Witticism tidings: Downgrading from iPhone 1.1.3 bricks your telecommunicate (restrictions apply)

If your iPhone has never been unbarred, downgrading from 1.1.3 will leave you bricked until you upgrade back to 1.1.3, as right as I can tell. The telecommunicate (even with an unquestionable AT&T SIM) reports an Wrong SIM spell iTunes says there's no SIM at no, when you've downgraded back to 1.1.1 or 1.1.2 (1.0.x young).

If your telecommunicate was unbarred, the baseband upgrade fails on 1.1.3, so you will not have this question but will not get 1.1.3 to work.

Obviously this Gregorian calendar month change once Edible fruit releases the firmware officially but I do not count that as prospective.

Boom! (Video recording is Hera!)

Change and uninstalling openiboot

It's actually slightly hard to use the "News Firmware" feature of iTunes with openiboot installed, so I updated openiboot with an uninstall facility.

I uploaded the binaries and manual necessity to news openiboot (and point uninstall it if you wish) to: http://www.iphone-dev.org/planetbeing/openiboot-uninstall.tar.gz

Sir, step away from the holder.

So, as awaited our friends the misfits have recently free the long anticipated 2.2 news. We can substantiate that this update SHOULD NOT be theoretical victimisation iTunes if you want the chance of a soft-unlock in the near future.

If you want to keep that derivative of a ‘soft-unlock in the near future’ easy but you want the new features of 2.2, you will be able-bodied to news to 2.2 victimisation a PwnageTool created trade ipsw file that disables the baseband news. You will be able-bodied to do this victimisation an updated turning of PwnageTool that will be free erstwhile soon.

Some facts -

• The 2.2 firmware for 3G contains a baseband news for the 3G iPhone
• The 2.2 firmware for 2G (1st information iPhones) doesn’t be a baseband news and the baseband is still at 04.05.04
• We disbelieve that our Pwnage proficiency (and therefore the Escape) isn’t unnatural, but PwnageTool and QuickPwn do not support this release as yet, so DO NOT instal 2.2 using iTunes as you will lose your jailbreak
• If you apply this news and you previously relied on PwnageTool or QuickPwn to modify your telecommunicate, it Gregorian calendar month transmute temporarily deactivated and unusable (until we release the new turning of PwnageTool or QuickPwn).
• PwnageTool and QuickPwn updates will be free as soon as possible that will allow a safe news way to 2.2 the release of these updates is fateful but not imminent, we square measure creating the modifications right nowadays and we requisite to put the new software system done the familiar experimentation process.
• If you apply this news and you have third-party (non AppStore) applications that you swear on they will stop working.
• 2G (1st information) iPhone users United Nations agency cannot act for the new PwnageTool or QuickPwn can safely “News” to 2.2 victimisation iTunes, this will preserve the extant energizing. However “restoring” to 2.2 victimisation iTunes will return the iPhone to the unactivated state. If you square measure in any mistrust just wait. NB: This deeds for 2G ONLY.
• The use of SIM-Proxies (small circuit boards/chips that sit underneath the SIM card) to provide GSM/UMTS service on your secured iPhone 3G is a performing that we have always advised against. Early reports convey that the 2.2 news disables the functionality of these inclination. The techniques old were always undependable and we square measure dumbfounded that they have lasted this long.
• We square measure not excavation on the 2nd generation iPod touch at the minute, so we cannot report on what the the 2.2 software system news Gregorian calendar month do to this general model

So, as always, if you square measure in any mistrust any gratify delay the instal of this firmware on any of your inclination until we have investigated the release in more than detail. Watch this space ;-)
