iPhone 1.1.3 Jailbreak Released

Thursday January 24, 2008 3:15 pm PST by Arnold Kim
Cre.ations.net posted the first iPhone 1.1.3 jailbreak, allowing you to install unofficial 3rd party applications:

Here's how you do it:
- Start with a 1.1.1 or 1.1.2 jailbroken phone with Installer.app installed.
- Plug in your phone via USB to your computer.
- Download, extract, and run iBrickr Special 1.1.3 jailbreak edition (ibrickr.exe in the archive).
- iBrickr will determine what firmware you are running on your phone and make sure you can run the update.
- iBrickr will then guide you through the process of obtaining and modifying the 1.1.3 firmware (make sure to read everything thoroughly).
- iBrickr will upload the new firmware image to your phone. Note that this only puts the file on your phone and does not modify it at all, yet.
- When iBrickr finishes (should take about 10 minutes), it will tell you to go to Installer and install the "1.1.3 soft upgrade" package. Do that.
- When the installer finishes (this should take another 10-15 minutes), your phone should reboot with a fresh activated 1.1.3 firmware.

too bad it's only for windows ATM :(

I'm personally going to wait a few days to hear wether stealthsim works with 1.1.3 (should, as its the same baseband)... However, im guessing they're goign to update again next month for the sdk and then end up tossing in a new baseband.. sigh :P

here's hoping os x tools will be out shortly and some tests in to hear if it works or not w piggybacking

EDIT: someone has posted that stealthsim works on a legitimitly activated 1.1.3 on the hackint0sh forum.. however, still goign to wait for numerous reports on jailbroken phones.. *crosses fingers*

I only have an iPod touch.... so no, I can't try it. But I am curious to find out some impressions from iPhone owners so I know what to expect. :)

I'm going to try this. Been waiting patiently on 1.1.1 but I have a few crashes on various apps and can't change my timezone from Beijing since that crashes back to Home screen also. Wish me luck :p

Why do I get the feeling that site will be a bit umm... slow for a while. ;)
I also noticed it's not for phones already running 1.1.3. :(

So, just to clarify - if you have a jailbroken, sim unlocked 1.1.1 phone - will this upgrade still allow you to use the phone? Or will the upgrade just turn the iphone into an expensive ipod touch until a sim unlock is released?
