Instructions for Unlocking Your Apple IPhone Version 1.1.2 using Windows

These are Windows instructions on how to Activate and Jailbreak an iPhone that was shipped with the 1.1.2 firmware (OTB, OOB, OTTB) and the 4.6 bootloader. These instructions do not unlock your iPhone to use on other carriers. They do however allow you to install applications and in general use your iPhone as an iPod touch.

If you are not sure if you have the 4.6 bootloader then check the serial number of the iPhone. If the 4th and 5th digits are 45 or higher then you have the new bootloader and cannot unlock. Follow this tutorial until an unlock is found. As soon as a software unlock is released I will post instructions so check back.


DOWNGRADE TO 1.1.1

For this you will need iBrickr 0.91, iTunes 7.5, and iPhone Firmware 1.1.1

- Update iTunes to get the latest version.

- Download iPhone Firmware 1.1.1 from: here

Step One
Connect your iPhone to your PC and launch iTunes

Step Two
Press and hold Home and Power button of your iPhone at the same time. Once the screen turns black, release the power button but keep on holding the Home button until Apple logo changes to the restore screen. Note: The screen may also just stay black. This is normal. Just hold the home button till iTunes detects the iPhone.

Step Three
iTunes will then detect an iPhone in restore mode.

Hold down the Shift key and click Restore.

A dialog window will appear asking you to select the firmware to restore to. Select the 1.1.1 firmware we downloaded earlier (iPhone1,1_1.1.1_3A109a_Restore.ipsw)

At the end of the restore you will get Error 1015. This is okay. Simply click the Ok button.

Another popup will appear telling you your iPhone is in recovery mode. Click the Ok button.

Click to select the Processes tab from the Windows Task Manager window.

You can now close Windows Task Manager by click the X at the top right of the window.

iBrickr will say Please wait while iBrickr tries to fix your phone.

The iPhone will reboot and display the Activate screen again!

Step Twenty Two
Scroll down to the bottom of the page and press Install AppSnapp.

Phone will return to activation screen, but don't panic, just wait. iPhone should automaticly restart after almost a minute. When the phone starts again, it should no longer say Slide to emergency, but rather Slide to Unlock. This means it was successfull!

I've had a few reports of the emergency slider not changing to the unlock slider. The best suggestion so far has been to keep the iPhone connected to the computer and make sure its detected in iTunes. Otherwise it seems to work if you retry installing AppSnapp till it works. Don't know what the issue is exactly (maybe a server load issue) but if it doesn't work immediately then try again.

TROUBLESHOOTING STEP 22 if you have problems here!

Here is a list of suggestions for those still having problems with the jailbreak server(Step 22). These suggestions have not been proven as it has always worked for me. However, they are still probably worth a try if the server is giving difficulty. If anyone has a suggestion to add then please let me know.
- Try to do a hard reset on the iPhone and try again
- Make sure you have a strong wireless signal
- Try the jailbreak with your iPhone still connected to the computer and iTunes
- Try using http://www.jailbreakme.com instead of http://jailbreakme.com
- Disable wireless encryption on your network
- Use a Wi-Fi connection without proxy
