I plan on using the following instructions, but do not have wifi. I will be updating to 1.1.3 from a 1.0.2 anysim 1.1 unlocked iphone. Will I be able to get anysim 1.3 without wifi? Can I just use the unlock from the ziphone software? Thanks!

"Recommended way to go to 1.1.3

1) Put phone in DFU mode (blank iphone screen w/ NO usb cable icon). Try first using ZiPhone 2.3 advanced -d switch, before googling manual method to do this.
2) Use iTunes to Restore 1.1.3 firmware. (Takes a while, you are not frozen).
3) Quit iTunes, kill iTuneshelper process. (Using Mac 'Activity Monitor' if on Mac -- using ctl-alt-delete task manager if PC).
4) Power phone down and back up again.
5) Launch ZiPhone 2.3, select jailbreak and activate and go
6) Phone reboots, activated and jailbroken -- in about 50 seconds.
- If you were previously IPSF unlocked -- it is normal you have no signal yet.
7) Through Installer, add BSD subsystem, SSH and ZiPhone iBrickr Fix
8) Unlock:
- If previously IPSF unlocked, use putty, cyberduck, etc -- to SSH into the phone and put Signal.app into the /Applications directory. Then put signal.plist into launchdemons. [follow the readme in the Signal .zip package]
- Otherwise, Installer to put AnySim 1.1.3 on, turn on airplane mode, and run it to unlock
9) Power off, power on -- Signal! (Takes 3 seconds longer for IPSF signal.app to do its thing at power on, but no biggie...)
10) Launch iTunes, setup as new phone -- sync contacts & music back in. If you do a settings restore w/ iTunes, anticipate wierd problems -- like loss of sound, no youtube, mail crashing; etc.

- The reason we installed the ZiPhone iBrickr Fix -- is so that not only iBrickr but Independence will see the phone as having ACF2 file service available, and viewed by them as 'jailbroken' -- so you can move files in and out using those tools and not SSH if desired.

- IPSF users: If you don't want to put Signal.app/plist on the phone and wait the extra 3 seconds at bootup for signal to show; rumor has it you can actually install AnySim 1.1.3 instead on top of your previous IPSF unlock. Didn't try this myself, but sounds interesting... But, based on what we are seeing with Apple pre-targetting IPSF existence now in 4.3 bb -- our IPSF days may be over going forward, and an AnySim overlay required with each new firmware.

- If you are 1.1.2/1.1.3 out of the box -- you will have to throw a -b bootloader downgrade via ZiPhone in there after jailbreak/activate..to get your 4.6 bootloader down to 3.9 for unlockage; but that wasn't me -- so I cant advise on more detail than that."
