Hey everyone,

I've just released iJailBreakMobile, which lets you upgrade your iPhone or iPod touch to a jailbroken 1.1.3 over the air, from 1.1.1 or 1.1.2! You can find more info at http://ijailbreak.com/

Question is:

Is Google Maps "Locate Me" still rendered broken in this jailbreak?

Still waiting for a very reliable, no side affects jailbreak...

Should be, since the baseband isn't touched.

i used natetrue's method, and there is a seaperate app called "locate me" which does the triangulation and sends the info to maps.

does this only work on legit iphones locked to their original carrier? (ie, att, o2 etc..)

1) anyone confirm if this works on 1.1.1 sim unlocked (& jailbroken) iphones?

2) does it have a fully working new google maps app?

thanks

Do you mind being more specific on:

Ringtones?
E-mail Passwords?
Passcode?
Wifi Passwords?
EDGE?

I've already tried upgrading to 1.1.3 but downgraded because of these.

Thanks

1- I get ERROR - PACKAGE DOWNLOAD FAILED when clicking on iJailBreakMobile 1.1.1
2- Does this work on Network Unlocked phones?
3- Do all apps work well on 1.1.3?
4- Does Google Maps still not work on other networks? (Locate Me does a decent job of it apart from showing a pushpin instead of a circle like the Google Maps)

I'd love to upgrade but first I need to be able to download the thing and second I want to make sure that it's worth it all.

Thanks!

There are huge issues with the Dev team's and Nate's releases (which this 'one step' release is based on) - just look at 't0sh forums and it is riddled with problems for 1.1.3 - it is a very unstable release and I know of at least 20 people personally who upgraded, had issues, and went back to 1.1.2.

Not disregarding all the hard work that has gone into these updates whatsoever - without it we wouldn't be where we are today - but be warned that this release is no where near as solid as previous releases - I would definitely wait until the SDK comes out to see how it affects the current batch of jailbreaks. (and what tricks both Apple and the Dev team have up their sleeves....)

I did Dev team update (tutorial on modmyifone.com) and work perfectly for me. Everything working, including Google Maps Locate Me and Installer.

Just pay attention to every detail they say and read the whole foruns, and be patient. I even did twice and both were successful! People complaining is because they don't read and do stuff quickly.

For me it is totally worth it, now I have my 1.1.3 unlock iphone with edit homescreen, tons of 3rd party apps and a pretty good pseudo GPS (the circle pointed exactly to my house!).

No complains, 100% awesome, thanks again dev team.

I have 1.1.2 sim unlocked with Anysim and of course Jailbroken.

If I try this out, well, has anyone? I generally don't trust 13 year olds, because I play Halo 3 a lot which is rated-M for Mature. Sneaky bastards. Don't worry, I didn't like myself until I turned 18.


What works, what doesn't?
From what I can tell this doesn't touch the baseband, so I should be fine, right?

I have used BossTools to move my fonts, programs and ringtones to the other partition on 1.1.2. Is that a problem with this upgrade.

Will the Google maps thing work?
Movie rentals?
From what I can tell, I would have to kiss SummerBoard Prefs and Customize goodbye?
How about my T-Zones? I think Boss has a fix for that right?

By the way, can I upgrade to 7.6 so that I can actually try out this movie rentals business? Is that safe for the phone? I'm on 7.5.

Well, you may not trust me because I am 13, but I can assure you that this works. Your symlinks will not be a problem with 1.1.3, simply run BossTool again and symlink again once you are on 1.1.3, and you can get all of your old Applications/Ringtones/etc back again :)

It won't touch the baseband, so any unlocks will stay in place :)
Movie Rentals will work from a 1.1.2 upgrade, although I can't guarantee that they will work if you are upgrading from 1.1.1. A patch for that will likely be out soon however.

Good work on the installer mate, but one big problem.

It seems that the iPhone has completed the process, but is now stuck on this screen which shows 2 things; the iPhone "usb" cable, and an arrow pointing to iTunes (which I assume would tell me to connect to iTunes)

I can't get past the damn thing. I read around and tried using iBrickr and typed in "iphoneinterface" from the command line but it doesn't seem to be able to pick up the iPhone when it is connected to the bay. Nor does iTunes for that matter. Any ideas?

edit: Did some more research. I did a few things and got it working to connect to the computer but iBrickr can't get to the boot screen. Looks like I am going to have to downgrade to 1.0.2 now. *sigh*

After about 3 minutes all I see is a bunch of code that says: upgrade var/root/media/1.1.3/1n: Permission Denied after each line and now it just stopped...should I restart? Did it not work?
My iPhone has been jailbroken at 1.1.1 for 2 months now and absolutely no problems...

