Jailbroken 1.1.3 problems...

I just upgraded to the 1.1.3 firmware about an hour ago. And I've noticed there are some problems. Most of the 3rd party apps are not compatible with the new firmware. Customize will NOT install, nor will summerboard (which was the main reason i jailbroke my phone with the 1.1.2 firmware)
Also, with the jailbroken 1.1.3 firmware, the locater for google maps does not work.

Does anyone know a fix for this problem? or should I just restore the phone and re-upgrade to the new firmware with out jailbreaking it?

No fix for Customize or Summberboard. With any new FW you have to expect a little time for the app developers to update their software to be compatible with the new version. Locate in Google Maps doesnt work because the baseband was not updated, that is why your phone part still works. If they update the baseband you wouldnt have a working phone. If you install LocateMe from installer however that for some reason will enable Google Maps to work. Not sure why, it just does.

In many cases the FairPlay DRM doesn't work after updated, so purchased music or purchased ringtones (and probably even purchased videos) on it will fail to play. Even attempting to play them causes the audio to mute until tinkered with through settings or other types of playback.

Aurora, you may want to investigate BigBoss's repo's for installer.

sleepers.net/iphonerepo I have not upgraded to 1.1.3, but have read he has a fix to a majority of the bugs.

Good Luck

Did you try Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings? That has worked for some people. As well there is an Edge Fix on installer.

hey hey calm down about the customize and summerboard apps it will be coming out soon for 1.1.3

Posted by: bigmike20

Wow! with so many problems, I guess it doesn't worth jailbreaking 1.1.3
I rather wait for the SDK next month.

Is the problem with your EDGE related to not being able to even input an APN? Go into Settings and erase all contents and settings. Plug into iTunes and setup from your existing configuration. After this I was able to add EDGE settings. Email still won't hold a password though

Likely going to be a couple weeks for most popular apps to be 1.1.3 ready. Just hold on a bit. You can't be cutting edge and expect everything to be up to par with you. It's only been 2 days since the leak/release...whatever you want to call it.

the only problem I have is google maps my location does not work. Everything else is perfectly working, minus the apps that need updating.
Locateme installs fine but it crashes..

Posted by: usrbin

install either Navizon or Locate me, run it, that should fix the google map.
This is all being discussed in the iphone hacking and unlocking section of howard iphone forums

http://www.howardforums.com/forumdisplay.php?f=368

like most, i'm waiting for the official hack from the iphone dev team

You Need to install BSD subsystem, then Locateme will work fine. As will the locate feature on Google Maps

I have BSD Subsystem, and I tried both Locate Me and Navizone GPS both don't work..

Do you have an active EDGE connection, are you able to browse the web?

if you edit the /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemVersion.plist and change the 1.1.3 entry to 1.1.2, both summerboard and customize (and other apps)will install and work, somewhat...

with sb the only thing i can get working are the icons. no wallpaper or anything else it seems . also, be sure to download another theme, im using the unl0cked one, i couldnt get it any of the default themes it came with to work.

with customize, random things work, like wifi, edge icons, but others like dock background don't. as with summerboard, make sure you download another theme for it otherwise it customize just closes and opens and does nothing.

heres some threads to watch as far as 1.1.3 software compatibility and sb/customize go:

i updated from 1.1.1 to 1.1.3 now i am missing my games and voice recorder I kinds like that stuff, so I am trying to down grade to an earlier version like 1.1.2 and my phone freaks out in the middle of the down grade restore and goes into a black screen with a huge amount of super fast scroling text over the screen, I had to hooke the phone up to a different pc to restore it and now i am back at 1.1.3, any advice?

The only way to get FULL FUNCTIONAL 1.1.3, you MUST, word is MUST... go from 1.1.1 to 1.1.2, then upgrade to 1.1.3
----
I dd the same thing you did, and had exactly same problems as you did.
---
All got better, when I went back to 1.1.1, then upto 1.1.2, and then 1.1.3...
Just for your further info... here is a little summary what I had followed and copy/pasting it here

====
Here is my experience doing this on an iPhone Unlokced on 1.1.1 with AnySim 1.1 (you MUST upgrade to 1.1.2 and unlock via anysim 1.2.1u before going to 1.1.3 and this guide will help you backup your data and upgrade and remain unlocked)

- OK Downloaded iBrickr for 1.1.3 (link for PC) (link for Mac) I haven't done the mac version

