apps and everything!

[kretzy]

Ok, so how does this work exactly? :o

I've never jailbroken my iPod but I want to. To have the new apps and customisable home screen, does the update still have to be purchased?

Go to ipodtouchfans.com to get instructions. And yes, everything will work.

SWEET..hopefully the summerboard works I know how people had issues with that..so is this the final release..I cant wait to get my Ipod Touch Monday, now that this is the official release I will be able to install this without fear..and hopefully its easy to install, and not too difficult for us who have never jailbroken or hacked anything..ever..please keep me posted on the progress :)

[-Dark Angel-]

Awesome, now all I have to do is wait for ipodtouchmaster to make a video to show me how to do it without fear of damaging my touch.

[w0ngbr4d]

its very easy and only took about 10-15 minutes because i pre-downloaded the 1.1.3 firmware and put it on the ipod before the jailbreak.

it does not come with apps enabled. you must still buy those.

i am very happy. now only if iSolitare was updated...

[Mackan]

So, one says the apps are enabled, another says they aren't. Always inconstiences?

The first jailbreak that came out used the iPhone firmware on the iPod touch. You had to swap a .plist file so the iPod would think its an iPhone, then it would display the applications.

The official jailbreak released by the dev team uses the iPod touch firmware. Therefore, you can't make the iPod touch think its an iPhone to display the new apps.

So you have two choices. Run the iPhone firmware on your iPod, or run the iPod firmware on your iPod. I'd rather run the correct firmware.

I believe I used the first method - is there a way to confirm whether I have the iPhone or Touch firmware?

Also any ideas (assuming I did get the iPhone firmware) if using one of the other jailbreak methods will allow this to be corrected without losing all settings, music, etc? I'd like to use the proper firmware, but would rather avoid a complete restore/loss of settings etc.

Thanks,

So if I've already upgraded to 1.1.3 how do I get it back to 1.1.2 to jailbreak? Pardon my ignorance, I'm a complete n00b at this. :o

[shigzeo]

i just used this method and now i have all the iPhone apps i am sure. even the icons wobble. it was just two extra steps outlined in the ipodtouchfans website. cheers

[Xenn0X]

i jailbreak to 1.1.3 but now i see that in itunes 400 mb is used for system.
does the jailbreak leave some stuff behind?

[shigzeo]

go into sources or system to find the file that gets rid of 300mb of that install leftover - gone - gone gone

You say that you need to buy them. Does that mean it will sync the purchased apps? So far none of the other ways allow iTunes to sync your apps, and then it does not think you have them which = no sync of email =(
I just wanna sync my purchased apps on a jailbroken touch so I dont keep getting iTunes errors. Can someone confirm this?

gonna retry the whole process again from scratch

What error do you get?

I was told in the IRC channel (by planetbeing) last night be the dev team that the purchased apps will still sync/work and that I still needed to buy them.

After the jailbreak, I plugged the iPod in and was asked by iTunes to purchase the applications. I clicked through the screens to buy them, and it started syncing to my iPod.

So far everything seems to be working without any problems.

[andybno1]

apps and everything!

its only apps and everything when you install ipodtouchmasters little installer "fix" but as the repo is down this is just the 1.1.3 without apps

well i bought them on 1.1.3 now jailbroken and it will not sync them at all.
ssh to ipod and i see the apps on the ipod but no links on ipod desktop.

downloaded them tough apptap and still no go. screw 1.1.3 jailbreak. going back to original 1.1.3 with apps working.

[-Dark Angel-]

Yes my lil pets, go run around my lil guinea pigs. Enjoy the sweet taste of jailbroken ipods. Seriously, there are just too many people saying about things not syncing over, apps not showing to scare me. I'll just wait little bit more until a cleaner version is working and not many people having problems as well.

