GUYS IF YOU WANT TO ACTIVATE / JAILBREA & UNLOCK YOUR 1.1.2 & 1.1.3 OUT OF THE BOX IPHONE FOLLOW MY NEW TUTORIAL BY PRESSING HERE (http://www.hackint0sh.org/forum/showthread.php?t=28789)
This Tutorial is for newbies like me.
when i got my iphone i was lost , i didnt know what to do because there are TONS AND TONS OF INFO out there and various methods.
So i have decided to write this tutorial so that the newcomers follow this step by step.
So let me give you a very clear tutorial.
First Of all you need to check the week of production of your Iphone
you can find this on the back of your iphone in the SERIAL Number
You will have somehting like this : 7V745xxxxxx
the 45 means it was produced on the 45th week
Iphones from week 45 and above have the new Bootloader version 4.6 with the 1.1.2 Firmware which is unlockable without a TurboSim
You can also check the Modem Firmware version of your Iphone by doing the following.
1- Turn on your iphone, you will get "Slide for Emergency Call"
2- Slide and you will get the phone keypad
3- type *3001#12345#* and press CALL
3- Press on VERSIONS
If you have the version 04.02.12_G you are sure to have the bootloader version 4.6 which in unlockable without a TurboSim
What you can do now is downgrade your firmware 1.1.2 to a firmware 1.1.1, by doing that you can use every aspect of your iphone except all the functions that need a SIM card
I will explain to you how to proceed step by step to downgrade, activate and finally jailbreak your iphone
For those who dont know what each work means ...
DOWNGRADE : go from firmware 1.1.2 to firmware 1.1.1
ACTIVATE: Bypass the AT&T activation to have access to all the functions in the iphone
JAILBREAK: gives you the ability to install 3rd party applications on the iphone.
STEP 1 - DOWNLOAD NECESSARY FILES
First Download the apple 1.1.1 firmware file
http://appldnld.apple.com.edgesuite.net/content.info.apple.com/iPhone/061-3883.20070927.In76t/iPhone1,1_1.1.1_3A109a_Restore.ipsw
Second Download Ibrickr if you are using Windows or 1.1.2 jailbreak for Mac
Ibrickr : http://ibrickr.com/downloads/ibrickr_v0.91.zip
1.1.2 jailbreak : http://conceitedsoftware.com/iphone/1.1.2-jailbreak.zip
STEP 2 - DOWNGRADE FROM 1.1.2 TO 1.1.1
At this step if you dont have Itunes installed on your Computer please visit the apple website and download and install Itunes
- Next Plug your USB in your computer and in your iphone, Itunes will automatically open and give you an ACTIVATION page
-Now press the MENU BUTTON and THE POWER BUTTON at the same time and keep pressing them until Itunes tells you that it has detected that your Iphone is in recovery Mode, this could take something from 10 seconds to 30 seconds, so keep pressing both buttons until you get the message
- Once you get the message dismiss the warning message in Itunes (Itunes has detected .....) by pressing OK and now you have 2 options , the first is Search for Updates and the second, that we will use is RECOVER
BEFORE YOU PRESS ON THE RECOVER BUTTON YOU NEED TO PRESS YOUR SHIFT BUTTON IN WINDOWS (OPTIONS BUTTON IN MAC) AND THEN PRESS RECOVER
Now a "Browse your files" window will open, go and chose the firmware 1.1.1 file you have downloaded in step 1 and press open
now Itunes will start downgrading your iphone (this takes some time) and the downgrade process will end up with an error message 1013 or 1015 THIS IS VERY NORMAL
-Next if you are using Windows Open Ibrickr and chose the Option "Reboot my Iphone" to kick your Iphone out of the Recovery Mode
[(Don't forget to extract the iBrickr.rar files ontop a desktop folder)-edited by Number]
-ON MAC use iNdependence to kick the phone out of recovery mode http://independence.googlecode.com/
Now you iphone will restart and you will have an ACTIVATION PAGE on your iphone with the nice round WOrld image.
STEP3 - ACTIVATE AND JAILBREAK
Before you complete this part MAKE SURE that the AT&T Sim card is in your phone
Now, you are on the activation screen that says slide to make an emergency call, slide to get to the keypad and then do the following:
Dial *#307# and hit call
The iPhone will now start to ring itself, once it start to ring you have to erase *#307# by using the backslash button on your iphone and then type 0 and then CALL, the iphone will ring again and this time hit "Answer" then hit "Hold", the Phone will start to ring itself again, this time click "Decline".
Now on the screen you should be able to get to the contacts menu down the bottom, tap "Contacts" and then add a contact. Use the following instructions:
Add the Name "Testing" and tap save
Tap "Add URL" and type "prefs://1F" then tap save
Tap "Add URL" again and type "jailbreak.unlockthatiphone.com" then tap save
When this is done, tap "Save" again and it will take you to the contact page displaying the name "Test" and the two URLs you just added. Tap the "prefs://1F" URL and it will open the iPhone Settings page.
Tap "General" and Then "Auto-Lock", set it to "Never".
Go back to the settings page
From here, tap WiFi and Add your WiFi network and make sure you are connected to it
Now, hit the Menu button to go back to the Activation Screen, slide and dial the number 0, the iPhone will now ring itself again, tap answer, then hold, then decline just like before.
Now, hit contacts again and then Testing, this time go to the "jailbreak.unlockthatiphone.com" URL
Safari will open and loan the page, PRESS ON THE TOP OF THE SCREEN TO GET THE ADDRESS BAR AND CHANGE IT TO "http://jailbreakme.com" and hit GO when the page loads scroll to the bottom and click on "Install AppSnapp".
Safari will now close and your iPhone will now go back to the Activation Screen.
Once you get to the activation screen slide to get to the dial pad again and when you do this iPhone will restart by itself and thats it, your now Activated and JailBroken.
STEP4 - UPGRADE TO FIRMWARE 1.1.2 & ACTIVATE AND JAILBREAK
-Click on INSTALLER on your iphone (Blue Icon usually the last one)
If you are asked to update your Installer please do it (if you updated don't forget after the update installs press the HOME button, it will take you back to the SLIDE TO UNLOCK page )
-Now open your ITUNES on your PC or MAC and press on the name of your IPHONE in the left colum, this will take you to the page with UPDATE or RESTORE buttons
On your IPHONE clikc on INSTALLER and press on TWEAKS 1.1.1 and press and install Oktoprep, once it is installed it will give you a message on your iphone saying "YOUR PHONE IS NOW READY TO BE UPGRADED TO 1.1.2 ........" press OK and then press the HOME button and it will take you back to the SLIDE TO UNLOCK.
-Your ITUNES is still open on your PC or MAC now press UPDATE and ITUNES will update your iphone to FIRMWARE 1.1.2 and this time you will not get an error message like the last time when u downgraded to 1.1.1
If your iTunes has updated to 1.1.3, you need to press SHIFT + CLICK UPDATE (NOT RESTORE) and select the 1.1.2 firmware that you need to download before to your PC
When the Update is finished you will get a picture of a plug that will appear on your iPhone and you will have the page SLIDE TO UNLCOK but written in French
-Close ITUNES on your PC or MAC
-download and unzip 1.1.2 Jailbreak from here http://conceitedsoftware.com/iphone/1.1.2-jailbreak.zip
-In the Folder you will find the file jailbreak.jar Open it and press on JAILBREAK!
(IF JAILBREAK.JAR DOESNT OPEN UPDATE YOUR JAVA HERE (http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp)
This will take some time and at the end you will get a message that says "Your Phone will reboot a couple of times ...... "
Let your phone REBOOT a couple of time... And you will get back to the SLIDE to UNLOCK page
YOU ARE DONE !!!!
YOU HAVE AN ACTIVATED AND JAILBROKEN 1.1.2 IPHONE
NOW ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS GET A TURBOSIM AND START USING YOUR PHONE

