I can't press Pre 1.1.1 upgrade button !!
I did connect iPhone with USB cable and quite iTune and force quite iTune Helper.

Any idea guy?



UPDATE : I got it working !! besure that SSH is installed with iDependence, even though you might already have SSH installed.

my phone is activated through itunes and showing 1.1.1 as starting firmware however when I attempt to jailbreak the phone i'm being told to downgrade

[iNfEk]

here is the error I receive from 1.2.5 requesting me to downgrade when my phone is activated already

[iNfEk]

I was able to get my phone jailbroken through ijailbreak method and when opening up independence now it says jailbroken

I'm confused. Don't we need to downgrade to 1.02 before we can jailbreak a virgin 1.1.1 iphone?

If there was a program like this that just simply activated and/or unlocked the 1.1.1 iPhone fresh out of the box, in Windows, I would pay good money for it.

Same here I got this error when I'm trying to activate my virginized 1.1.1 phone.



Any idea what's wrong?

I have a virgin 1.1.1 phone that has never been modded. I posted my error when trying to use independence.

I used iJailbreak to jailbreak my phone withOUT having to downgrade.

Then I used independence to change my root password and used your favorite applications to start transfering files. You should be able to use independence afterwards since it recognizes it as jailbroken after iJailbreak was used. I just continued to get the error and cannot understand why we would constantly have to downgrade

First you must downgrade, virginize, upgrade, then come to this step...
You end up doing activation twice (once for 1.0.2 and once for 1.1.1).

Very nice guides guys! I helped me a lot!

So, even though I have a brand-new, out of the box virgin 1.1.1 iPhone... I have to
--> downgrade to 1.0.2.
--> unlock
--> re-upgrade to 1.1.1
--> unlock again...

Is that right? Are there other steps involved?
Thanks!

no. OOB 1.1.1 all you have to do is run ijailbreak program
