Hi guys, if someone could take a moment to help me out it would be great. I just used this method to upgrade my jailbreaked 1,1,2 iphone and it got stuck at the updating screen for more than 5 hours. I did a reset and the phone rebooted in jailbreaked 1,1.3 mode. Unfortunately it now says "SIM LOCKED" on the top left hand corner. Any idea what to do now?

Not it is just fine.. The most imp piece of advise which is not mentioned above is that if your phone is stuck at the updating screen for more than 30 mins just reboot it and things wld work fine

I just updated to 1.1.3, and my installer application vanished. The phone was a 1.1.2 OTB, which I downgraded and then updated to 1.1.2. The update to 1.1.3 worked after failing once. The installer program remained when it failed and the phone was functional. Any ideas?

The wiggly icon aranger thing didn't work, which I thought was a nice feature, but everything else is working great (so far)! I've been playing around with it after the jailbreak for like 5 minutes. Thanks!!

I noticed after unlocking phone that safari and installer app was not working because i could not get on the edge network with t-mobile. I found that if you go to settings-general-network-edge and put in apn wap.voicestream.com and user name and password are guest. This works for TMOBILE with internet package....no adding roots or anything else....this worked on a 1.1.3 OTB after ziphone unlock!!!! Good luck

Hi Guys. Solution for all you ppl having problems with using yr installer. I have a 1.1.3 iphone freed with ziphone 2.3 - like many others I was having problems downloading thru Installer 3.0 even though I have a good wifi connection. This works for me so I cant guarantee it will work for everyone. First make sure you have a freed iphone. Then unlock and first go to Maps. open maps and click on Locate Me and wait until the program finds you. Then go to installer, click on Sources and click refresh. This procedure usually frees up my installer. somehow there seems to be a conflict between ziphone and Installer but somehow Maps seems to free Installer up. Important that first files to download are BSD subsystems and Community services. Whenever your installer gets sluggish just close the iphone and reboot it again and follow above procedure. I hope this helps - for me it works wonders and also remember you must REFRESH sources every time before downloading any other apps or files. Good Luck

Hi Ansh, Use the ibrick sofware (which was used for Jailbreaking 1.1.2 OTB version after downgrading to 1.1.1). You can find it on iclarified under the 1.1.2 jailbreak tutorial. It should help you to reboot your phone and come out of the recovery mode. Do not restore the phone through Itunes to 1.1.3. Thanks, Gaurav