that is correct. He forgot that part. Without it your phone will stay in recovery mode after downgrade I think

I had the same problem as you did two nights ago. I downgraded my 1.1.2 OOB to the 1.1.1 firmware and had no signal. I upgraded back to 1.1.2 and jailbreaked and the signal finally started coming in.

This is because your iPhone has a 1.1.2 baseband. If you want to use 1.1.1 you have to use 'BB Downgrader (1.1.2)' in the unlocking tools.

...
Now, hit contacts again and then Testing, this time go to the "http://jailbreakme.com" URL and scroll to the bottom and
click on "Install AppSnapp".
Up to here everything worked fine with me, but when I click on "Install AppSnapp", then the iPhone returns very quickly to the Activation screen, and apparently nothing has been installed, so I can't get rid of the Activation screen. I tried it several times, and, yes, unfortunately I have a 04.02.13_g.
What may be wrong? :confused:

You are wrong. If you were able to downgrade the baseband on a new OTB 1.1.2 iphone you'll be able to unlock it !!!! But the new bootloader won't allow you to downgrade it , this is the reason why OTB 1.1.2 are still unlockable. The method described in the post you mentioned only works with the 3.9 old bootloader.
My 2 cents,

Suddenly I got it working (don't know why), so my OTB 1.1.2/4.6 is now down to 1.1.1 and jailbreaken. I can use everything except the phone functions and will have to wait for a unlock software to be developed.
But in the meantime: Is there any way to get local languages (in my case German)? Or do I need for this to work to update to 1.1.2? And if yes, how could I do that without getting back into jail :confused:
Thanks for helping to get a newbie on track ;)

i'm yet to purchase but am thinking of purchasing and using as an ipod/touch until unlock comes so i can use on tmobile: question:
when you buy a new iphone, does it come with the at&t sim card even if you don't purchase an at&t phone plan (i ask b/c at the beginning of the one step it says MAKE SURE to insert att sim now)? pls verify - thx

That appears to be the case. I got mine from the US and executed the procedure given by the Threadstarter, and everything was fine. So obviously an ATT SIM card was included.
raffi007
12-06-2007, 07:38 PM
Yes all the phones purchased in the USA come with the AT&T sim
for those who want to Unlock their SIM the only solution for now remains TURBOSIM from Bladox.com, the turbosim is a sim card with a little electronic chip on it, you program the chip so that it makes the phone believe that there's a AT&T sim card in it and the phone will let you do phone calls with your own sim
The only thing is that you need to cut a small corner from your sim card so that you insert the Turbosim along with your own SIM card in your iphone
I think BLadox stopped selling TurboSim for now cause theyr received alooooooot of purchases in the past week, i have ordered mine and i will receive it in a couple of days, once i do i will post a detailed video on how to do this for newbies again :D Like me

I have already activated my iphone w/ att. So what do I need to change in the instructions to jailbreak my phone? I have done a search but still cannot get a firm grasp if the directions change for an already activated ATT phone.
Do I just need to download the 1.1.1 onto my macbook and start a restore?
Can I just put the jailbreakme url into my current configuration?
Will a subsequent restore bring it to 1.1.2 current status?
It is my only phone since I am backordered on a tmobile battery for 4 months now and do not want to lose comms.

