhere who had hacked and installed 3rd party applications in their fones.However, to my elation I have researched most of the web for updates and read all sources and codes from different countries...you all are happy to be notified that within a week or 2, a new BREAK in the 1.1.1 Firmware and new softwares to unlock the Iphone with simpler application installer are being updated and made this very moment.And i am sure that the Dev Team is in their laboratory thinking of ways to have a reset to factory settings also so that this cat and mouse deal between Apple and the Hackers Worldwide will continue to flourish...unfortunately no detailed release yet has been made.only through my connections from hackers worldwide am I able to confirm that the projects of unlocking the Iphone easier despite new Firmware/Softwares from apple are in circulation.So just sit and wait and be patient.New improve applications and Unlocking tools for your iphone are on the way.So pass the word and update this site for future news and releases heard/seen/tried out there in the web...Much Luv and keep up the GREAT work!!let's make this the best Iphone for the masses. =)

    Downgraded to 1.0.2 from 1.1.1 AT&T SIM. Everything works but I can not associate with my WiFi Access point. Anyone else having this issue? Everything else seems to work.

    Okay, I NEED SOME INFO.
    Backround info: I bought an unlocked iphone off ebay a few weeks ago, i been using t-mobile.
    Family made me switch to AT&T so now I have AT&T 2 year contract. The salesperson at the cingular/at&t person says to activate it through itunes yada yada and says i can update stuff if i wanted. So after a week the new firmware came out, and it bricked my iphone.
    im wonder when it says.
    ''The iPhone Dev Team are working hard to downgrade the new firmware so that people can unlock their iPhone's again. However until then for iPhone users with a valid AT&T SIM everything should work just fine while those without the valid AT&T SIM can at least work with Wi-Fi and use the iPod.''
    do i fall under the category of "iphone user with valid AT&T sim"? or should i proceed and unbrick? please and thank you

    Hey mizdachubz,

    The statement you are referring to depends on the method used to unlock the iPhone.

    If it was the free unlocking method (anySIM) by the iPhone Dev Team then it has been observed that even though you can downgrade to iPhone firmware 1.0.2, the phone functionality doesn't work even with a valid AT&T contract. The iPhone Dev Team is currently working to fix this.

    However, if one has used the unlocking method by the iPhoneSIMFree then after downgrading the iPhone to firmware 1.0.2 all the functions work fine if you have a valid AT&T contract.

    So what you will need to find out is which method was used to unlock the iPhone that you bought at Ebay to see if it is applicable for you.

    Hope this answers your query.

    cheers!

    Hi,

    Can someone please help me. After i download the software to downgrade my iphone and i try to run the program it is asking me for a password. I was wondering if anyone knew what that password was. I have a MAC if that helps. I follow the directions exactly up to when my MAC ask if i want to complete download i click on yes. Then there is just this folder in my app labeled 1.1.1 with lots of .img files and only two files i can actually open.

    Hi,
    I had a unlocked 1.0.2 iphone and when installed appsnapp, this ended in an unusable phone. iTunes suggested to restore, and I didn't realize that it would upgrade to 1.1.2!! Now I'm a angry brick owner!
    Is there a metheod to just 'copy' a fresh 1.0.2 onto it like putting something on a memory stick (which it is somehow)??
    From there I could start to apptapp it again.
    Thanks for any infos!
