    Hi

    This completed without any problem with newly purchased 1.1.2 fw and 4.6 bootloaded.

    Now next question is how we can activate the other network operator SIM to place a voice call?

    I have an OOB iPhone w/ 1.1.2 and this worked absolutely fine- though the instructions seemed needlessly long, the only thing that isn't clear is if you download the firmware with safari or any other browser that automatically decompresses files you need to open up the file and create an archive of the six files and title it iPhone1,1_1.ipsw

    I want to do this but I have a question....

    I just got an iphone. if things go bad...can I just call the restore mode again and restore to v1.1.2 and have everything back to normal as if I never did anything? or if i commit to this, and things go wrong, can I mess up my iphone for good?

    thanks

    OK I was successful.

    Running Windows XP Pro Service Pack 2
    iPhone AT&T service, software version 1.1.2
    Java Runtime version 1.60(you need this to run the unbricker!)

    Installing took some time, but finally sucessful!

    I hear Apple will allow 3rd Party apps in their newer firmware early this year though...for those who can't wait, here you go...lots of stuff to use!

    Okay, after much experimenting the following is sure to work. Follow the above 23 directions to the tee, except the following comments. When you get the error message on number 5, DO NOT CLICK on the message, instead, go directly to the jailbrake.jar and keep going, leave itunes along for the time being. This should get you through to number 19, if you have the choice, do not use your old backup file, start a new iphone. Then, and this is IMPORTANT, before you start number 22, you MUST, I repeat, MUST shut down itunes, but leave your phone connected to the computer, then run the rest of the applications, itunes will pop up again once it gets going, this is fine and the iphone will reset a few times, just let it do it's thing. hope it helps.... I was up till 4:00 a.m. figuring it out. thanks to all who helped above, also check out http://lifehacker.com/337863/how-to-install-third+party-apps-on-your-new-iphone-or-ipod-touch

    good night and good luck

    Can anyone confirm if this process still works with a phone that has already been updated to 1.1.3 or not?

    I would like to take a 1.1.3 phone down to a jailbroken 1.1.2

    Thanks.

    iPhone cannot be downgraded to 1.1.2 after the update! It is one of the things stopped by apple! I'm pretty gutted, as i upgraded only for the movie rentals, only to find its not available in the u.k yet and may not be for some time! Everything else that 1.1.3 brought, i could already do with 3rd party, plus more! But, apparentely, 1.1.3 has been jailbroken and fully unlocked, but the means to do so will not be release until february when the SDK is released?!

    I have an iphone which came with firmware 1.1.2 when I purchased it. Using this above method I was able to downgrade it to 1.1.1 and jail break it. I did not upgrade back to 1.1.2 which were the last steps.

    Now I wanna know what do I need to do to use any other carrier like Tmob or so, basically how can I unlock this feature. Thanks!!

    Windows Guide, hack 1.1.2


    Downgrading to 1.1.1
    1. Make sure you have iTunes installed
    2. Download the following
    iPhone1,1_1.1.1_3A109a_Restore.ipsw
    iPhone1,1_1.1.2_3B48b_Restore.ipsw
    1.1.2-jailbreak.zip (and expand it to a folder)
    3. Make sure device is charged (enough for it to run)
    4. Turn off device (hold power key till red slide comes up, slide to turn off)
    5. Hold the home key down and put in cradle(hold key down till the usb-cd and music icon comes up)
    6. A message box "iTunes has detected an iPhone in recovery..." will appear, select the ok button.
    7. Hold the shift on your keyboard, and select the recovery button in Itunes.
    8. A file selection dialog will appear, select the file iPhone1,1_1.1.1_3A109a_Restore.ipsw
    9. Let itunes restore your device, eventually a message will appear in Itunes saying to register,
    10. otherwise if itunes comes up with an error 1015, don't panic. simply run windows.bat (in 1.1.2-jailbreak folder) and select (Boot from recovery)
    11. Your device will now be running 1.1.1 OS


    Jailbreaking 1.1.1
    12. turn your iphone on
    13. Slide for emergency
    14. dial *#307# and select the call button
    15. select the cancel button
    16. dial 0 and select the call button
    17. select the answer button
    18. select the hold button
    19. select the decline button
    20. select the contacts button
    21. select the add contacts button
    22. add a contact with prefs:// as the first URL, and http://jailbreakme.com as the second url
    23. select then prefs, and setup your wireless connection
    24. repeat steps 16-20, and then select your contact and select jailbreakme url
    25. scroll to bottom of web page on your device, and select AppTapp installer,
    26. Wait 5 minutes till your device reboots unlocked
    27. If it doesn't reboot after 5 minutes repeat 24-26 a few times till it works
    (important, while jailbreaking for wifi to stay up)


    Moving to 1.1.2
    28. Turn your 1.1.1 jailbreak phone on
    29. Slide and unlock the phone
    30. Select the installer icon
    31. Find the application, oktoprep 1.1.1, and run it
    32. It should come up with, "you are ready to preform an update to..."
    33. Select the home button, to close, wait a few seconds and your device will lock again.
    34. Start iTunes
    35. Cancel any warning dailogs
    36. Hold your shift key down on your pc keyboard and select the update button in iTunes
    37. Select the image iPhone1,1_1.1.2_3B48b_Restore.ipsw
    38. Let itunes update your phone to 1.1.2, it will eventually reboot with the slide for emergency button
    39. You now have 1.1.2 installed :-)

    Jailbreaking 1.1.2
    40. Close itunes
    41. Run windows.bat file in your 1.1.2-jailbreak folder on PC
    42. Select the jailbreak button on the window that appears
    43. After a few seconds lots of numbers will start appearing in a dos shell :-)
    all good
    44. Eventually you will get a popup window with 'all done, rebooting..."

    Getting your sim working :-)
    45. Go to Settings > General > Auto Lock, and set to “Never”.
    46. Go to Installer, and install BSD Sybsystem if it is not already on your phone.
    47. Go to Installer, and add a new source called http://rep.frenchiphone.com
    48. Refresh sources, and then install Anysim 1.21u, but don’t run it yet!
    49. Reboot the iPhone
    50. Go to Settings and turn on the AIRPLANE mode (this is very important. If you forget it your phone will get stuck in a loop and you’ll have to go and beg W9cae for instructions on how to get it out.)
    51. Return to the Springboard and tap on the AnySIM to run anySIM 1.21u.
    52. Your phone is now unlocked, but you are not yet finished.
    53. Go to Installer > Uninstall, and uninstall AnySIM 1.21u.
    54. Install iWorld
    55. Turn Airplane mode off again.
    56. Go to installer and from “Tweaks (1.1.2)” install iWorld
    57. Return to the Springboard, tap on the iWorld icon and follow the prompts.

    YAY ALL DONE!!!!!!