Do I gather that this tutorial is designed only for those who wish to downgrade to 1.1.1, jailbreak, and stick with 1.1.1? What does that actually achieve?
Isn't it a logical progression to then upgrade to 1.1.2 and jailbreak that, as in the following tutorial?

hi guys. I have a question... I downgraded my 1.1.2 OOB 4.6BL to 1.1.1 and it seems successful. But when I verified *3001#12345#* , it says 04.02.13_G. I did choose iPhone1,1_1.1.1_3A109a_Restore.ipsw during the downgrade but I don't understand why it wasn't change to 04.01.13_G. Is it safe to proceed with the jailbreak and activation?
And by the way, I already seen the big blue earth at the center. Activate iPhone.... connect to iTunes...
Thanks in advance.

04.02.13_G is the modem firmware so that will never change
proceed with the activattion/jailbreak

Hi,
I have two OOB 1.1.2. phones and I've managed to jailbreak the first one without any problems. But I'm having problems with the second one...
I've tried to do everything according to guides but when I'm downgrading to the version 1.1.1 I don't get the error message 1015 at all... Instead of that I'm getting message that my restoring process was successful. After that when I check the firmware, phone tells me that I have the 1.1.1 version installed.
Can someone please help with this? Should I try to upgrade the phone back to the 1.1.2 and then downgrade again or what? With the first phone I received the error message normally and was able to jailbreak the phone.
I have tried to downgrade couple of times already but I'm getting the same "successful restore" info all the time.
Thanks in advance!
raffi007
12-08-2007, 12:25 AM
well if you are getting a successful message why dont you try and continu the process to see if you can activate and jailbreak it
DirectBrasil
12-08-2007, 02:14 AM
Probably, nothing to do with the Jailbreaking method...
ITunes just doens't recognize that I have two Outlook profiles and "grays" out the "Selected Groups" Option.
It says "all contacts". I don't want to sync everything I have...
I didn't try to sync because I'm afraid I'll have everything from my both profiles...
But thanks on your Jailbreaking instructions... It should be sticky in my opinion.

Hi All,

12-08-2007, 06:39 PM
oasis, I advise you to do what I just did, read all the pages from this thread and you'll understand ;).
I just bought an iphone too, and I was very sad to see that it's being difficult to downgrade version 1.1.2. At least I hope this jailbreak works, gonna try it later today, but it would be VERY nice if the full downgrade came out before Christmas :|.
Thank you all for the help you give us newbies :D.

Many thanks to you raffi007 !
You have made my day.. The steps are so easy to follow.
I am very disappointed when I received the iPhone 1.1.2 OTB, but luckily, I can still use it as an expensive iTouch.
I have just upgraded the the firmware back to 1.1.2 and realised that all my photos are still retained. It's really a good thing as I have not backup them yet.
Do note that all the others applications are gone, but not a prob. just need to spend some time to reinstall will do.
Thanks once again! Of course, not forgetting the Elite team for making it happen as well.

u will have to run the "windows.bat" file if you are using MS Windows. the jar is for MAC only. ;)
remember to select "install SSH" if you have not installed it before.
BTW, i will get a pop up message saying "Waiting for activation" once in a while. But this does not matter to me as the phone is still functional.
The sad thing now is that I am unable to type chinese now. it seem like the NativeCN does not work on the 1.1.2

I have also realised that the whole iPhone seem to response faster than before

Hi Guys i have found a fantastic application to backup all your contacts if you want to upgrade or downgrade your iphone one day
it's called funambol, you will find it in your INSTALLER , go in all packages and look for it there
you will have to go on Funambol's website and open an account , once done put your username and password in the application on your iphone and press Sync and tada all your contacts are stored online in ur account
so next time u need them u can sync them back to your phone
this is perfect because with outlook it's shitty

hiiiii every1,
i have a 1.1.2 OOTB iphone with 4.6 bootloader...
now, i have a doubt...plz clarify it...
as there is no unlock still available, can i temporarily use it as ipod touch (by this method) & when the unlock is available later in future, then is it possible to apply that unlock and fully use the iphone???
simply saying,
does the usage of my iphone as ipod until the release of 1.1.2 BL4.6 unlock, pose any problems in the future unlocking of my iphone???
plzzz ans me...
THANK U ALL IN ADVANCE... :) :)
&
shall i use the iphone as ipod temporarily for the time being (and wait for the 1.1.2 unlock to come in future for using SIM-based features)
OR
shall i opt for turbosim/supersim solutions???
which is safe & better???
PLZ GIVE UR VALUABLE ADVICES...
THANK U ALL FOR READING MY DOUBTS PATIENTLY... :) :)

i have one more problem now... The phone kept telling me that I am running out of memory.
But when I went into the "Settings" to check out on the disk space, it shows that i have 6.3GB..!
I will also show "Waiting for Activation" pop up once in a while. However, good thing is that there is an option to select "Dismiss"

For everyone, where WiFi is not working.
You can downgrade to 1.0.2 jailbreak with iBrickr or iDemocrazy(no wifi needed) and then install Oktoprep on 1.0.2 and then update directly on 1.1.2 no need for 1.1.1.
After that the normal procedure again.

