[1.1.3] Jailbreak, Tell what you think

[jonnythefox]

HAVE YOUR SAY!!!


Should people use this 1.1.3 jailbreak released by Nate True?

Should people wait for offical 1.1.3 jailbreak by Dev Team?

Does the opportunity to upgrade to 1.1.3 using Nate True's jailbreak outweight
all the apparent problems people are having with this jailbreak release?

just thought i would post this thread to see what the overall community opinon is on this jailbreak

Thank You

Useless. Don't bother with it.

Unless I'm reading it wrong, it seems that Nate's JB and the one expected from the dev team are one and the same? The blog says that "nobody in the team agreed that Nate True would release it under his name".

Personally 1.1.3 adds absolutely nothing of any interest or value to me in terms of phone functionality. SMS to multiple contacts is already possible using a 3rd party app.
Still, it's been fun to jump on the bandwagon and begin sorting out the mail/edge/maps/apps/caller-id issues.

On a slightly different note, the iPhone lags miles behind even the cheapest pay-as-you-go handsets from more established manufacturers in terms of the basic GSM phone functions, and until Apple begins to add real phone functionality to the iPhone with their software releases rather than concentrate on how they can make more money from iTunes downloads then my iPhone will remain a nice-to-have novelty device, and my real phone a Nokia.

interesting topic although i think this is the wrong place to start it. this belongs in the general forum.

but anyway, this release of 1.1.3 is giving ppl lots of problems so i would suggest you update when the dev team releases their "legal" copy of the jailbreak. that release might fix all of the things that don't work.

Zibri's latest blog entry (here http://zibree.blogspot.com/) seems to imply that Nate's release is the same as the dev teams widely anticipated and so-called 'legal' release. Or am I reading it wrong?

Frankly I do not know if there is any difference between Dev Team's JB and Nate's JB, but I do see more problems with this (Nate) soft upgrade.

I did upgraded successfully to the 'soft' 1.1.3, but I see more crashes and freezing of the phone then the 1.1.2 that I used to have. I believe that 1.1.3 will probably works very well under it's 4.03.14G BB than the 4.02.13G BB that our 1.1.2 have...

Just a few cents of my honest opinion.

Personally I couldn't care less about the 1.1.3 JB. 1.1.3 doesn't come with any new features, and now all the threads and posts about 1.1.3 problems doesn't encourage me to update / JB 1.1.3 either.

Still I can see why the JB was released: Public pressure...

All that bitching from lots of people to release the JB. Quite understandable that someone (Nate) finally released it.

Still imho the dev team did a bad job from the PR point of view. They just should've told the public that currently the JB is too error-prone to release and not that they want to wait until the SDK released.

People would've understood that waiting for a polished product is worth it.

So should people use "Nates" JB (rather the JB released by Nate).

Well itseveryones personal decission, but don't bitch around if things aren't working for you.

I will wait for the JB to become safer and till then stay at 1.1.1

I updated from 1.0.2, everything is goof except two things, and i am hoping maybe fixes are out there and i just havent found them yet, or will be out soon. 1. is adding my own ringtones, and 2. is changing my carrier logo. Neither is that big of a deal to me, and since i never used much of the third party apps i can't say much with that regard.

[Strayliight]

In short: No

The 1.1.3 sucks.
Lots of apps stops working & strange buggs.
There's no new features that doesn't already exist as apps.
It seriously f*cks with all international setings, so if your on another language pack, forget about it.

Where is the Dev Team's jailbreak?

[rellik]

I moved up to 1.1.3 yesterday. I haven't had any problems. For me it's been the easiest jailbreak so far (I jailbroke 1.1.1 before jailbreakme was released)

Thanks Nate!

[truehybridx]

well i think it was released in this extint.... "there you want this thing soo bad bitchy ppl, TAKE IT!!"
i think he did it just to shut ppl up and show them that its not fully ready yet.. but who know..... i went back down to 1.1.2 (pain in the butt) cuz i couldnt get anything to work lol

[hocekyboy415]

I think you guys should stop complaining on how bad it is and look how good it is...these guys (the dev team) jailbroke 1.1.3 in almost no time at all...then u all complained and made them release it early... dont complain

[Stewcp]

Firstly, credit to Nate and the team...

Well, I did upgrade, but sadly it was a little crash happy :(
Downgraded to 1.1.2 a few hours ago !!!

[ubik]

look at my signature to see the way of my fw.. ;)
i had 1.1.3 worked fine.. but.. for some reason i found its useless. the only cool thing is the moving icons around. but i'm waiting for a new release of this.

had hours to get back to 1.1.1 but now i'm on 1.1.1 back with all on it.. pretty nice again. ;)

Right on!...

1.1.3 works great for me. There were a couple of problems to fix, but not a big deal at all. I was previously running 1.1.2 with a legal AT&T SIM.

I posted my process and some more thoughts here:

Based on the rumors circulating, I wouldn't expect the "Official" jailbreak to be any better or more reliable than the one Nate released. It sounds like it'll be the same method, they'll just have some fixes for the problems we've seen so far built in plus whatever makes the release seem more legal from a copyright standpoint. Nate took a personal risk that the Dev team wasn't comfortable with and could be sued by Apple (technically). As an end user, you're just downloading some code that was copied from the firmware that comes free with the device you already have. It's not like you're downloading Windows XP on BitTorrent, you already own the iPhone and Apple has licenced you to run 1.1.3.