[Jahfer]

The easiest way to jailbreak 1.1.3 is to use iJailbreak. they just came out w/ a new release and it worked perfectly for me. All you have to do is plug in ur ipod, click jailbreak and it does almost everything for you. all you have to do is that soft upgrade on installer, then it will show a spinning cog for about 5-10 min. finally it will restart, and you click through the few final steps, and voila...you have a jailbroken 1.1.3 ipod touch with the iphone apps, the wiggle feature and webclips all enabled. i couldn't be happier!:D

[macfan881]

so does summerboard work?

Not currently...it says you need either firmware 1.1.1 or 1.1.2 to use it

I think this uses the leaked 1.1.3 jailbreak for the iPhone. You are running iPhone firmware, not iPod touch firmware if you use this method.

Please correct me if they've updated it to use the official dev team jailbreak.

What are the negatives of running the iphone firmware if, in fact i am...

the process is very automated and easy

So everything's good yeah?
I'm really considering it but don't really wanna screw my nice 1.1.2. Also, do you literally have to reinstall the apps once you're done and they're as you left them?
Tahh

[w0ngbr4d]

Not sure if there are any...I'm just more comfortable running the correct firmware on the touch.

Yep, pretty much everything was intact. Had to reinstall openssh though. And the symlink to my Applications was gone, so had to make a new one. But the all my apps were still in the place I left them. Settings etc were also preserved.

I used the iJailbreak method, btw.

[atsushioka13]

A question:
Is the 1.1.3 Jailbreak by the Dev Team down right now or not working as of 1/27 5:52 PM? It is the one with 592.7KB, I have been waiting for 1 hr. 30 min now. I hope I haven't screwed it up. It is not exactly "frozen" as the clock is still working, but I think I saw the Installing package... bar move once. I have been doing this since 4:10PM.

[Aaleck]

Did this and it worked... I then added the apps that I bought and those also work. Though, I installed about 3 apps and after that everytime after it downloads and goes to "Installing" it crashes...

I know I had this problem in 1.1.2 and I solved it by doing the app space limit hack... but I'm not sure now, since I only have 3 apps installed lol

Any one else have this problem and know a solution?

[dukebound85]

i had to reinstall apps. i think this was because i didnt follow instructions so i had to go to 1.1.1 lol. yea but when i actually read what to do it worked great. i would just ftp to ipod and drag apps and stuff to desktop and then put back on. i wish i did that haha

but yea right now everything is good

Could you post how you re-did the symlink, that's the main thing holding me back :)

[delude]

I haven't re-created the symlink or moved my applications folder yet, but instead have moved the fonts folder. If someone is certain that moving applications folder again wont harm anythung, then I will at a later date.

[Slip]

So having relocated my Apps folder, will the upgrade still work yeah?
God I feel a newb at this, 1.1.2 was fine!

[Bitter]

None of the "jailbreaks" out right now are real jailbreaks. They are just soft upgrades, they don't break the jailb of your iPod touch, so it is best to wait until someone actually makes a real one in the future.

Ah well, I'm on a JB 1.1.3 so I'm not fussed ;)

[delude]

Slip,I moved my applications folder and updated fine. I did however delete all of my apps, just t try and make the process smoother but I'm pretty sure that if you keep them there they will be fine.

The 'official dev' method seems to be the best, and is the one I used.

i will say im dissapointed how protected aac files wont play on 1.1.3

[boonleng]

Same here... using iPhone firmware on the touch... can't play all the DRM itunes ...

[hourog]

After spending an evening of observation over at the ipodtouchfans forum, IMO, none of the 1.1.3 JB's should be undertaken, unless the user is accomplished at tweaking and fiddling with the iPod touch OS and willing to burn some time.

Even the newer offerings released tonight, which were supposed to be pretty close to perfect, developed hiccups when exposed to the scrutiny of multiple installs.

This will all be corrected in time; just how much time remains to be seen. The people dedicated to the various methods are passionate about their quest and all must be commended for their efforts. They will generate a working solution.

The other obvious question is: is this jailbreak worth it with the SDK so close? The answer probably rests with your own spirit of adventure, your quotient for tinkering and how much your time is worth.