I was thinking of getting my dad an iphone for Xmas but he already has cingular. don't want to get a new plan or anything and want to add 3rd party apps so by following this tutorial will he be able to use the phone fine? I have read that even with AT&T service ppl have not been able to use the new 1.1.2 phones after jailbreaking it, but if done right everything should work fine right?

& lastly,
does all the iphone features work with turbosim?
and if in future, if an 1.1.2 software unlock comes, can i shift over to that unlock?
plzzzz ans me.......

alright TrboSim is a Sim card that has a minature electrnic chipon it that you programm so that it makes ur iphone believe that u have an AT&T sim card in there and open the line for u
You can buy it from Bladox.com
it costs around 70euros with shiping so 110 US
You have to cut both the AT&T sim card that came with the Iphone and your own Sim card the one you want to use
its easily done with a sharp cutter
Everything works in the iphone with the TurboSIM all features work perfectly
and if in the future an unlock come out you can switch from yuor turbosim to the unlock, but i cant see why youwould want to do that coz once you install ur trubosim inside ur phone just forget about it and enjoy your phone lol

Hi,
After i am done with step4, (and i dont have stealthsim or turbosim etc.) can i still use all the features of the iphone that do not require a sim card?
Or do i have to keep at 1.1.1 until i get a stealthsim?

you can safely use it as an iTouch. In the worst case you can always restore the FW to its original status via iTunes.
shall i use the iphone as ipod temporarily for the time being (and wait for the 1.1.2 unlock to come in future for using SIM-based features)
OR
shall i opt for turbosim/supersim solutions???
up to you.
Personally I hate to have an expensive iTouch with camera sitting on my desk and will buy TurboSim as soon as the supply issues are fixed.
StealthSim is fine too.

I ordered an iphone on 11th and it's still shipping... I got the invoce though and my serial number is kinda weired... its a week 49 and first 3 digits are 857. Does that sound ok? or I am getting at 1.1.2 or... its even worse? 1.1.3 may be??
Another stupid question.... If I only activate and don't jailbrake. can I still use the Camera, Ipod and Wifi functionality? (Since jailbrake is only to enable iphone to install 3rd party apps.... )

Hello, I have a OOB 1.1.2 Iphone with AT&T service that I have currently been trying to downgrade activate and jailbreak. As I followed the steps shown I have successfully downgraded my phone from 1.1.2 to 1.1.1 however now i get no service, On the very last step of step 3 when after downloading installer app through the phone as soon as I select it it goes back to the earth/activation screen before the download is completed. Currently is on 1.1.1 but with no installerapp icon. Should restore and start all over again or can I just jailbreak it since its now on 1.1.1?
Thank you for any input in advance.

I've got the same unknown error while upgrading to 1.1.2. After this I also cannot do anything - nor restore neither update. THe only way is to boot with iBrikr, then, having iphone still connected to PC, reboot the latter and wait. When iTunes start automatically, iPhone goes to restore mode and then I can restore to clean 1.1.2 or "update" to 1.1.1. If I try to upgrade the jailbreaked 1.1.1 -> unknown error.
USB port changes, reboots and iTunes reinstallations - really enjoyed doing all this staff again and again. It never helps.

Everything seems to be working except for the you tube, on you tube I get an error saying "Cannot connect to YouTube".

I'm having trouble with this step on a PC running XP
Now press the MENU BUTTON and THE POWER BUTTON at the same time and keep pressing them until Itunes tells you that it has detected that your Iphone is in recovery Mode, this could take something from 10 seconds to 30 seconds, so keep pressing both buttons until you get the message
I'm confused about the menu button, is that the menu key on a mac keyboard?

No. The menu button is referred to the HOME button on iPhone. Nothing about
Mac or PC. :cool:

Hi everyone,
I'm having a problem upgrading my firmware to 1.1.2 from 1.1.1., because I accidentally missed this step: If you are asked to update your Installer please do it (if you updated don't forget after the update installs press the HOME button, it will take you back to the SLIDE TO UNLOCK page )
I don't think I hit the home button, and now that the installer is upgraded, I'm brought back to the full menu. When I tried clicking on the left button of iphone on itunes (under the update/restore page), nothing happens. I can't get the installer to recognize tweaks 1.1.1, so I can't prep to install. And I can't seem to uninstall the Installer so that maybe I could try to upgrade it again.
What should I do? Now I can't upgrade to 1.1.2...
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Hi,
I have a couple of small questions that may have big consequences when not done correctly.
1. Should I be running Itunes when I first run Ibrickr?:confused: ( cuz i read on one of the other threads ( http://hackint0sh.org/forum/showthread.php?t=15849 ) that i have to make sure im not running itunes when i first run INDependance?) I just wanted to check if it's the same thing with Ibrickr.
2. At the beginning of step 3 (where i have to dial *#307# and hit many buttons), should i be connected to my pc and running Itunes or should it be not connected to the pc?:confused:

