Rumor: Apple using 1.1.2 internally

A blue-and-green birdy is tweeting in our ears, this time telling us that iPhones running 1.1.2 firmware have been spotted in the UK during Apple training sessions.

Is this good news or bad news for the hackers? Well, it's hard to tell but clearly if 1.1.2 is already in use, it hasn't been patched to handle the ongoing exploits that have been filling your RSS feeds the last few hours.

Thanks to "D".

I agree with all the comments about the people who should just skip over the messages they don't want to read. I myself was driven to this site because of possible forums and chats about the hacked iphone. I'm sure that the 250,0000 other hacked iphone users researched sites like this one as well. I currently have service with t-mobile and I'm extremely happy with their service, specially with how much I pay per month for what I get. None of the at&t plans come even close to matching what I currently have. This and other reasons make me want to get the iphone to then try to hack it. Does anyone have any suggestions on where I should start looking once I beging the process? or what I need to do it? I'm completely clueless as to the whole process. I know that you can't update them or they will relock and I know that if done wrong, one can brick the phone. Should I wait for this so called unlocked firmaware version said to be release for the french iphones?

Maybe they'll finally add 802.1X support so people at a college can actually use their iPhones and iPod Touches on campus.

Can't you guys just make a new site "The Unofficial iPhone Weblog". Cover the Apple stuff without all the hackery and paint jobs you can get for your iPhone. At the end of the day the iPhone is just a cell phone but Logic Studio is pure creativity.

@Daniel-

iPhone owner here. If you mainly use your phone for text/MMS, I wouldn't get an iPhone. It's fine for casual texting, but I really miss the ability to feel the buttons I text with. Texting under a desk in class is totally impossible with the iPhone.

@Alex . . . no, the iPhone you bought IS yours to do with what every you want . . . just don't expect Apple to support your hacked iPhone, you are on your own (with what ever fleeting support your fellow hackers can muster).

Erica,is there anyone who can confirm the difference between these to Modem Firmwares version 1.1.1? THIS IS THE POPULAR ANSWER:

04.02.04_G is an 1.1.1 original, direct from an Apple Shop.
04.01.13_G is an 1.1.1 update!

First Thing I did was to
1.)RESTORE IT TO 1.0.2 by downloading the v102 firmware
2.)connect to iTunes, ignored the prompt which says “update firmware”
3.)PRESS shift+click restore and select fw 1.0.2 to restore it.

so i how could i get this??–>04.01.13_G "is an 1.1.1 update!"

the iphone was out of the box and i never tried to unlock it before. I NEVER UPDATED. so im suppose to get this–-->>4.02.04_G is 1.1.1 "original, direct from an Apple Shop."

IM CONCERNED BECAUSE IT IS AN ISSUE THAT BY RESTORING TO 1.0.2 I GOT modem fw 04.01.13_G. (when i suppose to have 4.02.04_G)

or it is not an issue at all? as long as the hack is developed it will cover both perhaps??? ^-^

The comment from mingistech shows exactly why the hackers need to get their own site instead of hijacking this one.

This site used to be for everybody, now it's just for the hackers or whatever they call themselves. Why should regular and loyal readers have to dig through mountains of command line geekery to find the kind of posts that used to appear here as a matter of course?

TUAW, you could at least tell us if this is a pre-planned and permanent change in editorial direction, so we can all decide whether to stay or go. At the moment you're simply ignoring your readingship, which is just downright insulting.

Is there still an editor? Scott? Victor? C'mon guys, get a grip and let us know what's going on.

Re: DistortedLoop

Ur right it is pathetic.

I hope their whinning only drives more iPhone related stories. :)

I used to check TUAW about twice a day before they started keeping up with iPhone hacks.... now I visit about 10 times a day. This site provides the best in iPhone news by far.

Is it really that hard to skip over the stories that don't interest you.

This reminds me of the angry moms that want Howard Stern banned. If you don't like it.... skip it!
