iPhone 1.1.2, what to do?
I'm a novice when it comes to this. I live in Norway and I have just bought a iPhone from eBay. I think the firmware is 1.1.2. I wanted to use the iPhone as a mobile phone of course and know this works fine when you have firmware 1.1.1
So my question is. When I get the iPhone and it's 1.1.2, is all I have to do to downgrade it to 1.1.1 and jailbreak + unlock it? Or should I be able to unlock the 1.1.2 to work with any sim-card?
What's the easiest solution, since I'm a novice?

I just want a simple answer that's why I made this post.
Sorry for my low knowledge about this

Did the phone come unlocked? Was it sealed in the box?

Yes, it did.

The you can't unlock it just yet. You have an expensive ipod touch until an unlocking solution comes out. You can downgrade to 1.1.1, jailbreak and activate it - use Winstaller or Carnaval to do this, but do not run anysim

What's the point in downgrading to 1.1.1 and perform jailbreak and activate it?

OK. Jailbreak and activate 1.1.2. I'm getting confused with other methods
EDIT: You need to downgrade to 1.1.1 so you can run Oktoprep, then upgrade again to 1.1.2Last edited by redcard; 11-21-2007 at 09:09 AM.

I meant, what are the benefits by jailbreak and activating it when I can't use it as a mobile phone?

Aha, I see! I need to do that to use it at all.
This sucks
I wanted a new mobile phone and I get this. How long do you think I have to wait before I can unlock the new 1.1.2?

Weeks, at a guess, there doesn't seem to be much progress at the moment
