To update or not
i was just wondering if i should update to 1.1.1 i have 1.0.2 running and was wondering if there was enough apps running/working etc. to update or should i wait for a little more progress to be made!
Any input is appreciated if you have updated to 1.1.1 and jailbroken your phone can you let us know if ,in your opinion, it is worth it also whats the biggest bummer besides summerboard not working!Last edited by robbpell; 10-13-2007 at 02:07 PM.

I'm waiting for the bugs to be worked out. I need my phone. =D
SummerBoard is working, along with almost all apps already out.
If you don't mind going through ALL the steps, then go for it, but if you'd like a GUI version, wait a little bit.

there is no reason to wait, as long as you follow the steps and give yourself some time and patients, there is currently zero reason to wait, because you will eventually update anyway. Its true that all the apps dont work yet, but for the most part they do. The update works and is well written out by unclear, as far as apps go, they will catch up and none of them are mission critical so. go for it!

arthur is right,
except we don't know if there will be another update that will break all of this again. As I said before, I'm staying on something I know works.

yeah minus a new update, but then again that will happen regardless. If we live in fear and wait, we will be living in fear forever
apple will continue to update this phone and stop us ... booo them

I am pondering the update, but my mind says theres no reason to:
-They state 1.1.1 has better volume, but alot of modders state same as 1.0.2, or we can increase volume by editting plist files. So no bigger
- 1 bar service fixed----not sure but 1 bar gets me failed call with 1.0.2, does thsi actually make 1 bar = 2 bars strrength visually or did they fix reception - no one really reported on this
- music store -- who cares and through edge very expensive
Its unclear why upgrading as its just using 1.1.1 firmware with 1.0.2 baseband, so 1.1.1 really not unlocked till its baseband is unlocked, which i beleive apple will check in future firmware for proper baseband for firmware.
I'm undecided, but from the tutorials looks doable by a newbie. But I'd rather have a reason to update rather than bogus claims of new features.
