How to Jailbreak and Update to 1.1.3 iPhone Firmware Using Windows

Posted January 24, 2008 at 4:37pm by iClarified
These are instructions on how to update your 1.1.2 Jailbroken iPhone to the 1.1.3 iPhone firmware using Windows.

Mac instructions can be found here:
How to Jailbreak and Update to 1.1.3 iPhone Firmware

I would like to note that Nate True has released this jailbreak by going rogue from the Dev Team. He is no longer a part of that team. This release is not supported by the Dev Team either. It might be a good idea to wait for the official release; however, for those who can't wait I have posted this tutorial. It clearly did work for me, though success seems to be varied. Its too bad that it happened this way.


What you need:
- Download iBrickr Special 1.1.3 Jailbreak Edition from: here

Step One
You must have a 1.1.1 or 1.1.2 jailbroken phone with Installer.app installed. If you need to know how to do this you can follow one of these tutorials:

Step Two

Step Three
Extract iBrickr 1.1.3 from the file(ibrickr-jb113.zip) we downloaded earlier.

Your iPhone will install the Soft Update package then reboot. This takes a few minutes.

At reboot I got a "This accessory is not mean to work with the iPhone message." After this disappeared I got a "Edit Home Screen" message. Click the Dismiss button and you will have SUCCESS!!!!

CLEANUP: You should delete the file that iBrickr copies over to your iPhone its 300+ Mb. I'll add instructions as soon as things get less hectic. For now the file is at: ./var/root/media/softupdate

NOTES*: I noticed that SSH is not working... To fix it I had to reinstall BSD Subsystem from Installer. Then I installed OpenSSH from Installer.

THANKS: Since I don't know everyone on the Dev Teams I am gonna borrow netkas' thank you. Props to everyone on the Dev Team, including (in no particular order): netkas, NerveGas, asap18, bgm, Bugout, bushing, chris_, dinopio, drudge, Fred_, gray, MuscleNerd, natetrue, pr3d4t0r, roxfan, Turbo, Zfstrike, np101137, pumpkin, dubeditions(PhilMugPH) and kroo, along with many contributors who wish to remain anonymous. And props to planetbeing, who was the first person with a 1.1.3 jailbroken iphone, and Zibri, by whom this method was largely developed. Additionally to Shaun Erickson, who packaged the Installer half of the upgrade, and runs most of the application packaging for the iPhone.

You and I must have different verison ipods. My problem is the exact opposite of yours. I WANT my podcasts to be sorted into their own playlists for each feed, but all I get when go to Music->Podcasts is a list of every single mp3 I've downloaded. It makes it impossible to use. IpodderX is still king.

If I update from 1.1.1 to 1.1.3, will all of my previous applications and contact list be erased?

Hey, for those of you who cant find the soft update to 1.1.3 then go to sources and add the iClarified source (http://installer.iClarified.com) then refresh the sources and go to the package iClarified and install the soft upgrade and jailbreak for 1.1.3. This worked fine for me took about 20mins but eventually upgraded. I havn't found any problems with it so far but if you get a syncing problem there is a package to fix this in the iClarified package list. ||||||||||||DO THIS AFTER THE PROCESS ABOVE (DO THE STEPS WITH iBRICKR AND THEN INSTALL THIS IF YOU CANNOT FIND 1.1.3 SOFT UPDATE IN SYTEM)|||||||||||||||||||||||||||\ Hope this works did for me. Good Luck :)

Same problem here. Everything went fine up to the ibrickr part. I cannot find 1.1.3 software upgrade in the installation list, even though I refreshed 1000 times.

I noticed the same problem, I only see the Official 113 Upgrade in the Installer, not the 113 Soft upgrade, or ... should I really use the Official one, since i was patched by iBrickr?

DO YOU HAVE PROBLEM WITH UPGRADING YOUR OTB iPHONE 1.1.3 AFTER YOU DOWNGRADE IT TO 1.1.1? HERE IS MY PERSONAL SOLUTION: 1- Downgrade the firmware: 2- Install the packages: Install the BSD Subsystem from system folder OktoPrep 3- Upgrading to 1.1.2: From iTunes press update with shift/option to select the firmware1.1.2 When its done will gives an error, and the iPhone in recovery mode. Go to iBrickr (old version) press Boot the phone The phone will start with 1.1.2 version screen Go to jailbreak, check the SSH and press jailbreak! When its done will show again the phone in recovery mode Go back to iBrickr again then Boot the phone and then it will restart to a 1.1.2 jail broken phone. 4- Upgrading to 1.1.3 Get the instruction from here: https://www.iclarified.com/611/how-to-officially-update-and-jailbreak-to-113-iphone-firmware-installer I WISH IT WORKED FOR YOU AND SOLVED THE PROBLEM. THANKS

Hey there, I have a 1.1.2 OTB from US..I jailbreaked it. Now i've upgraded it to 1.1.3 using DEV-team's ---iJailbreakMobile----through installer that goes automatic. U can make this happen by adding the source:http://ijailbreak.com/repo.plist. But my question is can i use stealthsim now that my phone is upgraded to 1.1.3???

Rodrigo - January 27, 2008 at 7:20pm
HELP!!! I have a 1.1.2 Iphone downgraded to 1.1.1 unblocked, I followed all the steps and no problem, then I erased the IBrickr archives using the Installer application to erase it and no problem, then I installed some apps and no problem, finally I installed BSD Subsystem from Installer and when the iphone Rebooted the problems begin. The Iphone don't stop to rebooting itself. What can I do?. Thanks Rodrigo

@Pessi you should buy a **sim or try H/W BL downgrade but it is risky process. when you will get your sim you should downgrade your 1.1.2 to 1.1.1 jailbeak, oktoprep and update to 1.1.2. jailbreak and then use this tutorial to make your phone work on 1.1.3 ;) @Irina you can use this tutorial. your phone will work after a update.
