Jailbreak, Activate, Unlock and Customize iPhone 1.1.2 the Easy way (so far)!!
Well, now that 1.1.2 is released for quite some time now – why is the world not abuzz about upgrading to it? Mostly because – there is no reason to! Some say 1.1.2 sports better battery life while others say the iPhone performs faster (did it ever under perform?)!! For whatever reason, if you want to upgrade to the latest and still enjoy all the features (including unlock!!).Activating an iPhone 1.1.2 without iTunes is really a big deal because INdependence doesn’t support 1.1.2 yet and iDemocracy wasted some valuable hours due to poor or insufficent documentation! He did a great job with .Net F/W 3.5 but the app itself is too complicated – well Windows users have no other choice when it comes to 1.1.2.So, my current setup : iPhone 8GB, Cingular sim (no iPhone contract), Macbook (Leopard), 1.1.2 Jailbreak s/w from Conceited S/W, iTunes 7.4.2 and lots of patience 
- Assuming your iPhone is up and running on 1.1.1 with installer.app on it. Not on 1.1.1 yet, check this fastest guide now!
- (If you unlocked your iPhone using anySIM, please Virginize your iPhone before updating. It can easily be done by using unlocking tools from i.unlock.no. Just hit virginize for your firmware).
- Now, install OktoPrep under Tweaks 1.1.1 section in installer.app to prepare your iPhone to 1.1.2.
- Now update your iPhone to 1.1.2 from iTunes as usual. Don’t hit Restore, hit update instead
Don’t worry about any errors it spits out. If update fails, just see if your iPhone still has firmware 1.1.1 and OktoPrep installed (Very Imp). Then proceed with update from iTunes. (It should work this time). - If your iPhone is still shown in Restore mode, then launch iNdependence 1.2.5 to kick the iPhone out of it.Your iPhone is updated to 1.1.2 if your iPhone shows the new activation screen with Emergency calls slider written in 3 different languages.
- Now comes the Jailbreak step which was complicated till now. Not anymore. Conceited Software made it so easy with the latest release of jailbreak software. All you have to do is launch jailbreak.jar and relax! Follow the on-screen instructions (Reboot the iPhone when told and voila : Your iPhone is activated!!). There is a Windows.bat(present in the jailbreak software you downloaded before) for Windows users which I didn’t try.
- Now that your iPhone is activated, time to unlock it. You already have installer.app showing if you came this far. You can unlock your iPhone using iphone-elite’s version of anySIM.
- As far as customization is concerned, we already have installer.app and almost all the apps are reported to be working just fine with 1.1.2 (Customize has an option for 1.1.2 inbuilt). There you go, comment in case of jubiliant victories/failures
p.s : I spent long hours figuring out the right procedures for activation and stuff but my aim is to save others from wasting their time!! Please support Conceited software and iPhone Devs to continue this journey
Didn’t work for me unfortunately.
After running the latest anySIM, I got the endless reboot screen and could not get out of it.
Back to 1.0.2, then 1.1.1 then I’ll leave it there until a concrete solution appears!
Please tell me if this works for an iphone that has preinstaled the version 1.1.2 can you help me

Well, it is by far the easiest method known! U have to wait for an easier way
IDemocracy is not suggested btb…
Is it just me or has theres till not been a way discovered for unlocking a 1.1.2 factory shipped iPhone? The current processes do not work on the newest bootloader and I haven't seen any news about a new process.
Thanks,
-b.
well yeah, I heard the same. The best bet is to wait till the hackers crack the new bootloader. Will confirm soon
This is the way to unlock the iphone 1.1.1 upgraded into 1.1.2. Do you know how to unlock the one 1.1.2 out of box. I have just bought this in the last Friday, omg … the 1.1.2 which currently impossible to unlock.
An out of the box 1.1.2 hack is not yet published due to a different bootloader. It should be released soon though! I understand the pain in having a new iPhone and not being able to use it. But it definitely is worth the wait
Preinstalled 1.1.2 iPhones are yet to be jailbroken : pl hold on before trying out new things!
Hi all ,
I have a few general enquiries. I owned this iphone of mine which is of version 1.0.2. And it’s unlocked.
I am contemplating of upgrading to it latest firmware of V1.1.1 or V.1.1.2. However, I am not sure whether my iphone baseband is corrupted. Is there a way to check ? Also, with does the above-mentioned software unlocks V1.1.2 before i can upgrade it to that version. Meaning it does the unlocking stuff at my current V1.0.2 , hence upgrading it to V1.1.2 allows me to use it instantly . Does it work that way ? I am really confused. I hope you all could help.