OUCH :(
This is the reason why I am hesitant to upgrade..

I almost pull the trigger and then a small voice reminds me that nothing is wrong with my 1.1.1 phone and there isn't THAT much worth upgrading to in 1.1.3..

Good luck with your 1.0.2 and then 1.1.1 upgrade..

man, that sucks too... :(
Did you try powering off your phone and then back on again?

When you say "3 minutes", is that after it has downloaded the ~150mb file from Apple? or while it is downloading?

Hope you both get your problems sorted.

3 minutes after starting the ijailbreak app on my iPhone...the download of the app went smoothly, however, all I got was that error "Permission Denied" after each line...
I restarted and now when I run the app all I get is: Last login: Jan29 10:56 on tty0#
The phone seems to work as before...it just won't do the jailbreak...
weird...

Jan 29, 2008, 02:34 PM
Well...ran the app again and got pretty much the same results...
lots of "no such file or directory" and "Permission denied" errors and the last line reads "var/root/media/1.1.3/upgrade.sh: line 48: /var/root/media/1.1.3/reboot: Permission denied#

so what version of the software are you on now then?
has it messed up your phone?

can you just delete the installer file and leave it be? i mean.. stay on 1.1.1 jailbroken?

Still on 1.1.1 jailbroken, and everything works as it did before trying the ijailbreak mobile however, now when I go to uninstall in the installer, I do not see any of my installed apps...:eek:

Strange...otherwise everything including all of my 3rd party apps work just as before...
clearly the bugs are not out of this one yet...

Will JailBreak be needed after next month? I want to wait and see? If I can not use ssh in the next 60 days, I'll use use this hack stuff. I assume most of these programs that are available with JailBreak will be available when the SDK is out.

I, too, did everything the tutorial said - and ran into problems.

I did the suggested first step of letting iTunes upgrade my phone to standard 1.13 firmware (non jailbroken), so the baseband code would be upgraded. That part went fine (as you'd expect).

Then, I followed the steps to force iTunes to apply the older 1.11 firmware to the phone (I see where the instructions even tell you to apply it twice, which I assume is to ensure the whole thing is really written correctly over the top of your newer firmware.). Again, that went just as the instructions stated.

I went through all the steps to create new Safari bookmarks to prefs: and to the jailbreakme web page, etc. etc. But then, jailbreakme.com never seemed to work. My phone sat there for a good 10-15 minutes with a blank screen and never rebooted, once I told the site to install/run the app to crack it. I tried forcing a reboot and tried running jailbreakme on it a second time. Same result.

After that, my phone was in a totally screwed-up state, and I had to force it into recovery mode, and go back to the 1.13 firmware from iTunes to get it back to working condition.

So right now, I"m not too inclined to mess with it again. I can't be without a working phone if it gets bricked -- and the monkey-business needed to get to jailbreakme.com bothers me. When I first jailbroke 1.11, it was a much more straightforward (if complex) process, doing it all from SSH terminal prompt commands. But that's no option when you already have 1.13 baseband code in the phone, and rolling back a 1.11 firmware over it results in a barely functional phone.....

Anyone have any ideas on why this won't work on my 1.1.1 jailbroken phone?
I've had the phone since early October (it is a week 40 AT&T activated phone) and jailbroke it immediately with no problems...did not do the 1.1.2 upgrade or the 1.1.3...
After downloading the proper 1.1.1 program from installer I saw the iJailbreak icon on my spring board and proceeded to open it...
I then saw lots of command line text containing mostly "file does not exist", "file not found" and Permission denied" errors until the very last line said "1.1.3 reboot Permission Denied" with the keyboard open on the lower half of the display...
Upon closing the program I restarted the phone and again opened the iJailbreak program. This time it read only "Last login: Tue Jan 29 13:10:02 on ttyp0

:confused:
Any ideas as to wtf is going on? I did recently upgrade to the latest version of installer and BSD 2.0 if that is any help...

