Third iPhone 1.1.3 Jailbreak Upgrades Directly via Installer

If you've got an already jailbroken 1.1.1 or 1.1.2 iPhone, you can now upgrade directly via Installer.app—no connecting to Mac or PC required. The only caveat is that the process takes 45 minutes as it downloads the entire upgrade via Wi-Fi, so hook your phone up to an AC adapter before you start. Again, find it in installer.app on your jailbroken 1.1.2 iPhone. [Crunchgear ]

iPhone 1.1.3 Jailbreak is Here!

The iPhone 1.1.3 Jailbreak is here, courtesy of Nate True and the iPhone Dev team. It's a Windows-only download right now, but Nate tells us that they've got a Mac version coming soon and it "should be quick". Make sure you have more than 300MB free, otherwise Nate tells us that you might brick your phone during the update. Updated: Mac version's done and Lifehacker's got a walkthrough. More »

iPhone Dev Team's Working 1.1.1 Jailbreak Reopens Door to Apps and Unlocks

Just shortly after the first iPhone 1.1.1 jailbreak was released, the iPhone Dev Team follows up with a different method that can be incorporated into future graphical tools, unlike the previous one. While this one is still not quite ready for mass consumption since it still has the problem of having to use the iPHUC command line tool, it doesn't require you to swap your media directory in, so you can sync with iTunes immediately after you jailbreak. The important milestones reached by this release are the fact it actually activates your phone, and that the code for it is open so AppTapp and other developers can incorporate it into their own apps; thus eventually making it as easy to install third-party apps on 1.1.1 as it was on 1.0.2.

(WARNING: if you have used anySIM or iUnlock in your iPhone, don't upgrade to 1.1.1. You won't be able to apply this and you will brick your iPhone. Everyone else, including people who use TurboSIM or IPSF Paid solution, can do it.) [Official Jailbreak Download (Comes with Tutorial) - (Additional reporting by Jesús Díaz)]

Non Dev Team iPhone Firmware 1.1.1 Jailbreak Released (Verdict: Wait!)

Hackers not part of the official iPhone Dev Team have released an iPhone and iPod Touch jailbreak that's based upon the Safari TIFF image exploit we first saw a few days ago. There are a few major things wrong with it, which means this isn't exactly ready for normal people to use yet. We've been researching it all day, and have come to the conclusion that we can't recommend this jailbreak to anyone except people who recompile their kernel on the weekend for fun. More »