1) Sync your iphone with iTunes (so you have a recent backup of your phone/contacts/data)
2) Restore it to 1.1.1 and Jailbreak with *#307# (you should still be unlcoked - but will erase all apps etc, this is good so you dont have to uninstall them in 1.1.3)
3) Install OKtoprep from installer
4) Shift+Upgrade to 1.1.2 (not restore)
5) Run Jailbreak.jar to jailbreak 1.1.2
6) Install BSD Subsystem from installer
7) Add - http://rep.frenchiphone.com or http://hacktheiphone.com/1.xml to installer sources
8) Install AnySim 1.2.1u (or download the app from the elite dev website and ssh/winscp, and copy it to applications with 0755 permissions) - NOT AnySIM 1.2p (make sure the name is correct)
9) Turn Airplane Mode ON in Settings
10) Set Auto Lock to Never in settings - General - Auto Lock
11) Run AnySim 1.2.1u (make sure airplane mode is ON and you see a plane in the status bar)
11) Reboot after Successful
12) Take Airplane mode off - Fully Working 1.1.2 - Uninstall/Remove Anysim
13) Run new Ibrickr for 1.1.3 Soft-Update (link for PC) (link for Mac)
14) Run 1.1.3 Soft-Update from Installer (make sure autolock is never and leave it)
15) Allow it to do its thing (it will reboot - even if it pops you back to the spring board leanve it)

You will now have 1.1.3 firmware with 1.1.2 baseband, jailbreaked unlocked and activated.

16) Go to setting and reset all settings. (if you need to - I didnt on my phone) - to fix edge and wifi settings if needed
17) Sync and enjoy
18) Use 1.1.3 SoftUpgrade Cleaner from Installer to remove the 300mb files ibrickr put on your phone
19) Add http://i.unlock.no to installer sources and run the youtube patch.
20) Fix caller ID:

[1.1.3] Patched AppSupport for CallerID Here!!!

noob question: is there ever going to be a way to jailbreak a current version of the iphone without going backwards and jailbreaking all previous version?

i just got mine a few days ago and quickly installed the 1.1.3 from itunes wihtout truly understanding how the jailbreak process works. if the SDK isn't promising when it comes out, i'd like to jailbreak my phone. but, it order to do that, i'd have to do a lot of work (go back to 1.1.1, jailbreak, go to 1.1.2, jailbreak, then go to 1.1.3, jailbreak). do you think the hacking team will ever find a way to jailbreak a current version as it sits?

just wondering.

I have 1.1.3 virgin. I downloaded 1.1.1 and when trying to restore, I get a blank white screen on my iPhone and it freezes at "preparing iPhone". Any ideas?

Thanks

Posted by: bigmike20

I feel the same way.I think it's too much to go through in order to jailbreak 1.1.3
Until they come out with something much simple, that doesn't require so many steps,I'll be just fine with my phone at 1.1.3

since i'm not a hacker/programmer, i just don't understand why you could jailbreak 1.1.1, but not 1.1.3 without going all the way back and jailbreaking your way on up. i'm confused.

i hope apple can make me happy with the SDK later this month 'cause after only a few days of owning my iphone, i'm already wanting more than web apps.

I think it's mostly because everytime the firmware changes, the JB method is different. Someone can always redo the whole thing and attempt to create a direct 1.1.3 JB. But why bother if a slight detour will do the job just as well. And of course, breaking the oldest firmware first must be the easiest, sicne it's least developed/fixed.

This is part laziness, part putting priority on expedience. It's more effective to just use whatever is already working than trying to reinvent the wheel every single time. I didn't do any of the work, so I'm jsut glad and appreciative of whoever actually did the hard labor to make this work at all. Kudos to the iPhone dev team. Especially for the 1.1.3 installer. I've never seen such a clean/elegant hacking solution before. It didn't even require a separate PC/mac to upgrade.

that makes sense. i guess the way i see it is this: as more and more people buy the phone (starting at 1.1.2 or 1.1.3) the less likely the newbies are to go through the trouble of going all the way back to 1.1.1 to jailbreak. if i had a version 1.1.1 phone or even 1.1.2, i might have tried this. but with 1.1.3 it's now looking too complicated.

AND, what about 1.1.4 and beyond? is the process for jailbreaking a 1.1.4 phone going to be going back to 1.1.1, jailbreak, go to 1.1.2, jailbreak, go to 1.1.3, jailbreak, go to 1.1.4 jailbreak...etc.? just wondering.

i LOVE that people have hacked this phone and though i'm probably now not going to jailbreak my iphone, judos to the dev team for figuring this stuff out. seeing it's possibilities is really cool. but sadly for people like myself, it's looking a bit too scary now with 1.1.3. that and i can't figure out what a bootloader or baseband is!

now if there was a way to just jailbreak 1.1.3, i'd be all over it. but the more i read, the more scared i am to go all the way back to 1.1.1 and start over.