Happy hacking.

[Kerber0s34]

This is the method that I used:

http://touchhax.com/jailbreak113.html/

My purchased January update apps sync'd back, DRM seems to be working - at least I haven't come across any iTunes purchased tracks that don't play, installer works fine, no space issues yet, and I'm on my third springboard screen of apps.

I've done 4 1.1.3 jailbreaks in the last 24 hours, and this was the most pain free. It's not a "one click jailbreak" but the instructions are clear and concise, its not difficult even for a newb.

Just my .02 pesos worth.

[Bitter]

Ah well, I'm on a JB 1.1.3 so I'm not fussed ;)

That would be nice, if you are actually using a jailbroken iPod. The "jailbreak" you are referring to is actually just a soft upgrade. But that is ok, you can refer to it as that if you want, but the jail isn't actually broken on your iPod. You just have SpringBoard overwritten. Which allows you to install 3rd party apps and such like a jailbreak, but it is not as efficient. I am just going by what the dev team says, and other knowledgeable iPod touch users. Enjoy your upgrade though for now. It is only a matter of time before a true jailbreak is released. According to rumors, the dev team has a second method to do a true jailbreak that will be released after the SDK. Let's hope they do.

Oh yeah I know, 1.1.2 and .3 have been the updates, all I was saying is that I'm not really assed how it's accomplished, it's just nice to have ;)

I'm not sure I understand where you're coming from on this. Jalibreaking in the common sense of the term means gaining full read/write access from root, which is exactly what the official 1.1.3 jailbreak does. The devs also call it a jailbreak. Springboard isn't replaced during it, you need to patch it separately to get access to apps & wobbly.

Looks like a jailbreak, works like a jailbreak, is called a jailbreak ... so in what sense exactly do you think it's not a proper jailbreak?

[Slip]

I know exactly what you mean Slip, I always prefer to have the most recent firmware.

Great minds ;)
Anyway, about moving the apps folder, the update of BossTool that appeared on Installer today (v0.35) now supports 1.1.3, and I've tried it so all's well.

[Pippen Man]

I don't know about you guys, but I Jailbroke my iPod touch on Sunday, using the **unofficial:eek:** Jailbreak method. Have any of you gone back, restored, and used the **official:)** Jailbreak method? Is there really a difference?

Nope, but I am going to restore and go back to 1.1.2. There are too many things that aren't that good to be useful. Videos is one of them :/
Also it'll be nice to start from a clean slate

[delude]

I'm on 1.1.2 again now. I may well give this New Official 1.1.3 Software Update (http://www.ipodtouchfans.com/forums/showthread.php?t=32332) a try though.
It will be the third time I have updated to 1.1.3, but I don't know whether to just stay on 1.1.2 and wait a month to get a proper Jailbreak for 1.1.3. Hmmm...

[LathspeLL]

I jailbreaked mine with the official dev team 1.1.3 upgrader from the Installer. Than installed app pack. Working fine right now. I can't notice any bugs etc...

noobe here,

I have an itouch that has never been jailbroken at all..it's at 1.1.3 How would I go about jailbreaking it? Do I have to revert back to a previous version? If I do go back what do you lose? And exactly what are the benefits and draw backs of doing this? i'm just a little nervous about bricking out a 250.00 toy! I have hacked many phones but this costs alot more than the phones....

Thanks

I hate to sound like on of those obnoxious forum members who always say 'search' but these points have been talked about ad nauseam.
In short, you can't brick it, you have to restore which wipes everything on it and the main benefit is 3rd party apps of which there are hundreds.

[quigleybc]

i'm sure there a ton of threads about all this....however this one seems like a really good one so far.

i also have a new touch and straight away I bought the apps and upgraded...then I remembered about jailbreaking.

from the sounds of it, I think i'll wait for a bit. I never hacked jack shizz before.

Yeah, wait til the one released after the SDK, the current one's pretty poor, well for us iPod users anyway.