For those of you having connection issues with jailbreak.jar on windows. Update your java prior to running it. Also, do not run the jailbreak.jar if you are on windows. Use the windows.bat and be patient, it will open up the jailbreak.jar and work just fine. The key is to update your java.
Update Java here (http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp)

i HAVE ADDED SOME INFO TO THE TUTORIAL IN RED, BY FOLLOWING THIS YOU WILL MAKE SURE THAT THE THE FIRST ADDRESS YOU USE TO OPEN SAFARI "jailbreak.unlockthatiphone.com" WILL USE THE TIFF EXPLOIT TO CRASH IT AND THEN WHEN YOU OPEN "http://jailbreakme.com" APPSNAPP WILL INSTALL FROM THE FIRST TIME

-ON MAC use iNdependence to kick the phone out of recovery mode http://independence.googlecode.com/
What do I select in independence to kick it out of recovery??
have the iphone connected
then make sure you quit itunes, then launch iNdependence and it should automatically kick it out of DFU mode, there will be a progress bar at the bottom left to tell you what it is doing.
it should take roughly 30 seconds to kick it out and then your iphone should be back to the activation screen !!!! (if your following the tutorial)
if it doesn't work make sure you have the newest version of iNdependence (1.3.1) and the newest version of itunes (7.5)

Hi to all of you!!!
I've got a really strange problem: I've got a US-iPhone with serial 7S741xxxxxx, which should mean it was built in week 41 - and therefore it should come with the firmware 1.1.1.
The iPhone was in the sealed original-packaging - and now here it comes: the firmware is 04.02.13_G! :confused:
Could this really be? It seems that I've got an iPhone which was built before week 45 and comes with firmware 1.1.2 OOB?
Damned!!!!! :eek:
Is there a chance that this iPhone is SIM-unlockable because it has the old bootloader or something else (I don't know enough about this!)? How can I check this?
The other strange problem is, that I can't connect to my WLAN! Even if I turn encryption totally off (no WEP/WPA/WPA2) I'm not able to open any URL using Safari :(
The iPhone shows the connection-sign - what am I missing?
I'm using the static IP 192.168.2.199, subnet-mask 255.255.255.0 and Router 192.168.2.1 - the other fields are left blank!

If you leaved the other field black that mean you don't have any dns set and thats why you Can't acces internet
try to input 192.168.2.1 as a dns or check on you router on the WAN tab you should see the DNS Ip adress..
You need dns to resole name
you can try to go on http://72.14.207.99 on you iphone (this is google's ip)
if it work that mean you have a dns problem

Why do i need to go to jailbreak.unlockthatiphone.com. What does that page do to the iphone?
How long lasts the installation of AppSnapp? My iphone go to that "Activate Iphone" screen 4-5 seconds after I have clicked on "Install AppSnap".

If you leaved the other field black that mean you don't have any dns set and thats why you Can't acces internet
try to input 192.168.2.1 as a dns or check on you router on the WAN tab you should see the DNS Ip adress..
You need dns to resole name
you can try to go on http://72.14.207.99 on you iphone (this is google's ip)
if it work that mean you have a dns problem
hope this help
Hey - this helped!!! Cool, now I've been able to jailbreak my iPhone... Thanks a lot!
But now I've got another problem: I want to know, which bootloader I have, and using Windows I should use puTTY for this.
But if I connect to my iPhone using puTTY, I can type in the username "root", but after this I'm not able anymore to type the password "alpine" in - nothing happens, when I type anything on my keyboard! puTTY doesn't react, the cursor within the puTTy-windows doesn't move and that's why I can't connect to my iPhone... :(
Do you know what may be wrong?
Best regards

now Itunes will start downgrading your iphone (this takes some time) and the downgrade process will end up with an error message 1013 or 1015 THIS IS VERY NORMAL
lol,
how can something be more (very) normal than normal?
nice guide though.

i just bought a used iphone from a friend with 1.1.2 I was wondering if i downgrade, jailbrake, activate, and upgrade back to 1.1.2 will I be able to use my sim card from a different normal att/cingular cellphone and have service with my iphone?? or do I have to purchase a turbo sim even to use att service (just not an iphone plan)??:confused:

thank you for this great tutorial and all the comments! it's a smooth ride for me until the part in step 3 when i try to connect to the jailbreak site via safari. my iphone won't connect, saying that 'safari can't open the page because it can't find the server'. the wifi connection seems set up fine, and i have tried countless times... -any thoughts? thanks a million!

Just FYI for those wanting to do this on a regularly activated 1.1.2 OOB iPhone -- it works!
The iTunes synchronization worked flawlessly. While attempting to upgrade to 1.1.2 again, iTunes asked whether or not to update the freshly-formatted phone to my old sync settings. I did it, continued on with the guide, and it worked! :)

Hi,
I just got an OTB 1.1.2 iPhone and tried this tutorial. I downgraded it and it worked perfectly, then I set up my Wi-Fi and it works, but when I try to install AppSnap from jailbreakme.com, it goes back to the screen really fast and then nothing, I waited more than 5 minutes and it never rebooted.
Then I saw some people had this problem and tried their solutions:
- Complete Reset
- Connected/Not Connected to itune while doing it
- Try more than 50 times
Still no success.
I would really appreciate if someone could help me out with this. Thanks alot!
UPDATE:
Finally worked out! ~100 times seems better;)
I downloaded the 1.1.1 file, but which one do I select when I do the Restore thing? None of them seem to work.. Please reply fast, I'm stuck here phone-less.