I had it jailbroken before but couldn't get summerboard to load from installer.app because it did not allow due to 1.1.3

So whats the secret to getting this done?

I believe the source is "http://ijailbreak.com/repo.plist"

As an update to my story, I decided to simply restore back to 1.0.2, clean it up, and go back to 1.1.1. I did so and to my surprise, was already unlocked. It seems that the installer to iJailbreak doesn't touch the baseband and fortunately makes for an easy revert back to your original firmware. Regardless, I had to jailbreak it again (which is easy). If Arix has an idea as to what went wrong, I would gladly appreciate it, but unless he updates with some good info, I'm afraid I am going to have to tell people to stay away from this if you're using an unlocked 1.1.1 iPhone.

Arix,
Glad to see you were able to get the website back up and running. Apparently no one imagined that your solution would be so popular. Well I got on last night, and did the upgrade, and KUDOS to Arix ( and those who helped get it up and out there!!)

I did want to add feedback. I noticed it took several attempts of restart to get the POD to actually start playing music with sound.
Also I noticed that trying to load up summerboard will not work because of update 1.1.3.

Is there a solution in the works to get summerboard 1.1.3 compatible?
Love the new apps, and the updater, and especially the updater cleanup.

Um, why is anyone even bothering? Is there really any reason to be risking the security of your devices (again) on a totally experimental hack when we're days of away from the first legitimate apps? and perhaps only a couple weeks from a plethora of such apps?

I had some issues moving from 1.1.1 straight to 1.1.3 as well. I had to downgrade back to 1.1.1, then move to 1.1.2, then re-unlock, and now i'm moving back to 1.1.3 w/ the mobile jailbreak install.

Originally, I had a fine and dandy 1.1.3 install, but some things just didn't work right - Ringtones, for example, made no noise! And my alarm would vibrate, but not make noise. I thought I had messed up the iPhone hardware, but after downgrading back to 1.1.1, all was restored.

From what I understand, moving straight from 1.1.1 uses the "Nate True" method whereas moving from 1.1.2 uses the "iPhone Dev Team" method. For me, at least, the Nate True method was very buggy - this install that i'm doing right now uses Arix's mobile jailbreak and since i'm on 1.1.2, it will use the iPhone Dev Team method. I'll report back in a few minutes as to whether or not my problems are now gone.

I followed the steps to upgrade from 1.1.1 to 1.1.3 on my jailbroken and unlocked phone and now all I see is the itunes and usb connect logo. What do I do next? I appreciate the help in advance...

UPDATE:: I had to download 1.1.1 firmware and do the unlock steps for jailbreakme.com to get it to work. Anyone know how to successfully update to 1.1.3? This method didn't work for me.

Not only is the kid a genius, he is a very generous genius. I remember when the iPhone was first hacked, I was a little surprised the kid was 17. Not only are these kids good, they are kind. My iPhone is the most awesome technological gadget I have owned. I have had a Mac since 1985, but the iPhone is super cool. I spend more then six months a year in foreign countries and if it were not for the work of these kids, I could not have an iPhone. If the installer is a little buggy, follow the recommended advice and slow down and read the instructions. All I can say to this kid is Thanks.

I was able to get it back to a working 1.1.1 -- I did AriX's method twice and got the same issues. Since there are so many ways to 'upgrade' the phone, i can see how things might not be universally compatible. Anyway, I'm going to try the wiki update method during a super bowl party where i'll have access to tons of geeks that can bail me out if need be!

1.1.2 otb phone, down to 1.1.1 jailbroken

Ok, what am I missing or doing wrong. Once I've done this

"To jailbreak, go into Installer.app, tap sources at the bottom right, then Edit at the top right, then Add at the top left, and add ijailbreak.com/repo.plist. Then, under the iJailBreakMobile category, choose the right upgrade package for you"

there are no packages to select, the only selection I can make is "more info" which takes me to the ijailbreak home page??

sorry, I'm a bit of a newb and wish I was 13 again:):):)

I couldn't get the ijailbreakmobile.com to workl from the 1.1.1 hack...I had to go to the 1.1.2 jailbreak then to the 1.1.3 from the JBMobile and then it worked great...