I am newbie in jailbreak and revelant softwares for unlocking. Maybe you guys can provide some site references for an idiot like me
I look forward to your reply
Thank you
Kind Regards,
Jeremy
@ Jeremy :: You can restore the baseband firmware to wipe the changes made by the unlock soultion (anySIM) by using oneSIM or Virginizer under Unlocking tools in installer.app
So u need not worry if it is completely wiped cos’ the program will let you know if it was successful in doing so 
Once you follow the virginizing of baseband firmware process, you can go ahead with upgrading to 1.1.2 and unlocking it. Jus following this post and the previous post (1.1.1). You are all set
Gee I hate all those websites that don’t know how to use english properly! I see heaps of sites claiming to unlock iPhone 1.1.2. Bullshit!!! No such thing, as of yet!!! What you’re trying to say is that you’ve unlocked firmware 1.1.2. Get it??????? I have an iPhone 1.1.2 and it is a brick. Got it!!!! The boot-loader on this f^&*(r needs to be cracked! Over and out!
And don’t you dare pick on my own English, where I didn’t use a capital for English. At least you got my f&**(^g point!!

Any advice for a recently bought iphone with 1.1.2 firmware ?
Hi everyone,
If you want to follow up on the iPhone dev team’s progress on cracking the new bootloader, you can do so by visiting their website: http://iphone.fiveforty.net/wiki/index.php?title=Main_Page
Once the top right part turns green from yellow, you know they cracked it!
Also, if you have an iPhone, and can’t wait to unlock it until the next software hack, you can do a hardware hack, which requires you to use a special SIM (ie TurboSIM, stealthSIM, etc.) card, and reshaping your own SIM by cutting out a small piece and using the two SIMs together. I have read many success reports on OTB (preloaded 1.1.2) iPhones. The only issue with this method is, those special SIMs are way too expensive ($89+), you can google it and get quite a few sites selling this hardware.
I personally am going to wait until there is a safe and quick way to software unlock the 1.1.2 OTB iPhone. I have also read in many forums that the next firmware 1.1.3 would be much easier to unlock, again, that’s only a rumor. Hope this helps…
Ralph,
1.02 to 1.1.2 is simple, check out the wiki guide or google it. If you follow all the instructions *completely* then everything should work. If it's not working then you aren't doing it right. Good luck!

What is the latest update about the unlocking iPhone ver 1.1.2
hey admin
I Finally got my iPhone, I followed everything above, I got to the part where I install the Oktoprep, i successfully installed and i got that special message, where it was prepared to UPDATE to 1.1.2, I updated via iTunes yes, UPDATE, not RESTORED, when I UPDATED the iphone to 1.1.2 I got the picture with the wire saying slide for emergency in 4 languages (including English). I ran Jailbreak.jar and when I click JAILBREAK, it says that it does not find my iphone connected…..but going back to that picture, should I see the picture of the world for activating or the wire that I am seeing now? Why did that happen, did I do something wrong? Or is there something wrong with the OKTOPREP patch file???? please respond, thanks a million admin…!!!
2 weeks ago I bought Iphone 1.1.2 in US…i able to unlock the phone but not the sim lock….
Using Windows base…
1.Downgrade to 1.1.1 (require ITune – I’m using 7.5)
2.Launch Ibrickr (launch from PC with iphone connected to PC)
3.Install AppSnap (require Wifi connection)
4.Install Oktoprep (require Wifi connection)
5.Upgrade to 1.1.2 (require ITune – I’m using 7.5)
6.Jailbreak 1.1.2 (can use jailbreak.jar – require Java(launch from PC with iphone connected to PC))
ps. this is just summary how to get it done; after I gone through so many procedures that I got from websites. More details & getting the softwares just google it.
admin please reply i finally got my iphone jailbroken, im running 1.1.2 now, but my only problem is that i cant seem to get youtube to work, nor wifi itunes youtube says that it cannot connect to youtube and itunes says that i must be on a wifi network to connect to itunes. What happened? Is oktoprep for 1.1.2 not working? Please respond it is highly important that you reply thank you very much!!!!!
@ Amart :Hey Amart, congratulations!! May I know if it is OTB 1.1.2 or not??
thanks for responding admin u r very much appreciated i am currently typing from my iphone and the answer to your question is yes,my iphone is otb 1.1.2 and i did downgrade to 1.1.1 jailbroke it, installed Oktoprep from apptap and UPDATED tp 1.1.2 jailbroke that using jailbreak.jar like stated above. Jailbreak was a success, att and cingular sims work but obviously not any other sims. Now that i have a successfully jailbroken iphone with this process, youtube does not work and neither does wifi itunes store. Any idea whats wrong? Your help is very appreciated and im looking forward to your response!
hey admin or anyone that can help, I have a 1.1.2 OTB iphone that i had unlocked by downgrading to 1.1.1 and using the “*#301#” method. The problem I’m having is that my att sim card will not work with it. It always says no service… is there something I skipped? Let me know! thanks in advance.
Man are you most of you people stupid. OTB 1.1.2 is NOT ABLE TO BE UNLOCKED YET! So quit asking about it!!
Let me repeat that:
If you’ve accidentally upgraded to 1.1.2 you can downgrade and unlock successfully. BUT if, when you bought your unit, it was 1.1.2 Out Of the Box (OTB), then you’re SOL. You can jailbreak the unit (different than unlocking it) and use it with limited functionality, but YOU CANNOT UNLOCK 1.1.2 OTB Units YET.