Alight folks.
Just a quick question, everything's going fine until I get to step 3, the part where it say's:
"From here, tap WiFi and Add your WiFi network and make sure you are connected to it"
Connected to what?
Here's what I get on my screen:
WiFi - On
Choose a network - Sky 07813 or other
Ask to join networks
The Sky07813 asks for a password
I then proceed to dial 0 and go through the answer, hold, decline routine but when I go to jailbreak.unlockthatiphone.com it says that safari cannot open because it cannot find the server?
Is this anything to do with the fact I'm running a US version with an AT+T sim and I'm based in the UK? Should I be using a UK sim?
Thanks in advance and keep up the great work all you tec-heads!

In 3rd step
Now, hit contacts again and then Testing, this time go to the "jailbreak.unlockthatiphone.com" URL
Safari will open and loan the page, PRESS ON THE TOP OF THE SCREEN TO GET THE ADDRESS BAR AND CHANGE IT TO "http://jailbreakme.com" and hit GO when the page loads scroll to the bottom and click on "Install AppSnapp".
Safari will now close and your iPhone will now
If you face a trouble in installing AppSnapp, you have to do it on IPHONE from a Wi_Fi with no proxy, if your network had a proxy it will not be installed. I did it my self and it works with the one without a proxy;)

For everyone, where WiFi is not working.
You can downgrade to 1.0.2 jailbreak with iBrickr or iDemocrazy(no wifi needed) and then install Oktoprep on 1.0.2 and then update directly on 1.1.2 no need for 1.1.1.
After that the normal procedure again.
Is there a tutorial for that?
thanks

I'm also trying to download from jailbreakme.com but keep getting the "safari can't access..." error message whatever page I go to - is this likely to be a DNS related issue ?

Thanx a lot to raffi007 for this superb and easy-to-follow tutorial!!! Also many thanx and respect to all of you who are contributing to the topic!!!
Those who have troubles with Safati not able to load web pages, I'd suggest to look at Wi-Fi settings, especially Router's IP address. In my case, my default router was down and I have to change it manually to another working one. You can do this tapping your "Wi-Fi settings"/"Static"/"Router".

As far as I know, you must have a sim card with no PIN lock to make this work.
As for the error you're getting with Safari, does the Wi-Fi you're connecting to assign you an IP Address?
You can see that from the WiFi settings, if not then you have to assign a static IP Address, Gateway & DNS.

You should be fine installing Oktoprep whenever you have wifi available and then upgrade to 1.1.2 when you get home. I think I installed Oktoprep around 2 weeks before I got the courage to upgrade.

First off, I want to say that I really appreciate the instructions here. They helped me. Thank you to everyone who put in work and time to make this easy.
Second, I have a suggestion for this turtorial. I didn't see anyone mention it here, but I have seen similar points. It was a bit confusing for me.
When you download a compressed file or archive in Safari, it automounts or unzips the file and gets rid of it (or sticks in a place that I couldn't find). Leaving you with a directory (folder) called 1,1.1 or something like that. That folder is useless. It's not clear in the tutorial that the iPhone is going to take that 1.1.1.ipsw.zip file and do the uncompressing along with everything else. I think it may help to add a note into the tutorial about this... y'know, for the people like me. :)
thanks

I gather this has to do a bit with the version that of Jailbreak you use in the process of upgrading from 1.1.1 -> 1.1.2, at least it's noted in the JB notes. You might try restoring your phone to 1.1.2, and doing the process again. I found myself going between about 3 different instruction sets. Make sure you're using the most recent JB.
See this other instruction set: http://www.hackint0sh.org/forum/showthread.php?t=15849

Thanks for the great tutorial - I was able to activate and jailbreak my week 50 iphone using it on my Mac.
There's a few bits of information that are missing or unclear - I was able to figure it out using a few other unlocking guides along with this one.
For one, I recieved error code 1602 during the 1.1.2 update. Apple says to simply reinstall itunes, I googled and found that other people said the same thing. I did reinstall itunes and it worked the second time around, other people on the internet said they've had to reinstall several times before it worked. Note that if you get the 1.1.2 error, you have to begin unlocking and activating from the very beginning.
I found iNdependence a little confusing as well as there's no "reboot" option. I started iNdependence and it didn't "find" my iphone, I unplugged the iphone from the computer and replugged it in and it found it. Then I just restarted the iphone manually and it worked.
A few times I'd go to jailbreakme.com and click on AppInstall and the iphone would go back to the lock screen very quickly - I kept trying (dialing through the numbers etc) and after the third time it finally worked. The guide says that after this, slide to go to the dial screen and the phone will reboot automatically, however whenever I did this the phone would not reboot - it would only reboot when I didn't slide.
When the 1.1.2 update finished, my phone did not go back to the "slide to unlock" screen, but rather the "slide of emergency" screen. I ran jailbreak and after several minutes and a few reboots the phone was activated and jailbroken.
Thanks for a great tutorial - I'm turbosimming this bad boy tomorrow and will then have a fully-functional iphone on a different network.
My only existing problems as of now are:
I cannot access youtube
I keep getting an annoying pop-up message saying something to the effect of "Waiting for Activation - This might take a while"

