It has definitely been an iPhone-friendly day on the interwebs. It was just a few hours ago that the iPhone 1.1.3 jailbreak was released to the public by Nate True (from cre.ations.net). However, this was a Windows-only version of the jailbreak; but Nate was working on a Mac version and has just released it! You can download the Mac version of the software from the cre.ations.net website. Please note that this jailbreak might be hazardous to your iPhone's health. Before you jailbreak your iPhone, be sure to backup in iTunes -- and as always, hacking your iPhone is completely at your own risk.

How did you make it work on the iPod touch? I tried running "Run_This" and it wouldn't let me go past the first step...

i have one question, i saw on the previous jb post about how to fix the locate me feature for at&t users but on the forum it said you already had to have the 1.1.3 baseband already. that is hardly a fix, that still means i have to update>downgrade>update>update. so is this information correct or incorrect?

yes, PLEASE answer kevanhloy's question. To get full 1.1.13 tech, do we need to upgrade, then downgrade first?

No, you don't have to upgrade first. For further information and questions about the jailbreak, please refer to Erica's 1.1.3 jailbreak posts: http://www.tuaw.com/2008/01/24/1-1-3-jailbreak-nears-release/

So here is a question for a lowly iphone version 1.0.2. user. Through what dark, unforgiving crevices of hell would I have to crawl through to get my phone up to a shiny unlocked 1.1.3. phone? :)

So it is still the consensus that updating is not smart due to the lack of software compatible with 113 ?

I get a "Main script execution failed" error message when I try and install the 1.1.3 soft upgrade package in Installer.app after I've uploaded the patched image to the phone - what gives?

I got that, too, but it seems like 1.1.3 installed fine. I bet it's the script to delete the 300MB image file which is what is failing. Also I noticed that I can't uninstall a lot of stuff I carried over from 1.1.2 (like OpenSSH) resulting in the same error.
Since I can't reinstall OpenSSH, I don't have SSH access to my iPhone, which really sucks. Also, not being able to use Google Maps Locate Me because of the unupdated baseband, and so far not being able to update just the baseband is also a bummer.

What you need to do is restart, then run it.

Chris said...
Well,
After the script execution fails, I'm still at 1.1.1 - I restarted the phone, just to be sure. No dice.
Guess I'll be waiting for the SDK after all...

Are you all running OSX or Windows? I m running OSX and when i downloaded the "Package Maker" the "Run_This" file had a .exe extension. How am i supposed to go about launching this?

OK very important question. I have a phone that was 1.1.2 out of the box, meaning it probably has the new 4.6 bootloader. I upgraded to 1.1.3 since I purchased the phone on the day this firmware came out.
Will this jailbreak work for me? I'm not interested in unlocking the phone because I have an AT&T contract and wish to remain that way. (I'm a Cellular One convert, they were purchased by AT&T--doesn't really matter, just adding.) I don't want to lose phone functionality as I've been reading about with downgrading from the 4.6 bootloader.
obey43 basically said the same thing, so I just wanted to chime in as well.

i got the mac version of this to work on an unlocked iphone (ipsf) on tmobile.
The only problem was activating edge. every time i tried to update the APN it crashed. what you need to do is after you run this update to 1.1.3 go to settings>general>reset and reset network settings. then you can enter your network apn and it will save it.
that is the only problem i've found so far.

Installing on OS X here. its been stuck on the "installing package" from installer.app for about 20 minutes now... starting to get nervous since it said 10-15 minutes... anyone else wanna post up how long it took them? Thanks.

Mine hung there for about 10 mins. I got impatient and did a hard reboot of the iPhone and I now have 1.1.3 with installer. :)
Looks like most the apps need to be uninstalled then reinstalled to show up on the new SpringBoard. Also... installer won't let me uninstall SummerBoard... if fails part way through the uninstall everytime.
