iBrickr: iPhone v1.1.3 Jailbreak (Windows)

iPhone World:

iPhone Dev Team and iPhone Elite Team have put their minds together and finally managed to release an iPhone firmware v1.1.3 jailbreak to the public, in the form of a new version of iBrickr.

To use this iPhone v1.1.3 jailbreak hack you will first need to have 1.1.2 or 1.1.1 jailbroked phone. Once your iPhone is ready for the above requirement, you will need the iBrickr image creator (It’s only available on Windows for now, sorry Mac users) which you can download directly here!

Then do the following:
- Plug in your phone via USB to your computer and run iBrickr.
- iBrickr will determine what firmware you are running on your phone and make sure you can run the update.
- iBrickr will then guide you through the process of obtaining and modifying the 1.1.3 firmware (make sure to read everything thoroughly).
- iBrickr will upload the new firmware image to your phone. Note that this only puts the file on your phone and does not modify it at all, yet.
- When iBrickr finishes (should take about 10 minutes), it will tell you to go to Installer and install the “1.1.3 soft upgrade” package. Do that.
- When the installer finishes (this should take another 10-15 minutes), your phone should reboot with a fresh activated 1.1.3 firmware.

There is also a way to get Google Maps Locations working with jailbroken 1.1.3:

*You must have a legal simcard (at&t, orange, o2,t-mobile)
*jailbreak it (see above).
*Then just replace /usr/libexec/lockdownd with original one, from 1.1.3
*Your phone will have Google Maps Locations working.

Now you may be wondering how this jailbreak works. Here is a breakdown:

- iBrickr grabs the 1.1.3 iPhone firmware image and extracts, decrypts, and decompresses the disk image.
- Then it applies a patch, jailbreaking the disk image and activating it, and installing Installer.app.
- It uploads this new modified image to the phone, as 113_upgrade_image.bin.
- The “1.1.3 soft upgrade” app flashes the phone with the image and reboots.
- You have a perfect, jailbroken, upgraded 1.1.3 phone, with all your settings and music intact!
