imageiPhone "Elite" Team Releases Method to Downgrade Baseband for iPhone v1.1.1

This week has been hectic with jailbreaking and unlocking news for iPhone firmware 1.1.1 which all started with the iPhone Dev Team announcing that they have been able to jailbreak the iPhone.

    i guess I'm still confused.

    I unlocked my iPhone using the anySim and related software. My iPhone is currently running firmware 1.0.2 and using a T-Mobile sim and is working fine. I've never tried to upgrade to 1.1.1.

    Is there currently a way for me to upgrade to firmware 1.1.1 and still have my phone work with T-Mobile?

    I'm sure there are others with the same question. My interpretation of the various articles here and on iphoneatlas.com is that there isn't a clear solution yet for me.

    Thanks,

    While I can't say anything about running unlocked ON firmware 1.1.1, I can confirm it is possible to jailbreak AND unlock a phone that has at some point been updated to 1.1.1.

    I've just downgraded my 1.1.1 phone to 1.0.2 and successfully unlocked (and jalbroke). Phone is working fine with Unicell SIM... except data, which I'm now placing a call to trouble-shoot. Thinking this demo SIM doesn't have data.

    As a recap, I had previously jailbroke my phone (on 1.0.2), but I hadn't gotten around to unlocking. I upgraded to 1.1.1 when it was released out of curiosity. Sadly, AT&T service in so incredibly poor in my area, I'm hoping TMobile or Unicel will actually work more than 50% to make calls. To that end, I've successfully downgraded to 1.0.2 and unlocked the phone.

    Hope this helps. Huge Kudos to all the folks who have made this possible!!

    PS - For what it's worth, in my own reading/searching, I believe jailbreak has been accomplished for 1.1.1 (see link below), but not unlock as of 10/15/07.

    HI. I have a jailbroken(ziphone) 1.1.3 8g iphone. I use the tmobile sim card. I accidentally did a software update on Itunes to 2.0. Now my fone is locked or bricked. I only see the apple symbol OR the "connect to Itunes" icon on my fone. I have done several resets via Itunes and I only get as far as the connect to itunes. In Itunes when after the reset, it asks for the original sim card which I do not have because I bought the phone from ebay. unlocked it with ziphone and the tmobile chip. How do I get past this? Can anyone help me or should I think about getting another fone?
