The secret life of firmware 1.1.3

Hi,
I have a iphone, which had 3.9 - bootloader, i has unlocked the phone and updated to the 1.1.3. After that when i had launched installer, the phone restarted but it was locked" slide for emergency". But if i had put the my own sim i could see the network and msg's received. But could not go to home screen. So i had restored the ipod to 1.1.3.

Now if i try to downgrade it is not happening. Please Help.!!!!

SpringBoard needs custom launchd job management API

I'm no hacker, just a fangirl who likes to mod GUI...Anyone know if the change in preferences will allow a change to the graphics?
I know Steve's a bit touchy (no pun intended, honest) when it comes to people mucking about with their devices nice , shiny, interface. I'm skeptical that the SDK will allow for new fonts, colors, and icons..

The only thing I see keeping this from being the final SDK release is the calling of CoreAnimation by it's old name LayerKit in the 1.1.3 headers still. They changed LayerKit to CoreAnimation during the pre-release Leopard builds early in 2007. I really assume they'll make the name change for iPhone by the time the SDK hits to keep Apple's ADC documents in line and unified between the two platforms. Otherwise it looks like everything else is in place to make the SDK.

As long as its not iPhone hardware version 2.0 (or 1.1, you get my meaning) that runs all the good stuff.

No they won't allow untrusted apps since Steve hinted at SDK apps being signed (http://developer.apple.com/iphone/devcenter/third_party_apps.php). Therefore 1.1.3 is likely the new way the OS handles apps, however the signature implementation may be removed. They could easily require only signed apps to run in the future which would end all non-official third party apps from running.

Now if we could just get that official SDK - hell just give us the headers so we can see what the deal will be :) I've heard that Erica has got 1.1.3 handled but do we know for certain that our apps will be able to build and run on the iPhone using the headers that we already have access to?

It means the iPhone is going to finally be a computer in the useful sense, instead of an overpriced cell phone.

I'm going to wait for the SDK and at least one consumer phone running Android before buying anything, but its looking more and more like iPhones will become a viable product for people who actually want to be able to use their hardware to do what its capable of in the near future here.

I'm excited. In the next few weeks we are going to see whether the iPhone is going to go the way of Windows ME or the way of the MacBook.

It means Apple is preparing the iPhone's OS to run untrusted applications, like those that will be available when they release the SDK next month.

interesting....i wonder if the jailbreak will be necessary and how many support it after the sdk.
