Any more updates on this?



Posted by: XanderMac

updates on what? Was it announced? Doubtful.



Posted by: XanderMac

I have to ask, what was mythical or secret about it anyway? Or do you mean as mythical as the t-mobile dash reboot loop fix?

engadget or gizmodo stated 3 days ago that 1.1.2 was being internally tested and is to be released in 4 days to the public. Being that these are news/rumor sites, this most likely is a rumor, but I am anxious to see this as a real thing.

In know, mine showed I had a dash I got rid of 6 months ago until I switched it last week. I was just being an a**hole; its starting out to be one of those weeks.

Sorry for being a jerk.

No, so I can sell the iPhone i got for free and buy a real groundbreaking pda instead. So tired of the limited features and overhyped interface that is really only good for a specific application and not really as good as alternative gui's out there that actually get the job done. Yes, i feel like being an a-mother******hole today too and b**** about this overpowered unbalanced phone. ty for listening.

Wow...I thought I was a little rude. FWIW, your iPhone you got for free is worth as much today as it will be the day that firmware update comes out. Whoever buys it can take advantage of the update after the fact, so you might as well sell it now and just stay away from this forum, with you hating apple so bad and all.

No joke, I was a little curt, this guy is just down right rude.

I apologized for being a smart*ss, this guy just goes off the handle.

Oh well, back to work....

Haven't the "rumor" sites been talking about 1.1.2 coming since like October 15th?

Edit: Correction 10/10/07

http://www.tuaw.com/2007/10/10/rumo...1-2-internally/

But if we keep guessing "Today's the day!" one day we'll be right.

this guy sounds like a bragging douchbag. notice how he needs to tell us that he got the iphone for free. he's just pissed off that nobody has yet asked him how he got it for free in this thread yet.

Its cool, cuz he he wears 'tight clubbin' pants'!

So, there is another thread that states its now going going to be nov 9th. Interesting the date is already being pushed back.

Hopefully someone has but this upgrade fw in the hands of the dev team, so they can start working on a crack now. Wouldn't that be swell if a crack was available d1 of the firmware release?

That would be the most awesome thing ever. And you sure know that they are gonna get hefty donations if that happens.

The only reason to actually jailbreak the new firmware will be to keep up to date with the hacking. Other than that, from the rumors, the firmware only adds international keyboard support and a fix to the jailbreaking methods, i.e. not worth it at all.

People should not focus on hacking this firmware, but rather find an easy way to downgrade to 1.1.1 and then use the previous hacks. Finding a new way to hack the new, useless, firmware will only make it harder as useful firmwares come out on the iPhone (3rd party support in february for example)

I remember reading a thread about a theoretical way you could get around future updates. Something like changing a directory name that the checksum looks for and that the secpack that comes with anysim or bbupdater virginizer would prevent anyone going from 1.1.1 to be deemed useless or locked for 1.1.2.

i dont want to sound old school but, wasnt the dev team supposed to release a gui 1click virginizer/jailbreak/unlocking for the 1.1.1 firmware???

i didnt see that going on. i simply think these guys have enough keeping up with apple.

but i hope i am wrong, because i would like to see a ''universal'' tool that will jailbreak and unlock the future firmwares with the existing tool.


Another thing also : i see a lot of people complaining about ''anysim''. i did mine with iunlocker. Are they the same soft??

What about the guys from iPhonesimfree ??? do u think they are a sub company from apple releasing future unlock process??

because they seem to keep up.

Yep - that coincides with the launch in the UK on O2. The UK phones ship with 1.1.2.