GOT THAT? Now kindly stop asking about it.
Gosh.
yeah but can you unlock a 1.1.2 OTB iPhone ?
i wana know differ in ver1.1.1 in 1.1.2
I have an otb iphone 1.1.2 and i used this website http://www.iphonesimfreer.com/jailbreak.html to downgrade to 1.1.1 and then jailbreak and upgrade to 1.1.2. so every thing is working except the actual unlock so the phone theres no way to unlock it yet right?
@ Ryan : Unfortunately there is no way to unlock OTB iPhones yet which is still due. The process in the link seems complicated though!! Anyways good luck and lets hope OTB unlock soon
Hey guyz!!! I purchased a OTB iphone with the new/ current 1.1.2 iphone software. It bites not having third party apps. and just a plain jane iphone. But never the less and numerous attempts of trial and error. I Jailbroke the iphone so i can have third party applications. Of course i have At&t service but i just wanted the applications to customize the phone the way i wanted. So for comfirmation the new software can be jailbroken. I know so cause i did it. Its great!!! peace out guyz!!
@ Paul : Congratulations! Actually you should have tried activating the iPhone without signing a contract!! You might have chosen a free phone first and then bought this iPhone if you wanted to sign a contract!! That will save some money
Anyways, I am happy for you!! We really like our iPhones!
i’ve had my iphone 1.1.2 otb since xmas, both my wife and i bought each other one (silly yes, but love makes you do silly things) still waiting for unlock for it though, but we got patience with seeing the cost of the turbosim and such, just wanted to say hi to everybody =] and see if anybody else has anything cool on their iphones that they recommend
@Pheak :: Hi! Sorry to hear that you have 2 iPhones without the phone functionality to test
I know how it feels… Hack to unlock OTB iPhones seems unlikely and I am currently reviewing the best SIMS to do it for all of us. It is complicated for now. I was bargaining with a chinese supplier for hyper sims – they agreed for $25 a piece for 100 pieces and that is too much for me to invest in 
Anyways, it is worth the wait, lets see what Jobs has in store for us in MacWorld…
are you telling us that Apple has managed to provide something that is NOT hackable?! (apart from the sim card method which is too much hassle).
I hope not. must confress I am disappointed this has taken this long and no hack avail.. but hey.. I never managed to come up with a hack so..
peace,
eric
hi admin,
just read on the iphone.unlock.no site that it is possible to unlock an otb 1.1.2 iphone using the hardware method. just wanted to conf if anyone has done it? and is it safe?
hoping that a software unlock for 1.1.2 OTB is out soon
@Eric : I guess no software unlock would sustain for long before it is closed by Apple cos’ I feel Apple is tryin hard to make sure ATT’s agreement is meaningful at the least,hence they are tightening the OS. SIM hack would be a better idea cos’ it is not so complicated…
@ Praveen : OTB 1.1.2 are tough to hack (s.w means). Only a sim hack for now, even 1.1.3
>On January 8th, 2008, admin said:
>@ Paul : Congratulations! Actually you should have tried >activating the iPhone without signing a contract!! You might >have chosen a free phone first and then bought this iPhone if >you wanted to sign a contract!! That will save some money
@ Admin: I don’t understand what you mean when you say “activate the iPhone without signing a contract.” Also, what do you mean by choosing a free phone and then buying an iPhone and signing a contract.
@ Confused : Activating without an iPhone contract means jailbreaking and activating with a Cingular/ATT SIMs.
If you are new to ATT and want to move to Cingular/ATT and not sign an iPhone contract, you can first get a free phone (the most expensive one out there), unlcoka nd sell it on eBay/Craigslist and then buy an iPhone and activate it!!
@ Kiran: Thanks, I have graduated to “not so” confused. To summarize, if you have an existing AT&T/Cingular account and you want to use your current Cingular/AT&T GSM sim, then you just need to jailbreak and activate without unlocking and then use the sim from the existing account. If you don’t have an AT&T account, then you can sign up for an AT&T account with a Blackberry or other expensive phone, getting that phone free or with some subsidizing rebate. Then, sell the Blackberry phone on eBay/Craigslist and use that money towards an iPhone (making the net cost of the iPhone less) and then activate the iPhone as usual, either normally through iTunes, or with the jailbreak and activate method (and use the sim that came with the Blackberry). Nifty idea to save some money. From other things I have read, the only downside of jailbreaking and activating and using the sim from the old phone is that you don’t get visual voicemail; the upside is no 2-year iPhone contract.
I have an iphone OTB 1.1.2 (04.02.13_G) and I know that theres no way to unlock it at this time but jailbrake is possible now but my question is that when I jailbrake it then have to downgrade it So would it be SAFE for iphone to upgrade it to 1.1.2 again and would everything work perfectly. Thanks..
@ moeez : Yep, it is absolutely fine!! I bought a 1.1.2 OTB just to test this and it works great