Thanks for a very detailed tutorial!! Easy to understand and get through all the steps.
Now I'm a happy owner of fully functional (apart from the phone part of cause; waiting for my 'stealth sim') purchased in US iPhone, from week 48, activated, jailbroken and
updated to 1.1.2 :D
One thing though gave me a little bit of a headache: first time I had downgraded to 1.1.1 the phone simply refused to get jailbroken neither with help of iNdependence (the iTunes couldn't connect to iPhone to downgrade it further to 1.0.2) nor via WiFi connection (Safari couldn't find the server). I guess that the error must have been lying in the 1.1.1 firmware itself. I upgraded the iPhone to 1.1.2 again, downloaded new 1.1.1 firmware from another server than the previous one, downgraded the firmware to that newdownloaded 1.1.1 version and then jailbroken the phone via WiFi. The rest was easy.
I hope it will help some newbies like myself to activate their precious iPhones.
Happy jailbreaking!

If i follow this tut then it is posible to use it as Phone here in the Netherlands?
Or is the firmware from the iPhone i will get soo new that is not posible too use it as iPod or Phone?
Hi!
Has anyone got anything to say about this http://stores.ebay.com/Store-oriental and their so called "TurboSIM" product?
I just bought one yesterday and still waiting for it to arrive. So I can say my opinion after few days.
I presume that they are not selling a genuine TurboSIM. But I strongly believe it'll do it's job because the seller has so bold collection on sale on Ebay.
What do you guys think? Bad purchase or not?

the only people who do Turbo Sim is Bladox. Sorry mate but i think you've been ripped off. Have a look here www.bladox.com
I am aware of the Bladox and the real TurboSim. Their shop has been "temporarily closed" for about 1,5 months and I'm tired of waiting.
We'll see if my purchase goes straight to waste.

STEP4 - UPGRADE TO FIRMWARE 1.1.2 & ACTIVATE AND JAILBREAK
-Click on INSTALLER on your iphone (Blue Icon usually the last one)
If you are asked to update your Installer please do it (if you updated don't forget after the update installs press the HOME button, it will take you back to the SLIDE TO UNLOCK page )
-Now open your ITUNES on your PC or MAC and press on the name of your IPHONE in the left colum, this will take you to the page with UPDATE or RESTORE buttons
On your IPHONE clikc on INSTALLER and press on TWEAKS 1.1.1 and press and install Oktoprep, once it is installed it will give you a message on your iphone saying "YOUR PHONE IS NOW READY TO BE UPGRADED TO 1.1.2 ........" press OK and then press the HOME button and it will take you back to the SLIDE TO UNLOCK.
-Your ITUNES is still open on your PC or MAC now press UPDATE and ITUNES will update your iphone to FIRMWARE 1.1.2 and this time you will not get an error message like the last time when u downgraded to 1.1.1
When the Update is finished you will get a picture of a plug that will appear on your iPhone and you will have the page SLIDE TO UNLCOK but written in French
-Close ITUNES on your PC or MAC
-download and unzip 1.1.2 Jailbreak from here http://conceitedsoftware.com/iphone/1.1.2-jailbreak.zip
-In the Folder you will find the file jailbreak.jar Open it and press on JAILBREAK!
(IF JAILBREAK.JAR DOESNT OPEN UPDATE YOUR JAVA HERE (http://www.java.com/en/download/manual.jsp)
This will take some time and at the end you will get a message that says "Your Phone will reboot a couple of times ...... "
Let your phone REBOOT a couple of time... And you will get back to the SLIDE to UNLOCK page
YOU ARE DONE !!!!
YOU HAVE AN ACTIVATED AND JAILBROKEN 1.1.2 IPHONE
NOW ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS GET A TURBOSIM AND START USING YOUR PHONE[/QUOTE]

After doing this and using TurboSIM, I'm using the iPhone with t-mobile. Everything works great, EXCEPT that when I type on the keyboard, a bit of the graphics look messed up when I hit each letter. The phone types perfectly in landscape mode in Safari, but not in the upright position.
Anyone else experience this after unlocking? Anyone have a fix? It's not a huge deal, every letter works, it's just aesthetics.

I got a new iphone and it's already activated with AT&T . I want to unlock it to put emulators and applications and stuff. according to this tutorial I believe I have a week 47 phone. And itunes tells me that it's software 1.1.2 .
Should I follow this guide step by step or will I crash at somepoint and render my phone useless ?
Thanks ahead of time ...

Yes, use this tutorial. You simply need to jailbreak your phone. You have to downgrade first in order to do so.
Your phone won't be rendered useless at all, if anything goes wrong the worst that will happen is that you have to plug your iphone into your computer and restore it.
Follow the tutorial step by step and you'll be able to do install the apps and emulators you want.

Disconnect your iphone then plug it back in. It'll work. Try a few times if it doesn't. I'd also go through all the posts in this thread because a lot of the problems you may encounter are probably covered in here somewhere.
Hay,
I have firmware 04.02.13_g and OOB 1.1.2, when i downgraded to 1.1.1 i got an error message (6) from itunes, when i tryed to use ibrickr to kick it out of recovery mode my screen turned green and now it is stuck in recovery mode.

i had the same issue and still have..
but the only way i found myself recovering from the green screen was simply removing the iphone from the cradle and powercycling it...
which it then rebooted back to normal.
but i noticed your specs are the same as mine... i cant seem to downgrade it to 1.1.1.
i place the iphone in recovery mode.. but when i shift/restore it.. and select the file. it doesnt do anything . im runing 7.4.1 itunes.. 7.5 doesnt work for me... gives me a error.
im so lost...
lol
and by the way , im a newbie at this... so please chime in... and help me!
thanks,
JOHN

I have now followed the whole process as described, but I get an error:( Of course;).
Iphone week 48.
Itunes 7.5
Windows Vista
My phone was working after downgrading/jailbreak/activate to 1.1.1.
After I installed Octoprep, i upgradet the software to 1.1.2 via itunes.
(before the update it started syncronizing all my outlook contacts/email/calendar)
After the download i ran the windows.bat file. My phone rebooted a few times, and I got the message that it had jailbroken successfully. When I click the home button I now see the activation screen for 1.1.2.
Any idea what I am doing wrong here? What should I try doing again?
Thank you

Everything went fine, until the part to update the iPhone back to 1.1.2
I've installed the OktoPrep, and did all that stuff, but when a click the update button, itunes gives me an error:
"The iPhone could not be restored. An error ocurred while reading from the device."
Can you guys help me?
And thanks for the guide!

I tried doing the whole thing over again and it worked. What I might have done wrong the first time was to run octoprep before I had opened iTunes, and I had chosen to syncronize my contacs.. Once I had iTunes open, and chose NOT to sync contacts it worked perfectly:)

Can anyone please help me, I have been trying my best to do this for the last 6weeks but I can't get it connected to my wifi ..... I am putting the correct password in, I have even changed my wifi password from my comp and tried it that way but to no avail it still won't accept the password and wont connect
Any one else had this problem, I nearly though it out the window tonight.
I have a Turbosim (style) on its way so need to get this bit sorted first.
I have 04.02.13_G
Any help much appreciated xxxx O i have checked the setting and I now have 1.1.1 like I should have at this point.

Check this out. On my WiFi network DHCP is turned OFF and my computers have dedicated IP in this local network. So when I first tried to connect iPhone it didn't work . Then I turned DHCP server ON and Iphone worked perfectly. Anyway, if you turn OFF DHCP, then you must dedicate an local IP address from your network. It is in network settings on your Iphone when you choose available network in range. And about password/encryption, turn this to OFF until you sort this thing with Iphone. You can always turn encryption ON later. It worked for me perfectly. I entered 128bit WEP key and all is working fine.

Thanx dxer, I can't take off my password for my router, only change it. Well if there is a way I have no idea how to do it, i have tried messing woth the settings.
My DHCP is off from what I can see in my settings...there are no detaisl filled in like ip adress and I cant add them ;(
It lets me add to the DNS setting only
So still no joy

It will be easier for you to temporarily (while you are in this Iphone activation procedure) turn encryiption to OFF. there must be an option in your router, search under wireless settings , and set encryption to none temporarily. Of course, save Key so you can restore it later with all encryption settings. For about DHCP server, again, temporarily, set it to ON, so you don't have to mess with this in your iPhone for now. Then just choose your network ID in iPhone and you are set to go, it must work.

Heh, real newbie here. I ordered a i-phone on e-bay and i was told it was a 1.1.1 version but when i received it i found it to be a 1.1.2 version by looking in the settings of the phone. Now he did activate it for a few weeks so it has been used but i live in canada and want to use it with rogers.....what the heck do i do? sorry for the complete ignorance. By the way it just says slide to unlock and then when i do it says no sim card...if that helps any.

Ta dxer, I disable the encryption which worked so my Iphone connected and I was able to complete that step.
Now onto getting a sim to work
I have re encrypted it so I still can't get it to connect, I have tried every password I have for this b**y wifi. Its ok to disable it but I can't use wifi on my laptop then as it won't connect....weird.
Think I will take a rest...I don't know what other password it wants !!!!!!!! grrr

i had some trouble, too, at first when i just finished jailbreaking my phone using this tutorial. but i figured it out after playing around with itunes for a while. what you have to do is click the iphone icon on the left under "devices". then you go to the "music" tab along the top. then put a check on sync music. you can adjust whether you want to sync all songs and playlists or just selected playlists. hope this helps!
happy jailbreaking and happy new year! ;)

Hi,
Thanks for the reply, I tried all those options... When I click on the Sync button, itunes freezes for a short while, the iPhone says it is synching for about 20 seconds and then it stops... nothing happens! No music on the iPhone, even tho I have 'Sync all songs' checked in the music tab option. Any other ideas??
Please Help!!

When logging onto the wifi connection, the password it needs is the WEP key, try it again a few times, eventually it should work... Good luck!
Hi!
Has anyone got anything to say about this http://stores.ebay.com/Store-oriental and their so called "TurboSIM" product?
I just bought one yesterday and still waiting for it to arrive. So I can say my opinion after few days.
I presume that they are not selling a genuine TurboSIM. But I strongly believe it'll do it's job because the seller has so bold collection on sale on Ebay.
What do you guys think? Bad purchase or not?
BAD PURCHASE!! Does not work! Can't make calls or recieve them. I have contacted the seller and waiting for reply.
Does anyone know when Bladox starts selling TurboSIM again?
HELP!!!!!
I have been trying to down grade over and over again, but i can't get it to restore mode at all. Itunes either goes to activation page and the iphone only shows emergency slide with itunes plug in pic
